When they had been mourning four days, (then) Michael the archangel appeared and said

2to Seth: 'Man of God, mourn not for thy dead more than six days, for on the seventh day is the sign of the resurrection and the rest of the age to come; on the seventh day the Lord rested from all His works.'

3Thereupon Seth made the tables.
