The Assumption took place years after Jesus’s Resurrection. Why did he abandon her here on earth all this time? The Apostles had their job and she did not attend the first Synod they held so she obviously had no job from Him anymore after the Descend of the Holy Spirit.
Some historical data show she was not popular with the rabbis and hence her own people and community. So she must have lived a sad lonely life.
Why did He abandon her?
A vocation is not a job. Some vocations call us to quiet contemplation, or to daily menial tasks that go unnoticed by anyone but God.
Rather than look at what Mary did, we should look at who she is.
And she is the Virgin Mother of God living a sinless life, modelling virtue, pondering the mysteries of God, contemplating her Son. Receiving our prayers and pleading for us.

It would be hard to conceive a more lofty vocation.

Thank you for your trouble. Though this book may contain the parts where visions from Mary that book I read does, it does not look the same. This looks like it contains only the parts where Mary herself allegedly speaks. The book I read is a series of various ancient Coptic texts not always where Mary says but what other people describe. Probably written oral tradition of the Coptic Church.
 
Ooo, question for you.

We’ve been talking about the vision of Timothy, Patriarch of Alexandria. (Τιμοθεος - Timotheos).

But I’m seeing reference to a Vision of Theophilus, Patriarch of Alexandria. (Θεοφιλος - Theophilus).

Do you want to flip through this one and see if it has the scenes you remember? I need to take care of some stuff, but I thought I’d post the link before I started my day.

It doesn’t have any of that “O my child Jesus, what was thy sin” and “I had no clue I was pregnant between the Assumption and the Nativity” nonsense like the 2018 book does. Or if it does— I didn’t catch it at a quick glance. 🙂

In my printed book there are two different visions (chapters in the book). One to Teophilus and one to Timothy. Both Patriarchs of Alexandria.
Both contain records of Jesus performing miracles during the flee in Egypt as a baby. And she saying he was no ordinary baby and could speak at an age people were shocked to see a baby speak.
