Advent Series: O Come, O Come, Emmanuel - a podcast by Mandy Arioto

In this festive episode, we unwrap the profound layers hidden within the classic Christmas hymn, 'O Come, O Come, Emmanuel.'

Originating from the monastic traditions of the 8th or 9th century, this hymn has echoed through time, carrying with it a secret message of hope.

We delve into the historical context of this hymn, understanding how it served as a meditation on the prophecies of the Messiah during a time of oppression and longing. 

One of the most captivating parts of our journey is the discovery of a secret code within the hymn's Latin antiphons. 

As we sing or listen to 'O Come, O Come, Emmanuel,' let’s reflect on this hidden message and embrace the timeless hope it offers.
