In a series of paintings by Raphael di Santi of Urbino (Italy) two are illustrated on small predella panels (panels designed to decorate the "step" of an altar). Shortly after the Saints's passing, a heretical faction gathered in Palestine to dispute the doctrine and existence of Purgatory. Eusebius of Cremona, a follower of St. Jerome was instructed to take the Saint's cloak and lay it upon three men who recently died. This was to be done in the presence of believers and non-believers of orthodox Christianity. When Eusebius did this this, the three men revived, praised God and related their relative experiences of existence in Purgatory. The next miracle described took place outside of the City of Nazareth (the town of Jesus). The Archbishop of the place was named Silvanus and was accused by a heretic named Sabinianus of preaching a false doctrine contrary to Christian dogma approved of by Imperial authority (in short, challenging the Peace of Church & State). When Silvanus produced a book wriiten by St. Jerome supporting his argument, Sabianianus declared it a forgery and said that if it was true, that Divine intervention would prove it so. When this did not happen, Sabinianus pressed the charge and had Silvanus arrested and led away to be executed. Just before the blow was to be struck, the Saint appeared and halted the sword. Sabinianus suddenly fell to the ground, dead, his head mysteriously severed. His followers subsequently submitted to the teachings of the Church at Nazareth. There is another involving saving two hanged men from the gallows, which I have not recounted. It may be in The Golden Legend.
