The History of Joseph the Carpenter

Jesus of Nazareth

An account of the life and, above all, the death of Joseph, presented as a discourse by Jesus to the apostles. It describes the old man's agony, the arrival of death and Jesus's intercession for his adoptive father, and lies at the origin of devotion to Saint Joseph as patron of a good death.
