In the News (Thu 16 Feb 12)

  
  Saint Addai - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Among the Eastern Orthodox faithful, Saint Addai is the person who was sent by Saint Thomas the Apostle to Edessa in order to to heal King Abgar, who had fallen ill. Addai stayed to evangelize, and converted Abgar—or Agbar, or in one Latin version "Acbar"— and his people including Saint Aggai and Saint Mari.
Addai is also known as Addeus— or Thaddeus which is a doublet for Judas Thomas.
Addai appears in unorthodox material as well, in two previously unknown Apocalypses attributed to James the Just found at Nag Hammadi in 1945 (Eisenman 1997).

The Liturgy of the Apostles is so vague as to the purpose of the Invocation that, when the words of Institution are not said, it would be difficult to imagine this formula to be sufficient on any hypothesis, Eastern or Western.
The Anaphora is paralleled by Sursum corda, Preface, and Sanctus, a Nithi Mar, or Epiklesis, upon the oil, a commixture of the new oil with that of the Holy Horn, and the Lord's Prayer.

Nationality, to us, was in its early developments during the latter parts of 19th century, where most of the work of the Catholics like Mar Toma Audo, Alphonse Mangana, Mar Eugene Manna, Mar Addai Scher, and others was done.
At that time, and because of that influence, the religious term Chaldeenne was given extra weight, just as the Nestorian religious term was, in the absence of the national title.
There is no doubt at all that what was meant in reality, as the Syriac original term indicated, was the known then "Suryayeh" people and the "Soorith" langauge, which these writers knew from their fathers and grandfathers.
