Title
- Dabra Zamaddo's greedy man who did not observe holy days.
Description
A certain greedy man lived between the two Mount Sehins. He made a lot of money through farming and the relentless acquisition of new land to cultivate. This man never made any offerings to the church. He also refused to observe holy days, and instead spent his time sowing his fields. One year, when his crop was ready to harvest, Mary sent a swarm of locusts. The locusts did not touch any other person’s field, but they did completely decimate this man’s crop. This man also lost all his money, his cattle did not return from the fields, and then his wife died. The man remained lonely and poor into old age, just as Mary had intended.
