I accidentally stumbled on a mass of English translations of works by the current Coptic Pope, Shenouda III, at Google books. Brings up a long list. Some have preview; some are full view, and can be downloaded in PDF form. The first one I saw was a hagiography of St. The work is a modern composition in the traditional style, and references are on p.143 to sources like Eusebius HE, Jerome’s De viris illustribus, Severus ibn al-Mukaffa’s History of the Patriarchs, and other interesting-looking sources.

These books are an invaluable insight into modern Coptic church thinking. It is very good to see them accessible.

For which of us could otherwise even know they existed? Posted in Tagged, Post navigation.

It’s my pleasure Roger. Should you be interested in other books and publications by modern Coptic Orthodox writers, besides those authored by the late Pope Shenouda III, you can access and freely download these from another valuable online source known as The Alpha.

It’s the new website for COePA: Coptic Orthodox Electronic Publishing Australia. It’s got a wealth of English publications by the late Pope Shenouda III, other Bishops, members of the Clergy and scholarly Laity.

My advice is to click on the link “The Alpha Christian Orthodox Collection Downloads” located under the Main Menu and view the 13 subcategories, each with its own distinct collection. I’m assuming that since they are freely downloadable from a publishing company, therefore copyright shouldn’t really be a concern.

The ceremony was the first enthroning of a to take place in the new in Cairo. He was the third Alexandrian Partriarch to take the name Shenouda; his namesakes were (859–880) and (1047–1077). Less than one year after becoming Pope of the Church of Alexandria, in October 1972, Pope Shenouda visited the and the, becoming the first Alexandrian Pope to do so since the Christological schism of the in 451 CE.

In May 1973, he penned a Christological statement that was agreed upon with the Roman Catholic Church and the Oriental and Eastern Orthodox Churches on the Nature of Christ, in a step towards settling the dispute of 451 and moving towards Christian unity. On 10 May 1973, he celebrated the return by the Roman Catholic Church of part of the relics of St. From 25 to 30 September 1974, he went on a pastoral trip to visit the Ethiopian Church during the reign of Emperor of Ethiopia.

Political stances Falling out with President Sadat Ten years into his papacy, in 1981, Pope Shenouda III had famously fallen out with President of Egypt. The relationship between the two men deteriorated for several reasons.

Since coming to power, President Sadat had started encouraging the growth of Islamism in the country as means to fight groups and solidify his own power. During the term of office of Sadat's predecessor, Islamic groups such as the had been suppressed.

Sadat had also pushed forward a constitutional amendment that would have allowed him to stand for re-election as President more than twice. To make the constitutional amendment more appealing to the populace, Sadat bundled it with another constitutional amendment declaring Islamic Sharia law the main source of legislation, an action viewed as a step towards a more radically Islamic Egypt. Under Sadat, the Government released a census in 1977 that understated the number of Christians even contradicting earlier released censuses.

The years from 1972 to 1981 saw an escalation of violence against the Christians of Egypt culminating in a massacre of Christians in a poor district of Cairo in 1981. Pope Shenouda was of the opinion that Sadat's peace treaty with Israel was ill-timed and should have been part of a larger comprehensive peace in the Middle East. Sadat was seen by Shenouda as becoming increasingly dictatorial following his acclaim in the international arena for the peace accord with. In September 1981 Sadat rescinded the presidential decree of 1971 recognizing Shenouda as Pope of Alexandria, and Shenouda was banished by Sadat to an ancient desert monastery. However, the Christians of Egypt continued to view Shenouda as their Pope and only leader, and he continued to conduct his duties from his desert monastery: ecclesiastically, Sadat's decision was ineffective. Sadat was assassinated a month later, on 6 October 1981, by, and in January 1985 Pope Shenouda III was fully reinstated by Sadat's successor,. Israel Pope Shenouda III had arguments with then President over both the and what he said was the president's deficient response to growing.

After a series of protests that led president Sadat to depose Pope Shenouda III, he was exiled by Sadat and sent to the, to return three years after Sadat's assassination following an amnesty by Sadat's successor. His stance toward Israel was encapsulated by his words: From the Arabic national point we should not abandon our Palestinian brothers and our Arabic brothers by normalising our relations with the Jews. From the church point of view, Copts who go to Jerusalem betray their church in the case of 'Al-Sultan Monastery' that Israel refuses to give to the Copts. He also warned that Copts who visited Jerusalem would face excommunication on the premise that there was 'no pilgrimage duty in Christianity and it is not a religious pillar, so since this visit can do harm to our national cause and to the Muslim and Christian people then we better not visit Jerusalem.' He added that Copts should only go to Jerusalem after. Some of the Coptic property within the compound of the (including the Coptic monastery known as ) was to the. Upon the application of some bishops, the Coptic Orthodox Holy Synod, based on the direction of Pope Shenouda III, also decided to ask Copts not to visit Jerusalem until the Church possessions and the monastery be returned.

In 2006, the Holy Synod renewed the decree, urging Copts not to visit the Christian holy places in, including. His view on Palestinian was that it was a 'natural reaction to the pressure and depression in which Palestinians live.

They do not see any alternative but to explode themselves in the face of an enemy that uses all the means of power with no mercy.' Suicide bombers In the light of the, he said of suicide bombing as a tactic that: People who support and found reasons to feel good over these incidents are doing more than one wrong thing: first, ignoring the tragedy of killing an innocent group of people. Second, not thinking about the reaction of showing they found satisfaction in the incidents.

Third, they are considered accomplices in the crime. Fourth, they are committing a wrongful act not approved by religion.

Persecution of Christianity in Egypt in his time A large number of Muslims in Egypt unambiguously consider all non-Muslim religions as heresy. Persecution against Christians during Pope Shenouda III's reign was chiefly conducted by private individuals and organizations, especially radical, although the state continued to enforce long-standing discriminatory policies and engage in occasional Christian-baiting. Particularly in Upper Egypt, the rise in extremist Salafi groups such as the during the 1980s was accompanied by attacks on Copts and on Coptic churches. The police have been accused of siding with the attackers in some of these cases. Hundreds of Christian Coptic girls have been kidnapped and forcibly converted to Islam, as well as being victims of rape and forced marriage to Muslim men. On Sunday, 2 January 2000, 21 Coptic in Kosheh village in Upper (southern) Egypt, 450 kilometers south of Cairo, were.

Christian properties were also burned. Later, a criminal court in released all 89 defendants charged in the New Year's massacre in Kosheh without bail. Pope Shenouda III rejected the verdict openly, and told reporters, 'We want to challenge this ruling. We don't accept it.' As the court sentence could not be appealed, Pope Shenouda III said: 'We will appeal this sentence before God.' In April 2006, one person was killed and twelve injured in simultaneous knife attacks on three Coptic churches in Alexandria.

In November 2008, several thousand Muslims attacked a Coptic church in a suburb of Cairo on the day of its inauguration, forcing 800 Coptic Christians to barricade themselves in. In April 2009, two men were shot dead and another was injured by men after an vigil in the south of. On 18 September 2009, a Muslim man called Osama Araban beheaded a man in the village of Bagour, and injured 2 others in 2 different villages. He was arrested the following day. On the eve of 7 January 2010, after the Eastern Mass finished (which finishes around midnight), Copts were going out of Mar-Yuhanna (St.

John) church in city when three men in a car near the church. On New Year's Day 2011, just 20 minutes after midnight as were leaving a in the city of after a New Year's Eve service. On 7 May 2011, an armed group of Islamists, including, including Coptic Orthodox Christian Church and the Coptic Church of the Holy Virgin, in.

The attacks resulted in the deaths of 12 people and more than 230 wounded. It is reported that the events were triggered by a mixed marriage between a Christian woman and a Muslim man. Successive Egyptian governments have long held in place laws that hampered the freedom of Christian worship and restricted the right to build or even renovate churches.

They maintained and enforced an Ottoman era restrictions on building or repairing churches. These governments also restricted Christians from senior government, diplomatic, military, and educational positions, and there has been increasing discrimination in the private sector.

The government allowed various media outlets to attack Christianity and restricted Christians access to the state-controlled media to defent themselves or speak their minds. Security agencies sporadically persecuted Muslim converts to Christianity. In the government does not officially recognize conversions from Islam to Christianity; because certain interfaith marriages are not allowed either, this prevents marriages between converts to Christianity and those born in Christian communities, and also results in the children of Christian converts being classified as Muslims and given a Muslim education.

Pope Shenouda III during the consecration of a new Coptic Church in,. The papacy of Pope Shenouda III saw an expansion of the. While there were only four Coptic Orthodox churches in all of North America in 1971, today there are more than two hundred. Pope Shenouda established the first Diocese in the lands of immigration for the Coptic Orthodox Patriarchate in 1991, the; and appointed the general bishop for the United Kingdom at the time, to oversee it by consecrating and enthroning him as its bishop.

In this visit, Pope Shenouda III and signed a common declaration on the issue of and agreed to further discussions on Christianity.

There were also dialogues with various Protestant churches worldwide. In an address he gave at an ecumenical forum during the International Week of Prayer in 1974, he declared, 'The whole Christian world is anxious to see the church unite. Christian people, being fed up with divisions, are pushing their church leaders to do something about church unity and I am sure that the is inspiring us.' Ethiopian Church conflict Following the arrest and imprisonment of, Patriarch of Ethiopia, by the Marxist regime that had deposed Emperor in 1974, Pope Shenouda III refused to recognise the cleric who was installed as the Ethiopian Patriarch's successor. He, along with the Holy Synod, argued that the removal of Patriarch Abune Tewophilos was illegal and contrary to, as it was an act of political interference.

In the eyes of the Church of Alexandria, Abune Tewophilos remained the legitimate Patriarch of Ethiopia. Though Patriarch Tewophilos was said to have been executed, the did not acknowledge that this had happened. Thus, the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria refused to recognise any other Patriarch as long as ' death had not been confirmed. Formal ties between the Coptics Church and Ethiopia were then severed, although they remained in full. Formal relations between the two churches resumed on 13 July 2007. Theological disputes Pope Shenouda III was involved in theological disagreements concerning the issue of —the transforming effect of divine grace.

He published eight booklets explaining his view of theosis and lectured on the issue in the theological seminary of Cairo and also in the seminary of Alexandria. Following the death of Father, who held an opposing view, Pope Shenouda III issued warnings against those views. Other than the subliminal dispute with Fr. Matta El Meskeen, Shenouda got into theological disputes with Hany Mina Mikhail, George Habib Bebawi -whom he infamously excommunicated- and Henein Abd El Messih.
