The Paramony of the Nativity is prayed in the year-round tune. From the glorious Feast of the Nativity to the Feast of the Circumcision, the prayers are in they joyful tune; from 7 Tobe to 10 Tobe, the prayers are in the year-round tune; from 11 Tobe (which is the Feast of the Epiphany) to 13 Tobe (which is the Feast of Cana of Galilee), the prayers are in a joyful tune. The rest of the prayers during the month of Tobe are in the year-round tune.The Feast of the Nativity is a feast for the whole of humanity. It is the feast by which the human nature is transformed. We had sinned in this nature, and so God rejected it; but what we lost as a result of sin was transformed in this Feast to a nature that can stand once more in the presence of God. For God the Logos took flesh from the Virgin Mary through the Holy Spirit, and united Himself with this flesh hypostatically, a union which cannot even be separated by death. That is, He became one with our nature, “He took what is ours, and gave us what is His,” as we chant in the Friday Theotokia. God the Logos assumed the whole human nature, save for sin only – He assumed it, united with it, and became one with it. There is no love greater than this, and there is no joy for the whole of humanity greater than the joy we have on this day. God the Logos wore the body of our human nature, to give us a glory greater than that of the angels. By this body, the Lord of Glory was crucified and died for us, and He rose again from the dead, thus fulfilling our salvation. We who were sentenced to die because of our sins now have salvation. How great is the joy of humanity on this day, when God transformed us from slaves to sons of God by adoption. This son-ship gave us the image of Christ, our heavenly father, and we need to be zealous in maintaining this holy image. The unity of the divinity of the Logos with the humanity is an eternal unity, through which we are assured of being in the presence of God forever. Our nature will not fall away from the face of God once again.
May the blessings of this feast be with us all. Amen.

"Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God." (Colossians 3:16)

"لِتَسْكُنْ فِيكُمْ كَلِمَةُ الْمَسِيحِ بِغِنىً، وَأَنْتُمْ بِكُلِّ حِكْمَةٍ مُعَلِّمُونَ وَمُنْذِرُونَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا، بِمَزَامِيرَ وَتَسَابِيحَ وَأَغَانِيَّ رُوحِيَّةٍ، بِنِعْمَةٍ، مُتَرَنِّمِينَ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ لِلرَّبِّ." (كولوسى ٣:١٦)
