Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Guide: To the Holy Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom This little book is a guide to the liturgy of St. John Chrysostom as it is now celebrated in the Eastern Orthodox Church. It is intended to help an English worshipper to learn quickly how to worship with his Eastern brethren. For this reason it is not a complete translation of the liturgy. Many of the prayers are said inaudibly by the priest while the choir is singing. And the ordinary English translations of this liturgy utterly perplex the Englishman who reads them, because he cannot discover what the priest is saying and doing while the choir is singing. In this book enough is printed to give only an outline of what the priest says and does at such times. There are small differences in the service in different countries. The Serbian service is taken as the general basis of this book as being inter mediate between the Greek and the Russian. In Russia the anthems are rather longer. And the Greeks have adopted the more modern practice of saying the prayers for the catechumens silently. They also sing "Lord have mercy" once in places where the Slavs sing it thrice.
