TO GENEQLIO TOU PRODROMOU
Το Γενέθλιο του Προδρόμου

The monasteries of Agia Varvara & Prodromou

Johannes Døperen,
hans ikon finnes på alle Ikonostaser i
alle Orthodoxe kirker.

Over alt i Hellas finner man kirker og klostere tilegnet til "Prådråmås".
Her har vi bl.a. den lille kirken på
klippen nærmere Glossa, topp foto,
- mest kjent nå fra Mamma Mia filmen.

Prådråmå kloster, på toppen av klosteråsen, foto rett over her, er selvfølgelig tilegnet
Johannes Døperen. 

Pro på gresk er forran, før
og dråmå er vei, så altså en forløper.
(Skopelitissa; veldig lett å 
kjenne igjen ikonen av Ag. Ioannis,
han er alltid avbildet med 2 hoder.)

St. John the Baptist,
whose icon is found on the Iconostasis
of all Orthodox churches.

All over Greece one find churches and monasteries dedicated to Prodromos.
Here amongst others we have the small church on top of the cliff closer to Glossa,
see my top photo, - now most known from the Mamma Mia movie.

Prodromou Monastery, on the top of
"the monastery hill", is of course dedicated
to John the Baptist.

Pro in Greek is in front, before,
and dromo is road, meaning a forunner.

(Skopelitissa; very easy to recognize the
icon of Ag. Ioannis, because he always

has two heads.)


Et av de mange Agios Ioannis ikonene i "Mamma Mia" kirken.
One of the many Agios Ioannis icones that is in the "Mamma Mia" church.

Wikipedia; Johannes Døperen er en person fra Det nye testamente. Han døpte sin tremenning Jesus Kristus i Jordanelven. I Danmark og Norge var han også kjent som St. Hans, en kortform av Johannes, og har gitt navn til høytiden St. Hans, den 24. juni som tradisjonelt regnes som hans fødselsdag.

From the Ortoxox 
Archdiocese of America;
St. John the Baptist was the prophet who baptized Christ and prepared His coming on earth; yet he suffered martyrdom for his holiness and obedience to the will of God. The Church has five feasts in honor of St. John the Baptist."

"Prodromos Mounth Athos; The Romanian Skete Prodromos (Romanian: Schitul românesc Prodromu) is a Romanian cenobitic skete belonging to the Great Lavra Monastery, located in the eastern extremity (called Vigla) of the Eastern Orthodox Monastic State of the Holy Mountain Athos, between the Aegean Sea in the East and the peak of Athos rising 2033 m in the West, nearby the cave of Athanasios the Athonite. Its name, Prodromos, is the Greek for "The Forerunner", a cognomen of St. John the Baptist.

It is one of the two Romanian establishments on the Mountain, the other one being Lakkoskiti.

Spiritually, through its mother monastery, and like all the Athos peninsula, it is under the jurisdiction of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. Currently, 25 monks live there."

Inne i den samme lille kirken.
Inside the same small church.

From Wikipedia, Prodromos 
(the Greek for "forerunner") may be:

The Eastern Orthodox believe that John was the last of the 
Old Testament prophets, thus serving as a bridge between that period of revelation and the New Covenant. They also teach that, following his death, John descended into Hades and there once more preached that Jesus the Messiah was coming, so he was the Forerunner of Christ in death as he had been in life. 
According to Sacred Tradition, John the Baptist appears at the time of death to those who have not heard the Gospel of Christ, and preaches the Good News to them, that all may have the opportunity to be saved.

a Skopelitian;

"Prodromos Kathiniotis is a Greek singer, who became famous after his participation in the reality show Big Brother but his career was shortlived. His nickname was the "blond loverboy" from Skopelos (famous Greek Island). He is currently apearing on the Greek daily TV show "H Ellada paizei" 
"Greece plays" - Alter Channel."

Jeg har kjent Prådråmås i mange år.
Han hadde et sommer-musikk-sted Thalassa.
I 2010 åpnet han og broren Ouzerian Aktaion på Paralian.

Gulliver hadde hans fars bosted; Giannis House på vei til Stafilos
i mange år. Giannis var en god gammeldags greker som alltid 
serverte sine gjester en ouzo med noe attåt.

I have know Prodromos for many years.
He had a music place Thalassa a bit on the way to the monasteries.
In 2010 he and his brother opened the Ouzeria Aktaion on the Paralia.

Gulliver had his fathers place Giannis House on the road to Stafilos
for many years. Giannis was a good traditional Greek who always
served his guests ouzo and a bit.

Håper alt er rett - det er mennskelig å feile!
