Pravoslávny kalendár 7. júla Svätý veľký mučeník Chiriachi Za čias cisára Diokleciána (284-305) žil kresťan menom Dorotei so svojou manželkou Eusébiou, ktorí, pretože nemali synov, sa modlili k Bohu, aby im dal ovocie v lone, sľubujúc, že dá dieťa, ktoré sa narodí Bohu.

Boh teda vypočul ich modlitbu a v nedeľu sa im narodilo dieťa, preto ho nazvali Chiriachi (pretože v gréčtine Deň Pánov znamená nedeľu, nazýva sa to Chiriachi).

A ponechali si ju ako pannu, lebo sľúbili, že ju dajú Bohu. Ale keď mal svätý Chiriachi 16 rokov, pohanský cisár Dioklecián začal prenasledovať kresťanov. Potom boli svätici rodičia spolu s ňou obvinení, že sú kresťania.

A tak prišli kráľovskí služobníci a vzali všetkých troch a oddelili dievča od jej rodičov. Starcov odviedli do Melitene v Arménsku, kde trpeli pre Krista od prefekta Justa, a krásnu Chiriachi poslali v reťaziach k cézarovi Maximiánovi Galeriovi (293-311) do Nikomídie.

Keď skúmal krásnu pannu a videl jej vytrvalosť vo viere, prikázal byť krutý...

Her parents promised to give their child to God if they could have one, and they really followed through even when it got hard. Naming her Chiriachi because she was born on Sunday is such a nice detail. The part where they split her from her parents and sent her in chains to Maximian really hits home how tough it was.

Христо Христов

Родителите наистина са удържали на обещанието си, даже когато са я взели в окови на 16 години. Интересното е, че я кръстили Кириаки точно защото се родила в неделя – малка, но хубава подробност. Чудя се как ли са се чувствали в Мелитене, като са я разделили от тях.

George Anderson

That bit about naming her Chiriachi just because she was born on Sunday is a lovely touch. Her parents really stuck to their promise even after the soldiers dragged the three of them away and split the family up. Makes you wonder how Dorothei and Eusebia held up in Melitene knowing their girl was in chains heading to Maximian.

Δήμητρα Παπαγεωργίου

Οι γονείς της τήρησαν την υπόσχεσή τους μέχρι τέλους, ακόμα και όταν την πήραν δεμένη στα 16 της. Το ότι την ονόμασαν Κυριακή επειδή γεννήθηκε Κυριακή είναι μια όμορφη λεπτομέρεια. Αναρωτιέμαι πώς τα κατάφεραν οι δυο τους στη Μελιτηνή μόνοι τους.

Nicholas Anderson

Yes, that promise really tested them when the persecution hit. I always notice how they named her Chiriachi for being born on the Lord's Day – it feels like her whole life was already pointed toward Him. Did you catch the bit about her parents being sent off to Melitene while she went in chains to Nicomedia? Must have been heartbreaking.

Emma Carter

Yeah, that promise really showed what faith looks like when it costs something. The detail about sending her parents to Melitene in Armenia while chaining her off to Maximian in Nicomedia always gets me — it’s like the authorities knew exactly how to break a family. Did the story say how old her parents were when they finally suffered under Iustus?

Sophia Carter

Yes, that promise really tested them when the persecution hit. The way they kept her as a virgin even after she turned 16 shows they meant it. Did you notice how they sent her off in chains straight to Maximian while the parents went to Melitene?

Марина Морозова

Родители действительно сдержали слово, даже когда в 16 лет её в цепях отправили к Максимиану, а их самих в Мелитену. Интересно, что назвали Кириаки именно потому, что родилась в воскресенье — будто с самого начала всё было к этому. А что было дальше с ней у цезаря, в статье обрывается.

Katherine Johnson

Her parents' promise really does stand out, especially with the soldiers splitting them up like that. I always wonder too how Dorothei and Eusebia managed in Melitene, knowing their only child was in chains on the way to Maximian. The whole story makes me grateful we don't face that kind of test today.
