Live broadcast: Ancient people accompany me to make up lessons

[I also learned new extracurricular knowledge from the video. Xiaoxiao has decided to catch up on relevant documentaries and TV series after the college entrance examination.

"These are the more famous female leaders in foreign countries. In fact, there are many more in so many European countries, but these three are considered to be excellent rulers recognized by all countries. Our country also has a queen, who is also very powerful.

Okay, let's let our next lucky viewer do the talking. ”]

Su Shi was also confused by various foreign country relations, royal relations, and complicated international relations, but he was particularly concerned about Voltaire and the Queen's "Lectures". Su Shi struggled for a long time, and finally asked: "Over there in Europe? What are Catholics, Protestants, Orthodox and Lutherans, are they all religious?”

Zhao Xu: As expected of Mr. Su, that’s a good question. I’m also very curious about what this is all about.

There were also missionaries in the court, but they were all Catholics. People from the Qing Dynasty who were not very familiar with other sects: Good question, as expected of Mr. Dongpo!

["What are religions? This is a bit complicated, I'll try to make it as simple as possible."

Fortunately, okay, Xiao Xiao is really good at this question.

She used to have a breakfast shop next door to a couple from other provinces who were selling breakfast. Both of them were believers, so out of curiosity, she also looked up the relevant history.

Opening the bookcase, she found a book that was a little bigger than her hand but as thick as three fingers wide. Xiao Xiao introduced: "Let's start with their Bible. The real name of this book should be It is the "New and Old Testaments", which was brought to China by Nestorian missionaries in the ninth year of Zhenguan in our country. Taking its 'sacred model' and 'heaven and earth scriptures and meanings', the name "Bible" came into being."

I only forgot the textbook knowledge during time travel, and now I remember it clearly in my miscellaneous mind. 】

It was the ninth year of Zhenguan, so it was seven years later.

In the second year of Zhenguan, the monarchs and ministers looked at each other, and someone immediately said dissatisfiedly: "'He who listens to faith is called a saint', but it is just a book of one religion. How can it be called a 'Bible' with so much virtue?"

In Confucianism, only ideal figures with extremely high moral wisdom can be called "sage", and the emperor is also called a saint. How can a book of this religion use such a name? They don't call so many sages and scriptures like this. , too shameless.

Li Shimin, who also thought so, reassured him: "My lords, Nestorianism has not yet been introduced, so we really need to pay more attention to the translation."

Li Zhi knocked on the table: "What's the name of the Nestorian scriptures?"

He and his queen have just been called two saints. Nothing they wrote is called holy literature. How dare a small cult call it that.

Wu Meiniang asked people to ask the relevant officials, and comforted: "It was only introduced in the ninth year of Zhenguan. Maybe it was called this name later."

But why they were called this name? Later, this sect took place in the Central Plains. The couple had a tacit understanding and no one said it, but they both remembered it in their hearts.

["The Old and New Testaments", so it is divided into the Old Testament and the New Testament. It contains various stories about God and religious believers. With birth as the dividing line, the New Testament records a series of events after the birth of Jesus. , it is the Old Testament that does not record Jesus.

I often talk about the year AD. The first year AD is the day Jesus was born, and the day he was born is Christmas. ”]

Ying Zheng's eyes twitched. No one here had ever been born on a holiday, let alone the name of the holiday.

Liu Che, who has always had smooth sailing and always compares favorably with the scorching sun, frowned: "'Christmas', that's such a big deal!" He didn't even call his birthday such a holiday, so why should he be such a countryman?

"Later generations even changed the calendar to this religion?" Zhu Yuanzhang, who was committed to reshaping the Han Dynasty's clothes, couldn't believe that later generations even changed the traditional calendar into someone else's.

Kangxi was also guessing how the AD chronology was used, and then his hands shook when he heard this, and the tea cup in his hand fell to the ground with a plop and broke, and the tea splashed all over the floor.

Western calendar...

In the past, calendars not only guided production, but were also closely related to politics. With one calendar, the rulers of several dynasties were keenly aware of the unusualness of later generations.

["In the Old Testament, Abraham is a descendant of Adam and Eve. One day they met God, and God said to him: Go to Canaan, that is a place for you, as long as you and you and your If future generations believe in me, then you and your descendants will build a great kingdom there.

This is the origin of the Promised Land - Canaan

So Abraham came to live here. Later, his grandson met God, and God named him Israel. Israel had a son named Joseph who was sold to Egypt because he was jealous of his other sons because he was too good.

Later, due to a great famine in the Canaan region, the Israelites migrated out of Canaan for the first time and fled to Egypt. As a result, their son Joseph was already prospering in Egypt. Regardless of past grudges, he persuaded Egypt to give Israel and his children a place to live.

Later, as the number of Israelites increased, the Egyptian rulers began to enslave them because they were worried that they would turn into foreign guests. Until a man named Moses appeared among them. He received guidance from God and led the Israelites to escape back to Canaan with God's help.

During the escape, Moses said that he had made a contract with God, saying that the Israelites were God's chosen people. As long as they lived according to the contract and believed in God, the Israelites would receive God's salvation. "

She took a sip of coffee, moistened her throat, and then continued.

"Later, Israel entered the era of three kings, King Saul, King David, and King Solomon. Solomon built the most important temple in Israel, which also became the First Temple. After his death, the unified Kingdom of Israel split, forming the Northern Kingdom of Israel. and the southern kingdom of Judah, which continued the lineage of King David.

Later, the Assyrian Empire rose and destroyed Israel in the north. The only descendants of Israel were the branch Kingdom of Judah, that is, the Jews. They inherited the faith of the Israelites. The agreement between their ancestors and God was the Old Testament. The religion that spread only within the ethnic group was Judaism. ”]

The ancients under the canopy were confused. They didn't understand what they believed in, and how it could be the belief of an ethnic group.

Su Shi: Didn’t I ask about God, Dongzheng, etc. Why did it come to this Jewish person first?

["Judaism is the first among several families to establish doctrines, followed by Christianity. When the Mediterranean was ruled by the Romans, Jesus was born. When he grew up, Jesus said that he was the son of God, performed many miracles, and followed There are more and more people.

He accepted twelve disciples and took them to Jerusalem, where there was a Jewish church. Jesus came here and said that he was the Son of God and the King of the Jews. He was regarded as a thorn in the side of the Jewish elders. Then Judas, one of the Twelve Apostles, betrayed Jesus for 30 pieces of silver, causing Jesus to be killed and his body nailed to a cross by the Romans.

Jesus resurrected on the third day after his death. Let believers come to see him and spread his deeds, and he will bless them to enter heaven. The Jews who believed in Jesus began to spread the deeds of Jesus and compiled them into a book, which is the New Testament, the agreement signed between God and Jesus believers.

Believers in Jesus are not limited to racial identity. As long as you believe in Jesus, you will be saved. More and more people believe in Jesus, and soon the Roman Empire is full of believers. The Roman Empire, which believed in polytheism, began to suppress Christians. Until the Roman Emperor Constantine himself believed in Christianity, Christianity became the legal religion of the Roman Empire. ”]

Su Shi: Did he just say he was the son of God? There are also things like death and resurrection. This is too outrageous, so others will believe it?

Yinzhen, who followed the missionary who had also heard these things, nodded. Although it was a bit simpler, it was pretty much the same. This was the situation.

[“Because Rome is so big, there are deviations in the understanding of doctrines in different places, so Constantine held a doctrinal conference to allow church patriarchs with different understandings to debate. The most famous one was about whether Jesus was a human being. Still a god.

Later, Christianity became the state religion of the Roman Empire. As the Roman Empire split into East and West Rome, Christianity also began to split.

The Eastern Church, centered in Constantinople, and the Western Church, centered in Rome. The Roman Church made its own pope a pope and asked the Eastern Church to recognize his status. The Eastern Church refused to recognize it, and the two sides officially split.

The West calls itself the Roman Universal Church, the Catholic Church, and the East calls itself the Authentic Universal Church, the Orthodox Church. ”]

"So that's it. All European countries believe in Catholicism, and Russia believes in Orthodox Christianity. Although they are one family, there must be only one orthodoxy, so there will naturally be conflicts."

Su Shi almost figured it out. No wonder Queen Catherine had a very delicate relationship with Europe, and she changed her faith when she got married. If you don't change this belief, in the eyes of the Russians, you will be an outsider to Catholicism. It's strange that you like him.

In comparison, Peter III not only did not change his faith himself, but also tried to change others' beliefs. This is equivalent to telling them now that Xunzi is the orthodox Confucian school, and Confucius and Mencius are not the same. This is something that a person cannot stand.

Serious Buddhists: Why do you separate sects just like separating sects from each other until death? We also have Faxiang Sect, Zen Sect, Lotus Sect, Pure Land Sect... there are so many, and no one thinks that they are the only ones in such a large country. Zong.

Your Majesty, please believe us, we really don’t want to be the only state religion!

[“Because only a few clergy in the Catholic Church have the New Testament, the clergy monopolized the power of religious interpretation. Until Martin Luther promoted the religious reform, Protestantism was born.

The Catholic Pope is the person closest to God, while Protestants believe that as long as they believe in Jesus, everyone can be saved and can understand the Bible and communicate with God based on their own experience. The more famous Protestant denominations are Anglicanism, Lutheranism and Calvinism.

Regardless of whether they are Catholics, Orthodox Christians, or Protestants, they all believe in Jesus, and the sect is universal. However, Judaism does not believe in Jesus, because they only believe that the Jews are God’s chosen people, and only they will receive God’s salvation. ”]

Su Shi thought about it in his mind. Judaism was the first to be independent. Below it was divided into a Christ, and here it was divided into God and Orthodoxy. God had Protestantism, and Protestantism also had different sects.

He regretted that he should have asked the pope what was going on, how could he be called that, and why the leader of a country still had to sign his approval when getting married.
