Universal History: The Christian Continuation of Hanukkah | with Richard Rohlin
Channel: Jonathan Pageau
Category: People & Blogs
Description: In this episode of the universal history series Richard Rohlin and I build on our previous discussion about Groundhog Day and its connection to the Orthodox feast of the Meeting of the Lord in the Temple, which is actually one of four winter feasts (The Entrance of the Theotokos to the Temple, the Nativity, Theophany and finally the Meeting of the Lord in the Temple). Together these four celebrations are a continuation of the Jewish feast of Hanukkah. This episode is all about their surrounding symbolism, liturgy, iconography and how they tie into the astronomical year. - Episode on Groundhog Day and the Meeting of our Lord in the Temple: youtu.be/dX6PZBS1Q9Q - The Universal History series: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVX4HUUPrIY_M2uZP3yW6EEiod3fGD6FD Recommended book: - The Stripping of the Altars: Traditional Religion in England, 1400-1580, by Eamon Duffy: amazon.com/Stripping-Altars-Traditional-Religion-1400-1580/dp/0300108281 ============= Richard’s work: - Richard Rohlin’s articles on The Symbolic World blog: thesymbolicworld.com/author/richard_rohlin - Amon Sûl podcast (Exploring the Tolkien Legendarium with the Christian Faith): ancientfaith.com/podcasts/amonsul - Amid Weeping There is Joy: amazon.com/Amid-Weeping-There-Joy-Perspectives/dp/1951536126 ============= Timestamps: 00:00:00 - Coming up next... 00:00:18 - Intro music 00:00:45 - The 4 major winter feasts & Hanukkah (start) 00:01:15 - The year cycle 00:02:35 - Ven.
