THE APOCALYPSE OF SEDRACH/SHADRACH - ONE OF THE THREE IN FIERY FURNACE
God said to him: If I catch him by the foot, he will say, You have given me no joy in the world. But I have left him to his own will because I loved him. Wherefore I sent forth my righteous angels to guard him night and day. Sedrach said: I know, O Lord, that of all Your creatures You chiefly loved man, of the quadrupeds the sheep, of woods the olive, of fruits the vine, of flying things the bee, of rivers the Jordan, of cities Jerusalem. And all these man also loves, my Lord. God said to Sedrach: I will ask you one thing, Sedrach: if you answer me, then I may fitly help you, even though you have tempted your creator. Sedrach said: Speak. The Lord God said: Since I made all things, how many men were born and how many died, and how many are to die and how many hairs have they? Tell me, Sedrach, since the heaven was created and the earth, how many trees grew in the world, and how many fell, and how many are to fall, and how many are to arise, and how many leaves have they? Tell me, Sedrach, since I made the sea, how many waves arose and how many fell, and how many are to arise, and how many winds blow along the margin of the sea? Tell me, Sedrach, from the creation of the world of the ages, when the air rained, how many drops fell upon the land, and how many are to fall? And Sedrach said: You alone know all these things, O Lord; You only understand all these things: only, I pray You, deliver man from chastisement, and I shall not be separated from our race.
