Apostle Thaddaeus

THADDAEUS THE APOSTLE – One of the 12 apostles (Mark 3:18). In Matthew 10:3, the Textus Receptus identifies him as “Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddeus” (KJV). Thaddaeus is identified with a missionary named Thaddaeus in Syria and/or associated with the noncanonical work Acts of Thaddeus.

Fame is a kind of *soup,* Adrian Ghenie has said. The remark brings to mind the *primeval soup* from which humanity is often said to have emerged, formlessness slowly becoming form. But what kind of form? And how upright and stable will that form prove to be when it does emerge?

Ghenie considers the baleful effect of social media and interprets a howling, turbulent tragedy in his paintings of Marilyn Monroe in “The Fear of NOW” at Thaddaeus Ropac gallery.

Join us in Paris Marais, tomorrow, Tuesday, 6–8pm, for the opening of Robert Rauschenberg, 'Japanese Clayworks'. The exhibition presents a selection of key works on ceramic by Robert Rauschenberg from the 1980s, including rarely seen works from a formative series, which will be exhibited in collaboration with the @rauschenbergfoundation. ‘I think collaboration is a prescription or device that keeps one from getting hung up on a strong single intention that blinds. [...] Every individual that you add to a project will result in ten times as many possibilities.’ — Robert Rauschenberg, 1987

SAINTS OF THE DAY (October 28)

St. Jude Thaddaeus

St. Jude, known as Thaddaeus, was a brother of St. James the Lesser and a relative of Jesus.

Ancient writers tell us that he preached the Gospel in Judea, Samaria, Idumaea, Syria, Mesopotamia, and Lybia.

According to Eusebius, he returned to Jerusalem in the year 62 and assisted at the election of his brother, St. Simeon, as Bishop of Jerusalem.

He is an author of an epistle (letter) to the Churches of the East, in particular the Jewish converts, directed against the heresies of the Simonians, Nicolaites, and Gnostics.

This Apostle is said to have suffered martyrdom in Armenia, which was then subject to Persia.

The final conversion of the Armenian nation to Christianity did not take place until the third century A.D.

St. Jude was the one who asked Jesus at the Last Supper why He would not manifest Himself to the whole world after His resurrection.

Little else is known of his life, but legend claims that he visited Beirut and Edessa.

He was beaten to death with a club, then beheaded post-mortem in 1st century Persia.

His relics reside at Saint Peter's in Rome, at Rheims, and at Toulouse, France.

Saint Jude Thaddeus is not the same person as Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Our Lord and despaired because of his great sin and lack of trust in God's mercy.

St. Jude Thaddeus is invoked in desperate situations because his New Testament letter stresses that the faithful should persevere in the environment of harsh, difficult circumstances, just as their forefathers had done before them.

Therefore, he is the patron of desperate situations, forgotten causes, hospital workers, hospitals, impossible causes, lost causes, and the diocese of Saint Petersburg, Florida.

He is represented as bearded man holding an oar, a boat, boat hook, a club, an axe or a book.

Nearly every image of him depicts him wearing a medallion with a profile of Jesus.

He usually has a small flame above his head and often carries a pen.

We remember him on October 28 in Roman Church and June 19 in Eastern Church.

St. Simon the Zealot

Little is known about the post-Pentecost life of St. Simon, who had been called a Zealot.

He is thought to have preached in Egypt and then to have joined St. Jude in Persia.

Here, he was supposedly martyred by being cut in half with a saw, a tool he is often depicted with.

However, the 4th-century St. Basil the Great says he died in Edessa, peacefully.
