Ephrem the Syrian (Classical Syriac: ܡܪܝ ܐܦܪܝܡ ܣܘܪܝܝܐ Mār Ap̠rêm Suryāyâ, Classical Syriac pronunciation: [mɒr aɸˈrem surˈjɒˌjɒ]; Koine Greek: Ἐφραίμ ὁ Σῦρος; Latin: Ephraem Syrus, also known as Saint Ephraem, Ephrem, or Ephraim; c. 306 - 373) was a Syriac Christian deacon and a prolific Syriac-language hymnographer and theologian of the fourth century.
Ephrem is especially beloved in the Syriac Orthodox Church, and counted as a Venerable Father (i.e., a sainted Monk) in the Eastern Orthodox Church. His feast day is celebrated on 28 January and on the Saturday of the Venerable Fathers. He was declared a Doctor of the Church in the Catholic Church in 1920.
Ephrem wrote a wide variety of hymns, poems, and sermons in verse, as well as prose exegesis. These were works of practical theology for the edification of the Church in troubled times. So popular were his works, that, for centuries after his death, Christian authors wrote hundreds of pseudepigraphal works in his name. He has been called the most significant of all of the fathers of the Syriac-speaking church tradition.

Congratulations!
GOD BLESS YOU!!
May the blessings of Mor Efrem support you in your life for Jesus
GOD of saint Ephrem the Syria please forgive them and make a peace to Syrian people amen
And may they return to the Prince of Peace, the true Seal of Prophets Jesus.
The only real healing for the Middle East is turning/ returning to Jesus.
Ionisis the best narrator I love his voice and inflections. Truly a blessed man for narration
I have learned so much since I started attending the Byzantine rite rather than Latin. Make more videos like this. Thanks. Glory to Jesus Christ.
Kindly share , where is the holy relics of St ephrems situated at
This is Orthodoxy, :) It is infinitely deep, the spiritual life is at the focal point, and the heart is what matters. So come and experience.
@@Tonyshaji1 They are in the Monastery of St. Ephrem the Syrian. God bless☦
@@miccco. Can you share me the location
@@Tonyshaji1 Kontariotissa 601 00, Greece
This videos makes me wanna be like Ephrem .
What a great saintly man
May St. Ephrem hear these words of yours and help you and all of us be like him.
It brings me great joy to read comments like these!
These videos are so educational and pleasing, may Christ our God bless your endeavors.
Thank you
St. Ephraim's prayer resonates throughout the ages.
St. Ephrem pls pray for me. To have a spirit of love
Here in Ethiopian Orthodox tewahdo church, we have much love for st' Ephraim the Syrian❤ ... most Christians in our Orthodoxy church almost all, are used to pray his rhythm for st' Virgin Mary everyday. we call it 'praise of Mary' or 'wudase maryam' in our language ...ohh father Ephraim please pray for us and our Orthodox brothers and sisters in Syria😭
Thats why i dont like this , our way is jesus , not any saint .all priests and saints and us ,are same in christ , you dont him to pray for you , you can pray yourself
@@jerry_allen do you ask your friends and family to pray for you? If so why not ask the saints?
@@Gypsy2211 am not asking someone dead to pray for me man theres a difference , and jesus never asked us to ask someone else to pray for us , and why do you think a dead man is listening to your prayers ?
Jesus taught to have personal relationship with god never once he talks about asking someone to pray for us , especially dead
@@Gypsy2211 bible says jesus intercedes for us , he sits on the right in heaven not the saints
@@jerry_allen the Holy Saint Ephesus is not! God is a God of the living not dead His saints intercede for us as does more so the Mother of God-Virgin Mary to throne of our Lord and God Jesus Christ.
Thank you!
He is one of the best saint who explained alot about our beloved virgin Mary. From great Orhodox
May the Lord forgive the hearts of the people of ISIS, and guide them to light.
In our orthodox tewahdo we mention him alot.😍😍😍😍😍😍
Let us pray for our brothers and sisters in the Middle East, that they may persevere with courage and humility. God bless!
Lord bless your people
This is a wonderful film about St. Ephrem the Syrian. I've learned so much more about his life from this. The Prayer of St. Ephrem with the prostrations and metanoias is my favorite part of Great Lent.
Me roo
Greatings from an Iranian Muslim to all Christian brothers and sisters. I love all of the Orthodox Saints as well as some Catholic ones and receive much inspiration and wisdom from there in my own struggle to live a life that is pleasing to God. I am sorry to see what ISIS and similar groups have done to our Christian brothers and sisters. But as we all know they never represented Islam. Representatives of Islam are Muslim Saints who treated everyone with love and kindness without any consideration for their religious affiliations.
This is a lovely and inspiring video. Please continue to produce more of this kind of videos to supply the viewers with knowledge and inspiration. Thank you and God bless you and your work.
I love St.Ephrem!!!
May God forgive all the dark souls that perpetrate this destruction and replace darkness with Light and Love.
Great saint , glory to our lord Jesus Christ 🙏🏻
Thank you. #OrthodoxyOrDeath
Peace and love between humans! God bless you and all! Amen
A scholarly yet mysic rendering of Saint Ephrem the Syrian life and thought
I Thank You for this video!
+TrisagionFilms , you have once again mastered the ability to craft beautiful story telling with stunning visuals, and a meditative and prayerful sound which emphasizes the hesychia which these saintly men and women found in their own lives by the grace of our Christ. Thank you so much, reflecting on the live of the ever venerable Ephrem I pray that this Great Fast is one of introspection, humility, and a drawing nearer to our God.
Thank you for your kind words! Pray that we can continue this work for many years to come!
Just what I needed to hear
Love this! Thank you for sharing :)
Amen! 😢❤
This video is truly a blessing! Thank you so much for posting it!
You are more than welcome! God bless!
6:22, the prayer of St. Ephram, his most well known work.
Does anyone have a representation of the dream? I have been looking for it for years! Saint Ephrem is an inspiration for me and his figure translates what being a Christian, being Syrian or Syrian descendant means: he was a true saint with charity actions, worried about the poor, strong faith, enlightened mind!
We will never forget those saints and Christ lives in the East as well. I really wish that we descendants of Christian faith go back to Syria and Iraq and rebuild those places...may God bless this land and its people
I seem to remember seeing a very low resolution image of the dream.... But I am not sure.
Thanks
St. Ephrem pray for me!

Beautiful. Thank you for another great video
Thank you very much.
Sancte Epheme, Ora pro nobis!
Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on us sinners!!
This moved my soul very deeply. I imaged what would have been like to be his student and gained a deeper relationship with Christ. I’m not sure if there any books in English translation for the public. Just a beautiful Saint.
I believe many of his hymns have been translated in to english.
lm aramic syria 😘
What a wonderful prayer! Deo gratias.
Thanks for the video and all the hard work.
Thank you for your kind words!
Wonderful narration and video. Thank you 🙏🏻
This is my Orthodox name
This video is one of the most amazing videos, I am very proud to be Christian, and more proud to be a Syriac Orthodox. I would really appreciate it if you could send me a link to the hymns of this video. I have been looking every where to find those exact hymns all over the internet. Please send it to me if you have any idea who made them and where I can find them. I would be very thankful.
Have you found them yet, brother? If not I can help.
Anonymous19992012 No i actually haven't I would appreciate it if you can help me
Maybe I shouldn't have been so sure of myself. I was trying to use an app on a phone to assist, but with the speaker talking I'm unable to help. If I ever hear them elsewhere I'll come back. Please forgive me brother.
Anonymous19992012 i tried my self as well but i sid not find them, thank you so much for looking up
Maybe this one ua-cam.com/video/oTcsS-CBEa8/v-deo.html

What is singing in the end of this video?
This guy> ua-cam.com/video/9nJP-4JzMhQ/v-deo.html
Oh, thanks!
Who is the woman singing at 3:40 ?
I believe it’s Linda George
He asked God to send somebody to help him learn more about the word. The following morning a woman arrived to teach him. He said Lord , you sent me "A WOMAN", she exclaimed, we were made from man's side but man was taken from the dust of the earth. This is an account that I have read
I conclude ISIS members review their "Must Go to Hell" check-list every morning. . . . . .
Lmao
Russian subs would be nice. Wanted to watch it with somebody, but they don't understand engl...
If you or someone you know wants to contribute Russian subtitles to our videos please email us at trisagionproductions@gmail.com
@@Trisagionfilms Thanks, I will look!
I heard these books that he's supposed to have wrote, we're not wrote by him at all, in fact we wrote in the seventh century. because you mentioned the Muslim invasion that happened in the seventh century.
***** It may be, but it was not wrote by Ephrem Syrian, because of the Muslim invasion it mentioned, which like I said up above was in the 7th century..
+Steven Dunn do you have sources to back that up? I don't doubt anything but that is a huge oversight if proven true.
+Trisagionfilms I'm sorry I was referring to Pseudo-Ephraem. my mistake
Pls stop the back ground music
Very distracting
It cant be turned down as it is.
You are very distracting
Abraham was syrian like Issac Jacob ..this is in Duet 26:5
Christina Alt-al Abraham was Chaldean, more like South Iraq...
Why do y’all talk and move so slow? There’s plenty of content to maintain the time, but increase the rate of speech. Forgive me, I struggle to watch due to the slow pace.
The city if edessa was is ASSYRIA not Syria
He was Syrian not Assyrian
@@andreastheo2019 Syria didn’t even exist back then. There was never a Syria. It was mispronounced. It’s Assyria. Do your research and you’ll see for yourself.
@@sagesarabia5053 brother the arameans which Aramaic is from Syria not Iraq! You both are ancient but different peoples
@@andreastheo2019 I’m saying there was no Syria in ancient times. It was Assyria but pronounced Syria by Greeks and Romans. The name stuck.
Edessa was part of Assyria. Go look up King Abgar the Black. The only person to have an actual letter written to him by Jesus himself.
King Abgar was an Assyrian King in the city state of Edessa which was part of the remnants of the Assyrian empire.
Although the empire had collapsed, the area was still referred to as Assyria.
@@sagesarabia5053 yes Edessa and us Greeks did call “Assyria” just “Syria” but there still was a distinct identity for us at least between the Aramaic arameans of Syria and the assyrians of northern Iraq.
3:43 Torille!
torille perkel
Ephraim wasn't white but ty for this. p.s. #Jude3project
What color do you think he was?
this is NOT Ephraim of the Bible. Ephraim of the Bible is JOSEPH'S Son, whom JACOB took on as his own along with Manasseh. Ephraim was given the PROMISE, but both Ephraim and Manasseh was given the name Israel. gen 48.16
What? This is saint Ephraim born 300 years after Christ..
It is very clear that this is not Ephraim the son of Joseph and Asenath. The distinction is in the naming as we say St. Ephrem the Syrian. They also lived in vastly different time periods and had a different back story.
He also attacked and caused 're death of a prgenant cow.
