Житие - Преподобный Зосима Ворбозомский - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

The Monk Zosima is the founder of the Annunciation Monastery on the island of Lake Vorbozom, 23 versts south of Belozersk. It is not known exactly when the monk arrived at the place of his exploits. Most likely, this happened back in the 15th century, because under the year 1501 the Vorbozom abbot Jonah is mentioned, of course, one of Zosima’s successors as abbot. There is also no information about where the monk came from to the island of Lake Vorbozom. His hermitage was one of those that made up the monastic “Trans-Volga region” and was located around the Kirillo-Belozersky monastery. The time of death of the Vorbozom ascetic is indicated differently (half or the end of the 16th century). But it would probably be more accurate to move it to the end of the 15th century. The venerable relics of St. Zosima rest hidden in a chapel named after him at the Annunciation Church of his abolished monastery. Local celebration of St. Zosima began after half of the 16th century before the establishment of the Holy Synod (in 1721). In addition to April 4/17, the memory of the saint of God is celebrated on November 7/20.
