Comparisons with Peter are common, but lately I've thought more about Judas as an anti-John, the disciple whom Jesus loved vs the one who betrayed Him.

In classic iconographic depictions, he's also without a beard, a young man like John. That fire of youth taking different paths

Always enjoy this line from John during the Gospel readings.

'And he who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true; and he knows that he is telling the truth, so that you may believe.'

I mentioned Malchus and the depth to the scene of Peter cutting off his ear in a thread and several people were interested in hearing more about the story, so post-Pascha, this is the next video I have coming out.

I think it will put a new perspective on things.

Reminder during these holy days, Satan works his hardest to do whatever he can to distract you from what is most important.

Letting X thing you see online bother you when it doesn't directly affect you is his goal.

Trust me, the news & scandal will still be there next week.

‘ Where, O my Son and God, are the good tidings of the Annunciation that Gabriel brought me? He called Thee King and God and Son of the Most High; and now, O my sweet Light, I behold Thee naked, wounded, lifeless.’

‘In my arms I hold Thee as a corpse, O loving Lord, who hast brought the dead to life; grievously is my heart wounded and I long to die with Thee’ , said the All-Pure, ‘for I cannot bear to look upon Thee lifeless and without breath.’

The Forsaken Glory of Judas

Unique and striking icon of Judas leaving the Heavenly Banquet and an empty halo and silhouette, a shadow of what could have been.

We all have the potential for holiness, but it is always easy to leave it all behind.

Seeing her own Lamb led to the slaughter, Mary His Mother followed Him with the other women and in her grief she cried:

'Where dost Thou go, my Child? Why dost Thou run so swiftly? Is there another wedding in Cana, and art Thou hastening there, to turn the water into wine?…
