Ante-Nicene Fathers/Volume VIII/Apocrypha of the New Testament/Acts of Pilate: Second Greek Form/Chapter 6

Chapter 6.

And when Nicodemus had thus spoken, another Hebrew rose up, and said to Pilate:&#160; I beg of thee, my lord Pilate, hear me also.&#160; Pilate answered:&#160; Say what thou wishest.&#160; The Hebrew says:&#160; I lay sick in bed thirty-eight years; and when he saw me he was grieved, and said to me, Rise, take up thy couch, and go into thine house.&#160; And while he was saying the word to me, I rose and walked about.&#160; The Hebrews say:&#160; Ask him on what day of the week this happened.&#160; He says:&#160; On Sabbath. &#160; The Jews said:&#160; And consequently we say truly, that he does not keep the Sabbath.

Another, again, standing in the midst, said:&#160; I was born blind; and as Jesus was going along the road, I cried to him, saying, Have mercy upon me, Lord, thou son of David.&#160; And he took clay, and anointed mine eyes; and straightway I received my sight. &#160; Another said:&#160; I was crooked; and seeing him, I cried, Have mercy upon me, O Lord.&#160; And he took me by the hand, and I was immediately raised. &#160; Another said:&#160; I was a leper, and he healed me merely by a word.
