She’s one of my favourite saints, I’m so inspired by her. Saint Mary of Egypt pray for us!

[@BibleIllustrated]

Amen!

[@melissabarham4837]

Amen! ☦️❤️

[@lucaskappes7658]

​@BibleIllustrated thank you for making this, the patron of the orthodox church I am beginning to attend is saint mary of egypt

[@robertwaguespack9414]

May the Saints pray for me that I live the holiness that God calls me to.

[@patrickrooney4601]

Holy crap, I never ever will get that level of hardcore fasting, can barely get up without iced tea.

[@johnnyd2383]

One does not need to start hardcore. It requires training and over time body adapts to the rhythm of fasting-nonfasting periods. Start with light fast and increase as you feel it possible. Iced tea you can always drink for as long as it does not contain any animal products. ;o)

[@Strider1Wilco]

There will come a time where you'll experience something unique to you. Be not afraid.

[@sotirisgeorgakopoulos6220]

One of my Theology professors loves the story of St. Mary of Egypt, he includes it in every class he teaches when covering asceticism

Mexican stand-off was not a description I thought would be used for two people trying to get each others blessings

[@JaythePandaren]

Saint Mary of Egypt is one of my favorite saints. For years, I asked her to pray for me endlessly so that I may stop defiling myself and the temple which is my body. I Failed many times, But I knew she was praying for me before God for my soul and I knew if not for her, I wouldn't realize how truly evil Pornography of all kinds and other sexual sinful filth really is. St Mary of Egypt, please continue to pray for me before the throne of God for my salvation.

[@dokidelta1175]

Saint Mary of Egypt is one of my favorite saints. Her story is profoundly inspiring to me. Every night I ask for her intercession.

APRIL FOOLS! You thought that the video today was a weird zany un-Bible Illustrated video, but it was a part of a wider arc joke of getting TWO videos today! Hello!

[@akimoetam1282]

Bible Illustrated you got us good

[@RezaChity-G]

@Alexandre Phaneuf élève Yes, the joke was that since today is April Fool's day, Bojan had to do something funny/prank us. And since we usually only expect one video to be uploaded a day, Bojan was sneaky and made one "joke" video, and another serious video about the Holy Saints Mary of Egypt and Zosimas of Palestine. So, Bojan had us fooled thinking that his April Fool's video was the video of music he gave us, yet we actually did get this video too.

[@BibleIllustrated]

@Alexandre Phaneuf élève Yes.

[@RezaChity-G]

@Alexandre Phaneuf élève Yes it is haha.

[@robertwaguespack9414]

It might interest you to know that in some hispanic circles April 1 is a day to commemorate the Holy Innocents who were killed by Herod.

[@susansuewwilliams]

St Mary of Egypt is a wonderful role model to follow, too bad none of us sinners can achieve her level of reverence, though we can pray to come closer to Christ. I am so glad several years ago I found your channel and later became a Patreon supporter. May the Lord keep your family and you safe during this pandemic that we may all celebrate Pascha as one family in Christ. Love in Christ In the Michigan US we are no longer having any Great Lent Services, even the OCA has stop serving. But thank the Lord for live streaming. Why no actual services to attend? We are under the Lord's protection; we take His Body and Blood. Should we die from the pandemic we go Home to be with Christ. Blessed fifth week of Great Lent.

[@eduardovalentin9416]

I mean, we definitely could achieve such ascetic heights. Her example, and of all the saints, is to show us what we too can do with the power of Christ.

[@Ymirson999]

Thank you for this. Your posts are often a bit breezy and light-hearted as well as informative, but (just speaking for myself) this one was different. It had an irresistible poignancy that filled me with a hope and just touched a very raw nerve with me. So again, thank you for this. I'm going to do read what I can about this saint.

[@נדב_חומסקי]

I know this story, it took place in Ein Prat or Wadi Qelt. It is important to say that those monks followed Chariton the Confessor who started the Asceticism in the Judæan desert before he went to Teqoa.

[@gillianlindeen5823]

What an awesome story! Praise be to God!

Happy feast day, brothers and sisters! St Mary, pray for us! 🦁

[@mladenilievski8584]

The amazing story is just amazing. Mary of Egypt pray to God to forgive us our sins. I knew a little about this story,but now I know the whole story. May Orthodoxy Christianity live! Amen.

[@matfejpatrusin4550]

5:21 laughing out loud literally XD

[@palamabron2481]

Interesting story but I wonder why this is so different from the version of St. Mary's life I heard before. I remember her having a monk for an uncle who went to rescue her from the brothel, disguised as a potential client. It's his words to her there that make me love that version of the story: "It is no uncommon thing to fall into the mire, but it is an evil thing to lie there fallen."

[@ryangianan1439]

Thats another saint

Thank you for doing an episode on St. Mary of Egypt. It's wonderful. Can you go over the drawings for the range 7:40-8:24 when Fr. Zosima finds her with her hands crossed on her chest and draw her like that. Blessed day.

Probably just a mistake.

[@lc2036]

"Some Zosimas guy?!" - Lord, have mercy! 😣

[@BibleIllustrated]

I mean, he isn't exactly at the center of the story :D

[@lc2036]

Right, but he's not exactly the bloke next door you can chill with. The Church recognises him as a Saint. He deserves honour. Some guy? - not appropriate.

[@htzltsc6665]

I ask this in another video but i just wanna ask it again because it wasn't asnwered. Can orthodox Christians venerate icon even though it is not painted like it is made using oil pastels? Btw i love your videos it always encourage me to become orthodox. Thx

Can you also make a video about st. John maximovitch

Interesting that the men on board the ship we're not equally at fault for partaking of the (at the time) harlot.

[@BibleIllustrated]

How do you mean?

[@irongeneral7861]

@@BibleIllustrated Mary's sin is more emphasized here than the other pilgrims aboard the "love boat". It's nothing really, just a difference in how men and women are judged for sexual deviance.

[@bonniejohnstone]

They went to a bar, not to the Church to see the Holy Cross. Wimped out! Their judgement will come and they bring it on themselves.

[@nightlysobbing]

Those men didn't become saints so their story isn't relevant

As a Protestant, I don't think I believe this, nor do I think I am allowed to. Nevertheless, I absolutely LOVE this story.

[@derekward3512]

Why not?

[@someguy9571]

As a former Protestant...why do you think you're not allowed to believe it?

[@Branwolfe1]

As a former protestant, we both believed in miracles likely, no? Why denounce the miracles of old? If Christ really is who he says he is, someone as corrupt as Saint Mary was can be saved. I hope I too can be saved in her fashion, as I am of her similar cloth. May God's grace and love rest on you brother, please pray for me

[@SAINTRAPHAELMARY]

As a protestant you are seriously deluded about salvation. You have very little to protest about now days because the catholics have joined you. Ecumenism, what a joke...
