Материал из Православной Энциклопедии под редакцией Патриарха Московского и всея Руси Кирилла МААДИКАРИБ ЯФУР [Мадикариб Юфир/Яафур (?); сабейский  ; сир.  ,  ] (1-я четв. VI в.), 1-й из правителей южноарав. гос-ва Химьяр , о котором достоверно известно, что он исповедовал христианство. Наиболее поздняя надпись его предшественника на химьяритском престоле Марсадъилана Януфа датирована мартом 509 г., однако, судя по косвенным данным, почерпнутым в основном из памятников сирийской агиографии, начало правления М. Я. относится к лету 518 - маю 519 г., когда аксумский царь Калеб (см. Елезвой ) отправил из Адулиса , главного порта своего государства, в Юж. Аравию войска под командованием Хайана, чтобы возвести М. Я. на престол. Когда М. Я. оказался в затруднительном финансовом положении, христиане Награна оказали ему денежную помощь как своему единоверцу: так, одна богатая награнка ссудила ему 12 тыс. денариев, а затем простила этот долг. М. Я. нуждался в средствах в т. ч. и для организации походов во Внутреннюю Аравию. Согласно наскальной надписи Ry 510, оставленной им в Вади-Масиль в Неджде, в июне 521 г. он прибыл туда во главе крупного войска, в состав которого входили как южно- ( киндиты и мазхиджиты), так и североарав. племена (саалабиты и мудариты), и сумел восстановить контроль Химьяра над этой областью, попавшей в сферу влияния лахмидского царя аль- Мунзира III . Вероятно, к этому же походу относится обнаруженная в районе Вади-Таслис, у сев. рубежей Йемена , надпись Ja 2484 (наиболее обоснованная датировка - авг. 521). Военные действия в Аравии против зависевшего от Сасанидов царства Лахмидов не отвечали интересам значительной части химьяритской элиты, исповедовавшей иудаизм или сочувственно относившейся к этой религии, а во внешней политике настроенной антивизантийски и проирански. Принято считать, что кончина М. Я. в июне-июле 522 г. открыла путь к верховной власти в Химьяре иудею-узурпатору Йосефу Асару Ясару . Ист.: позднесабейские надписи: Ryckmans G.

5. The Russian Metropolia It was the Revolution of 1917 and the Communist control of the Church following it that forced the Russian Diocese in America to proclaim a temporary independence from the Moscow Patriarchate at the Detroit Sobor of 1924. In doing so, the Russian Church here was applying the historic decisions of the Great Russian Sobor held in Moscow in 1917-18, whose basic tendency was to return from the centralised and bureaucratic Church administration, established by Peter the Great, to the original Orthodox “sobornost” — the active participation of the whole Church — bishops, clergy and laity — in the totality of the Church’s life. Literally following the decisions of the Moscow Sobor, the American Russian Diocese elected its Primate, Metropolitan Platon (+1934), one of the senior Bishops of the Church of Russia who, having served in America before World War I, knew the needs of the Church here and could assure the continuity of her life. The Church, weakened by the Revolution, gathered around Metropolitan Platon and began its new growth. Under his successors, Metropolitans Theophilus (+1950) and Leonty (elected in 1950), new dioceses were created so that today the former Diocese had developed into a great Metropolitan District with nine dioceses. It has theological schools, a system of religious education, etc. It is governed, according to the canonical tradition of the Orthodox Church, by a Synod (Council) of Bishops, led by the Primate, and by a regular triennial Sobor with the participation of clergy and laity. It maintains close relations with all other Orthodox Churches in America and abroad. Unfortunately, the genuine canonicity of the Metropolia, its organic continuity with the whole growth of Orthodoxy in America, its faithfulness to the very spirit of the Moscow decisions of 1917-18, are not understood and accepted by all. Two other Russian ecclesiastical groups maintain a separate existence, breaking the much needed unity of the Church. One takes its stand on a purely formal “canonicity.” This is the Exarchate of the Moscow Patriarchate, organized in 1933 after the arrival of Archbishop Benjamin from Europe. Its claims are unacceptable to the Metropolia which wants to be in communion with the Orthodox people of Russia, but which cannot depend on a Church administration totally controlled by the Communist regime. The other is the Russian Church in Exile grouping mainly the political emigrants and deeply conditioned in its life by their political ideologies.

18 Juin 1924 Le patriarche Tikhon répondant à la lettre du patriarche Grégoire VII, réfute point par point ces conseils malvenus : « Nous n’avons pas peu été étonné et troublé de ce que... le chef de l’Église constantinopolitaine, sans nous préalablement consulté, comme représentant légal et chef de toute l’Église orthodoxe russe, intervienne dans la vie interne et dans les affaires de l’Église russe autocéphale. Les saints Conciles (cf 2 e et 3 e canons du II Concile œcuménique, etc) n’ont jamais reconnu autre chose que la primauté d’honneur de l’évêque de Constantinople, ne lui accordant ni primauté d’autorité, ni aucune primauté en général... C’est pourquoi, toute commission, quelle qu’elle soit, envoyée sans que j’en ai eu connaissance, comme unique premier hiérarque légitime et orthodoxe de l’Église orthodoxe russe, et sans mon accord, est illégale, ne sera pas reçue par le peuple orthodoxe russe ; elle n’apportera pas l’apaisement, mais un trouble encore plus grand et un schisme plus profond dans l’Église orthodoxe russe déjà fortement éprouvée... Le peuple n’est pas avec les schismatiques, il est avec son patriarche légitime et orthodoxe. Il est permis de s’interroger sur les mesures proposées par Votre Sainteté pour apaiser l’Église, à savoir ma destitution de la direction de l’Église et la suppression, même temporaire, du patriarcat en Russie. Ceci n’apaisera pas la Sainte Église, mais provoquera de nouveaux troubles, apportant de nouvelles afflictions à nos fidèles archipasteurs et pasteurs déjà si éprouvés. » Après cette lettre, le patriarche Grégoire VII rompt de fait toute relation avec Sa Sainteté le patriarche Tikhon, et ne correspond plus qu’avec le Synode des rénovateurs. Au nom du prolétariat constantinopolitain 21 Juillet 1924 L’archimandrite Basile (Dimopoulo), représentant du patriarche de Constantinople en URSS, s’adresse au nom du patriarche Grégoire VII et « de tout le prolétariat constantinopolitain » au chef du Secrétariat aux affaires des cultes du Présidium du Comité exécutif central de l’URSS, P. Smidovitch : « Ayant vaincu ses ennemis, surmonté tous les obstacles, ayant pris des forces, la Russie soviétique peut maintenant répondre aux appels du prolétariat du Proche-Orient, bien disposé envers elle, le disposant ainsi encore mieux. Il vous appartient, camarade Smidovitch, de rendre le nom de la Russie soviétique encore plus populaire en Orient qu’il ne l’était naguère, et je vous en prie instamment : rendez au Patriarcat de Constantinople ce grand service, en tant que gouvernement puissant et fort d’une grande puissance, d’autant plus que le patriarche œcuménique, reconnu en Orient comme le chef de tous les orthodoxes, a clairement démontré par ses actes sa bienveillance envers le pouvoir soviétique qu’il a reconnu. » L’éminence grise de Constantinople

In addition, according to the director of the office, the return of all the Romanovs may even harm Russia. — Around the world, there are thousands or even tens of thousands of descendants who are not members of the Imperial house. This is a wide circle, and it is unclear whether Russia will benefit from them. There are those who long ago broke away from the Imperial house, they don't speak Russian, and profess another religion. The status of the House of Romanov is based on the dynastic law. Family law, established by Emperor Paul in 1797, always indicates a person with rights and duties of the head of the house, those who are members, who has what titles, etc. Note that now there are two main branches of the Romanov family — Kirillovichs and Nikolaevichs. The first call themselves " The Imperial house in exile " , headed by Maria Vladimirovna, the second is the association of descendants of the house of Romanov, headed by Prince Nicholas Romanovich. According to the professor of the School of Historical Sciences of the Higher School of Economics, Oleg Budnitskiy, the legitimate heirs to the throne are the Kirillovichs. — After the murder of the Royal family, the legitimate heir, according to the law of succession, became Duke Kirill Vladimirovich, who at the time lived in Germany. He proclaimed himself " Emperor in exile " in 1924. But he was not popular at the house of the Romanovs, although genealogically he was the heir. From him stemmed the branch of the Kirillovichs, who are the heirs to the Russian throne, - says the historian. — After the revolution, the Romanovs ended up in different countries — Germany, France, England, Denmark, where today their descendants continue to live. In 1990's the idea about their return was popular. They often come and participate in events, they are welcomed at the high level. The head of the Institute of Political Studies, Sergei Markov said that the return of the Romanovs in no way will affect the mood of citizens. — In most countries the population has no respect for Imperial houses, with the exception of the UK and the Netherlands, - he says. — In Russia, the Romanovs are viewed as either innocent victims because of the execution by the Bolsheviks, or traitors, who in the critical years of the Tsarist monarchy behaved irresponsibly. Many believe that the abdication of Nicholas II led to the civil war.

5. From the book of Hieromartyr Vladimir, Metropolitan of Kiev and Galich, Pastoral conversations with children ( quoted from Warriors of Christ. Lives and works of 20 th century ascetics. Calendar. p.41). 6. A period of “red terror” began in the country. This concept is discussed to this day. The “red terror” is understood not only to be mass repressions carried out by the Bolsheviks in Russia’s civil war (the “red terror” of the 1920’s and the “great terror” 30’s must be differentiated), but also government politics, i.e. political terror. The main feature of this terror is violence against the civilian population. 7. This number is brought forth by U.V. Kudrina and well-known historian of the Russian Civil War S.M. Melgunov (See: Mother and Son. Empress Maria Fyodorovna and Tsar Nicholas II . U.V. Kudrina. p. 184; see also: There was none more vile and mean … U.V. Kudrina//Chronos. Russian national philosophy in the writings of its founders: http://www.hrono.ru/statii/2006/kudr_yu.html). 8.

Head of the Kharkov KGB S. Saenko would smash his victim’s head with heavy weights, while the Cheka basements contained remains of many human bodies with skinned arms, limbs chopped off, crucified on the floor with star and strip-shaped gashes on their foreheads and shoulders. In Odessa, Ukraine, “hostages” were thrown alive into huge boilers and roasted in ship ovens, in Sevastopol – drowned, in the Urals and Siberia – crucified on crosses, in Omsk – stomach’s of pregnant women were slashed open, in Poltava – impaled … With the coming of the White Army and volunteer forces, the city inhabitants would rush to the known addresses of Cheka jails, hoping to find relatives, yet hundreds of bodies hastily buried in yards or barns, and cellars flooded with blood were discovered. In many cases, victim identification was impossible. The “lucky ones” were just shot…

40 Pat King, in Logos Journal, Sept.-Oct., 1971, p. 50. This “international charismatic journal” should not be confused with Fr.E. Stephanou’s Logos. 41 Most books will be cited in this article only by author and page number; full bibliographical information is supplied at the end of the article. 42 Bishop Theophan the Recluse, What Is the Spiritual Life, Jordanville, Ν.Υ., 1962, ππ 247–8 (in Russian). Fr. Eusebius Stephanou ( Logos, Jan., 1972, p.13) attempts to justify the present-day ‘reception of the Holy Spirit’ outside the Church by citing the account of the household of Cornelius the Centurion (Acts 10), which received the Holy Spirit before baptism. But the difference in the two cases is crucial: the reception of the Holy Spirit by Cornelius and his household was the sign that they should be joined to the Church by Baptism, whereas contemporary Pentecostals by their experience are only confirmed in their delusion that there is no one saving Church of Christ. 45 See Kurt Koch, Occult Bondage and Deliverance, Kregel Publications, Grand Rapids, Mich., 1970, pp. 168–170. 46 Kurt Koch, Between Christ and Satan, Kregel Publications, 1962, p. 124. This book and Dr. Koch’s Occult Bondage offer a remarkable confirmation, based on 20th-century experience, of virtually every manifestation of mediumism, magic, sorcery, etc., that is found in the Holy Scriptures and the Orthodox Lives of Saints – the source of all of which, of course, is the devil. On only a few points will the Orthodox reader have to correct his interpretations. 47 Simon A.
