John Anthony McGuckin St. Isaac the Syrian (7th c.) JOHN A. MCGUCKIN Also known as St. Isaac of Niniveh, one of the great ascetical and mystical writers of the Eastern Church. Isaac was a monk of the Chaldaean Church (or Assyrian Church of the East) from Beit Quatraye, possibly Qatar on the Persian Gulf. He was appointed bishop of Niniveh sometime before 680, but after a few months in the position resigned his charge and returned to the solitary life of an ascetic. In later life he became blind from his scholarly labors. His spiritual authority and the beauty of his writings on prayer and mystical experience made his works cherished by both the rival Monophysite and Nestorian factions of the Persian Church of his time. In the 9th century his texts on ascetical prayer were translated from the Syriac into Greek and Arabic versions, and came to Byzan­tium shortly after, where they had a large impact on the developing hesychastic spir­itual theology. Isaac lays great stress on the sensibility of the grace of God in the heart, and is one of the most mature and gentle authors on the spiritual life from Christian antiquity. His writings were treasured on Mount Athos and highly regarded by St. Paisy Velichovsky in the time of the Philokalic revival (18th century) of Greek and Slavonic monastic spirituality. In recent years lost works have been rediscovered, and by virtue of new English translations he is once again becoming known as one of the great masters of early eastern Christian spirituality.

 See: Иже во святых отца нашего аввы Исаака Сириянина Слова подвижнические [Перевод с греческого С.Соболевского]. Sergiev Posad, 1911.  It corresponds to Discours 16 from the collection: St. Isaac the Syrian. О Божественных тайнах и о духовной жизни. Moscow, 1998, pp.125—126.  Mar Isaacus Ninevita. De perfectione religiosa, quam edidit Paulus Bedjan. Leipzig, 1909. P. 585—600.  The manuscript Bodleian syr. e. 7 comes from the monastery of Mar Abdisho and belonged to Rabban Isho from the village of Bet. The manuscript is written using the characters of Eastern Syriac (Esrangl). It has been dated at the turn of the eleventh century and was acquired by the Bodleian Library in Oxford in 1898 by the Anglican priest Yaroo M. Neesan, a native of the Urmia region. The manuscript, written in Esrangl and consisting of 190 pages measuring 19.5 x 14.5 cm., has survived in full, with the exception of the first and the last pages (the text at the very beginning and very end of the manuscript has been damaged). On the last page there is a notation beginning with the words: ‘There is finished, with the help of the Lord and with the succour of the grace of Jesus Christ, the second volume (palguta d-tarten) of Mar Isaac the Syrian, bishop of Nineveh. May his prayers guard the copyist and reader. Amen. Copied by the unworthy man, a sinner deprived of righteousness, yet abiding in evil, by the name of Marcos…’.  See: Isaac of Nineveh (Isaac the Syrian). «The Second Part», chapters IV—XLI.

Историческое учение об Отцах Церкви. Vol. 3. Moscow, 1859 [reprinted Moscow, 1996], p. 175.  Homily 61 of the Greek translation corresponds to Homily 32 of the Russian translation. if we bear in mind that the Homilies of St. Isaac were grouped into volumes and numbered not by him but by one of the early copyists (which is borne out by the headings of the Homilies where Isaac is mentioned in the third person), then the presence of two identical discourses in various volumes should not cause surprise.

St. Thecla Convent in Ma " loula still under siege/Православие.Ru St. Thecla Convent in Ma " loula still under siege Ma " loula, October 10, 2013 Humanitarian aid has been twice given to the nuns and children who took shelter from militants in the Syrian Orthodox Convent of St. Thecla and remained without food and water, a representative of the Orthodox Church of Antioch, Bishop Isaac of Aramaya (Barakat), stated on Thursday, according to a report by RIA Novosti. Late in September, the France Presse agency reported that around 40 nuns and orphaned children were still shut in the convent of St. Thecla in the town of Ma " loula, which was under siege by the militants. According to the information of Syrian military sources, anyone who approaches the convent are fired upon by snipers. It also was reported that the generator in the convent was not in good working order and the water supply was stopped. " They have no electricity, no water and no food... We managed to send aid to the convent twice, " said Bishop Isaac to the journalists. According to him, it became possible to give necessary food to the convent owing to the support of Patriarch John X and the Syrian army. The Bishop has also added that last Sunday, the militants attacked the Holy Cross Church in Damascus where Barakat serves as the rector as well as the Greek-Catholic Church of the Mother of God. " Eight people were killed and 20 were wounded, " added the representative of the Patriarchate of Antioch. Aid to residents of Ma " loula is being now sent from Moscow as well. On September 29, the Imperial Orthodox Palestine Society delivered humanitarian aid weighing about 1.5 tons to Damascus. Attempt are being made to bring part of this aid to Ma " loula—food and medicaments, as well as gifts for the children gathered by the wards of the orphanage at the Vyksa Iveron Convent in the Nizhny Novgorod region, reports ITAR-TASS.

International conference " Syria: path to peace " in Geneva Geneva, June 13, 2013 On June 7, 2013, the second conference " Syria: the path to peace " took place in Geneva, as part of the 23rd session of the United Nations Human Rights Council, reports Sedmitza.ru . The representative of Patriarch of Antioch and all the East John X, Bishop Isaac of Apameia, the UN high commissioner on human rights Navanethem Pillay, the representative of the Russian Orthodox Church at the World Council of Churches and international organizations in Geneva, Archpriest Michael Gundiaev, and other public and religious figures and diplomats took part in the meeting. One of the conference " s organizers was the Imperial Orthodox Palestine Society that was represented in the forum by the IOPS deputy chairman E.A. Agapova. The President of the Historical Perspective Foundation and a member of the IOPS council N.A. Narochnitskaya took part in the event. The message of the grand Mufti of Syria Ahmad Badreddin Hassoun, who for safety reasons could not be present at the event, was read aloud at the conference. The message relayed information about cruel violence perpetrated by militants against the peaceful population, about the destruction of churches and mosques by them. The Mufti called upon the UN Human Rights Council to be unbiased and impartial towards events happening in Syria. Bishop Isaac of Apameia devoted his speech to the situation of Christians in Syria. He expressed the deep concern about their exodus from their native land, named cases of kidnapping of clergy, acts of vandalism, and destruction of Christian Shrines. He especially noted the positive role of Russia in overcoming of the crisis. The hierarch stressed that Christians feel that they are an integral part of the Syrian society. In his speech, Archpriest Michael Gundiaev stated that Syria is gradually losing its unique model of peaceful coexistence between Christians and Moslems based on mutual respect. He also expressed a special concern about the destiny of the two missing hierarchs: Metropolitan Paul of Aleppo and Metropolitan Mar Gregory Johanna Ibrahim, who were kidnapped by militants near Aleppo on April 22, 2013. The following decision was made at the conference: to send an appeal to the UN Human Rights Council that would express deep concern over the kidnapping of clergy, and contain a call to the UN to make every effort to ensure the prompt and successful release of the Syrian Metropolitans from captivity. All the delegates agreed that a peaceful settlement must be carried out on the basis of the Geneva communique through the Syrian national dialogue, which will result in the resolution of the problem by Syrians themselves, and create an atmosphere wherein all residents of Syria can feel safe, regardless of their ethnic and religious background or political views. 17 июня 2013 г. ...

In the early 13th century the church suffered severe losses under Mongol domination. By the 16th century the church was centered in the mountains of Kurdistan, and weakened by internal divisions as part seceded to the jurisdiction of Rome, and accepted Chalcedonian Christology (Chaldean East­ern Catholics). The 20th century proved disastrous for the Assyrian Christians. Partly through British influence, the Chris­tians of Kurdistan supported the Allied cause under Russian protection in World War I and suffered reprisals for it in the aftermath from both sides: the Turkish state and the Kurds. After the murder of the catholicos, many Assyrian Christians fled to Iraq, claiming the protection of the British Administration there. When this political mandate was terminated (1933) the agitation that resulted led to the deportation of the catholicos, who finally settled in North America, where the largest diaspora grew up. The indigenous Assyrians of the Middle East (Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Iran) have been increasingly eroded by the ascent of Arab nationalism and fundamentalist Islam throughout the latter part of the 20th century. In 1968 a major internal division occurred, leaving two catholicoi, one in the USA and one in Baghdad.
