Michal ŠimkoV tom kázaní ma zaujala zmienka o tom, ako svätý Ján Damaskýn stratil ruku a Panna Mária mu ju vrátila. Nikdy som sa neuvedomila, že preto má Trojeručica tú tretiu ruku navrchu. Je to pekné, keď sa také veci vysvetlia jednoducho, bez zbytočného mudrovania.

Zuzana NovákováÁno, ten príbeh o ruke svätého Jána Damaského je naozaj zaujímavý a jednoduchý. Vždy som si myslela, že tá tretia ruka je skôr symbol ochrany, až kým som to nepočula vysvetlené takto. A čo ty, Michal, počul si už aj o tom, ako sa tá ikona dostala k nám na Slovensko?
