@minamakarEh. We cannot ignore the fact that local traditions are important. But we cannot take them and generalize them for everyone to say. Shed light on them, yes... preserve them, yes. But there isn't a need to justify the need to have everyone …

@jojo_hanna. I know it sounds like him. But is it really him? This also might go with the idea that it's part of the Alexandrian rite.

Mainly because that what the manuscripts had. But if priests or clergy from the other church's are present, we do add their names to the litany.

that's in the making as soon as we are done with our remaking of the fonts.

:-) This has already been done. You are welcome to check our coptic don't page: https://copticchurch.net/coptic_fonts

The Coptic Church says take it. In fact, it was a recommendation by the Synod in its last session a couple of weeks ago:"Supporting the spread of awareness concerning each individual’s responsibility towards the entire society, and the importance of…

I don't remember, but somewhere in the middle of the confessions response. As far as i know, there isn't a coptic source.

"من كان طاهراَ فليقرب ومن كان نجساً فليخرج إلا لأن يحترق بنار اللاهوت""Who ever is pure let him approach, and who ever is defiled let him leave so he doesn't burn from the fire of the divinity." Atleast i think this is what you are taking about. But…

I don't disagree with you, but we cannot consider exceptions to be the rule. Exceptional individuals or incidents will always exists--Christianity as a whole is not so black and white... otherwise would never ever be saved due to our sin every day.

What is added to the consecrated Myron is called "khamira"... Which literary means "yeast" but it also means "the same of what you are making more of." The Myron khamira is basically the Myron consecrated from older years. Now, it's that we have the…

Huh?!

@Daniel_Kyrillos, so, what I have concluded from the application of the rules set is it really refers to ordaining monks into the priesthood rather than setting them as monk. Here are 2 things to consider:1- A monk or a nun are not "ordained" but th…

In essence, it's not about being a specific age... it's about visiting the monastery regularly. You can't just come from no where and goto a monastery and say, i want to become a monk. I shocked everyone the day i got engaged because everyone though…

Also, it was eve of Nativity and I forgot to followup on this post. I will fix it.

Hi, First, please DO NOT scrape the site. You know well that this makes it slower to anyone on the site as well. Second, the text on the site is still being worked on. It is not final. Therefore, it's not really ideal to scrape the text once (not t…

That's an interesting question. Normally, people ask if there is a minimum age for monasticism rather then a max. In general, the answer is, it depends. In Egypt, i was told different monasteries are based on different schools and thus have differen…

@ShereTheLord...That was the goal when it was established, but that was never made true...yet, they are for sure a great source. The problem with all this is there are too many local traditions that need to be considered and/or reconciled to truly h…

no comment :-)

Cantor Ibrahim Ayad is ordained a full deacon by HEM Pakhomios during the time when the throne was empty. He is a consecrated full deacon, so he can administer the Blood. He's just another source but by far the clearest and the most well know in th…

I found it. Yes, there was a mistake in the english text (duplicate from another paragraph)...that's a copy and paste mistake that's specifically in that page--it was not a mistake in translation. And, like minamakar said, the text we used is 'pot'.…

It's acceptable to recognize that God has wrath and anger... as long as that doesn't bring the person to the extreme of thinking that we worship a god of fear, rather than of love. There are many biblical verses that do say that God has wrath and an…

@JoeAskharoun. So, first, please consider that the text in there is liturgical in essence and is used in St. Mark's Jersey City. While I have been the one who is editing for many years, many have contributed and are still doing so in many ways, one …

Musical ornaments. ... Lol

hehe, @mabsoota, hazzat are actually called "ornaments"

I do like their hymns :-)

A couple of mentions in the Sunday Theotokia alone: - 7th Part: "The rod of Aaron, which blossomed, without planting or watering, is a symbol of you." (http://tasbeha.org/hymn_library/view/139), "Wherein is placed, the rod of Aaron, and the holy flo…
