The Apostles went into Syria and all the surrounding area’s. The whole of the Middle east was turned upside down and the gospel spread throughout the empire of the Romans. Today, it hardly seems like the same place; except in some places where ancient lines of Christianity still hold it’s place. That is until ISIS and it’s counterparts in the middle east; radical Islamic fighters who see it as their job to murder, rape, pillage, and behead their way across large swathes of Libya, Syria, and Iraq. Just like Genghis Khan who bore down in the far east with his hordes of monguls putting the devil and the fear of darkness into the souls of those who feared his armies; Islamic fighters of ISIS and others do the same. Put fear, slaughter in the name of your God, and don’t stop till your dead.

The recordings document Syriac language and one of the oldest existing forms of song, liturgical chant, which is similar to the Western tradition of plainsong.

I love music, love it’s sounds; classical, liturgical, and I do like this; Music is for the soul and heart and when sung by someone whose heart is full of a song; it can be breath taking! Music is Gods gift, but man has abused it and the Devil perverted it!

WIBR/WARN Radio commentary on Syriac Christians and the persecution

Fleeing ISIS Into Exile, Syriac Christians Sing the Oldest Music on Earth

The last time they came along the road to the monastery of Mar Mattai in northern Iraq, it was September. Then, there was a queue of cars stretching back to Mosul. There were little girls in white dresses with curly hair tied up in ribbons. Mothers carried sponge-cakes in boxes on their knees. Their husbands, moustaches…
