We are in great need for dedicated priests of this nature to be fathers to the people of our parishes. Please pray for vocations and encourage any potential candidates you may notice.

Nov. 1: The Holy Unmercenary Physicians and Wonderworkers Cosmas and Damian These saints and their mother St Theodota were natives of Asia Minor (some sources say Mesopotamia).

4 Nov. 1: The Holy Unmercenary Physicians and Wonderworkers Cosmas and Damian These saints and their mother St Theodota were natives of Asia Minor (some sources say Mesopotamia). Their pagan father died while they were still quite small children. Their mother raised them in Christian piety. Through her own example, and by reading holy books to them, St Theodota preserved her children in purity of life according to the command of the Lord, and Cosmas and Damian grew up into righteous and virtuous men. Trained and skilled as physicians, they received from the Holy Spirit the gift of healing people s illnesses of body and soul by the power of prayer. They even treated animals. With fervent love for both God and neighbor, they never took payment for their services. They strictly observed the command of our Lord Jesus Christ, Freely have you received, freely give. (Mt. 10:8). The fame of Sts Cosmas and Damian spread throughout all the surrounding region, and people called them unmercenary physicians. Their life of active service and their great spiritual influence on the people around them led many into the Church, attracting the attention of the Roman authorities. At Rome, the Saints were imprisoned and put on trial. Before the Roman emperor and the judge they openly professed their faith in Christ God, Who had come into the world to save mankind and redeem the world from sin, and they resolutely refused to offer sacrifice to the pagan gods. They said, We have done evil to no one, we are not involved with the magic or sorcery of which you accuse us. We treat the infirm by the power of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and we take no payment for rendering aid to the sick, because our Lord commanded His disciples, Freely have you received, freely give (Matt 10: 8). The emperor, however, continued with his demands. Through the prayer of the holy brothers, imbued with the power of grace, God suddenly struck the emperor blind, so that he too might experience the almighty power of the Lord. The people, beholding the miracle, cried out, Great is the Christian God! There is no other God but Him! Many of those who believed besought the holy brothers to heal the emperor, and he himself implored the saints, promising to convert to the true God, Christ the Savior, so the saints healed him. After this, Sts. Cosmas and Damian were honorably set free, and once again they set about treating the sick. An older physician, an instructor, under whom the holy brothers had studied the art of medicine, became envious of their fame. Driven to madness by malice, and overcome by passionate envy, he summoned the two brothers, formerly his most beloved students, proposing that they should all go together in order to gather various medicinal herbs. Going far into the mountains, he murdered them and threw their bodies into a river. Thus these holy brothers, the Unmercenary Physicians Cosmas and Damian, ended their earthly journey as martyrs. Although they had devoted their lives to the Christian service of their neighbors, and had escaped the Roman sword and prison, their teacher treacherously murdered them. Now, through the prayers of the holy martyrs Cosmas and Damian, God grants healing to all who with faith have recourse to their heavenly intercession.

Touching the Fringe of His Garment IT IS COMMON IN MANY EASTERN CHURCHES to see people touching or kissing the priest s vestment as he passes in procession.

5 Touching the Fringe of His Garment IT IS COMMON IN MANY EASTERN CHURCHES to see people touching or kissing the priest s vestment as he passes in procession. In this way, they express their veneration for Christ in the Gospel book, the Holy Gifts or other sacred object he is carrying. They are doing liturgically what people in Eastern cultures did regularly to express reverence for or dependence upon their religious or ethnic leaders or even family elders for centuries. We read in the Gospels that people would reach out to touch the hem of Christ s garment in the hope that they would thereby come into contact with holiness and obtain a blessing. On His arrival at Gennesaret, for example, we are told that When the men of that place recognized Him, they sent out into all that surrounding region, brought to Him all who were sick, and begged Him that they might only touch the hem of His garment. And as many as touched it were made perfectly well (Mt 14:35, 36). The woman with the issue of blood in Lk 8 had the same hope. The Issue of Blood Modern commentators have debated whether this woman suffered from a genetic blood disease such as hemophilia or a menstrual disorder of some kind. This issue is not raised in the Scriptures, which focus on the results rather than the cause of her condition. In Mk 5 we read that she had suffered many things from many physicians. She had spent all that she had and was no better, but rather grew worse (v. 26). Not only had her condition worsened, but she had become impoverished in the process (she had spent all her livelihood on physicians Lk 8:43). The Gospels, written for Gentile converts, do not mention another effect of her illness which would have been extremely important to Jews. Whatever the origin of the hemorrhaging, it caused the woman to be ritually unclean according to the Torah. Bodily discharges of any kind, being of the earth, rendered a person or anything they touched unfit for the heavenly action of worship ( defiling the tabernacle Lev 15:31). Neither this woman nor anyone who had contact with her could observe the Holydays or offer even the daily sacrifices in the temple on any day she suffered this hemorrhage. Some have surmised that, if she had been married, her husband probably would have divorced her as she would have been unable to care for her children or for others without making them all unclean. She was, in effect, as much of an outcast as a leper as far as participation in the life of her people was concerned. Touching Jesus changed all that. What Did She Touch? In Lk 8:44 we are told that this woman came from behind and touched the border of His garment. The phrase translated here as the border of His garment is more properly rendered as the fringe of His robe. The ordinary dress of Jewish men in Christ s day consisted of a tunic over which they wore a mantle large enough to cover them from head to foot. The Torah prescribed than this

6 garment be fringed with tassels (tzitzit); Speak to the children of Israel: Tell them to make tassels on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and to put a blue thread in the tassels of the corners. When you shall have the tassel, that you may look upon it and remember all the commandments of the LORD and do them (Num 15:38, 39). Some rabbinic authorities considered blue as the color of God s glory. Covers for the temple vessels were made in this color. Touching the blue-threaded tassel, then, is an attempt to connect with the glory of God. This garment, reduced in size, is the prayer shawl worn by observant Jews today at worship. Some Orthodox Jewish men wear a kind of scapular under their street wear. Its tassels often may be seen hanging outside their shirts. Who Was This Woman? Although the story of this woman is recounting in Mt 9 and Mk 5 as well as in Lk, her name is never given and she is not mentioned again. Later writers tried to remedy the defects in the Gospels by recounting life stories of characters like this woman whom the Scriptures mention only in passing. Thus, in the fourth-century Acts of Pilate this woman, now given a name, is portrayed as trying to give evidence at Jesus trial: And a certain woman named Bernice crying out from afar off said: I had an issue of blood, and I touched the hem of his garment, and the issue of blood which I had had for twelve years was stopped. The Jews say: we have a law, that a woman's evidence is not to be received. Another fourth-century attempt to bolster the Gospel is found in Eusebius Church History. He notes that They say that the woman with an issue of blood, who, as we learn from the sacred Gospel, received from our Savior deliverance from her affliction, came from this place [Caesarea Philippi], and that her house is shown in the city, and that remarkable memorials of the kindness of the Savior to her remain there. For there stands upon an elevated stone, by the gates of her house, a brazen image of a woman kneeling, with her hands stretched out, as if she were praying. Opposite this is another upright image of a man, made of the same material, clothed decently in a double cloak, and extending his hand toward the woman. At his feet, beside the statue itself, is a certain strange plant, which climbs up to the hem of the brazen cloak, and is a remedy for all kinds of diseases. They say that this statue is an image of Jesus. It has remained to our day, so that we ourselves also saw it when we were staying in the city (Book 7.18). Later Eastern chroniclers such as Sozomen and John Malalas were not as cautious about the story of this statue as was Eusebius. They accept the story as unqualified fact. Modern historians suggest that the statue originally depicted the submission of Judea to the Emperor Hadrian but was later give a Christian meaning. The statue was destroyed during the reign of Julian the Apostate and a statue of that emperor erected in its place. A much later legend based on the story of this woman is the legend of Veronica s veil. In the medieval West, it was said that the woman with the issue of blood was called Veronica (the Latin form of Bernice). She was described as having wiped the face of Jesus on the way to His crucifixion. Although there is no mention of this incident in the Scriptures, it became part of the medieval devotion, the Stations of the Cross. In fact, the veronica (meaning true image) was not a person, but a relic perhaps the image of Edessa brought to Rome in the twelfth century.

9 Today s Readings: From to the Second Epistle of St. Paul to the Galatians (2: 16-20) BRETHREN, we know man is not justified by the works of the Law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. Hence we also believe in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the Law, because by the works of the Law no man will be justified. But if, while we are seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is Christ therefore the minister of sin? By no means. For if I rebuild the things I destroyed, I make myself a sinner. For through the Law I have died to the Law that I may live for God. With Christ I am nailed to the cross. It is now no longer I who live, but Christ is living in me. And the life I now live in the flesh, I live within the faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself up for me. الرسالة (غلاطية 21-16) 2: يا إ خوة لعلم نا با ن الانسان لا ي ب رر با عمال الناموس بل ا نما بالا يمان بيسوع المسيح نحن أ يضا آم نا بالمسيح يسوع لكي ن ب رر بالا يمان بالمسيح لا با عمال الناموس. اذ لن ي ب رر با عمال الناموس أ حد من ذوي الجسد. فا ن ك نا ونحن طالبون التبرير في المسيح نو جد نحن أ يضا خطا ة أ فيكون المسيح خادما للخطيي ة حاشى. فا ن عدت أ بني ما قد هد م ت جعلت نفسي متعد يا. لا ني بالناموس م ت للناموس لكي أ حيا الله. مصلوب مع المسيح وأ نا ح ي لا أ نا بعد انما المسيح حي ف ي. الايمان بابن االله, الذي أ ح بني وبذ ل نفس ه عن ي. ا ين وما أ حياه الا ن في الجسد ا نما أحياه في The Holy Gospel according to St. Luke (8: 41-56) AT that time behold, there came a man named Jairus to Jesus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue; and falling at the feet of Jesus, he entreated him to come to his house, for he had an only daughter about twelve years of age, and she was dying. And it happened as he went that he was pressed upon by the crowds. And a certain woman who for twelve years had had a hemorrhage, and had spent all her means on physicians, but could not be cured by anyone, came up behind him and touched the tassel of his cloak; and at once her hemorrhage ceased. And Jesus said, Who touched me? But as all were denying it, Peter, and those who were with him, said, Master, the crowds throng and press upon you, and you ask Who touched me? But Jesus said, Someone touched me; for I perceived that power had gone forth from me. But the woman, seeing that she had not escaped notice, came up trembling, and falling down at his feet, declared in the presence of all the people why she had touched

10 him, and how she had been healed instantly. And he said to her, Daughter, thy faith has saved thee; go in peace. While he was yet speaking, there came one from the house of the ruler of the synagogue, saying to him, Your daughter is dead; do not trouble him. But Jesus on hearing this word answered the father of the girl, Do not be afraid; only have faith and she shall be saved. And when he came to the house, he allowed no one to enter with him, except Peter and James and John, and the girl s father and mother. And all were weeping and mourning for her. But he said, Do not weep; she is asleep, not dead. And they laughed at him, knowing that she was dead. But he, taking her by the hand, cried out, saying, Girl, arise! And her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately. And he directed that something be given her to eat. And her parents were amazed, but he charged them to tell no one what had happened. لوقا -41 :8 57 في ذلك الزمان دنا الى يسوع انسان اسمه ياي يروس وهو ري يس للمجمع وخ ر عند قد مي يسوع وجعل يتض رع اليه ان يدخل الى بيته. لا ن له ابنة وحيدة لها نحو اثنتي عشرة سنة قد أ شرفت على الموت. وبينما هو م نطلق كان الجموع يزح مونه. وا ن ام أر ة بها ن زف دم منذ اثنتي عشرة سنة وكانت قد أ نف ق ت معيشت ها كل ها على الا ط باء ولم ي ستط ع أ حد ان يشفي ها د نت من خ لف ه وم ست ه دب ثوبه. وللوقت وقف نزف دم ها. فقال يسوع: م ن لمس ني وا ذ أ نكر الجميع قال بطرس والذين معه: يا معل م إ ن الجموع ت حيق بك وت ضايق ك وتقول م ن لمسني فقال يسوع: قد لمسني واحد فاني شعرت بق وة قد خرجت مني. فل ما أرت الم أر ة أ نها لم تخف جاء ت مرتعدة وخ رت له وأخبر ته أ مام الشعب كل ه لا ية عل ة لمس ته وكيف ب ر ي ت لساعتها. فقال لها: ث قي يا ابنة ايمان ك أ بر أ ك اذهبي بسلام. وفيما هو ي تكلم جاء واحد من عند ري يس المجم ع وقال له: إن ابنت ك قد ماتت فلا ت تعب الم علم. فسم ع يسوع فا جابه قاي لا : لا ت خف آم ن فقط فتخلص. ول ما جاء الى البيت لم ي د ع أ حدا ي دخل معه إ لا بطرس ويعقوب ويوح نا وأ با الصب ية وأ مها. وكان الجميع ي بكون ويلطمون عليها. فقال: لا تبكوا انها لم ت م ت بل هي ناي مة. فجعلوا يضحكون منه ل علمهم با نها قد ماتت. أ ما هو فا مسك بيد ها ونادى قاي لا : يا صب ية قومي. فر ج ع ت روح ها وقامت في الحال فا مر با ن ت عطى طعاما. فد ه ش أ بواها وأ وصاه ما أ ن لا يقولا لا حد ما جرى.
