Matrona wa Thesalonike

Matrona wa Thesalonike (pia: Matronya, Matruna, Madrona) alikuwa mwanamke Mkristo wa Thesalonike (Ugiriki) aliyefia dini yakehttp://www.santiebeati.it/dettaglio/47030This holy woman was handmaiden to a Jewish woman,  and she was a Christian even as her parents were Christians.  And that Jewish woman her mistress hated [Christianity], and she wished to make her maid abandon the Christian Religion, and to bring her over to the Jewish Faith, which she would not embrace.  For this reason she reviled Matronya and made her service heavy upon her.  One day Matronya followed her mistress the Jewish lady until she brought her to the Jewish synagogue, and Matronya turned aside and went into the holy church.  And when her mistress asked her, saying, “Why didst thou not come into my synagogue?”  The holy Matronya answered and said unto her, “God is very remote from thy synagogue, and how would it be seemly for me to enter therein?  But the place which is seemly for me to enter is the holy church, which our Lord Jesus Christ purchased with his precious blood.”  When he mistress heard these words she was wroth with her and beat her severely, and shut her up in a dark place wherein she remained for four days without food and drink; then the Jewess had her brought out from her prison and beat her cruelly with many, many stripes, and once again she sent her back into the prison, where she died.  And after her death her mistress took her body, and carried it up to the roof of her house, and according to what the men say who saw her, she cast it out, and it fell down by itself.  Now the mistress of Matronya was afraid of the Government, and alarmed lest they should examine her about her murder.  And the wrath of God fell upon that Jewish woman, and as she was coming down from the roof of her house, she fell down headlong, and died, and departed into fire forever.   katika karne ya 3 au ya 4 baada ya kuteswa na tajiri wake, mwanamke Myahudi, aliyemkuta anamuomba Kristo kwa siri. Hatimaye alimkabidhi Yesu roho yake.
