This paradoxical interpretation is found also in St. Philoxenos w hen he writes in his commentary on John's Prologue: "He carried the Cross which is connected with disgrace so that we achieve a victory that is full of honour."Mor Jacob of Sarug also uses this term in his homilies on the Apostle Thomas. In the second homily\, we read that the Lord tells Thomas to take up the Cross and go to India\, without feeling ashamed of it becau se it is the vehicle by which the Lord went to the land of the dead and de stroyed both sin and death. James writes: 'By this vehicle I killed the hu man killer\, the evil\, and by it \;I weakened death who had weakened the course of the earth. This Cross has become a vehicle for Me towards th e dead\, and by it I freed the thief from all captivity.'Reflecting on the faith of the repentant thief\, St. Ephrem the Syrian writes in his 'Comme ntary on the Diatessaron'\, "It was because he had seen\, with the eyes of faith\, the dignity of our Lord instead of His shame\, and His glory inst ead of His humiliation\, that he said\, "Remember me." What is apparent no w\, the nails\, the cross\, will not make me forget what will be at the co nsummation and which is not yet visible\, Your kingdom and Your glory."Ref erence: Mor Cyril Aphrem Karim\, 'The Sign of the Cross'\, in Pro Oriente Syriac Dialogue V 2003\; 'Saint Ephrem's Commentary on Tatian's Diatessaro n'The Enigma of The Cross (courtesy Urho\, the Way): \;https://urhothe way.com/2020/07/06/the-enigma-of-the-cross/ LOCATION: END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
