20. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from ibn Faddal from al- Hassan ibn al-Jahm from Ibrahim ibn Mehzam from those whom he has mentioned (in his book) from Abu al-Hassan, the first (a.s.) who has said the following
“Yahya (John) ibn Zakariya would weep and would not laugh. Isa (Jesus), son of Maryam would laugh and weep. What Isa (Jesus) did was better than what Yahya would do.”
20ـ عَنْهُ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ الْجَهْمِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مِهْزَمٍ عَمَّنْ ذَكَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الأوَّلِ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
كَانَ يَحْيَى بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا (عَلَيهِما السَّلام) يَبْكِي وَلا يَضْحَكُ وَكَانَ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ (عَلَيهِما السَّلام) يَضْحَكُ وَيَبْكِي وَكَانَ الَّذِي يَصْنَعُ عِيسَى (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) أَفْضَلَ مِنَ الَّذِي كَانَ يَصْنَعُ يَحْيَى (عَلَيهِ السَّلام).
