The Letters of Christ and Abgar

Jesus of Nazareth

A brief exchange of letters: King Abgar of Edessa, ill, asks Jesus to come and heal him; Jesus replies in writing that he must fulfil his mission but will afterwards send one of his disciples. The legend underpinned the apostolic foundation of the Church of Edessa and the letter was used for centuries as an amulet.
