Visit of Saint Marisse

圣马利斯的造访

Ecstasy of October 14, 1878

1878年10月14日的神魂超拔

It is difficult to pinpoint which saintthis could be. The Sanctuary Website proposes St. Marius who died in 270 AD, aPersian nobleman who travelled to Rome with his wife Martha and his two sons,Audifax and Abachum to venerate the tombs of the Apostles.

很难确定这是哪位圣人。圣所网站认为圣马利斯死于公元270年，是一位波斯贵族，他和妻子玛莎以及两个儿子奥蒂法克斯和阿巴库姆一起来到罗马，瞻仰宗徒的坟墓。

While in the city, they undertook thecharitable duty of burying the bodies of the martyrs under the persecution ofClaudius.

在城里，他们承担了埋葬克劳迪斯迫害下的殉道者尸体的慈善工作。

However, Marius died by beheadingaccording to tradition, while this heavenly visitor described a differentmartyrdom to Marie-Julie.

然而，马利斯是按照传统斩首而死的，而这位天堂的造访者则向玛利亚•茱莉描述了另一种不同的殉道。

There are a number of saints who arelisted with a name similar to Marisse. This could be St. Maurice of the ThebanLegion (d. 287, Feast Day Sept.22), who with a large number of Christiansoldiers, was martyred for refusing to sacrifice to the false gods beforebattle. (Another tradition declares they refused to kill innocent people.)

有许多圣徒的名字与Marisse相似。这位可能是埃及西本地域的圣马瑞斯的西班军团(公元287年，9月22日的瞻礼日)，他与大量的众多信奉基督的军人教士兵，殉道者因拒绝在作战斗前向假神献祭而殉道。(另一个传统说是他们拒绝杀害无辜的人。)

Or, this could be St. Maurice who diedwith Leontius and Daniel and companions, a group of forty five martyrs whosuffered at Nicopolis in 329 AD under the Emperor Licinius. (Feast Day July10.)

或者，这也可能是小亚美尼亚的圣莫里斯，他与列昂提乌斯，但以理和他的同伴一起死去，他们是一群45个人的殉道者，公元329年在於尼可波利斯受在李锡尼皇帝的统治时受难。(瞻礼日是7月10日)

 “I am Saint Marisse (Marius), martyr. I wasmartyred for defending and supporting the Holy Religion and the Fathers whopreached this great doctrine.

The time that is (being) prepared isalso a preparation that will lead a great number of souls to martyrdom andmartyrdom will be on the field, (of battle?) because the Faith is almostextinct in many hearts that await for a time not far off to satisfy their furyand rage (i.e. against God and His people)...

准备的时间也即是准备期，这将导致大群的人灵殉道，和将在战场上殉道的准备。因为信仰在许多人的心里几乎已经灭绝了，他们等待着那不远将滿全他們的时刻来满足他们的愤怒和狂暴(即，反对天主和反对祂的子民)……

But God's plans are also prepared. Thepower of God is also prepared and man, in his projects, will find a misleadingweakness. He thinks he has arrived at the edge of his victories, but God, theInfinite Wisdom, has also prepared everything ...

但天主的计划也是预备好的。天主的大能也是预备好了的，人在他的谋划中，会发现一个会误导人的弱点。他认为他已经到了胜利的边缘，但是天主，无限的智慧，也准备好了一切……
