Truly He is Risen! He is Risen Indeed!
For the East. For the West. For all who call upon His Name shall be saved!
[1Co 15:20-26 NLT] But in fact, Christ has been raised from the dead. He is the first of a great harvest of all who have died. So you see, just as death came into the world through a man, now the resurrection from the dead has begun through another man. Just as everyone dies because we all belong to Adam, everyone who belongs to Christ will be given new life.
But there is an order to this resurrection: Christ was raised as the first of the harvest; then all who belong to Christ will be raised when he comes back. After that the end will come, when he will turn the Kingdom over to God the Father, having destroyed every ruler and authority and power. For Christ must reign until he humbles all his enemies beneath his feet. And the last enemy to be destroyed is death.
Thanks Be to GOD! May GOD bless you and your whole house richly this Holy Pascha! In Jesus’ name.
They named a city after that. Voskreshensk.
RISEN INDEED!
Indeed. Thunderstorms and neon signs
And a terrier realizing that cats get serious.
Amen.
But Easter was a month ago.
truly he is risen!
Eastern Orthodox Easter is May 4th, 2024.
I had to search on what battle it was - the Battle of Ulm. However, several sites indicate that is just a myth. Below is a good refutation of it being a simple mistake of the date.

Excerpt:
Dear Mr. McKay,
I'm happy to have an opportunity to think about 1805, thank you! I thought I had addressed that issue in a footnote, but perhaps not.
It is a myth. I have seen with my own eyes the march-plans the Austrian general staff developed showing where the Russian forces would be on each day—and using the right calendar. And I have seen no evidence whatever in the voluminous correspondence between the Russians and the Austrians and within the Austrian army and court that anyone was confused about this. It is a bizarre myth, particularly considering that Russian and Austrian armies had been fighting in close proximity for many years both against France and against Turkey, and all Russian correspondence directed to non-Russian recipients carried both dates as a matter of course.
I think that there is a contemporaneous French source that mentions this, and, of course, David Chandler picked it up in his Campaigns of Napoleon. But it is entirely without foundation.
Regards,
Fred Kagan
He is risen indeed!
Happy Easter
Why is Easter on a Saturday?
Cool.
Other days were busy...
Why is Easter not aligned with Passover?
Never understood that...
Anyway, Happy Easter!

Makes sense -- May the 4th be with you.
(You can't keep a good man down.)
Okay, a little Levity may seem unorthodox, but the Levites were in charge of all things Temple, and how about Mystik Dan winning by less than a nose with the triple-horse photo finish?
Dan means judge, Judah was the 4th son (may the 4th be with you), followed by Dan as the 5th, being Rachel's son by way of Bilhah.
Force = ko'ach [כח], 28, the number on the Jews in Space spaceship.
"It was the first time in 28 years that the Kentucky Derby was won by a nose, and just the 10th ever."

Genesis 49:17 Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that biteth the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall backward.
In Hebrew, to transcend is to elevate oneself [לְהִתְעַלּוֹת]. (Lehit'alot --it's the reflexive form.)
That infinitive = 941, the same as
Μάλχος (Malchus, the name of servant whose right ear had been cut off)
The name derives from Hebrew. Malchut [מלכות] = kingdom.
John 18
10 Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.
11 Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?
Now obviously Simon Peter had no business doing that.
The pun is mightier than the s-word.
"Fierceness, the 3-1 favorite, finished 15th"
Be blessed, everyone!
To be fair, what you have here makes at least as much sense as the pre-trib, pre-mill eschatological narrative -- e.g., "Uh, are we talking about three "Gog-Magog" wars here or is it just going to be two? Or one?" -- that one gets from the typical online dispensationalist huckster dimwit "Bible scholar" nowadays.
Anyway, for our Orthodox brethren, yes, He is risen indeed!
Jesus is Lord.
Interesting that my post got associated with end-timer imagination theories. I posted little bits of information that hail from all kinds of directions. Trivia to most, I suppose.
Well, it’s like I’ve been saying in general about that whole prophesy genre:
“Your surprise is waiting”
