Monasticism isn't simply a bailout option for when life becomes too much for you. Its not an escape mechanism. Many people think that monasticism is for them, but because they desire it for the wrong reasons, they will never be fruitful therein. If…

Hi dzheremi, I really recommend that you read On the Incarnation by St. Athanasius if you haven't done so already. It explains the reason that salvation had to occur the way it did by starting right at the beginning of creation. Read it for yours…

St. Cyril also speaks of it in his Commentary on the Gospel of St. John: [quote author=St. Cyril] 14 And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting. The Jews are again hereby too convicted of de…

[quote author=St. John Chrysostom, Homily 67 on the Gospel of St. Matthew] Therefore He adds also the accusation. What then is this? John came, He says, unto you, not unto them, and not this only, but; also in the way of righteousness. For neither w…

[quote author=St. John Chrysostom, Homily 67 on the Gospel of St. Matthew] Matthew 21:12-13. And Jesus went into the temple, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers and the seats of…

You see, its the behaviour in threads like these that has wrecked this forum for me, and I expect for a number of people too. You start off with a simple question: "Is the Gospel of John read on the resurrection?" The OP is answered in the very f…

[quote author=TITL link=topic=12334.msg145467#msg145467 date=1317478706] I'm actually with sodr2 on this. Why would I ever pray "Judge me O Lord for I have walked in my innocence"? [/quote] One can perhaps think of it as the state they should be st…

Overview "Deacon" is a Syrian word that means servant. In Greek, it is called "Deyakon". The deacon's main job is to help the priest or bishop in his religious service. The first church appointed seven deacons to serve tables, who were filled with …

From what I understand, in olden times when the Church was consecrated with the Holy Myron, they also consecrated the floors. Whether that lead to people having to remove their shoes, or whether it was only acceptable because people would always r…

[quote author=imikhail link=topic=12035.msg143109#msg143109 date=1313176263] I am not sure what is missing here. The Pentecost has two psalis, one Watos and one Adam. The Watos is said on Saturday during the Vespers praises, the Adam is said during…

[quote author=ophadece link=topic=12037.msg143108#msg143108 date=1313176190] JG, you are wrong. In Coptic the construct is always paikocmoc vai - tai`trapeza ;ai - paiavot vai - paiehoou vai - naiselet nai (as far as I remember meaning these two wed…

Thanks for clearing that up imikhail. So in summary: paikocmoc = "this world" paikocmoc vai = "this very world" (which would be a bit nonsensical unless you were discussing other planets.)

[quote author=minatasgeel link=topic=12035.msg143092#msg143092 date=1313163339] for the psalies, that is a clear example of hymns that when titled adam or watos, they refer to the tune and the day. [/quote] Not necessarily: there is both an Psali A…

Anyone of the older generation of cantors? Cantor Farag or Faheem for example?
