Notes
1. At 02:39, the Greek word for patience is "υπομονή" (ypomoní). This word is composed of two parts: "υπό" (hypo), meaning "under," and "μονή" (moní), which, among its various meanings, also refers to "monastery." The combination of these elements suggests that practicing patience involves staying "under" a disciplined state, much like being within a monastery. Although it isn't stated clearly, that's probably the meaning His Eminence wants to convey.
2. The phrase "Christ is with us, stand firm" is a translation of the Ancient Greek:
"Χριστός μεθ' ἡμῶν, στήτω."
3. "This is the Faith of the apostles, this is the Faith of the fathers, this is the Faith of the Orthodox, this Faith hath established the whole world" from The Synodikon of Orthodoxy.
