The Syriac monks have always inspired me. Thanks.

[@syriac4life290]

You go visit Iraq and see the Syriac tradition in display, they display a true unity, intercommunion between Catholic and Orthodox churches, no distinction.

[@soundcheck2k7]

Yes, but Syriac Orthodoxy is true doctrine. Catholic is post-1054 AD and includes all kinds of catchechisms and doctrines that are heretical.

[@MargamOnline]

Mar Issac the Syrian.❤️📿

[@summersloth2899]

Been following Dr Brock for a long time as a syro-malabar catholic. Thank you for the talk on St Issac🙏

[@loveandmercy9664]

In my opinion one of most interesting developments of the modern church is the rediscovery of the Jewish and Syriac roots of the church. There's these intersting resurgences in Syriac culture in Israel, Iraqi Kurdistan and Detroit Michgian.

[@Deto4508]

I wasn’t expecting to read Detroit, Michigan at the end of this comment, but that’s awesome.

[@loveandmercy9664]

@@Deto4508 Detroit has the only Chaldean museum in the world.

[@Deto4508]

@@loveandmercy9664 Oh wow, I didn’t know that, that’s cool

[@bellingdog]

The Syriac tradition has always been strong in the East, especially the Orthodox Churches and Church of the East. I would say it is still seen by their practices, where beauty is seen as a fruit of truth, thus wherever true beauty is, so there is truth, hence why those aforementioned churches use more poetic language than Catholicism and Protestantism.

[@tomasidh]

Dr. Brock is a blessing. Does he practice the faith?

[@Deto4508]

2:17 yeah

[@riverjao]

Cool! I just came across Dr. Brock about a week ago and I really liked some of what he said but I was hoping to find a better format to get certain, “better” (that’s subjective, I know) info from him, and here it is!

[@ReasonandTheology]

Thanks for watching!

[@parker7923]

There's monks and then there's the Syriac monks.. great stream

[@josepholeary3286]

Apocatastasis has a lot of great theologians on its side: Origen, Gregory of Nyssa, Ephrem, Isaac. Gregory, never condemned, explicitly teaches in his Great Catechetical Oration that Satan will be saved in the end, overcome by the power of Christ's love.

[@shamshiadadi4382]

He was an Assyrian. Why do you still call him “Syrian?” It doesn’t get more Assyrian than Nineveh.

[@ashcash7399]

With all respect he might of made accidentally mistakes about the assyrian church of the east. I am from the church and the timing he said was completely wrong
