Proclaiming that he was still alive, they did not let anyone come near him until the evening when Rabbi Cruspidi opened his eyes and requested a drink of water. He then told everyone to come back tomorrow and he will reveal to them what he had seen in a different world, warning them to keep his family and anyone else away from his bed for the remainder of the night. Everyone departed aside from Rabbi Yochanan who also remained distant. |

He explained how they had viewed him crying when the angel of death came to take his soul and then laughing when the Shichina had come to protect him. Rabbi Cruspidi was then taken to the supernal court where he saw many camps of angels occupied in the judgments of the world. Leading them was the archangel San--- minister of the face but he was covered with a veil and Rabbi Cruspidi was not given permission to approach and look at him. |
− | + | He then came in front of the judges. There were defenders and prosecutor, Rabbi Cruspidi also saw many of his deceased friends at the trial. The angel of death then complained how they were not allowing him to kill Rabbi Cruspidi and was therefore bringing him to trail. Three witnesses then stood up and said they found atonement as Rabbi Cruspidi was always forgiving his entire life. They then reviewed his entire life which took place as he lay unconscious for a day. Since his entire life he had been forgiving they could not issue a ruling and his case was transferred to an unknown higher court. From there they issue the verdict that Rabbi Cruspidi be left alone and be allowed to complete his Torah study. The angel of death however refused to give in until he was given the original Rabbi Cruspidi Saba in his place. | |
