1Three men came from Galilee to testify that they had seen Jesus taken up to heaven.
2They said: 'When we were going from Galilee to the Jordan, there came to meet us a great multitude of men dressed in white who had died some time ago.'
3'Among them we recognized Karinus and Leucius; and we approached and kissed one another.'
4'We asked: Tell us, brothers, what are this soul and this body, and how do you live in the body, since you died long ago?'
5'They answered: We rose from the underworld with Christ and He brought us out from among the dead.'
6'Know that from now on the gates of death and darkness are destroyed.'
7'The souls of the saints were taken from there and went up to heaven with Christ our Lord.'
