    Mary as spirit... Does this suggest the icon Mary as a sort of breath of fresh air, an aspiration in anima (not animus...)

    ST George was indeed Orthodox and Greek himself, same as Zoe Sophia Paleologina, and it was highly usual, as icons are still present in the monuments of "Byzantium" which is now in modern day Turkey and beyond this location, all the way in the east including Jerusalem and Palestine, evidence-based in churches built by St Helena herself also Greek and Orthodox. It still is very common to this very day! She, Zoe Sophia Paleologina, was Greek Orthodox, like St George, no matter what the Pope wanted her to be or St George to be and no matter where they, either of them, were geographically located, or their circumstances, THANK CHRIST. The models of Russian Orthodoxy were in the Eastern Roman Empire, as evidenced in the definitive pictures you use of St Peters Basilica in western Rome at the time, which are different, hence the word Basilica which defines that architecture meaning tiled two sided roof and not a dome shape. Although Basilica style churches are also found in Greece and /or the east. Although the word Tsar is derived from the word Ceasar being bit common in Western and Eastern Rome.

    Thank you Museum of Russian Icons for having Dr. Todor Mitrovic interviewed. The ideas he’s articulating are extremely important for the authentic and living development of the icon painting tradition today. Thank you Todor for all of your research, taking risks, and daring to experiment towards expanding stylistic perimeters!

    I watched this because I was interested in finding out about Russian pysanky as I did not think that this is part of Russian culture only to find that information about Ukrainian pysanky has been filmed here under the heading of Russian icons! I know that some people will immediately accuse me with bringing politics into art and culture but that is the reality of the actual propagandistic hybrid war as well as an actual war that is being inflicted against Ukraine by Russia. Putin claims that Ukrainians and Russians are one people. Ukrainians say they are not. Russia has been appropriating Ukrainian cultural treasures and traditions foe centuries. This is why I am incensed about the Ukrainian artist here discussing Ukrainian traditions and styles of pysanky. This is NOT the platform for this!. If Russians do not have a strong tradition of pysanky, then lets not have this video under the auspices of Russian Icons. What about the Russian pysanka then?!!!

    1 Maccabees 3:48 And laid open the book of the law, wherein the heathen had sought to paint the likeness of their images. 2 Thessalonians 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

    Rabbi Yerachmiel Shapiro: "the Book of Maccabees is not in the Jewish Bible. Amazingly, it is found in the Christian version of the Old Testament. The Tanach, or Jewish Bible, is an abbreviation of Torah, Nevi’im, and Ketuvim. Torah is the Five Books of Moses, which you would find in the Torah scroll. Nevi’im are the Prophets, including Samuel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and our favorite, Elijah, who has been drinking our seder wine as long as anyone can remember. Ketuvim are the scriptures, which include the megillot like Esther and Ruth, wisdom books like Proverbs and Ecclesiastes, and many of our prayers in the book called Psalms. All these books were solidified, sanctified and canonized into our Tanach sometime around 400 B.C.E., give or take 100 years, by a group of the first “proto-rabbis” who were called the Anshe Knesset Hagadolah, the Men of the Great Assembly. Consider them the generation that biblical times ended with and post-biblical times began; the generation when prophets ended and rabbis began. You have them to thank for Purim, the Silent Amidah, as well as most of our ancient prayers. If they sealed up the Jewish Bible by 200 B.C.E. or so, there’s no wonder why the Book of Maccabees didn’t make the cut. The story of Chanukah started in 167 B.C.E. when Antiochus put statues of Zeus in the Temple, sacrificed pigs and forbade Bris Milah. The poor Book of Maccabees missed the cut by less than 100 years. The tragedy for the Book of Maccabees gets worse. The book of the Maccabees gets lost. Like all of our ancient books, the Book of Maccabees was originally written in Hebrew but over the years - because of persecution, exiles and book burnings - the Hebrew version was lost, and the text only survived in a translation made into Greek called the Septuagint."

    The Orthodox Christians have only exalted Christ Almighty and have provided humanity the example of this from the ages unto the ages, Amen. Including praising the Maccabees.

    The last tsarist family was transported to Czechoslovakia. Russia and the Czech Republic should declassify everything. My grandfather accompanied them by boat to Trieste and then by train to Czechoslovakia. He always said that Masaryk and Lenin were friends, but it was not free (part of the golden imperial treasure). Therefore, it is not appropriate to publish this for Russia or the Czech Republic. That's why the Czechs say they didn't steal anything, but they can't tell the whole truth. Disgust
