Matrona Nastovitsa, Matrona Polurepitsa

On April 9, the Orthodox commemorate Saint Matrona of Thessalonica. The saint lived at the turn of the 3rd-4th centuries in Thessaloniki and was a Jewish slave.

The lady of the Matrona, Pavtila, in every possible way forced the slave to renounce her faith in Christ, but the saint did not want to renounce Orthodoxy and secretly visited the temple from the mistress. Having found out about this, Pavtila ordered Matrona to be beaten with batons, and after that she left her to die in a dark and cold room. The body of the martyr was thrown down from the city wall by order of a Jewess. However, Pavtila was no longer destined to live. Giving says that she, having stumbled, flew after Matrona and crashed to death.

In Russia, Saint Matrona was given two nicknames: Nastovitsa and Polurepitsa. The first is associated with the onset of the spring thaw, and, as a result, the surface of the remaining snowdrifts was covered with a hard crust. And the second nickname was Matrona, because she was considered the patroness of the economy. On this day, as a rule, the saint was asked to give people a good harvest of turnips, since turnips were one of the main ingredients on the peasant table. The people looked at Matrona to the feathered brothers. If the birds scream and frolic in the evening, then the weather will be clear the next day. But if they fly above the ground itself, the next week will be dry.

April 9 Entry of the Lord into Jerusalem by Western Christians (Palm Sunday)

The Feast of the Lord's Entry into Jerusalem (also often called "Palm" or "Palm" Sunday) is celebrated a week before Easter, on the sixth Sunday of Great Lent. The Jewish people, under the dominion of the Roman Empire, expected the Messiah as a political liberator, and it seemed to many that the Wonderworker, who was able to resurrect the dead and feed five thousand people with a few breads, was the one who would lead the Jews to political freedom. That's why Jesus was greeted as a king - with palm branches. Of those who were then on the streets of Jerusalem, only Christ alone knew what his Mission actually consisted of: that instead of the earthly kingdom, He brings the Kingdom of Heaven to man, instead of deliverance from earthly slavery, He frees man from much worse slavery - from the slavery of sin. He Alone knew that the path now strewn with palm branches leads to execution on the cross.

The document obligated all residents of Moscow to keep the city clean, to monitor residential areas, streets, pavements and lanes. Throwing any garbage on the streets was punishable by law. Such people were given a heavy fine, and those who continued to pollute the capital were beaten with rods. The emperor watched the work of the janitors especially carefully. Also, under Peter, sewers and garbage cans began to be installed in the cities. And Muscovites, fearing the imperial wrath, began to litter much less.

When Engelbart was later asked why he gave his invention such unusual name, the American replied that the folded design was very much associated with a mouse. So this name took root behind the computer mouse. In addition, Engelbart admitted that he was not the only creator of the "box", he only gave the idea and developed the concept, and the device itself was designed by Bill English.

The team was later joined by Jeff Rulifson, who managed to significantly improve the design of the mouse and develop special software for it.

At present, one of the American universities has unique information documented on film, where Engelbart demonstrates his invention and shows its amazing possibilities for that time.

Choose a name that will sound good with a middle name. Sometimes parents do not give enough attention to this moment, and the child suffers in adulthood.

Be careful if you want to name a child after someone. It is advisable to familiarize yourself well with the biography of this person.

It happens that the name of the saint was liked, but it occurs on a different day, and not on the birthday of the child. In this case, the priests recommend looking through the church calendar and finding the name of the saint after the birthday. The first one that will meet and will be the name day. And if the name is not found in the calendar, then you need to seek help from a priest who will help you choose a consonant one.

Name day or namesake day is called one of the main and important in the life of every Christian. This day is considered the day of the heavenly patron of the child, after whom he was named. Priests recommend coming to church on such holidays and reading thanksgiving prayers to their guardian angels for protecting you.

Name of the child at baptism

It happens that at baptism the priest calls the child a different name. This is explained by the fact that when pointing damage or other magical rituals use church name child. That is why parents are forbidden to tell it to anyone. It is believed that the saint patronizes the baby and protects him from negative influences.

Remember that choosing a name is serious enough for every person. You need to think carefully before making a decision. After all, a child is given a name once and for all his life.

The Lord is always with you!
