also in an archdiocese the pope ordains priests- not anba david. In the southern diocese and diocese of L.A... The Enthroned Bishops (Anba Serbion and Anba Youssef) Ordain the priests. just wanted to add that
the rule in our rites is that to every priest (te be ordained) there have to be 3 bishops. the Pope, being an archbishop, is equal to 3 bishops. so that's why he does. if think about, when anaba Sarapion ordains a priest, he always send for atleast anba Yossef and anba David or others maybe. so technicly they can't by themslves.
r u sure... ive seen pics where anba Sarapion is by himself ordaining, but then again it might only be pics in that moment...
