Радио ВЕРА - Преподобные Варлаам и Иосаф - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

Once the Indian king Avenir heard the prophecy that his son Joasafu was destined to become a Christian. Wanting to prevent the predetermined, Avenir placed his son in an isolated palace. He ordered that the young man would not hear a single word about Christ and His teaching. But somehow Joasaf got out of the palace and first saw death and suffering. This prompted him to think about the meaning of life. Joasaph met the hermit Varlaam. He told the prince about Christ. Avenir, having learned that his son was baptized, was angry. The king tried threats and persuasion to convince Joasaph to renounce, but the prince was adamant. The power of the faith of the young man convinced his father. After a while, he was baptized. Joasaf ruled the country, and then retired to the cave to Varlaam and also became a hermit.
