A tai-Parthenos.

@Daniel_Kyrillos...we tend to set the facts that we know and see in books and recordings, then theorize on how we got to there :-)Here is what we know and do now in church:1-Tarh elfa3alla is the adam commentary said on sunday evenings in Kiahk--the…

The book of Daniel is very unique. Almost all of it (leaving out the historical stories like going into the den of lions twice, or the story of the three saintly youth) shouldn't be interpreted literally. The book is on the same level as the book of…

@Stephanos...I forgot to say, welcome to the forum. I hope we answer any of your questions here. What kind of research are you doing though? I only ask because this specific hymn (psali) you are referencing is one of many that not much people know a…

This is a reference to what's in Daniel 2 (NKJV): 31 “You, O king, were watching; and behold, a great image! This great image, whose splendor was excellent, stood before you; and its form was awesome. 32 This image’s head was of fine gold, its chest…

The simple reason is that Cantor Ibrahim simply didn't record it. His Kiahk set was done a long time ago (possibly before i was born in the late 80s) and this pachois is not really famous neither is it in many books for everyone to say it. We now ar…

The Synod decided back in 1999 on saying Teeshouri despite the rite of the day.
-
maybe because it is improper to say tai-shouri?! It should always be teeshori. I'll see if I can reach out to someone from the CR team to confirm this.

I fixed the extra hymns added into the annual and fasts categories. anyone with an account can "add" a hymn so these were prob added by mistake. as for the feast of the cross matins procession, the link is not broken. It's just that the category is …

@Daniel_Kyrillos...So there are some problems with whatever you said in the first section:1-Deaconesses in the church are NOT the equivalent of deacons since their duties are totally different. You can't just say that a deacon or a deaconess is any …

@minasoliman...to some certain extent i agree...but i didn't want to get any arguments by saying so :-)

The style looks like George Edwards in the Southern Diocese. He did many churches there including the main church in the texas monastery:https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https://copticliterature.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/t15.png&imgref…

Rites change through the years. The senixar was not really said during the liturgy of the word but it was a later addition. You also have to consider that the senixar as a book--a collection of commemorations of saints daily--was not a book that eve…

@ophadece, after the senixar

Egypt. Mahabba bookstore kholagy.

That's a very interesting questions that i haven't heard before. I think the answer is that monasticism is just a vow and none of its orders/levels are not of the liturgical ranks. deaconship and its ranks are higher than monks in ranks. This is sim…

The best are the ones published by Raleigh NC church:http://www.stmosesbookstore.org/index.php/books/search?keyword=Katamerous+&limitstart=0&option=com_virtuemart&view=category Sanawi means you need atleast the Sundays katamerous and th…

haha...OB of GB syllables?! because there are 8 on the first stanza....not that i believe that the number of syllables is THAT crucial to the process of chanting in.
-
@ophadece. I think it just sounds unique. Many do the mistake of saying it like khen oshout, but it's not.
-
They have the grace to bless people and pray and give absolutions. It's not exactly them that is doing this, but the grace of the Spirit in them. It's best then to do that with the cross to testify to that fact. And since this is all they're suppose…

@ophadece...The Psalies & Commentaries book say that this tarh is Watos. Most other books don't say it's watos or adam. There is one more book in church i want to check--The Rite of Holy Week by Fr Attalla Arsanius El-Maharaqi. It may have some …

1-Its basically the Senixar in Tasbeha. It has the stories of saints (not all--mostly a saint or 2 a reading) but in a poetic form rather then just a reading. Sadly it has been abandoned a while back and therefore many of it's text has many myths an…

Welcome Daniel

I guess we have the same friends on facebook :-) I liked Fr. Moses article to some certain extent. It was a good response to article/blog that was posted by an anonymous female who i guess is very angry at the church for many problems (i would rathe…

We do have a problem in deaconship where ranks are given in a young age thinking that it will help the child grow into the rank and does its duties....but that rarely happens. Recently through, bishops have been more aware of this problem and give r…

--I'll be honest, I don't believe that it was due to "less need". Culture, maybe, since Egypt is still a pretty patriarchal country. But if the early church had women serving as deacons then what changed that we no longer have this? I can't disagree…

There are actually lot of more errors on this page so i am going to edit it.
-
@Khepra...i don't think it's really the priests fault on wearing those, but it is those that make the bornos that way. very few bornoses you see today don't have either. @minasoliman...i don't think that was discussed but i'll try to remember and a…

I guess i was specifically responding to mnc_hnn comment where it was said "a wedding ceremony I guess is to declare your unity with your partner in front of society" because that is not the reason. That may be part of the process, but it's not why …
