Gospel of Pseudo-Matthew 34

Infancy of Jesus

Chapter.

2Now Jesus was six years old, and His mother sent Him with a pitcher to the fountain to draw water with the children.

3And it came to pass, after He had drawn the water, that one of the children came against Him, and struck the pitcher, and broke it.

4But Jesus stretched out the cloak which He had on, and took up in His cloak as much water as there had been in the pitcher, and carried it to His mother.

5And when she saw it she wondered, and reflected within herself, and laid up all these things in her heart.
