History

1415: Possible participation of the founder of the monastery in the village of Zhelezny Borok in the prediction of the birth of Vasily II

In the life of St. Jacob Zheleznoborovsky, founder of the monastery in the name of St. John the Baptist in the village of Zhelezny Borok (in the territory of modern Kostroma region), there is an episode that in some places literally coincides with the stories of the annals of the birth of Vasily II. The episode begins with the words: "I was once St. Jacob in Moscow and at that time was born to Grand Duke Vasily Dimitrievich son Prince Great "[1] This is followed by a story familiar from the annals about the suffering of the Grand Duchess, the threat of death, the request of her husband to pray, the answer of the monk (in this case St. James) and the birth of the heir. The episode in life ends with information about the special mercy of the happy father to the monastery founded by the Monk Jacob: "And all of you are divided, and from that, holding the faith of the Grand Duke to St. Jacob and having it, just one from the prophet, and then the Grand Duke of the monastery of St. James sat down, and spread, and mercy, a lot for the creation of a holy monastery. " Modern researchers Old Russian hagiography believes that identifying the Monk Jacob and the elder from the monastery in Moscow is a mistake, and the compiler of life at one time allowed her, being misled by consonance (two John's monasteries, one in Iron Borok, the other near Bor). But, as the author of the book on the monastery of St. James rightly notes, in this case, an assessment of information about the Grand Duke's attention to the monastery, which the hagiographer directly connects with the event in Moscow, is needed.
