On Friday Eve, St Peter professes his desire to die with Christ, unaware if he has the capacity to do so. Similarly, we make promises we can't deliver, but Jesus approaches us with the comfort and encouragement of the Holy Spirit, 'the Paraclete.' Tune in as Sam Kaldas discusses how our own nature is not sufficient to fight temptation, but Jesus helps us through our weakness which is revealed to Peter after the great temptation he experienced during the persecution of Christ.

Friday Eve - The Paraclete (Samuel Kaldas)

إلهنا بلاد الحكمة أين موضعها؟ أين آثار طريقها؟ مَنْ يعبر البحر ويشتريها بذهب نقي؟ مَنْ يصعد فوق السحاب وينزلها؟ الإنسان الفاني لا يعرف طريقها، انها منسية من كل البشر، انها مختفية عن الملائكة. الذين يحصلون عليها ينالون نعمة، والذين يبغضونها يحبون الموت، انها ابهى من الشمس وكل الكواكب. انها نور الآب كائنة معه منذ الأزل.

الحكمة كائنة منذ القدم وهي تجدِّد الجميع وتدخل كل زمان إلى نفوس الأبرار. هي أثمن من اللآلئ هي أثمن من كل  كرامة وكل كرامة لا تساويها. لها المشورة والقدرة والمعرفة. بها يملك الملوك، بها يُكرَّم العظماء وبها يملك الرؤساء الأرض. الحكمة تحب الذين يحبونها وتحفظ الذين يحفظونها الذين يطلبونها يجدون نعمة.

تتمشى الحكمة  في طريق العدل، تتحرك في سبيل الحق لتهب الذين يعرفونها غنى وتملأ خزائنهم فرحاً. وهبها الله لأبينا يعقوب ثم ظهرت على الأرض ومشت كإنسان. هوذا قد بنت الحكمة لها بيتاً، أسست أعمدتها السبعة. ذبحت ذبائحها، سكبت خمرها، وأعدت مائدتها. 

بيتها هو الكنيسة الجامعة الرسولية وأعمدتها السبعة هي أسرار الله المحيية. أرسلت الحكمة عبيدها ينادون على الدوام قائلين: "مَنْ كان بسيطاً فليأت إليَّ." وتقول لناقص الفهم: "هلموا كلوا من خبزي وإشربوا من دمي. أتركوا الجهالة عنكم فتحيوا. الحكمة هي مخلصنا يسوع المسيح الذي فدانا بذبيحة جسده، وإشترانا بسفك دمه، وإختارنا لملكوته الأبدي.

 نسألك يا سيدنا أن تعطينا أن نجد فيك وحدك الحكمة. أن تقبل هذه الذبيحة من إيدينا أن تقبل منا أصوامنا وصلواتنا. لكي بدالة البنين نصرخ إليك يا أبانا السماوي قائلين: "يا أبانا الذي في السموات...

SORROWFUL! Pascha Gospel

The Gospel of the 11th Hour of Tuesday Eve-Youssef Barsoum

A song of praise from Exodus 15; Verses 1, 11, and 13 🎶🤍
Many will recognize this tune, beautifully woven into the finale song "When You Believe" from The Prince of Egypt film, as the children of Israel make their triumphant exodus from Egypt after so many years of slavery and brokenness. I wanted to share the beauty of this song of praise in English, while also savoring the words of joy and salvation as they were originally sung in their native language!

G                                                                                          
Ashira l'adonai, ki gaoh ga-ah
I will sing to the lord for he has triumphed gloriously
G                                                                                         
Ashira l'adonai, ki gaoh ga-ah
I will sing to the lord for he has triumphed gloriously
D                            Am       D                                                      
Mi chamocha ba elim adonai
Who is like You, oh Lord, among the Gods
 D                         Am      D                                                         
Mi kamocha ne-dar bakodesh
Who is like You, great in holiness
 Em                               Am             D                                            
Nachita v′chas-d′cha am zu ga-alta
In Your mercy, You lead those whom You redeemed
Em                                Am             D                            
Nachita v'chas-d′cha am zu ga-alta
In Your mercy, You lead those whom You redeemed
D                        Dsus4                                                                 
Ashira, Ashira, Ashira
I will sing, I will sing, I will sing

I Will Sing / Ashira l'Adonai (Exodus 15)

"Those, O LORD, repose them in that place; and we, too, who are sojourners in this place, keep us in/by Your faith (faith of/in You), grant us Your peace unto the end (always), and lead the way for us into Your kingdom—that in this, likewise in all, Your great, all-holy, honored, and blessed Name be glorified, praised, and exalted with Your beloved Son and the Holy Spirit. 

As He-Was and Is and Shall-Be unto generations of generations and unto the ages of all ages. Amen."

This (draft) rendition is based on the text and structure present in the earliest extant Bohairic Euchologia manuscripts: Bodl.Hunt.360 (13th cent.) and Vat.Copt.17 (AD 1288) as well as the editio typica published by Fr. Abdelmessih al-Mas'udi in 1902 (ratified by the Holy Synod in 1997).

Trinitarian Doxology of the Name in Coptic Basil Anaphora (13th Century Order)

1st Hour Prophesy-Good Friday (2011)

O Coptic bride of the Savior
and light of the land of Egypt,
with a burning passion in my heart,
I yearn for you, O Orthodox one! 

Refrain:
Beautiful is the mother of the martyrs! 
Honored is the mother of the noble(s)!
Crossing the sea of suffering, 
by her blood, she kept the faith true. 

O Mother, your love gave me life! 
Your pain is the seed of my faith!
Passing through the most bitter of times,
from them, you emerged victorious! 

Enemies have beaten and banished you,
they imprisoned you and slaughtered you,
food for the beasts they have made you, 
into every torture they pushed you!

O Mother, how faithful were you,
smitten with love for your Bridegroom!?
His secrets are hidden with you, 
and protected by His might are you! 

What is more lovely than my Mother
outcast for the Savior and His servants, 
O joy to him whose love is for you,
who enlivens the Church of his ancestors. 

O that my heart would yearn for you,
to live in the shelter of your shade, 
chasing down your enemies always
and renewing your most youthful days! 

O Mother, your marks are in the valley,  
Your love is burning in my heart,
The pledge of my devotion and love
is to serve the Church of my forefathers.

Gregorian Agios- Abouna Youaness
