Abulfaraj, p. 57. XLIV. ZECHARIAH. Sozomen[702] relates that the prophet Zechariah appeared to Colomeras, a farmer of the village of Chupher, in Palestine, and revealed to him his tomb; and on excavations having been made on the spot, an ancient Hebrew book was discovered, which, however, was not regarded as canonical. Nicephoras repeats the story after Sozomen.[703] Footnote 702: Hist. Eccles. lib. ix. cap. ult. Footnote 703: Ibid., lib. xiv. c. 8. LONDON: R.
