I am grateful to God for such edifying videos that you all share with us. I believe much effort, dedication and labour go into them, yet at the same time, they are rightly simple and light. I shall even begin to show as clips for homeschooling, after discussion. Also love the endings. I don't favour this kind of tea either. But I look forward to know what it is you all are drinking.
The Coptic Church still uses their own calendar (for liturgical purposes) based on the ancient Egyptian calendar and the year count is from the start of the reign of Deocleatian and are given the abbreviation of AM (Anno Martyrum).
raise one finger. how many finger are there raised? one? or zero? the age of a person is the number of full years completed. so a one year old has lived one full year. BUT if we were to number the first year of his life, before he completed it, thus before he turned one it would be the first year of his life , ie year ONE counting the first in any series as zero was always logically absurd., it only started with computers where the 0 of 0-9 was given more meaning than is valid
Hi Mr Patristix. I enjoy your videos. You might like my new book Best Christian Art; subtitle Aesthetic Christianity. It's nondenominational. I meant to say it's Christian art in general, and not just Catholic art. I'm going to make yt videos about all the chapters. About 1 per day. I'm a neuroradiologist who occasionally writes about art and literature. I mostly make videos about nutrition and health at my yt channel Peter Rogers MD.
Actually the one tht started AD for Jesus was someone else. His name was Dionysius Exiguus a Romanian Saint in the Orthodox and Catholic church when the church used to still be one. Lived in AD 475-544. As for BC, The Venerable Bede came up with tht part of the dating system.

I purchased a mug last night. You can always use a good mug and I wanted to show appreciation for this channel. Spend the past few days watching the entire library.
As strange as it may sound to many. I am sure Dionysius Exiguus is absolutely correct in calculating the incarnation of Lord God Messiah. He was dilligent, very intelligent, highly educated and so much closer to the events than our modern day scholars. He probably had sources available to him that are obscure and unknown to us and/or probably destroyed by now.
I get confused with the "Before the Present" B.P. System which starts in A.D 1950, according to Archaeologists. So 3000 B.P. is 1050 B.C. I'm confused. I need a lager and an aspirin. Grace and Peace upon you both. ☦️
@@PatristixI was just going to say…you sound English until the suffixes, and long e sounds. Very interesting. My Romanian co-worker who’s from Constanta loved this video and he’s hardly ever excited about things. 😅
I really appreciate your mini shows. They're good to get a quick understanding. But it'd be good if we could have longer details that's longer for bedtime, where we can think.😊
"Dennis:" is the proper translation of the name Dionysius and i was always lead to believe that his name meant Dennis the short, but this i read somewhere and i cannot vouch for it HOWEVER I have one question: was he wrong to put the death of Herod at 4 BC? After all he ordered the massacre of the innocents after Jesus was born in an attempt to kill Him or have we misunderstood his system do co regencies between Herod and any of his son's or successors skew the date
I believe that is because the actual dating of the system is 4-5 years ahead of where it should be. That is to say that the saint was off by that many years in his estimate of when the incarnation happened. Which, to me, is amazing, that he got it so close when probably very few people around were keeping track, and he would, most likely, have to make an educated guess, and he was only off by a few years. Herod the Great, I believe, died the same year, or one year after, our Lord Jesus Christ was born. I can't exactly remember, I'm still new to reading the Bible and haven't memorized much of it yet haha
Secularists: “Haha it’s BCE/CE now”
Christians: Sweet thanks. Before Christ’s Era and Christ’s Era.
Secularists: Nooo!
Ahah good one brother 😂💯

Even when I was an atheist I thought it was ridiculous pandering to use CE & BCE. Now, as an Orthodox, I see it as blatantly insulting.
I always wondered why there wasn't a year 0. Now I know
raise one finger. how many finger are there raised? one? or zero?
the age of a person is the number of full years completed. so a one year old has lived one full year. BUT if we were to number the first year of his life, before he completed it, thus before he turned one it would be the first year of his life , ie year ONE

@@onceamusician5408 I already said "now I know." And Patristix's explanation was far better
Wonderful video! Praise God for Dionysius Exiguus!
Amen! A great saint
BC and AD >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> “bce” and “ce”
If someone still uses bce and ce, we can say, "Before Christ's Era & Christ's Era". :)
Dionysius Exiguus was Daco-Roman (proto romanian)
Thank you for another wonderful video! And also for your honest tea review. ;)
Ha ha yes, we didn't really enjoy that one.
There is also no year zero because zero literally means nothing and a year is decidedly something. 😁
This was interesting. I knew what A.D. stood for, but I had never heard of Dionysius Exiguus before.

Thank you for the history and information.
I find it easier to use BC and AD.

There is actually a very funny louis ck skit about the calendar. "Death to the infidels! In the year of our lord 2014"
As strange as it may sound to many. I am sure Dionysius Exiguus is absolutely correct in calculating the incarnation of Lord God Messiah.
He was dilligent, very intelligent, highly educated and so much closer to the events than our modern day scholars.

So well made! I'm humbled by the teaching of humbleness
Who is the genius who made "Patristix?!"😊
Why hasn’t the Catholic Church canonized him?
Can i comment on christians being annoyed? Because thats mad annoying
Thanks for the explanation. Wow!
Thank you for another great video!!
Thanks for watching!

That... sounds very confusing. Hadn't heard of that but it sounds like an awful idea 😆
Denis the short was only four years off! Not bad!!
☦️☦️☦️
Very very cool ☦️
a genius or a nerd :? :/
Of course, most admit that Jesus' birth was probably a little earlier, about 3 BC.
In fact 4 BC. This is because Herod the Great is thought to have died in 4 BC and he ordered the Massacre of the Innocents (Matthew 2:16-18)
Just found your channel recently. What accent is that?
A mix of several places we've lived! Lately it's been sounding increasingly Australian though
@@PatristixI was just going to say…you sound English until the suffixes, and long e sounds. Very interesting.

This saint is a pretty huge contribution to world history! All Romanians should be proud
nice video
I HATE modern calendar usage 😡😡😡😡 another great vid mate!😢
Now, when I come across C.E., I’ll think “Christ on Earth”. It feels a little better. 😊
@@kaybrown4010 I like to think of it as BCE Before Christian Era, CE Christian Era!!!
Thanks for the clear & concise explanation, also the tea / fruit commentary at the conclusion. Watching from Northern Europe.🧊🧊🧊📦📦📦
I really appreciate your mini shows. They're good to get a quick understanding. But it'd be good if we could have longer details that's longer for bedtime, where we can think.😊
How did Dionysius calculate when the incarnation was?
Always thought it ment "after death“
"Dennis:" is the proper translation of the name Dionysius
and i was always lead to believe that his name meant Dennis the short,
but this i read somewhere and i cannot vouch for it
HOWEVER I have one question:
was he wrong to put the death of Herod at 4 BC? After all he ordered the massacre of the innocents after Jesus was born in an attempt to kill Him
or have we misunderstood his system
do co regencies between Herod and any of his son's or successors skew the date
