Saint and Hegesippus
Jacobus de Voragine, compiling his Legenda Aurea ( Golden Legend ) before the competition arose, characterized Mary Magdalene as the emblem of penitence, washing the feet of Jesus with her copious tears ( although it is now believed that Mary of Bethany was the woman known for washing or anointing the feet of Jesus ) protectress of pilgrims to Jerusalem, daily lifting by angels at the meal hour in her fasting retreat and many other miraculous happenings in the genre of Romance, ending with her death in the oratory of Saint Maximin, all disingenuously claimed to have been drawn from the histories of Hegesippus and of Josephus.
Saint Hegesippus ( Ἅγιος Ἡγήσιππος ) ( c. 110 — c. April 7, 180 AD ), was a Christian chronicler of the early Church who may have been a Jewish convert and certainly wrote against heresies of the Gnostics and of Marcion.
