7. This appearance of
Christ to James is not mentioned in the Gospels. Jerome
(Catalog. Script. Eccles. p. 170 D) mentions a tradition that
James had taken an oath that he would eat no bread from the hour in
which he had drunk the Cup of the Lord, until he should see Him rising
from the dead. Wherefore the Saviour immediately after He had
risen appeared to James and commanded him to eat.
