Dear @Remnkemi,It seems you have a different version than the Bibles I have. Anyway, first things first:
Lk 5:21 According to David Wilkins, G Horner (Bohairic), Habib Guirguis, Mr. Bassem Soliman's website, Warren Wells Bohairic collection, anothe…
Dear @Remnkemi,
With all due respect to the coptologists and scientists you quoted, they are wrong. I don't know about Sa'idic but in Bohairic that is wrong. Please note that the Bible in Coptic was transferred to computer format by lay people, so m…
Dear @baempi,
Please refer me to those Biblical references he links. Or even give me a snapshot of those two pages to be able to comment. I actually perused the first four chapters of the BOOK of Leviticus and couldn't find anything you were referri…
@minatasgeel,
Here we should agree to disagree. There is no excuse for people to pray without understanding. Those cantors have a greater burden in being role examples to the rest of the church. I have lived 28 years in Egypt and I attended some of …
@baempi,
Unfortunately I don't have that book, but if you are right then such a Jewish linguist is mistaken..
@dg690,
Well said.. thank you
@minatasgeel,
Cantor Mikhail is wrong then..

Dear @baempi,
I can see my argument is not washing with you and to you it's just a mere argument. I respect that and I have nothing more to add..

Dear @baempi,
I am not making any assertions. These are fixed grammatical rules and there are no exceptions. Unfortunately this is not my teaching. If it were, I might have been more flexible. ALSO note that there have been numerous occasions of ina…
@Dinami,
Well done. We trust in you and you won't go back to such a sin like a dog to its vomit or a clean pig to the impure dirt.. you know what I mean.. sorry I can't translate it in proper English!
God be with you and pray hard.. and please also …
Dear @Dinami,
You don't need help because you defended yourself very well, preempted what anyone could say by: don't judge me. It's not about judging you, you are just being defensive because you are not keen on hearing tough words.
OK, you should t…
@minasafwat,
No this is blatantly wrong. There is no such a thing as the longer the phrase cancels the usage of the first article.. no, not at all. I will go back to the matins doxology but there is no shame in saying it is wrong too, and correcting…
@Anba_Antonios,
I don't know when you had travelled to north America, but at 18, and to have the grasp of English as you do, you are either trying to pull the wool over some eyes, or that you seriously have a massive issue with your self-esteem.
Wh…
"We can't get rid of it because people like it" that is the recently added songs because they rhyme but are weak in theology, language, and thoughts. I don't agree.Oujai khan ebshois
Dear @dg920,
I'm sorry if I offended you or caused you any kind of evil. Please forgive me and my style in posting on forums generally.. sorry again..

@minasafwat,
Thanks for the clarification.. that makes it very clear now and by the way I do agree with all what you said.. can you provide @Remnkemi with references for adam and watos henkat? I don't know the exact reference but I remember having r…
Dear @Remnkemi,
Don't be confused. Treat watos and adam as descriptions for word arrangements or syllables numbering if you like. Adam tunes are composed consisting of 5-7 syllables a quartet, while watos 7-9. They are not tunes in themselves just t…
Dear @dg920,
No more comments but please don't refer to sharat tune in the same sentence with Lent weekdays tune. There is no such a thing. By the way sorry if I had confused you as I didn't mean sharat of Palm Sunday are the same as Lenten ones.
@R…
Dear @dg920,
I'm sorry that I made you so frustrated by what I said in your defence of cantor Ibrahim. Ok, I won't argue anymore.
Just one point though, construction of psalm 150 on Lenten sharat in the ceremonial of the Cross or Palm Sunday is agai…
