Inside the Ethiopian Orthodox Church | with Dn. Henok Elias (Ethiopia #4)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 июн 2024
- Dn. Henok Elias is an Ethiopian Orthodox Christian and has a RUclips channel called Philosophy of Art & Science. Many listeners recommended I talk with him for an insider perspective on the particulars of Ethiopian Orthodox traditions. See below for links to the universal history symbolism about Ethiopia I’ve discussed with Richard Rohlin that led up to this conversation.
Dn. Henok and I discuss his place in the church, training and poetry in the Ethiopian tradition, what his perspective is on the discussions about Ethiopia on this channel, patron saints, feasts, Lalibela churches as the “New Jerusalem”, the role of drum instruments in the Ethiopian church and finally I ask his opinion about the future role of Ethiopia in the universal history.

Adding my vote for a “part 2” - this was fascinating!
Saaaame
I want a series or atleast a trilogy of this
we did part deux on my channel ruclips.net/video/IN4YbcF1QWE/видео.html
I just found this, I haven't watched it yet
ruclips.net/video/IN4YbcF1QWE/видео.html
I am from Ethiopia, u don't know how deep is, our orthodox tewhdo religion, u will amazed.
I love our Orthodox Churches and it's traditions. Thank you both for this wonderful conversation. Yes Geez is not dead indeed.
I recently heard a priest in Jamaica say that not only is the ark in Ethiopia, but the greater portions of the cross as well.
While the Vatican controls the Titulus and the Shroud. I’m of the opinion that God Himself burned the Shroud as a protest against Rome’s feeble response to Venetian mercenaries sacking Constantinople. Innocent 3rd was a coward, at BEST.
Anyway, as the Vatican plumbs new depths of heresy, I worry that God may just Destroy these Most Holy of relics than suffer them remaining in increasingly unholy environments.
The Cross should all be reunited.
Yes, the right side of the cross is in Gishen Mariam, Ethiopia.
@@meronaberraabebe9615 Interesting that it's the right side.
But they say Christianity is the white man's religion 🙄
It is believed that the Holy Grail is also found in Ethiopia. In Saint Uriel Monastery!
For the sake of a lowly farmer trapped in his tractor, please post these as audio podcasts when the video comes out. I cant use all my data on the video, but I also cant wait a month for the audio to come out. Grateful for all the content, thanks for all you do!
We are working to catch up with the videos by the end of the month. Starting November, they should come out at the same time.
@@JonathanPageau Much appreciated! Thanks for the reply, and again thanks for all the content.
@@JonathanPageau can you talk to (deacon gorgoriyos dejene) to correct and elaborate to some points you can get him by searching his names
Bro I listen in my tractor too!
Absolutely love it, data scientist in Pageau College with farmers! The way life should be.
Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahdo Church will be preached to the entire world sooner. and it shall be, for the sake of this world. This world deserve to be saved with the truth.
እግዚአብሔር ይባርክህ 🙏🏿 !
አሜን
love from et for Greek/Russia orthodox Christians and also for other christens
I am definitely looking forward to hearing more about the Ethiopians! I am starved for connection to the rest of the world and history. It's like... we are meant to be connected or something.
As someone whose been attracted by everything foreign and exotic for basically all his life, I can tell you that the cultures we all come from (if you are American, Canadian or Australian that is your ancestor's culture), also hold a lot of hidden treasures, that much too often we haven't really taken the time to unearth yet.
This was a really wonderful conversation. I have enjoyed it very much, from beginning to end. Me and my wife got baptized into the Ethiopian Orthodox Church two years ago. First time I heard Deacon Henok Elias. Hope to hear more. And Jonathan, thanks for all that you do and for hosting such beautiful people. May God bless you both.
Glory to God! Halleluia
yideliwekimu (you all are worthy)
@@PhilosophyofArtandScience Thank you brother Henok. I look forward to see and here more from you. We live in Sweden btw. Have a blessed weekend : )
@@PhilosophyofArtandScience Deacon Henok, are you familiar with Ato Mekonnen Zewdie and the Jerusalem Association? I was born here in 1980 and attended OCA ROCOR churches but he was my is my grandfather. I'd love to hear more about what you might know about his work within the Ethiopian church. Thanks and God Bless
@@alexandervajda7308 very interesting story you have, and i would like to know more but do not.
How can you still have a non Christian name if you are baptized ??? That isn't our tradition at all.
Even growing up in Ethiopia I hadn't realized that the drum tradition wasn't universally accepted. Thank you for interviewing someone actually educated in Ethiopian Orthodoxy about its practices!
Yes most of us have no clue because the church doesn't educate rather increases the number of believers that are ignorant in what they believe in. ( Bado imnet)
@@werqzeleke2815 Wow you've just summed up in one sentence what I've been frustrated with for a very long time
Thanks for the conversation! It would be very interesting to have his interpretation of the Book of Enoch and how it influences Ethiopian Christianity.
"It would be very interesting to have his interpretation of the Book of Enoch and how it influences Ethiopian Christianity."
Feel similar about 'Ezra' and the veneration of Uriel.
This sparked so much JOY in me!!! I think of our Thursday hymns that lift up the work of the apostles,”Their voices have gone out into all the earth and their words to the ends of the world!”
There seems to be so little about Ethiopia from English-language books, so these podcasts are some of the best resources I have for learning about Ethiopia. I definitely encourage a part 2.
There’s a good book called I need answers by dawit muluneh about Ethiopian orthodox Christianity in English if you’re interested
ruclips.net/video/HtiysGRmkUI/видео.html
@@Gypsy2211What about Ethiopian History?
@@magistradox39there is a book hopless romantic by dn dawit
Ethiopian Orthodox is mesmerizing.
Oh man, I was kind of hoping this conversation would happen. Elias is pretty amazing.
Ethiopians don't answer surnames but first names when being addressed so his name is Henok not Elias.
Thanks!
Interesting conversation. Keep it up
Fantastic conversation. Deacon Henok is a light within the Orthodox community.
Will you interview Dean Arnold, author of "Unknown Empire: The True Story of Mysterious Ethiopia and the Future Ark of Civilization?" That book got me fascinated about Ethiopia.
Another vote for part 2! I would love to hear more from this end of the Orthodox world.
here you go ruclips.net/video/IN4YbcF1QWE/видео.html
You should invite someone from Georgian Orthodox Church
Georgia is one of the most interesting and rad countries!!! I'm sure an episode on Queen Tamar would be interesting.
Would love a part 2 with Dn Henok. Maybe with Rohlin next time!
Yes for part 2!!!! This is amazing.
Wow, I was *Really shocked* when you talked about the byzantine story about the prophecised emperor at the end.
I have never thought it being something that prominent in people around that area too. Because that is a very significant and even defining prophecy of the entire Ethiopian history. Even the most famous emperor of Ethiopia Emperor Tewodros(Theodore) II that united modern Ethiopia was influenced by this prophecy to the extent of changing his name from "Kasa" to "Tewodros(Theodore)", the name that the prophecised comming emperor is thought have. He also did it to make people believe he is the uniting king prophecized, since this was a very powerful and widely known prophecy in the Ethiopian christians. The fact that Dn. Enoch hasn't heard much about is because he has lived all his life in US, and the church keeps this in silence since many people get easily carried away and misled rather than focusing on salvation, just like the deciples were carried away and always asking Jessus about his coming and the end of time.
This is a very significant prophecy that is written in many books since thousands of years. This interestingly also includes a Roman book named "Prophecy/Vision of Sabela" that told the story of 100 people having the same dream revelation in one night in Rome, and a prophet named "Sabela" interpreting their dreams, which described the worst calamity that is yet to come and the emperor from Ethiopia that would restore God's kingdom and righteousness to the world.
as stated in the book of Uriel (dirsane urael in amharic), Ezra Sutuel, during his conversation with the angel Uriel was told a lot of details about this prophecy from the angel too. Father Heriacos (I don't remember his name in English), a bishop from Constantinople was the one who sent this book containing this conversation to Ethiopia to be translated to geez, and the book is now called "Dirsane Urael". This prophecy is also well stated in the book "Vision of sinoda(shinoda)", an Egyptian father that saw a vision of all this.
Before the Islamic invasion of Egypt, a martyr named Fiktor had also spoken of this prophecy when christians in Egypt were heartbroken when they heard the prophecy that all churches in that area would be destroyed by an invading religion. he spoke of the emperor's prophecy to condole them about what is to come after the islamic invasion, he told them the emperor would himself step on that land and restore christianity as never before. After this prophecy, the Islamic invasion did happen, and what is awaited is the rise of the christian emperor.
Even in Islam, the quran states that the stone of mecca will be destroyed by an Ethiopian. They call him "Zul-Suwayqatayn" and states it will signify the end times.
But I want to stress that this is not a prophecy about the end of the world. But rather one of the prophecies that happen before comming of Jessus. such as the brief period of peace of thousand years stated in rev:19 (I believe its most related to this one), the rise of the anti christ, war of gog magog,... I believe it is in sequence with them, though I don't know where it could be.
This was well written and explained, thank you for sharing. I have heard of the lists of books you mentioned that recited this same prophecy. The Islam one took be by surprise. This is indeed an interesting topic. Do you believe the emergence of this Emperor is near?
@@yohannes6434 Yeah, there are numerous other books that talk about this. But about the time of the happening, I don't think there can be any clear timeline for that (only God knows). And it's for that reason that this is kept silent in the Ethiopian church, and the church wants to suppress any discussion on this. Since attempts are seen to exploit this, and many misleading things have been said about the time.
Though I can only be sure that I can't ever be sure about the time, many fathers have implied the current war has a significant meaning in the timeline. In fact, almost everyone in Ethiopia has been hearing about a coming war, hunger, and pandemic since 30 years ago, and especially since 5 years ago. Some fathers had also called for storage pest resistant crops and salt to be stored at the monasteries. And the pandemic hit first which no one had any expectation of, then the war, and hunger is starting through all this.
Though there has been war in every generation in Ethiopia, This one has been the deadliest in the entire Ethiopian history. This is because of the ethnic color of the war which has made it a matter of every citizen forcing everyone to be is a fighter and a target. And believe me, since I am there, there is no near end to it, this is just a fragment of what is yet to come. There is no reconcilable cause or negotiable term, since It's all ethnic and even more other ethnic clashes are rising. With the hundreds of millions killed until now, Sadly facts state that it's only the beginning.
All this seems to match to the war described in the prophecies with all its looks. And many fathers that have never met betfore, including Aba ze wengel have said there will be a renaissance of Ethiopia spiritually and as a God's strong kingdom after this.
I personally believe this is the case and have been preparing with redemption and prayers since they began to speak.
I don't dare say I am (or even can be) sure about the time, but am ready to accept anything that God brings, while making preparation with repentance and prayers as our fathers have been crying to do so.
@@merebhayl5826 I actually come to know this prophecy about two years ago. Especially when word got around that Aba Ze wengel passed away.
I found this summarized post on the prophecy recently. Let me know what your thought is on this.

This prophecy has been circulating the past few years on social media, This was why I asked you about if the arrival of the said king is near per your resources. Plus this are very scary if all the said prophecies are to come true in the order it is written. I am 18 years old, entering adulthood, and I don't want to think of this as the future because this is pure apocalypse even though there might be a good ending, It is very troubling especially if my heart is not where God wants me to be. Lord Jesus have Mercy on us! Holy Mother of God, intercede for us!
Sounds cool
As a fellow Coptic believer, I remember reading this "vision of Shenoute" many years ago, and the significant role of the Ethiopian nation in it. I dont remember much from it, but that it was spectacular and mysterious. Today, I imagine if I looked up St. Shenouda's prophecy, I will be able to find it again, but I am glad to hear that Ethiopians are well aware of this as well.
Thanks for doing this.
Fantastic interview!
Absolutely wonderful episode!
This is astounding! Please post more!
I love this. Keep going!
Excellent, Looking forward to parts 2, 3 and...
Fascinating guys! Thanks!
This was very interesting. Thank you!
God bless Ethiopia. I did not know that you guys were under US opression as well, but Im glad you are becoming free.
Another good one Jonathan!! 👍
Would loved to have heard Henok’s quibbles with the original episodes. More please!

high praise! thank you.
Glad to see you guys finally chat!!
thanks for the agitation and connection
I’m so happy to have found you. What a blessing.
May god bless you!

Thank you for this Very Informative video
More Please!
Freakin fascinating interview!
Very interesting
I learned a lot from this beautiful conversation. Please continue with part 2. Keep up the amazing Ethiopian Orthodox talks. I'd love to hear a conversation on the Book of Enoch and the Book of Jubilees. Thanks again!

@@PhilosophyofArtandScience thanks Dn. Henok :)
As an Ethiopian this has been an extremely interesting conversation to follow. Thank you Deacon Henok and Jonathan. Looking forward to part 2.
If you guys made a part 2, please talk about the use and influence of the Book of Enoch and the Book of Jubilees in the theology, liturgy etc., of the tewahedo church.
we missed that, but maybe for part 3. here's part deux ruclips.net/video/IN4YbcF1QWE/видео.html
I am Jamaican and I have been spreading Enoch gospel everywhere I go
Love all of the convos! keep it up!
Part two please! And I’m sure you could do a part three and a part four! Would love to hear more about the Canon.

I just seen a bunch of Ethiopians standing up to soldiers to protect the church that holds the arc glad it’s still there.
Absolutely beautiful. Deacon Henok (great to meet you!) brings gentle, deep, sacred, learned realness, PLUS Pageau's deeply iconic nomadicism;) (i see 3 meanings!) is priceless. Hey, new topic idea: Russian Manly Orthodox Revival info is new!, how does it combine with Ethiopian Revival? What can we expect? And do we all now understand why the DS is so obsessed with destroying Russia?!
Thanks
Never forget the mighty Eritreans!!
Amen
This was amazing! May Christ our Lord bless Ethiopia and preserve His people. I would like to know what is the rationale behind the ark being in Ethiopia after having been accidentally smuggled in by the son of Solomon, as the writings of the prophets make clear that the ark in Jerusalem really had the divine presence (therefore not being a fake) which left soon before the Babylonians destroyed the kingdom of Judah. Plus, for the rest of the Orthodox world, per 2 Maccabees, Jeremiah hid the ark from the Babylonians. Also, I would like to know more about some major Ethiopian texts that are part of the broader canon (like the Ethiopian Clementine epistles) or are extra-canonical (like the Book of the Rooster).
May the Ethiopian Church reunite with the Orthodox Church.
Nope may the Ethiopians lead
Fantastic Conversation...looking up Issac the Syrian. Link to the book you mentioned?
Edit: Crikey! I watch this video and then Ethiopia literally comes apart at the seams. Trying to understand what is going on there...perhaps get you Dn. Henok Elias back on to talk about it would help. I don't trust the corporate media one iota.
Part 2 please!!!
part deux ruclips.net/video/IN4YbcF1QWE/видео.html
So I thought drama during worship was just an evangelical thing. Liturgical plays? Love it!
WOW!!! This was such a GREAT interview. It was very interesting, inspiring, instructive, and illuminating. I'm very interested in learning more about Ethiopian Orthodox spirituality . Maybe have Deacon Henok Elias or Deacon Dawit Muluneh (Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church) on your program to discuss Ethiopian Orthodox view on Scriptures, Atonement/ The Cross, Theology, Hell, Confession, Spiritual Formation / Discipleship, and available English Resources written by Ethiopian Orthodox?? (9/17/22)
The one thing that we have as prepared and once delivered is the sermon. Not nearly as stylized of course...
The Serbians have family saints and village saints
We have the 40 day fast before Nativity, the Mary holiday, the connected Nativity and Theophany feasts, the one day fast before Theophany, etc... These are ancient traditions common to all of us
Deacon I’d very knowledgeable
This is so cool. My concept of the body of Christ just got bigger.
አሜሪካን ተወልደክ አድገክ የሚገርም እውቀት እድሜ ጨምሮ ዪስጥክ::
amen
It's Henok, like "hey" and "yolk" with an N in the middle haha otherwise love both you guys glad both worlds finally came together!🙏🏾
i anglicized the pronunciation for him to make it easier! but yes hey or hay and nok like yolk or folk.
This makes the Lion of Judah ring I got from my grandparents (a gift to my grandfather as a wedding present) even more impressive... I didn't realize that the monarchy was that old.
I need to know more now... My grandma is from Asmara, so what is now Eritrea, and that lineage is Tigrinya.
I think what's also funny is that I always felt like I was an oddball and like my mom is also an oddball, but I think the more I learn about Eritrea and Ethiopia, the more a lot of my stuff makes sense, particularly the philosophical meshing of art, science and philosophy, and really having this tendency to not see these things at ends with each other even from a very early age. I think my grandma described Ethiopians as such.
I've been fascinated by learning more about the Ethiopian and Eritrean Orthodox churches in part because there are traditions that stretch back so far from another branch of Christianity, like it's an incredibly important aspect of it.
My great grandma was in the Eritrean Orthodox church if I recall correctly. My grandma is Catholic (Italian, from that colonization). My dad used to be Lutheran, his parents still are, so I've got a pretty wide swath of Christianity in my background, though I'm pretty well disconnected from the Eritrean Orthodox and I was baptized in the Catholic church.
I think the way you describe the relationship with priests kind of makes the way my grandma is with Christianity makes more sense. She always knows the priests as friends, rather than just attending Church! Hah.
Even so... I really wish I was more connected with this part of my lineage. My grandmother kind of cut off a lot of that stuff, did stuff like straighten my mom's hair at an early age, stuff like that.
@JonathanPageau I would love to see you have Dr.Meskerem Lechisa on as your guest. I'm sure she has some very interesting things to share about Ethiopia and related prophesies etc. I think that will be an interesting conversation if it happens. She has a RUclips channel called Utopia but it's all in Amharic. I'm not sure if she has English content that you can look at. But this episode was 🔥 Thank you!
ask him about the four schools and how they learn and master it plus how the monks llive(their food shelter)
Thanks to our forefathers who blend the Bible in to our day today life!!!
I like to add that the chanting and melody inside of the church partitions (priests standing on different levels of the church) by the minor priests and the continuous exchange of poetry like scripture recitation of glorifying the names and doings of God, including the use of the incenses and the cistra has its origin in the interior of ancient Israelite temple by the levites.
Absolutely incredible, thank you. I would love to hear if women play any kind of a unique role in the liturgical tradition.
they play no unique role outside of ancient practice of deaconesses for baptismal aid. throughout the ages a small minority of women have become senior students and professors of the trad schools of poetry, scripture, and liturgy. today, there maybe 20 or less such professors.
Thanks for your reply!
This is the shortest one hour ever, I really enjoyed ur conversation. You should do this again, and say something about the cross of Jesus Christ.
I require more

But for the ‘Grace of God Go I’ Is my favourite quote. Even before my journey towards Christ.
I have been digging into bible translations and trying to learn about the different text families. Read tonight the a text of the septuagint was translated into Coptic in about 200 AD, making that the oldest copy available, as far as I can tell. Occurred to me that the Ethiopian scriptures might be the oldest we have, yet nobody is talking about that. It's all about the Greek, the Latin. etc., and none are as old as 200 AD, not complete copies anyway. I am intrigued and wanting to get my hands on a copy of the ethiopian bible. Coptic and Ethiopian churches may be different. I have much to learn.
It’s absolutely true what he’s explaining. It’s very interesting it’s also true I can witness in my own family DNA shows over 50% Jewish heritage. That’s also true and middle eastern heritage. I think that’s why Ethiopian are Semite. Very interesting history of Ethiopian and Ethiopia.
I hope the old culture will survive there’s a lots of influence and threats from outsiders.
Wonderful! Is there an online source for learning the script of Ge'ez?
To add on the 'The last Emperor' segment,their are writings in connection between Ethiopia,an Emperor and the last days. Specifically a book called ፍካሬ ኢየሱስ(Prophecies of Jesus or God). A book of Jesus' or God's teachings to his apostles during his time on earth. Apostles enquiry about the last days to be exact. Theirs a part that mentions the rise of a glorious king from the east.
I'm very curious about that, where can one find more info about this book?
Bro how do you type that language?
@@calebvoyles4579 Try to find an Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church near you and ask one of the Priests.
@@nicholaspino1679 it's Amharic. The official language of Ethiopia. I'm a native speaker.
Very interesting informative conversation. Our orthodox faith has a variety of traditions.
