- We visit St. Catherine's Monastery on Mt. Sinai where we interview and are given a tour by Fr. Justin Sinaites, the librarian of the monastery. This holy ground can be seen as the embodiment of the revelation of God to men. From Moses, to Elijah, to Holy Fathers such as St. John Climacus, we continue to experience the living God at Mt. Sinai until this very day.
Opening music: • Taksim arghoul
I have been to Mt Sinai it is breathtaking,it is so remote that you wonder how these monks survive it is amazing and the feel of peace is overwhelming God Bles all the Monks peace be with you all.
What a very Holy and Intelligent monk, this is a very touching and beautiful video thanks to Fr Justin.

Greetings from Egypt
Την ευχη σου Πατερ Ιουστινιανε ,και οσοι ειχαν την ευλογια και γνωρισαν τον Πατερα Παυλο η ευχη του απο τον Παραδεισο να μας σκεπαζει ολους.
Αμήν! Γνώρισα τον Πατέρα Παύλο, κ ήταν Άγιος! Δεν τον ξέχασα ποτέ κ τον μνημονεύω υπέρ αναπαύσεως πάντα. Νάσαι καλά που τον αγάπησες κ συ. ✝️
May the Lord Jesus bless us all! Thank you for sharing your hard work with the public! ☺😊
This was a beautifully designed video!
What a Beautiful & Holy place ! Rich of faith and spritual feelings and knowledge ! Great Great Library
I would love to visit this church
God bless you Fr. Justin
I will be visiting St. Catherine’s Monastery tomorrow. I’m very excited
How was it ?
@@filippaoronto3880 It was AMAZING! It was so beautiful! I even got to meet Father Justin and ask him some questions. ☺ He's a super nice guy, and you can tell he's very knowledgable. They don't allow you to take pictures of the artwork, but I saw paintings I have only ever seen in books, and seeing it in real life does not compare. There is truly a spiritual presence there. The chapel was just gorgeous. I'm not Orthodox, and I'm more familiar with churches in the Protestant/Catholic tradition, but the Orthodox aesthetic is also beautiful. And the bedouins I met were very interesting and friendly people! All in all, I feel very glad and very lucky that I was able to go.
Beautiful both religions live in peace the way it should be ❤️ you can share so much with each other ☦️
Dear GOD when am i going to be a real person & a real believer, ORTHODOX is the truth and the right path.
really enjoyed this - thanks
Why does the Trinity not appear in the Bible?peace...
@@lufhopespeacefully2037 Matthew 28:19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations [help the people to learn of Me, believe in Me, and obey My words], baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
@@catholicchristdisciple ,,ty for replying, as far as i know trinity is an old worshipping for some an egyptians who have worshipped ezice,authorice&hurce ,on the hill of that,the church hijacked the notion&also The concept of a trinity predates the Bible.. The much older Hindu Vedas had a holy trinity.Called the trimurti, it was Brahma the creator, Vishnu the preserver, and Shiva the destroyer, three individual deities that are also a single deity.
@lufhopespeacefully2037 That's nonsense. The Egyptians didn't have a trinity and there is no proof of that
@lufhopespeacefully2037 The trimurti are three seperate gods
The Trinity is one God
Nice try, but you failed
I have a tiny twig of the tree it is in my Bible.
Thanks for sharing this. What is the intro song?

Hallelujay Hallelujay Hallelujay
I’m here to see the pantoctator
I like to waching this video, but my english not very good,so I dont understand alot of what he talking about.
This place in Egypt right?
Yes
Read Galatians 4:25 and Exodus 3:1
God bless him! But this is not the real Mt Sinai. The actual mountain is in Saudi Arabia.
????
@@guillaumepinson9781 Mt Sinai is not in Egypt! Based on the bible it’s in Saudi Arabia and there’s historical and archaeological proof of this.
@@guillaumepinson9781 th-cam.com/video/0njUOfgh1kI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ENGUi6UTpu-WbX7Q
Moses has never been to The Arabian Peninsula they lied to you to gain some fake historical importance it is all here in Egypt
@ElanaMusk in Exodus 3 when Moses fled from Egypt he went to the land of Midian which is modern day Saudi Arabia. Also when god parted the sea through Moses it says that Israel crossed the Red Sea to get away from the Egyptians, when they crossed the red sea they crossed into Saudi Arabia. From there slowly they maid there way to the mountain of god, it is impossible for the mountain of god to be in Egypt.
They shouldn't allow an Islamic mosque at the monastery. They even allow Muslims to observe their religion and the Ramadan fast. This is all very sinful and scandalous.
There's literally nothing they can do about it. The Muslims shouldn't be there, but they currently own the land and would just kill the Christians.
I thought that it was very strange. When he said mosque I thought I misheard him but low and behold there it was
The monastery is in Egypt (a Muslim country); both religions honour the site as they are both Abrahamic religions; the neighboring Bedouins have protected the place for over a millenium; I can go on...... What exactly feels strange to you about neighbors peacefully and respectfully co- existing?
@@s.k.3891Because the Muslims practice a false demonic religion, and their presence is a mockery of what is holy. Optimally Christians could take full control of the site and send the Muslims packing.
@@s.k.3891 Egypt is not Muslim
You claim to believe in the 10 commandments yet you fill Mt Sinai with idols? Repent before the messiah comes
They're icons not idols. You are probably a protestant thus your ignorance. Orthodox Christians do not revere the wood or the paint but who the icon represents. Just like you'd keep a beloved one's picture close to you. That's not difficult to understand is it? Kissing and revering an icon you revere the Lord, Theotokos or Saint it represents. We show our love in this way. Maybe that's why Orthodoxy isn't stale dogmatism but the only true ancient church as it was handed down by the apostles.
Muslim Bedouins living around the monastery do not object to them, yet you do.? Your arrogance/ignorance is disgusting.
Thank you ☦️ Do you know how long father Justin has been there st St Catherine's my brother John was there a helper between 85 and 86 he was very young at the time wanted to become a monastic but left the monastery. He always regretted not staying to become a monk he passed away at 53 in 2021 but he never spoke about his monastic journey. I would like to visit the holy places he went . I wonder if father Justin new my brother he was intelligent and struggled with the passions ☦️ I would ask father if he could have a pannikihida in his name that would help him ☦️ God Bless my brother in Christ ☦️☦️☦️
May he rest in the peace of God that he was searching at the Monastery on the Sinai Mountain!
May he rest in peace
Your brother must have known Fr. Pavlos, who was one of the elders at St Catherine at that time, and who passed to the Lord a few years ago. I went twice in the 90's and never met Fr. Justin. He came later to the monastery from America. Memory eternal to your brother's soul.... 🙏☦
@@albertomanuelcheung7103 Thank you for sharing my brother in Christ ☦️ Peace be onto you☦️God Bless☦️
@@petergunn9149May God bless you always... 🙏
Such a blessing to see. God willing i will see it in person. Peace be with you father. God bless you all.
This documentary is a treasure in itself.
Very educational thank you for making and sharing this video
Now this is my type of place
I am a recent convert to Eastern Orthodoxy!
Christianity creates such spiritual bliss and perfection…..truly a reflection of the god they serve
God has preserved all the treasures from ancient times
Very holy indeed
Pace vouă, și rugăciunile voastre să ajungă la Dumnezeu (eu nu vorbesc engleza ) dar povestea Sf, Ecaterina o cunosc
Wonderful film depicting the deep spiritual beauty of this place of peace.
ORTHODOXY !
Fantastic
Amazing. as a Copt who learned Greek alphabet to understand Coptic language can relate to this ageless Egyptian-Greek cultural mix :)
What a wonderful video. Thank you to father for the amazing history. Thank you very much for posting the video.
Fr. Justin. Don't know if you would remember me. Fr. Boniface. Still in Totonto with the old calendar. Fr. Moses now Metropolitan Moses is my Archbishop. Evgloite!
Music theory is great and all, but can trap you in preset sounds especially if you over intellectualize it. That music at the beginning proves you can hop from major to mixolydian to Phrygian and still sound great.
Very beautiful and touching to see this, thank you
Praise the Lord Jesus we can video visit our Christian roots n heritage. Tq for the producers of this video. God bless you
Jesús didnt speak Arabic...
Praise God this is beautiful , glory to God 🙏
Peace of Christ to my Orthodox brothers and sisters from a Latin rite catholic.
Just like biblical and historical evidence proves that jesus and his apostles were vegatarians biblical and historical evidence also proves that the trinity, atonement, original sin and hell are very late misinterpretations and are not supported by the early creed hence its not a part of Christianity I pray that Allah swt revives Christianity both inside and out preserves and protects it and makes its massage be witnessed by all people but at the right moment, place and time
The secred text of the Bible says ye shall know them by their fruits
So too that I say to my christian brothers and sisters be fruitful and multiply
Best regards from a Muslim ( line of ismail )
@@theguyver4934 Muhammad didn't exist until the 7th century. The church had already held 5 ecumenical councils before Islam was even a thing. John of Damascus thought an Arian monk influenced this new sect. He actually thought it was a new heresy and called it the heresy of the Ishmaelites. Muhammad spread his new idea with the sword. He raided caravans outside of Mecca and once Mecca was weak he invaded it. False prophets like Muhammad come and go. There nothing new under the sun says Ecclesiastes.
Christ was lying jewish madman......
No salvation outside the Catholic Church. Schismatics must convert.
@@theguyver4934The Holy Trinity is not an INTERPRETATION! It is an APOCALYPSE. May the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior and only Son of the Father open your eyes and save you. ✝️ ☦️
Thank you this is wonderful. Love how he speaks scriptures
Excellent!
Thank you, Farris.
Who's Farris? The monk?
Farris is the creator of the video

Toda, Perez.
The fiery bush, is this the one that has volatile oils come from it? I've seen the one I mentioned in a catalog, so am curious.
What is there to the desert? Is it at night time its' qualities come out? Art Brll in the desert, a spook show host. Some like the desert, where I'm curious what's to like? Maybe that's just seeing the barren video.

Proud of my Orthodox Church

Alhamdulillah our last prophet Muhammad peace and blessing be upon him ordered us to protect all these holly places and protect our cristien brothers and and sisters. All these places would not exist if it wasn't 4 the Muslims God bless and protect them ameen
Thanks Father Justin for your words of wisdom,God Bless 🇺🇸
With all do respect father . Why do you say prophet mohammad instead of just Mohamed? He is not a prophet
I try to be respectful in comments . Maybe he just said it out of habit. I just hope he knows its a mistake .brother Eli your faith is strong. God bless you
How much time have you spent in a Muslim country? He is using the word as a conventional title, the way anyone in a Muslim country does who does not want to be the target of jihad. Obviously Muhammad is not his prophet, as a Christian, but M is called “Prophet M” in that culture. We’re not supposed to seek martyrdom, but use discernment.
I have lived in lebanon for 20 years .I'm sorry I don't agree no matter if you live in their house you shouldn't say that mohamed is a prophet . I don't even put a capital letter in his name
Forgive me .I don't mean to cause trouble . But this thing was highly talked about between Mount Athos and Alexandria. You should never under any circumstances call him a prophet. Die for what you believe in.
@andrewjoukhadar4758 Andrew btw look at your original comment you put a capital letter
JABAL Al LAWZ THE REAL MT SINAI
Wrong
Moses has never been to the The Arabian Peninsula they lied to you
