For Aramaic (Sureth), follow the mass in (although here also Arabic and Aramaic (and Italian) are mixed #PopeInIraq #Aramaic
Apologies - most of the #Aramaic so far is in the form of Classical Syriac, not the modern spoken language (Sureth)
And the three readings from the Bible (OT, Epistles, Gospel) are in Arabic - obviously the language best understood by the majority of those present
with a beautiful chanting of the Gospel reading
Just now there was a prayer in the spoken Aramaic language of the Chaldeans and Assyrians
And one in #Turkish (no expert - the Turkish that is spoke in Iraq?)
And note the clerics from the other churches in Iraq
And now the choir takes it chances to perform (in Arabic)
And now there was the Lord's Prayer in Classical Syriac (by the choir)
Final song (with strong Evangelical influences) in English, Arabic and Aramaic

Vanavond is een goed moment nog iets te tweeten over de Chaldeeuwse Kerk in Irak, waar Paus Franciscus vanmiddag de mis opdroeg. Deze kerk ontstond in het midden van de 16de eeuw, maar officieel was het vandaag de eerste keer dat een paus zo'n 'Chaldeeuwse' mis celebreerde.
Dat klopt wel ongeveer, maar net niet helemaal: aan het einde van de dertiende eeuw waren er twee monnikken die uit China naar Baghdad waren gereisd naar het hoofd van hun kerk, de Kerk van het Oosten - de moederkerk van de huidige Chaldeeuwse Kerk, Rabban Sauma en Rabban Markos
Door een bijzondere samenloop van omstandigheden werd Markos de nieuwe patriarch van de kerk toen de vorige overleed ('hij sprak de taal van de Mongolen, die toen de aan macht waren'), en werd Rabban Sauma niet lang daarna als zijn boodschapper naar Europa gestuurd
