Unfortunately the army seems to have made another attack on a monastery in Wadi Natrun only yesterday - thankfully somebody recorded the whole thing: Warning: there is a bit of blood (nothing too graphic), as two of the Copts gathered in the mona…

Hi ophadece - I got this use of the weak article from Sameh Younana's book, this is what he says: "`p[oic doesn't just mean 'the Lord', but in some cases it means 'O Lord.' It's usually easy to tell when the construction being used for the definite…

A reflection on the glass. "Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world." 1 John 4:1 Skepticism with things like this is very healthy…

Great post dzheremi! I'd just wanted to add this because I just recently finished reading 'The Screwtape Letters' by CS Lewis which has BRILLIANT chapter on humility. The book is written as a collection of letters from a senior devil to junior dev…

No I don't have a quicker answer - I'd be interested to learn the etymology too actually. It's listed in the Chicago Demotic Dictionary as 'RMT' (the final 'T' was just a grammatical thing I think, not spoken) so at least as far back as Demotic (4…

Good luck and God be with you! I'm sure you'll be fine - what often helps me is treating it more like a conversation than a speech. My prayers are with you, pray for me also.
