Christ is risen, He is truly risen! A happy and blessed Easter to our Orthodox brothers and sisters.
St James, whose feast we celebrate on 30 April, is an important saint in the Maronite tradition, not only because he was an apostle, but also because he was particularly associated with the Aramaic and Syriac current within Christianity. There is a tradition that he preached the Gospel in Antioch. It is striking that the epithet Our Lord gave to Ss James and John was an Aramaic one: Boanerges, which literally means “sons of rage” (being a Greek attempt to render bene regesh). This indicates that the language they were speaking among themselves was Aramaic.
This Sunday’s incredible Gospel is an invitation from Christ to us all.
23 April - St George Martyr
The third Sunday of the Resurrection: Luke 24:13-35
Tuesday’s of the resurrection
