#Feasts of #Tir_14

✞✞✞On this day we commemorate the Saints Abune Aregawi and Abba Archiledis✞✞✞

✞✞✞In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, one God. Amen!✞✞✞

✞✞✞ Abune Aregawi of Debre Damo✞✞✞
=>Though the Saint finished his spiritual strife in Ethiopia, he was born in the Empire of Rome in Asia Minor. Abune Aregawi is one of the Nine Saints. And the Nine Saints though they came from the Roman Empire, hailed from different parts.

✞And it was the Holy Spirit that made them one through His wisdom. The following list shows the reasons behind their unity.
1. Their upright Miaphysite faith.
2. Their purpose ([seeking] the Kingdom of God) and
3. Monastic life.

✞Including Abba Aregawi’s, all the [Nine] Saints’ lineage is from the palace. However, they chose to make theirs the heavenly honor by forsaking the worldly. And these fathers that studied the Holy Scriptures, at different times went to the Egyptian deserts from Rome.

✞Abba Pantelewon and Abune Aregawi take precedence [from the Nine Saints] in beginning the ascetic life. As the period was when the Miaphysites were persecuted, the 5th century, the Nine Saints chose flight than renouncing their faith.  

✞And in those days, there was no better country to take refuge in than Ethiopia. Hence, the Saints by the leadership of Aregawi came to Ethiopia in the 470s A.D during the reign of Alla Amidas.

✞And the King received them well as they were the guests of God and because he saw their holiness. Later, he allotted them a place to stay in Axum. This place is called “Bete Qetin”. Abba Aregawi and the 8 Saints after coming to our country made learning the local language their first task.

✞And after learning Ge’ez well, they started their [evangelistic] activity there in Axum.  And during that time the kindled missionary activity of Abune Selama, Abreha and Atsbeha including Abune Moses the First was somewhat dwindled. Thus, Abba Aregawi reignited it [with the others]. 

✞They preached to the people with the local tongue so that they become zealous for Christianity. And they preached the Gospel for years by restoring the lapsed and revitalizing the lukewarm. Then, their subsequent task was translating books.

✞They divided up the books that they had brought from their country and translated them to Ge’ez. And by this they did a great favor for our country. And while all these happened, Abune Aregawi and the fathers prayed and ate as a group. And there was perfect love amidst them. And the grace of God did not depart from them.

✞Then, their task became expanding the monastic life. And to do this it was necessary that they separate. Hence, each traveled to the place that the Holy Spirit led him to.
* Abba Pantelewon went to Somat.
* Abba Garima (Isaac, or Yeshaq) went to Medera.
* Abba Liqanos went to Qonasle.
* Abba Yem’ata went to Garalta
*Abba Sehma went Tsedia.
*And the others established monasteries in other areas.
*And Abba Aragawi by the leadership of the Holy Spirit chose Damo (in Tigray).

✞This Saint is one of the renowned fathers in our country. He was born in the middle of the 5th century and his parents were called King Isaac and Queen Edna. And he was born in Rome.

✞He is known with different names. His parents named him ZeMichael (Of Michael) while in the desert he was known as Theodoulos (Gebre Amlak). And in Ethiopia, he is known as Aregawi. Though he was a prince and a child, because he was learned in the scriptures, he ran-away and entered a monastery.

✞There, in the Monastery of Dawnas (Egypt), together with Abba Theodore, he learned the rites of the monks as a disciple of the great St. Pachomius. Years after he became a monk, he returned to Rome and captivated 7 people from the palace to be ascetics after teaching them its ways.✞And when he thought, “Where should I go?” a holy angel took him upon his wings and showed him Ethiopia.
And when he returned, he said to his 8 friends, “Let me show you a country! [A country] which lives by the laws and rules [of scripture] without being taught by the Apostles” and came to Ethiopia with the 8.

✞At that time his mother St. Edna and his disciple Abba Matthias were with him. They came to our country in the 470s and [Emperor] Alla Amidas received them with honor. They stayed at Bete Qetin (Aksum) translating books and preaching the Gospel.

✞And when they separated from one another to evangelize, Abune Aregawi had tired searching for a permanent cell (abode). Finally, he saw Debre Damo (Debre Hallelujah) and loved it. And when he found no way to ascent it, a 60 cubits long serpent took him to the top. 

✞And immediately when he reached the top and praised [God] saying, “Hallelujah to the Father, Hallelujah to the Son and Hallelujah to the Holy Spirit”, a bread descended from heaven and he ate. And for this reason, the place was called ‘Debre (Mount) Hallelujah’. After he converted the place to a monastery, 6 thousand people from different parts came and became monks by him.

✞And because he expanded monasticism and taught about its rites, he is called, “The Father of Ethiopian Monks”. Abune Aregawi in his life has also evangelized and prepared books diligently in addition to his monastic struggles. 

✞St. Yared and Emperor Gebre Mesqel were his companions. And when he established the Monastery of Kidane Meheret at the foot of the mountain for women, his mother St. Edna became its first nun.

✞The Saint completing his pure life on earth at the age of 99, on this day, entered the Realm/World of the Living (he did not pass away) at the eastern part of the monastery. And the Lord has given him a vow that gives mercy to 15 generations. Today is the day of his birth.

✞✞✞ Abba Archiledis✞✞✞
=>There are many saints called by this name in Egypt and in our country. However, the main one is the one whom we commemorate today and about whose life many books speak of. Abba Archiledis lived in the Era of the Righteous and was born in Rome.

✞His parents were Christians and on top of that were wealthy. And his father was a leader of a city. His parents bore the Saint and raised him with order and in good manner. Nevertheless, when Abba Archiledis reached the age of a youth his father died.

✞And after the days of mourning were over, his mother called him and said, “My son! Go and make yours your father’s positon.” And she sent her son on his way after she prepared all that was needed for the road and adding servants and much gold (to be given to the one/the Emperor/ who would appoint him).

✞St. Archiledis after parting from his mother and surrounded by his servants boarded a ship. However, while they were out at Sea a great tempest started and it dismantled the ship. And when all those who were on board died, Abba Archiledis was spared as he hanged on a plank [from the wreckage of the ship].

✞And when he reached the seashore after swimming, he saw a dead body that was carried by the sea waves, and he wept bitterly. Immediately, he thought of the temporal nature of this world. And instead of going seeking appointment, he left for a monastery.
 
✞He then reached the land of Syria and received monkhood from the Great Monastery of St. Romanus (Debre Romanus). He also gave 200 Dinars of gold to the monastery, which he had on his hands. And after he served the monastery for some time he was given a cell.

✞At that time, he made an oath saying, “After now onwards I won’t go out to the world. And I won’t see the appearance of a woman”. And he continued with his strife for 12 years in prayer and fasting. And his fast was 7 days long. Since God multiplied His grace upon him, he healed many who were sick.✞And his acts were heard up to Rome. His mother (Sandalika/Sinclatiki), who thought that he had died after hearing the news of his ship’s wreck, mourned him and lived doing good deeds after converting her house into a hostel where she received guests. And there, one day, she heard her son’s story.
✞Out of joy, she immediately went to Debre Romanus and said, “Let me see my son”. Since Abba Archiledis had made an oath saying, “I won’t see a woman” nothing was able to be done. Then Sandalika said, “Let the wild beasts devour me because I will not go without seeing my son”. Then a message came which said, “Abba Archiledis has permitted, so enter” and she entered.

✞But what she found was the body of her righteous son. That was because he had passed away after pleading to his Creator to take his soul, not to make offence against Him as well as his mother. And his mother while she cried upon her son’s body passed away as well. And because a statement from the Saint’s body that said, “Bury us together” was heard, the monks buried them together.

✞✞✞ May the God of Saints not deprive us of the love He gave to them. And may He multiply their blessings upon us.
