This was because he was a hermit whose stamina was upright, beard came down like woven silk, hair was as dark as a raven, and had an appearance that was complete and had an impression that triggered fear. ✞He immediately preached to the people to repent and baptized many unto repentance. And after six months in this ministry, our Lord came to him. And John was alarmed when the Creator, Who holds heaven and earth with everything in them in His hands, came saying, “Baptize Me.” St. John did not know where to go. ✞He said, “No my Lord! You baptize me.” However, the Lord responded with, “I have permitted it [for you St. John to baptize Me].” Thence, he baptized Him. And for this, he will always be called, “Metmeqe Melekot” (the Baptist). Finally, St. John rebuked Herod (Antipas). And the king led by a grudge imprisoned him for 7 days.  ✞And when Herod celebrated his birthday, the daughter of Herodias trapped him with music and persuaded him to make a vow. And he gave her the head of the great prophet in a charger, after decapitating him. The scholars say, “it was better for Herod if he had swallowed up [have not honored] his vow.” Thereafter, while the decapitated head of St. John flew away, his disciples buried his body (Matthew 3:.1/ Mark 6:14/ Luke 3:1/ John 1.:6). ✞The head of John the Baptist flew with wings of grace after the cursed Herod beheaded the Saint and it bowed down before the Lord at Mt. Olive, where He was. The Holy Apostles astounded by what they saw, gave salutations to the Saint’s head. ✞After this, our Lord Jesus Christ, gave authority to St. John’s head to preach and sent it forth. Hence, it spent 15 years preaching all over the world and on this day it rested in Arabia. +++ Names of St. John the Baptist +++ 1. Prophet 2. Apostle 3. Martyr 4. Righteous 5. Priest 6.

ዝክረ ቅዱሳን ማኅበረ ቅዱስ ዳዊት - ዘብሔረ ጎንደር (ዲ/ዮርዳኖስ አበበ): Memhir Esuendale: #Feasts of #Miyazia_15 ✞✞✞On this day we commemorate the departure of the Great Prophet and Martyr Saint John the Baptist✞✞✞ ✞✞✞In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, one God. Amen!✞✞✞ ✞✞✞Saint John the Baptist✞✞✞ =>It is difficult to say that in the Gospel there is someone whose honor was mentioned as much as the family of Zacharias, except our Lady. St. Luke started his Gospel with this family and the Holy Spirit inspired him to write the following. “And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.”(Luke 1.6) ✞Let’s leave ‘before mankind’, but how transcendent is it to live blameless before God? And to this, awe is appropriate! ✞These holy husband and wife, because they were barren, most of their days/ages were spent without bearing a child. And according to the Tradition of the Church, the age of Elisabeth was 90 and Zacharias had reached 100. ✞However, the Lord who saw their patience, sent the angel of annunciation, St. Gabriel, to give them [annunciate the birth of] a great prophet, who was greater than men and about whom a prophecy was told (Isaiah 40.3/ Malachi 3.1). ✞St. Zacharias, because he was a human and argued [with the announcing angel] from joy, was made dumb. Nonetheless, Saint Elisabeth conceived the great man on Meskerem 26 (October 6) and concealed herself for 6 months. And on the sixth month, when the Lord of all creation was conceived (assumed flesh [human nature]), the Queen of Heaven, our Lady the Virgin Mary, came to Elisabeth through the hill country. The two Saints were daughters of sisters. ✞And when the Theotokos (Mother of God) reached and saluted them, the Holy Spirit descended upon the mother and child; hence Elisabeth praised and John while in the womb leaped (prostrated) with joy. Then, he was born on Sene 30 (July 7) and Zacharias, his father, was able to speak as he named him “John.”  ✞When St. John was 2 years and 6 months old, because the wise men came, Herod the ‘Great’ slaughtered the children that were found in Israel. Later, the Jews told Herod about the holy child [St. John]. They said to him, “Because there is a child who had shut his father’s mouth and opened it when he was born [miraculously]. Kill him as well.” ✞And when St. Elisabeth, his mother, took him and fled, they (the soldiers) killed the priest Zacharias in the middle of the Temple. The old woman, Elisabeth, raised the child and stayed in the Desert of Zifata for 3 (5) years. And when St. John was 5(7) years old, his mother passed away in the desert. Hence, Zacharias and Simeon descended from heaven and buried her. ✞And when the child John cried, the Virgin Mary heard him from far away as she was also in exile. She went with the Lord by a cloud and comforted him. Then, she asked the Lord saying, “Shall we take him?” However, our Lord answered, “Until I call him for ministry, let him stay here.” After that she blessed, consoled St. John and they departed. ✞After this, St. John, in that desert, lived in asceticism wearing a raiment of camel's hair and a leathern girdle about his loins. And for 25 (23) years, while living in purity, he did not see anyone except beasts of the field and heavenly hosts. He did not know the tang of this rebellious world. ✞Then, when he became 30, God spoke to him from heaven. And because the prophets had prophesized about it, He said to him, “Go! Pave the way for My Son” (Isaiah 40:3/Malachi 3:1). Also Zacharias, his father, had said, “And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways” about his forerunning (Luke 1:76). ✞At this time, St. John, filled with the Power of the Holy Spirit, came hurriedly to Judea from the desert. And all those that saw him feared and respected him.
