#Feasts of #Senne_4

✞✞✞On this day we commemorate the Departure of Saint Sophia the Great Martyr and Saint John of Herakleia✞✞✞

✞✞✞In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, one God. Amen!✞✞✞

✞✞✞ Sophia✞✞✞
=>Sophia (‘-ia’ is unstressed) was a name which was popular amongst early Christians. Though today we hear the gentiles being called by it, it means “The Wisdom of Christ”. There are many saints called by this name and the Saint we commemorate today is one of them.

✞✞✞Saint Sophia the Fighter✞✞✞
=>The Saint was born in the Eastern part of the Roman Empire in the 4th century. And because the era was of persecution and unease, people lived in exile.

✞And since Sophia’s parents were Christians, they raised her in a good manner, purely. And as they were wealthy as well, they hired a servant and built her a house. And there, she lived. Though she had everything, she shunned all, and lived by fasting and prayer.

✞And when she came of age, knowing that her parents were going to wed her to the governor of the city, she entered her home and prostrated a 100 times and prayed to her Creator saying, “My Lord! Do not let me carry the weight of this world as I can not bear it but as Your yoke is love I can bear that.”

✞And then she called upon her handmaid, had her drink much wine and she exchanged clothes. And at night, she went to the desert. Though her wish was asceticism, God’s will for her was another. And on her way, she found many Christians fleeing because of great affliction. Nonetheless, she did not choose exile.

✞Instead, by asking for directions, she reached to the one named as the man-eater, Emperor Diocletian. And she approached before him and said, “I am a Christian.” And the Emperor was astounded by her beauty and bravery. Then, he tried to entice her. And when that failed, he tried to frighten her. But all his efforts were unsuccessful.

✞Hence, the soldiers threw her on the ground and beat her with metal rods that had spikes and the place was covered with blood. Then, dragging her on the ground, they threw her into prison. However, Saint Gabriel appeared and after healing her, he disappeared. 

✞And at times the tormentors tortured her with fire, and on other occasions with blades while on other instances they lashed her. But they were not able to shake her from her faith. Thus, the Emperor finally ordered that she be beheaded. And the soldiers executed his instruction. Then our Lord Jesus Christ descended and took up [the soul of] St. Sophia with honor. And He promised her saying, “The person that calls your name or holds your feast will be forgiven.”

✞✞✞Saint John of Herakleia✞✞✞
=>The Saint in a similar manner [to St. Sophia] lived in the Era of Persecution. His father was called Zechariahs and his mother Elisabeth and he was named John. An amazing spiritual similarity [to the family of St. John the Baptist]. The parents of the Saint were the rulers of the place called Herakleia, and their kindness was attested to.

✞John sat on the throne [of his father] at the age of just 20 years after Zacharias passed away. At the time, he had to choose from the following two.
1. Bow down before an idol and continue with his worldly honor.
2. Or die because of his Christianity.

✞And since St. John’s heart was filled by the love of Christ, he did 2 major things. First, he destroyed temples in his surroundings. And second, he went to the Emperor and rebuked him before his dignitaries saying, “You are an indolent that renounced Christ.”

✞And the tortures that were inflicted upon the Saint after that were unspeakable. There was nothing which his tormentors left out. They used fire, blades, swords, crushing wheels . . . but the worst was when they flayed his skin and burned him. However, he endured all these for his faith, and on this day, he was beheaded.

✞✞✞May our God recall the sufferings of the martyrs and conceal us from the trials which are coming. And may He grant us from their blessings.

✞✞✞ “Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known. What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops. And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”✞✞✞
Matt. 10:26-28

††† ቅዱሱ አባታችን ከዘመነ ሰማዕታት ጣፋጭ ፍሬዎች አንዱና ግንባር ቀደሙ ነው::

††† ጥንተ ነገሩስ እንደ ምን ነው ቢሉ:-

በ3ኛው መቶ ክ/ዘመን ማጠናቀቂያ አካባቢ ታግሕስጦስና ክሪስ የሚባሉ ክርስቲያኖች ነበሩ:: በቀናው የጽድቅ ጐዳና ቢኖሩም ከጋብቻ በኋላ ለአሥራ ሰባት ዓመታት መውለድ አልቻሉም::

የአሥራ ሰባት ዓመት ልመናቸውን የተመለከተ እግዚአብሔር ቅዱስ ገብርኤልን ልኮ አበሰራቸው:: "ሕፃኑ ለሰማዕትነት ተመርጧልና ብሶይ በሉት" አላቸው:: ብሶይ በተወለደ በሰባት ዓመቱ ወላጆቹ ይማር ብለው ወደ ገዳም ወሰዱት:: በገዳም ውስጥ መጻሕፍትን አጥንቶ ዲቁናን ተሾመ:: ወደ ዓለም ተመለስ ቢሉትም እንቢ አለ::

ከባልንጀራው ቅዱስ ጴጥሮስ ጋር ለሃያ አንድ ዓመታት በድንግልና : በተጋድሎ : ጾምና ጸሎትን እያዘወተሩ ኖሩ:: ቅዱስ ብሶይ ሃያ ስምንት ዓመት በሞላው ጊዜ መልአኩ የተናገረው የትንቢት ዘመን ደረሰ:: በርካታ ምዕመናን ክርስቲያን በመሆናቸው ብቻ ታረዱ:: ወደ እሳትም ተጣሉ:: ሞትን የፈሩ ደግሞ በየዱር ገደሉ ተሰደዱ::

ቅዱስ ብሶይም በሚያውቁት ሰዎች ተከሶ ለፍርድ ቀረበ:: ድንገት ከሰማይ ፍጡነ ረድኤት ወሊቀ መላእክት ቅዱስ ገብርኤል ደረሰለት:: "አይዞሕ! እኔ እስከ መጨረሻው ከአንተ ጋር ነኝ" አለው::

የጦር መኮንኑ ክርስቶስን እንዲክድ አባበለው:: ቅዱሱ ግን ጣዖታቱ የአጋንንት ማደሪያ መሆናቸውን በገሃድ ነገረው:: መኮንኑ ቢበሳጭ ወታደሮቹ እንዲጨምቁት አዘዘ:: ደሙ እየወረደ ገረፉት:: በፊትና በኋላ ብረት አድርገው ሥጋውን ጨፍልቀው እሥር ቤት ውስጥ ጣሉት:: ሊቀ መላእክት መጥቶ ዳስሶ አዳነው::

መኮንኑ እርሱን ማሰቃየት ደከመው:: የቅዱሳን ሕይወት ግርም ይላል:: ተገራፊው እያለ ገራፊው : ስቃዩን የሚቀበለው እያለ አሰቃዩ ይደክመዋል::

ቅዱስ ብሶይን ከአንዱ መኮንን ወደ ሌላው እያመላለሱ አሰቃዩት:: አካሉን ቆራረጡት:: ዓይኑን በጋለ ብረት አወጡት:: በምጣድ ቆሉት:: በጋን ውስጥ ቀቀሉት:: እርሱ ግን በፈጣሪው ፍቅር የጸና ነውና ሁሉን ታገሰ:: በነዚሕ ሁሉ የስቃይ ዓመታት ቁራሽ ዳቦ እንኳ አላቀመሱትም:: በረሃብ ቀጡት እንጂ:: ለእርሱ ግን ምግቡ የክርስቶስ ስም ነበር::

በመጨረሻ ንጉሡ ዲዮቅልጢያኖስ አንገቱን በሰይፍ አስመታው:: ሥጋውንና የተቆረጠ አንገቱን ገንቦ (ጋን) ውስጥ ከቶ ጣለው:: የቅዱሱን አካል የያዘችው ጋን ግን በእግዚአብሔር ቸርነት : ማንም ሳይሸከማት ከመሬት ከፍ አለች:: ለሃያ ቀናት ተጉዛ ከሶርያ ግብጽ (ቦሃ) ደረሰች:: ክርስቲያኖች ተቀብለው ሲከፍቷት የቅዱስ ብሶይ ራሱና አንገቱ ተጣብቆ ተገኝቷል:: በክብርም አሳርፈውታል::

✞✞✞On this day we commemorate the Departure of Saint Bshay (Ebsoy) the Great Martyr✞✞✞

✞✞✞In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, one God. Amen!✞✞✞

✞✞✞Saint Abba Bshay (Ebsoy) the Martyr✞✞✞
=>Our holy father was one of the sweet fruits of the Era of Persecution. And he takes precedence from many of them.

✞If asked about his life, it was as follows.

✞At the end of the 3rd century, there were Christians named Tagestas and Karisa. And while they lived on the righteous path, they were not able to bear a child for seventeen years after marriage.

✞And God, Who saw their seventeen years of plea, sent St. Gabriel and he announced to them and said, “As the child [that you will bore] is chosen to be a martyr, call him Bshay.” And seven years after Bshay was born, his parents took him to a monastery so that he could study. After he studied the Scriptures, he was ordained a deacon. And when they asked him to return to the city, he said “No”.
  
✞[And in the monastery] he lived with his friend, St. Peter, for twenty one years in virginity and in spiritual struggle by making fasting and prayer their routines. And when St. Bshay became twenty eight years old, the era about which the archangel prophesized came to be. And many of the faithful were slaughtered for just being Christians. And some were thrown into fires while others that feared death fled to the wilderness. 

✞And St. Bshay, being accused by people that knew him, was brought before a court. And suddenly, St. Gabriel the Archangel, who hastens for aid, descended from heaven and told him, “Do not worry! I will be with you until the end.”

✞And the officer in charge tried to persuade the Saint to renounce Christ. However, the Saint told the officer that the idols were the abodes of demons upfront and in public. And because the official was angered, he ordered soldiers to press him (with a henbaz). And they lashed him while his blood poured. Then, they threw him after crushing his flesh in between two metal pieces. Thereafter, the Archangel appeared, touched [his wounds], and healed him.
 
✞And the officer grew tired of torturing the Saint. The life of the saints is awe inspiring! While the tortured is there, the oppressor gets tired and while the suffering is there, the one inflicting the pain becomes weary.
  
✞I think that is why Aba Tsegie Dengel said,
“Virgin, enthralled by your Son’s fragrance
The one that is at the square of the martyrs
While stoned, feels the rocks as hulls
And the flames become as the waters of the cold seas”

✞The tormentors tortured St. Bshay by sending him back and forth from one official to another. And they cut his body to pieces, took out his eyes with hot metal rods, roasted him on iron beds and boiled him as well. Nonetheless, he endured all as he was steadfast in the love of his Creator. And in all those years of trials, his oppressors did not even give him a piece of bread, instead they made him suffer from hunger. However, for the Saint, the name of Christ was food.

✞Finally, Emperor Diocletian had him beheaded.  And he placed the Saint’s severed body and head in a vessel and plunged it. But the vessel, which had the Saint’s body, by the mercy of God, without being carried by anyone, was elevated from the ground. And it travelled for twenty days from Syria and reached Egypt (Boha). And when Christians found and opened it, they saw St. Bshay’s head and neck joined [miraculously]. And they buried him with honors.
 
✞✞✞Saint James/Jacob✞✞✞
=>Also on this day, St. James of the East, the righteous and faithful, is commemorated. 

✞St. James was a father that lived in a desert near Constantinople. This father is known, besides his holy life, for his courage. In the 340s when Constantine the Younger became an Arian, this father rebuked him publicly.✞And because of this, he endured trials. He was imprisoned and lashed. Thus, God smote the heretical Emperor [for the affliction he brought upon the Saint] where he went to do battle.

The Saint passed away on this day and went to Christ, Whom he loved.

✞✞✞May the Good God make us partakers of the blessings of St. Bshay the Martyr and St. James. And may He forgive us through their intercessions.
