  • Pioini, Pioik tune, Ifrahi Ya mariam tune, Marenounh Tune, Khen Oushout tune, Nai Etafhotpo, then the rest in the same tune as neknai o panoti. The long epouro may be said at the end.
  • QT, any beat you play on the cymbal can be fashioned to as if it were the tabla, its the beat we are used to, there isn't a beat where it sounds like the tabla and one where it doesn't. At least that i've heard
  • This is a great idea, the prayers of the saints be with all the students out there, if you guys could remember me in your prayers as well that would be great! Thanks all
  • Thanks guys lol
  • We are not catholic and we are not eastern orthodox either. We belong to the Oriental Orthodox Churches, which includes our sister churches from Eritrea, Syria, Ethiopia etc etc. Obviously you are right in that our pope is HH Pope Shenouda. We have …

  • There really isn't a set curriculum, but something to follow is just finish EVERYTHING annual(liturgy..vespers/matins..vesper praise...midnight praise), then move on to another season, like Kiahk or lent or w/e. Just stay consistent, don't jump arou…

  • I like Matt's response, either way you sing it its supported by very reputable sources(i don't account albeir as one however). I'm more or less talking about the older cantors who some did put a response and others didn't. Stick with one and you sho…

  • Ophadece, if they were charging you the total charge would most likely have been around $50 if shipping is 27. Its not their fault that you don't live in North America as orthodoxbookstore.org is the one you would order from. And they are focused on…

  • Yes of course He hears EVERYTHING, Knows EVERYTHING, Sees EVERYTHING, God is Limitless, He's not like us that we might miss something if so many people are talking. That's what makes God, God. God knows everything about you, every little detail, He …
  • Its is interesting that they fall on the same day but I don't think there really is a correlation between the two, I don't believe in coincidences really but I don't see something underlying this but thats just me. Interesting topic..
  • I personally love St. John Chrysostom's saying: "What good is it if we abstain from eating fish and birds but yet devour our brothers?" Sometimes we get caught up in making sure things are just right when we eat while fasting but we forget the impor…
  • Thanks for this Superman! God Bless you in all your efforts
  • That is not true, the righteous wait in paradise as CHRIST says to the thief, today you will be with me in paradise. Not hades and NO ONE can enter heaven until after judgement day,

  • Actually, Job was around the time of Abraham or possibly a little before. I haven't heard the rest of claims however.
  • Thats true it depends on the family, some names are kept in coptic because the original name was never "translated" if you will. Such as pishoy, or Kyrillos. So it depends on the name and the prefrence.
  • Actually we are, I was referring to one of the known authors of vesper praise madee7a's whose name was sarkis, Also what you have is very similar to our sunday theotokia which is said every saturday night which can be found here: http://tasbeha.org/…
  • The authors of most of the madee7at are not known, I know that for vesper praise madee7at the author was a cantor named Sarkis who would put his name in the hymn in some way. Oh im sorry, Madee7a=explanation specific to a hymn. and amdah fel batol=i…
  • The only commentaries to the theotokia's i know of are the madee7at of kiahk(which aren't really commentaries but they are explanations of the theotokias in a way) But those aren't very reliable and have many mistakes(such as the explanation of teoi…
