DESCRIPTION:December 8th is the commemoration of the dukhrono of Sts. Joac
 him & Anne according to the Liturgical Calendar of the Syriac Orthodox Chu
 rch.\n\nMor Yuyakim & Mort Hannah (Deena) are the parents of St. Mary the 
 mother of God. They are both descendants of King David\, additionally St. 
 Anne comes from the priestly tribe of Levi & is a descendant of Aaron. The
 y were both very pious & god fearing. Apocryphal texts & Church tradition 
 tells us that Mort Hannah (who's name means blessed in Hebrew) was barren 
 & even to her old age could not have a child. They prayed & fasted continu
 ously for a child\, making a vow that their child will be offered unto God
 . An angel appeared before Hannah & said\, “God has seen your tears. The
  fruit of your womb will be called ‘the blessed’ throughout the world.
 ”Joachim also received a similar command. God blessed them with a child\
 , whom they named Mariam. \n\nAs St. Mary was born to her parents in their
  old age\, at the age of 3 she was offered to the temple as fulfillment of
  their vow. This event was once a Feast in the Syriac Orthodox Church Litu
 rgical Calendar being celebrated on November 21st each year. After offerin
 g Mariam to the temple Joachim died & he was entombed in Jerusalem. Soon H
 annah also died & was entombed along with her husband. The prayer from the
  book of daily offices (Sh'himo) on Friday morning reads\, ”Mary became 
 an orphan\, for her parents passed away. She was left for the priests to t
 ake care of her. They took her to Jerusalem according to the command of Mo
 ses to be brought up there."\n\nSt. Queen Helena built a Church over their
  tomb\, which was later taken over & made into a madrassa (Islamic school)
  in the 9th century.\n\nBiography adapted from\, 'Martyrs\, Saints and Pre
 lates of the Syriac Orthodox Church'\n\nOh Mor Yuyakim & Mort Hannah! Plea
 d for us before God's throne of grace. Amen.\n\nRSoH
