Midwife Salome is a midwife at the Nativity of Jesus who appears in several apocryphal Gospel s, and is still depicted with a companion in Eastern Orthodox icon s of the scene, though she has long vanished from most Western depictions. A midwife Salome appears in the infancy gospel attached to the name of James the Just, the Gospel of James Protevangelion of James ch. XIV blockquote 14 And the midwife went out from the cave, and Salome met her. 15 And the midwife said to her, Salome, Salome, I will tell you a most surprising thing, which I saw. 16 A virgin has brought forth, which is a thing contrary to nature. 17 To which Salome replied, As the Lord my God lives, unless I receive particular proof of this matter, I will not believe that a virgin has brought forth. 18 Then Salome went in, and the midwife said, Mary, show yourself, for a great controversy has arisen about you. 19 And Salome tested her with her finger. 20 But her hand was withered, and she groaned bitterly, 21 and said, Woe to me, because of my iniquity For I have tempted the living God, and my hand is ready to drop off. blockquote That Salome is the first, after the midwife, to bear witness to the birth and to recognize Jesus as the Christ, are circumstances that tend to connect her with Salome disciple Salome the disciple . By the High Middle Ages this Salome was often identified with Mary Salome in the West, and therefore regarded as the believing midwife. ref G Schiller, Iconography of Christian Art, Vol. I ,1971 English trans from German , Lund Humphries, London, p.62, ISBN 853312702 ref References commonscat Midwife Salome references Link GA ru Category Infancy Gospels Christianity stub ru ... more details
