| Abstract: | Is-santwarju tal-Madonna tal-Għar fir-Rabat minn dejjem ġibed lejh pellegrinaġġi kbar, iżda żdiedu bil-kbir meta saret l-inkurunazzjoni tal-Madonna. L-ewwel ma nsibu miktub hu li fl-1630, fl-għar, Fra Pawl Muscat sab it-tazza tal-lampier li kien hemm, għadha mimlija biż-żejt wara li kienet ilha tixgħel għal erbat ijiem sħaħ. L-għar kien magħluq u ċ-ċavetta kienet għand l-imsemmi Muscat jumejn wara, il-qaddejja ta’ Marietta Cassar għamlet ftit żejt tal-lampier fuq idejn u riġlejn binha; ċertu Ġwanni Marija Galea, li kellu 18-il xahar u kien twieled paralizzat. B'għaġeb ta' kulħadd, it-tifel fieq minnufih. Hekk bdiet id-devozzjoni taż-żejt tal-Madonna tal-Għar. Dan hu tagħrif miġjub bl-għajnuna ta' Patri Mikiel Fsadni. |
