August 28, 2024 - Mesra 22, 1740 Departure of Micah, the Prophet On this day, the great righteous prophet Micah, departed. He prophesied about Samaria and Jerusalem during the time of Jotham, Ahaz and Hezkiah, kings of Judeah. He prophesied about the incarnation of the Lord, to Whom is the Glory, saying, For behold, the Lord is coming out of His high place. He will come down and tread on the high places of the earth. (Micah 1:3) He prophesied about His birth in Bethlehem, saying, But you Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of you shall come forth to Me. The one to be ruler in Israel. Whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting. (Micah 5:2) He prophesied about the futility of the Jewish temple and the going forth of the Law of the Gospel from Zion, saying, ... For out of Zion the Law shall go forth, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. (Micah 4:2) He also prophesied about the perdition of Ahab, king of Israel. (Micah 5:15,16) When this prophet finished his strife in peace, he departed at a good old age. He preceded the Lord Christ by about eight hundred years. May his prayers be with us. Amen. Martyrdom of St. Hadid On this day also, in the year 1103 A.M. (1387 A.D.), St. Hadid, was martyred. He was from the Giza Governorate. May his prayers be with us and Glory be to God forever. Amen. |
