Five Steps to Good Friday
By John Daoud, Pauli Murray College ‘21.
Glory be unto God, for it is unto Him we give thanks for having brought us to this blessed Holy Week, in which we commemorate the Passion of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. What follows are just a few short reflections I have on the orders of the week, per the tradition of the Coptic Orthodox Church. The translation used is NRSV.
Blessed Are Those Who Have Mercy
By John Daoud, MY ‘21. John is majoring in Near Eastern Studies.
“Blessed are those who have mercy
Who give to the poor and fast and pray
The Holy Spirit will fill their hearts
The Son will show them mercy on judgement day”
