49-50.2 And three angels came, took Eve's corpse and buried it, where also the corpse of Adam and their son Abel were buried.
GREEK LATIN ARMENIAN GEORGIAN SLAVONIC
43.1 And Michael came and taught Seth how to prepare Eve for burial. And there came three angels and they bore her body and buried it where Adam's and Abel's bodies were. 51.1 Afterwards, all her children buried her with great weeping. After they had mourned her for four days, Michael appeared to them and said to Seth, [51]43.1 Michael, the archangel, came and spoke to Seth and taught him how to dress her. Three angels came and took Eve's body and brought it and placed it where Adam's and Abel's bodies were. [51]43.1 And the angel Michael came and taught Seth how to dress Eve. Three angels came and took Eve's body and placed it where they had placed Adam's body.
43.2 And afterwards Michael spoke to Seth saying; "Lay out in this manner every man that dies until the day of the Resurrection." [51]43.2 After this, Michael spoke to Seth and said, "Thus shall you dress every human being who dies, until the day of the end, through the resurrection" [51]43.2 And after that, the angel Michael told him, "Thus dress every dead person who dies, until the death of all human beings." 49-50.3 And the archangel said to Seth, "So shall you bury every person who dies until the resurrection."
43.3 And after giving him this rule he said: "Mourn not beyond six days, but on the seventh day, rest and rejoice on it, because on that very day, God and we, the angels, rejoice with the righteous soul, who has passed away from the earth." 51.2 "Man of God, mourn no longer than 6 days, for the 7th day is the sign of the resurrection, the repose of the coming age, and on the 7th day the Lord rested from all his works. [III+ from all his work. Indeed, the 8th day is [the sign] of the future and eternal blessedness, in which all the holy will reign throughout endless ages with the Creator and Savior himself, in both soul and body, never again to die. Amen. III] Then Seth made tablets. [51]43.3 When the angel had said this to Seth, I he ascended to heaven, praising the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and for ever. [51]43.3 When he had taught Seth all that, he ascended to the uppermost heaven, far from Seth, and he told him, "Do not mourn for the dead more than five days and on the seventh day rejoice, for on that day God rested from all his (works) which the Lord had made." 49-50.4 Again he said to him, "Arrange a memorial ceremony on the third day and on the ninth and on the twentieth and on the fortieth, and arrange everything in proper order, so that we angels might take joy in it along with the souls of the righteous."
43.4 After the angel said these things he ascended into heaven, glorifying (God) and saying: "Allelujah, holy, holy, holy is the Lord, to the glory of God the Father, Amen." [51]43.4 To him is glory and honor and adoration, with the Father and the Holy Spirit, now and for ever and for ever and ever. Amen. 49-50.5 Then the archangel Joel glorified God with words, "Holy, Holy, Holy, Allelulia,
49-50.6 Holy is the Lord, heaven and earth are full of His glory."
