Saint Veronica - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (631 words)
According to the Acta Sanctorum published by the Bollandists (under February 4), Saint Veronica or Berenice was a pious woman of Jerusalem, who moved with pity as Jesus carried his cross to Golgotha, gave him her kerchief that he might wipe his forehead.
Current tradition among many pious Catholics has it that Veronica was able to heal Tiberius of a grievous sickness with her napkin, and that the emperor, thus convinced of the divinity of Christ, forthwith sent Pilate into exile.
Veronica is commemorated on Shrove Tuesday, but her festival is not of obligation.
