13 You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt lose its savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is good for nothing any more but to be cast out, and to be trodden on by men.Vos estis sal terrae. Quod si sal evanuerit, in quo salietur? ad nihilum valet ultra, nisi ut mittatur foras, et conculcetur ab hominibus. 14 You are the light of the world. A city seated on a mountain cannot be hid.Vos estis lux mundi. Non potest civitas abscondi supra montem posita, 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but upon a candlestick, that it may shine to all that are in the house.neque accedunt lucernam, et ponunt eam sub modio, sed super candelabrum, ut luceat omnibus qui in domo sunt. 16 So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.Sic luceat lux vestra coram hominibus : ut videant opera vestra bona, et glorificent Patrem vestrum, qui in caelis est. 17 Do not think that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets. I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.Nolite putare quoniam veni solvere legem, aut prophetas : non veni solvere, sed adimplere. 18 For amen I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot, or one tittle shall not pass of the law, till all be fulfilled.Amen quippe dico vobis, donec transeat caelum et terra, jota unum aut unus apex non praeteribit a lege, donec omnia fiant. 19 He therefore that shall break one of these least commandments, and shall so teach men, shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven. But he that shall do and teach, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.Qui ergo solverit unum de mandatis istis minimis, et docuerit sic homines, minimus vocabitur in regno caelorum : qui autem fecerit et docuerit, hic magnus vocabitur in regno caelorum.Bede was a Benedictine, a holy monk of Jarrow, in the eighth century. He was of great learning and was famous in Christian literature. He died A.D. 735.

Francis passes away; "Christ's word does not pass away." The frank statement of Viganò. What will follow Francis: Extreme Modernism? Semi-Catholicism? The powerful prophecy of Saint Bede.

Near-death experiences (NDEs) captivate people across religious and secular backgrounds, but how do they align with Catholic teaching? In this episode, Fr. Edward Looney sits down with Catholic author Scott L. Smith to explore NDEs from a faith-based perspective. They discuss the seven medical stages of NDEs—disembodiment, tunnel experiences, the Being of Light, life reviews, and more—while also diving into biblical accounts, the writings of saints like Bede the Venerable and St. Gregory the Great, and Marian visionaries who've had glimpses of the afterlife. The conversation also highlights the Catholic call to pray for the dead, including insights from Sondra Abrahams' NDE, where she encountered souls in purgatory. Can NDEs help us prepare for our own death? What does the Church say about these experiences? Tune in for a fascinating discussion on faith, science, and the mysteries of the afterlife.

Rita, the host of Catholic Girl on the Radio, discussed Mark chapter 10, verses 28-31, emphasizing the importance of understanding God's word and letting go of attachments to deepen one's spiritual connection. She explored various commentaries and personal experiences to illustrate the challenges and rewards of prioritizing faith over worldly ties. Rita concluded by highlighting the spiritual nature of rewards promised to disciples and the potential for persecution in the face of faith. 00:00 Exploring Mark Chapter 10 VersesRita, the host of the Catholic Girl on the Radio show, discussed Mark chapter 10, verses 28-31, focusing on the Gospel of St. Mark. She emphasized the importance of understanding the Word of God and delving into its deeper meaning. Rita also invited listeners to join her in a prayer, seeking the grace to be attentive to God's word and to gain a deeper understanding of their relationship with Him. She expressed her belief that one can only truly know oneself through God, who created them. 02:18 Letting Go of Attachments for ChristRita discussed the importance of letting go of even small attachments, using Peter's example of leaving everything to follow Jesus. She emphasized that these attachments can emotionally bind us, hindering our connection with Christ. She also examined the story of the rich man, highlighting that while he did not leave everything, his reward would have been greater if he had followed Jesus. 05:28 Letting Go of Small AttachmentsRita discussed the importance of letting go of small attachments that bind us emotionally, which can hinder our spiritual growth. She used the example of coffee addiction and the practice of giving up small things during Lent. Rita emphasized that it's not the quantity of what we give up, but the willingness to let go, that matters. She shared her personal practice of reflecting on her failures before confession to identify areas where she needs to let go. Rita concluded by stating that the more frequently we practice letting go of small attachments, the easier it becomes to not build attachment to the big things. 11:33 Jesus' Call for Spiritual LoveRita discussed Clement of Alexandria's commentary on a biblical verse, emphasizing Jesus' call for disciples to love God more than their own lives. Rita clarified that Jesus' words were not about literal hatred for family members but about prioritizing the spiritual over the earthly. She explained that Jesus' message was counterintuitive to societal norms, encouraging detachment from earthly ties to focus on the deeper, spiritual love offered by God. 15:55 Faith, Persecution, and Spiritual FamilyRita discusses the concept of giving up possessions and loved ones for Christ, emphasizing the importance of remaining faithful during persecution and tribulations. She explains that those who follow Christ often find a new spiritual family that supports them, even in times of hardship. Rita shares a personal testimony of a man who experienced healing at Lourdes, France, after suffering from a knee injury, highlighting the power of faith and the potential for miracles.21:13 Exploring Faith, Miracles, and RewardsRita discussed the story of St. Bernadette and Ernie Negrete, emphasizing God's role as a healer and provider of miracles. She also highlighted the blessings of obedience and the hospitality Christians receive from other believers. Rita then shared commentaries from St. Bede and St. John Cassian, discussing their perspectives on faith and rewards. St. Bede argued against a literal interpretation of the "thousand years" in the Bible, suggesting a spiritual increase instead.27:10 Maintaining Zeal and Spiritual FocusRita discussed the importance of maintaining zeal and focus in one's spiritual journey, emphasizing the need to use knowledge of the Word of God as a foundation for faith rather than a facade.

Today, I'm thrilled to welcome one of my favorite historians, Alice Loxton, to the castle. We discuss her fascinating book 'Eighteen', which delves into the lives of historical figures when they were 18 years old. Alice shares her passion for medieval history and reveals how @history_alice came into being. We explore her unique approach to writing, imagining historical characters in modern settings to bring them to life. I was particularly intrigued by her diverse selection of characters, from Bede to Vivienne Westwood, and how she makes history accessible and engaging for everyone.00:22 Exploring Historical Layers01:04 The Book 'Eighteen' and Its Unique Approach04:13 Diverse Historical Figures09:49 Social Media and History18:04 Writing and Research Process25:37 Future PlansYou can hear more episodes of Lady Carnarvon's Official Podcasts at https://www.ladycarnarvon.com/podcast/New episodes are published on the first day of every month.
Read Online“Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were put around his neck and he were thrown into the sea.” Mark 9:42St. Bede, an early Church Father, states that “he who is great, whatever he may suffer, departs not from the faith; but he who is little and weak in mind looks out for occasions of stumbling.” In other words, the “little ones” here could be understood to be those who are weak in faith and are constantly looking for reasons to depart from the faith.Consider who might struggle with this tendency in your own life. Perhaps there is a family member who continually questions the practice of the faith, perhaps someone you know considers himself or herself a “fallen away Catholic.” According to St. Bede, these are the “little ones” of whom Jesus is speaking.When dealing with someone who appears to lack faith, expresses doubts and disagreements, is caught in a life of manifest sin, or has begun to walk away from the practice of the faith, there can be a temptation to criticize, argue or condemn. If this is a temptation you struggle with, then listen closely to Jesus' words: “Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin…” We cause those who are weak in faith to sin when we fail to show an abundance of virtue toward them during their struggles. Deep down, most people who are struggling with a life of sin or a weakness of faith do, in fact, have some faith. They do believe in God. But their faith is often easily shaken, and they can be easily pushed further away from God if we fail to exercise the necessary virtues of patience, compassion and mercy they need.With that said, we also have to avoid offering a “compassion” that is not grounded in the truth. On this point, St. Gregory states: “If a stumbling block is laid before men in what concerns the truth, it is better to allow the offense to arise, than that the truth should be abandoned.” In other words, it is not compassionate or merciful to show support for another in their error so as to make them feel good. The truth of the Gospel must never be abandoned; instead, that truth must always be offered with the greatest of charity, especially toward those “little ones” who are weak in faith.Reflect, today, upon the important balance that is necessary in the apostolic life. “Balance” does not mean compromise. Rather, it means that we seek to continually bring forth the full truth of the Gospel while also seeking to exercise the fullness of every virtue in the process. Do not become a stumbling block to others in the faith. Seek, instead, to lavish God's grace and mercy upon those in your life who need it the most. If you do, then many of those little ones will one day become truly strong in the grace and truth of our loving God.Most merciful Lord, You desire that all of Your children come to the full revelation of Your truth and mercy. Please use me as You choose to reach out to those who struggle with their faith and need to be treated with the utmost care. May I never be a stumbling block to them but always be a bridge to You and Your abundance of grace. Jesus, I trust in You.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

Rita Secauli hosted a radio show discussing the Gospel of Mark, focusing on the story of Jesus healing a demon-possessed man and its spiritual implications. She explored various themes including the power of faith, spiritual battles, God's will, and the importance of self-reflection and righteousness. Throughout the show, Rita incorporated insights from religious scholars, drew parallels to modern life, and emphasized the significance of seeking God's grace and resisting evil. 00:00 Gospel of Mark: Healing and Redemption She highlighted the man's unclean spirit, his inability to be bound, and his self-harming behavior. Jesus' encounter with the man led to the man's healing and the demons entering a herd of swine, causing them to drown. The townspeople, fearing the man's presence, asked Jesus to leave their region. The man, now healed, begged Jesus to accompany him, but Jesus instructed him to return home and share his story. The man complied, and his tale of Jesus' compassion spread throughout the Decapolis, causing amazement among the people. Rita concluded the show with a prayer, asking the Holy Spirit to guide them and cleanse them of their sins. She also mentioned St. Athanathius' commentary on the gospel. 04:43 Faith, Christ's Name, and Effective Connections Rita discussed the power of faith and the use of Christ's name to overcome evil spirits and achieve confidence in life. She used the analogy of knowing a powerful person to gain access to exclusive places, emphasizing the importance of utilizing one's connections effectively. 06:49 Jesus Christ's Power and Worship Rita discussed the spiritual battles and the power of Jesus Christ. She highlighted the difference between worshiping Jesus out of love and fear, using the example of the devil who worshipped Jesus out of fear. She also discussed the unbelief of the Jews who claimed that Jesus cast out demons by the power of the devil, and how this wouldn't make sense as the demons would not obey him. 11:15 St. Bede's Story and Symbolism Rita discussed the story of St. Bede, focusing on the unclean spirit that left a man and entered pigs, causing them to run into the sea. She interpreted the story as a reflection of the town's expulsion of evil and the bringing of distant people closer to God. 14:21 Contemplating Gospel of Mark and Church Rita expressed a desire to delve deeper into the text, emulating the contemplation of St. Bede. Rita also reflected on the rejection of Jesus by some people, likening it to modern-day situations like the media, and how Jesus sends those healed to be his testimony in those places. 19:13 Exploring God's Will and Consequences Rita discussed the concept of God's antecedent and consequent wills, emphasizing that God's original will is to bless and save all people, but he also allows for consequences due to human free will. She highlighted the importance of choosing virtue freely and seeking God's grace to become more virtuous. Rita also prayed for the opportunity to learn from God voluntarily, rather than through life's challenges. 26:47 Self-Reflection, Righteousness, and Spiritual Impact Rita discusses the importance of self-reflection and true righteousness, using the example of Jeremiah to illustrate how one righteous person can have a significant impact. 30:48 Jesus' Power to Heal and Resist Evil Rita discussed the Gospel of Mark and Luke, focusing on the story of a man possessed by demons. She emphasized Jesus' ability to heal the man and others, and how this demonstrates his power to heal all infirmities. 34:48Jesus' Healing and the Power of FaithRita discussed the story of Jesus healing a man possessed by demons, emphasizing the importance of faith and the potential for fear and rejection in the face of miracles. She highlighted the man's fear of losing friends and livelihood due to his association with Jesus, and the importance of humility in acknowledging the power of God.
In this second episode on St. Bede the Venerable (c. 673–735 AD), Dr. Papandrea talks about the literary legacy of this Doctor of the Church. Bede is not only considered the “father of English history,” but also the “father of English education.” Although he is now most famous for his Ecclesiastical History of England, his contribution to the Church is actually much greater than that.

The Thinking Fellows dive into the life and work of the Venerable Bede, one of the most influential figures in early Christian history. Often called the "Father of English History," Bede's Ecclesiastical History of the English People shaped our understanding of the Church's growth in Britain. This episode explores Bede's contributions to theology, historiography, and education, and considers how his work continues to inspire Christian scholarship today.

Send us a textIn this episode of Conversations with Bizzy, I reflect on the complexities of Thanksgiving and the emotional challenges that come with it. I discuss the unrealistic expectations set by media portrayals of holidays, the evolution of family dynamics over the years, and the importance of creating new traditions.

Send us a textAlthough I initially planned to take this week off, I needed to record some episodes that directly addressed the U.S. presidential election, so here we are.For the next few podcast episodes, I'm chatting with women who, like me, are deeply affected by the election results, and still navigating through their sadness. I especially wanted to speak with women who, like me, are narcissistic abuse survivors directly triggered by Donald Trump's win. On today's episode, I welcome Skye Polk. Skye is a Dallas-Fort Worth-based content creator focusing on raising awareness about chronic illness and mental health. Several years ago, Skye was diagnosed with a blood circulation disorder called postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, or POTS. She's also spent the past six years in narcissistic abuse recovery, having grown up with a narcissistic father. Skye's mission is to use her voice to help support others dealing with experiences similar to hers, so I'm thrilled that you all will hear our conversation.Connect with Skye:InstagramThreadsBlueSkyTikTokLearn more about POTSGretel Pod-Ponders Life and Loss with Bede and other guestsGretel le Maitre is an ordinary, curious lady who is about to lose her...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showGet my free download, "Discover Your Brand Voice in 3 Easy Steps"Follow me on Instagram, Threads, and BlueSkyListen to the podcast on YouTubePlease support the show by buying me a coffee!You can also reach me through my professional websiteIf you're interested in sharing your story on the podcast, please fill out this form.You can also drop me a line at hello@sareneleedswrites.com or DM me on Instagram.

The Venerable Bede was a monk who lived in Northumbria 1300 years ago, but his influence reached far beyond the confines of his monastic home. In fact, he is remembered today as the 'Father of English History'.

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants – things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John. 2. Who bore witness to the Word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw. [speaking of the Gospel of St. John] 3. Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near. Greeting to the Seven Churches 4. John, to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne, 5. and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, 6. and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever. Amen. (OSB) 7. Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen. 8. “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, says the Lord (God), who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” 10. I was in the Spirit on the Lord's Day and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet, 11. saying, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last.” And, “What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven churches which are in Asia: to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea. 12-13. Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands, and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band. New Material – from the Orthodox Study Bible 14-20. His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire; His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, as if refined in a furnace, and His voice as the sound of many waters; He had in His right hand seven stars, out of His mouth went a sharp two-edged sword, and His countenance was like the sun shining in its strength. And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last. I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death. Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will take place after this. The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in My right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands which you saw are the seven churches. 1:14. His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire OSB. Further, Christ is here described as God, His hair (v. 14) being that of Daniel's vision of God as the “Ancient of Days” (7:9; see also 1En 46:1). His eyes signify knowledge; His feet (v. 15), permanence and stability; His voice, authority or teaching; His right hand (v. 16), power; His two-edged sword, complete discernment. This imagery continues throughout Revelation to affirm the preexistence and eternal divinity of the Son of Man (see also Jn 1:1–18). Thus, in Christ man (v. 14) and God (vv. 15, 16) are united. St. Bede. 14. white. The antiquity and eternity of majesty are represented by whiteness on the head, to which all the chief ones adhere, as hairs, who, because of the sheep which are to be on the right hand are white, like wool, and because of the innumerable multitude of the white-robed and the elect, who come forth from heaven, are glistering like snow. eyes. The eyes of the Lord are preachers, who, with spiritual fire, bring light to the faithful, and to the unbelieving a consuming flame. Andrew of Caesarea. 1:14. His head and his hair were white as white wool, as snow, and his eyes as a flame of fire. For even though he is recent amidst us, nonetheless he is ancient; rather, he is before time. His white hair is a symbol of this. And his eyes are as a flame of fire, on the one hand, illuminating those who are holy and, on the other hand, burning the sacrilegious. 1:15. His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, as if refined in a furnace, and His voice as the sound of many waters; OSB. 1:15 Dan 2:31–44 indicates this mysterious metal foundation not only provides stability but has the ability to forcibly crush all opposition as well. These images are contrasted with the feet of clay found in Dan 2:33, 43: the kingdoms of this world are not permanent, nor ultimately triumphant. St. Andrew of Caesarea. 1:15a. And his feet were like glowing brass, red-hot as in a furnace. [21] The divine Gregory also understood that the feet meant the divine condescension through the flesh. For his feet by treading on the divinity achieved our salvation. The feet are also the foundations of the Church, like glowing brass, which physicians say is a sweet-smelling incense, which they call masculine incense. Or otherwise: On the one hand, meaning the human nature by the glowing brass, and on the other hand the divine nature by the incense, through both of which is also shown the sweetness of the faith and the unconfused union . Or the fine brass signifies the beautiful melody of the gospel proclamation, and the incense is the return of the nations by which the bride is summoned. And the feet of Christ are also the apostles, who have been tested by fire in the furnace of trials in imitation of their Teacher. 1:15b. And his voice like the sound of many waters. Naturally. His voice is in common with that of the Spirit, from which “rivers of living water flowed from the belly” of the faithful, and it made a penetrating sound over all the earth. St. Bede. 15. feet. By the “fiery feet” he means the Church of the last time, which is to be searched and proved by severe afflictions. For orichalcum is brass, which, by much fire and various ingredients, is brought to the colour of gold. Another translation, which renders it, “like orichalcum of Lebanon,” signifies that in Judæa, of which Lebanon is a mountain, the Church will be persecuted, and especially at the last. The temple also frequently received the name of Lebanon, as there is said to ito, “Open, O Lebanon, thy gates, and let the fire devour thy cedars.” voice. The voice of confession, and preaching, and praise does not resound in Judæa alone, but among many peoples. 1:16. He had in His right hand seven stars, out of His mouth went a sharp two-edged sword, and His countenance was like the sun shining in its strength. OSB: 1:16 The Lord holds the stars that represent the seven churches (1:20), and hence, the Church. For Christ is Lord of the Church. In His just judgment, the sword He wields is the Word of God, which cuts effortlessly to the very marrow and heart of humanity (see 2:16; 18:15; Is 11:4; 49:2; WSol 18:15; Eph 6:17; 2Th 2:9; Heb 4:12). The brilliance of His face recalls the Uncreated Light John saw radiating from the Savior at the Transfiguration on Mount Tabor. Andrew of Caesarea. 1:16. And he had in his right hand seven stars, and coming out from his mouth was a sharp, double-edged sword, and his appearance as the sun shines in its power. [22] Further down he says that the seven stars are the seven angels of the churches. The sharp, double-edged sword means his decision against the wicked, “sharper than any two-edged sword,” or the sword of the Spirit circumcising our inner man.38 Like the sun his face shines, not in a splendor to the senses, but to the intellect. For he is the “sun of righteousness,” shining with his own power and authority, not like the sensory sun, which as a created object by God-given power and divine command. St. Bede. 16. right hand. In the right hand of Christ is the spiritual Church. “On Thy right hand,” he says, “stood the queen in a vesture of gold.” And as it stands on His right hand, He saithq, “Come, ye blessed of My Father, receive the kingdom.” mouth. He, the Judge of all things visible and invisible, “after He has killed, has power to cast into hell fire.” countenance. Such as the Lord appeared on the Mount, will He appear after the judgment to all the saints, for at the judgment the ungodly will behold Him Whom they pierced. But all this appearance of the Son of Man belongs also to the Church, for He Himself was made the Christ in the same nature with it, and He gives to it a sacerdotal dignity and a judicial power, and to “shine as the sun in the kingdom of His Father.” 1:17-18. And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last. I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. OSB. 1:17, 18 Mortal humanity cannot bear the revelation of divine glory, a frequent biblical theme (see Ex 19:21; 33:20; Is 6:5). Just as he fell prostrate at Mount Tabor (Mt 17:6), so also does John here, in the presence of the glorified Savior (see Ezk 1:27; Dan 10:7–9; see also 1En 14:24). Do not be afraid is a revelatory formula from the OT. As a signal for the theophany, it was carried over into the NT (see the Annunciation, Lk 1:30; Jesus walking upon the water, Mt 14:27—“Fear not, I AM”; the Transfiguration, Mt 17:7). In the OT God was called “the first and the last” (Is 44:6; 48:12), and so, too, is the Messiah. Some early heresies (e.g. Docetism) held that Jesus only seemed to die. But the Lord Himself testified, I … was dead, affirming the authenticity of His death; alive forevermore, His Resurrection—the power of which effects His lordship over death and its realm. The Orthodox icon of the resurrected Christ depicts Him with these keys (v. 18) in hand, standing triumphantly on the open gates of Hades. Fr. John Farley. Like those receiving such theophanic appearances in Old Testament days (e.g. Ezek. 1:28; Dan. 8:17), John fell at His feet as if dead. Even though he had leaned in familiarity upon His breast at the Last Supper (John 13:23), yet such is the power of the Lord in His heavenly exaltation that even the beloved disciple is overwhelmed. The Lord restores him in preparation to write the things he has seen and will see. He tells John, “Do not be afraid,” and in this He tells all of John's churches not to fear. They need not fear death, martyrdom, or anything in all the world. Why? Because Christ has overcome the world, trampling down death by death. He became dead, but now He is alive to ages of ages. As such, He is the first and the last, sovereign over all (compare God as the Alpha and Omega in 1:8) and the Living One, the source of all life. He had authority over death and Hades by His Resurrection. Death cannot now separate us from Him, for He is Lord of both the living and the dead. St. Andrew of Caesarea. Christ revived the Apostle himself who had suffered through the weakness of human nature like Joshua son of Nun and Daniel, by saying to him, “Do not fear, for I have not come near to kill you, since I am beginningless and endless, having become dead for your sakes.” 1:18b. And I have the keys of Hades and of death. [23] Instead , he has authority over bodily and spiritual death. St. Bede. 17. I fell. As a man, he trembles at the spiritual vision, but his human fear is banished by the clemency of the Lord. the first. He is the first, because “by Him were all things made;” the last, because in Him are all things restoredu. 18. keys. Not only, He saith, have I conquered death by resurrection, but I have dominion also over death itself. And this He also bestowed upon the Church by breathing upon it the Holy Spirit, saying, “Whose sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them,” and the rest. 1:19. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death. Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will take place after this. OSB. John's visions have to do with both the present (things which are) and the future. Fr. John Finlay. Then Christ gives John a command: he is to write the things which he has seen, and the things which are, and the things which are about to happen after these things and send them to the main churches under his care in Asia. (From these seven main locations, they could be sent out to other smaller church communities as well.) This gives a basic outline of the Book of Revelation as a whole: it relates what John has seen (the vision of Christ in ch. 1), the things which are (the present state of the churches, described in chs. 2–3), and the things which are about to happen in the future (the prophecies of chs. 4–22). St. Andrew of Caesarea. [nothing] St. Bede. Reveal to all the things which thou alone hast seen, that is, the various labours of the Church, and that the evil are to be mingled in it with the good unto the end of the world. 1:20. The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in My right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands which you saw are the seven churches. OSB. The angels of the seven churches have been variously interpreted as being (1) the guardian angels of the church communities; (2) the pastoral leadership of these local churches; (3) a personification of the prevailing spirit of the given congregations; or (4) simply the messengers responsible for delivering the letters. The term “angel” (heavenly or earthly messenger) is used over 60 times in Revelation. Fr. John Farley. The introduction concludes with an explanation of the meaning of the seven stars in His hand and the seven lampstands among which He stands. The seven lampstands are the seven churches of Asia, and the seven stars are the angels of the seven churches. This is a reference to what may be termed the individual corporate personality of each church community. Each local church is thus portrayed as having an angel, even as each person has his guardian angel. Just as a person's guardian angel resembles that person (see those who reacted to the announcement that Peter was standing unexpectedly at the door by suggesting that it was not Peter but his angel; Acts 12:15), so the church's angel sums up and embodies the local church. The angel of the church is an image of the strengths and weaknesses of each church. In writing to the angel of the church of Ephesus, the Lord actually speaks to the church of Ephesus in its corporate aspect. We see this today as well, in that church communities have corporate characteristics—some are loving, some judgmental, some zealous, some lax. The reference to each church's “angel” is a way of addressing each community as a community, using the language of the apocalyptic. St. Andrew of Caesarea. Since Christ is the “true light,” because of this, those abundant in his light are lamps as they shine in the night of this present life. Naturally, the churches are called lampstands, because, as the luminaries, they “have the word of life” according to the Apostle. The lamps and lampstands are gold because of the honor and purity of the faith in them. An angel has stood guard for each of these, just as the Lord says,44 and Gregory the Theologian had understood the present chapter: he figuratively called them “stars” because of the brightness and clarity of their nature. St. Bede. stars. That is, the rulers of the Church. For the priest, as Malachi says, is “the angel of the Lord of hosts.” Malachi 2:7. “for the lips of a priest should keep knowledge, and people should seek the law from his mouth, for he is the messenger (malakh/angel) of the Lord Almighty.”

Historically Thinking: Conversations about historical knowledge and how we achieve it
Generations of college students have probably imagined that his first name was Venerable, and his family name Bede. But Bede–that's B-E-D-E–was his only name. He was a native of Northumbria, in the north of what we now think of as England. Apparently never going abroad, his life was spent within a few miles of his monastery, and probably just a few miles from where he was born. Yet this seemingly narrow and circumscribed life was full of intense intellectual activity. Bede authored dozens of works: teaching texts to be used for young boys entering the monastery, as he had done; biblical commentaries; arithmetical works; sermons and homilies; and lives of Northumbrian saints. Yet when he is remembered by historians, it is for his Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum, An Ecclesiastical History of the English People. With me to discuss Bede as historian is Rory Naismith, Professor of Early Medieval History and Fellow of Corpus Christi College at the University of Cambridge. This is his third appearance on the podcast; he was last on Historically Thinking in Episode 343 discussing whether we should talk about the Anglo-Saxons. For Further Investigation This is one of our occasional podcasts on important historians. For others, see this one on Polybius, and this on another medieval historian, Princess Anna Komnene The remnants of the monastery of Monkwearmouth-Jarrow The historical site formerly known as "Bede's World": now Jarrow Hall Anglo-Saxon Farm Village and Bede Museum, reopened after a short closure.

Robert Wright, A Companion to Bede: A Reader's Commentary on The Ecclesiastical History of the English People Rory Naismith also suggests: Bede, Ecclesiastical History of the English People/Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum: "This is available in very many translations, including those of Bertram Colgrave and D.
