The former would be "in, or through, the multitude of your power".. Oujai

Dear Aegyptian, 1- Qen `pasai means "through THE greatness" (did you mean Qen pekasai)?. However, the exact meaning is "through the abundance"; "through the multitude", etc. 2- Literally = "She started before (them) namely Mariam". 3- "be pleased" -…

There you go: http://tasbeha.org/content/community/index.php/topic,10495.msg127597.html#msg127597 Wasn't a whole host of people going against me "unfortunately"... hehe Oujai qen `P[C

Mina, You quoted imikhail instead of TITL. The refrain for Annunciation is Iyc P,c psyri mV] af[icarx qen ]par;enoc that TITL asked, but imikhail's is fine: pimici ebolqen Viwt af[icarx qen ]par;enoc. I brought up the issue of refrains once before,…

THat's right.. well said Mina, thanks Oujai

That makes perfect sense.. so does that mean that even between the feast of circumcision and the great lent we don't say aktwnk on Sundays? Don't think that's a very common practice though, is it?

Do we say aki or aktwnk on the Sundays of Kiahk (as I gather it is aki during the month of Hatour even within the Advent fast) - and why? Oujai qen `P[C

St. Paul says something along the lines of "delivering them to a rejected conscience".. God is Almighty and knows everything before it happens as He holds the reins and knows all the rules of how the universe goes round.. but He is most merciful and…

Thanks Mina.. that makes sense Oujai qen `P[C

My understanding is that the tune changes only in fasts, including the long version.. correct me if I'm wrong.. thanks Oujai

This year Kiahk starts on 11-12... so 1st Kiahk midnight chants will be on Saturday the 10th OUjai

I can't remember where I read this, but basically a number of these melodies and hymns were composed when Copts were severely persecuted and would hide all day and all night in underground hideouts, and they used to spend days and nights singing and…

Taishoria or dishoria during advent fasting? Oujai
-
Evangelist churches have no altar as per our Coptic definition. It has been used sometimes for other faiths to come and pray. You can call it a multi-faith congregation place... not a Coptic church. Christians are not too tolerant and they have to …

Will start on the 10th.. there's no retrospective compensation for the new year's eve Oujai

You said it yourself ilovesaintmark. Nearer the end, good will prevail. We are nearing the end.. so.. maybe... Oujai qen `P[C

Well said pharoh123. Egypt has never had or will ever have a Christian president and that's why ilovesaintmark argues that we should continue to feel pessimistic and do something to help with no faith or a grain of hope.. I see where he's coming fro…

I presume we're talking about annual psalm 150. The correct way is HICS. The longer version is a stretch that is not even fitted rightly on the annual tune.. that's why you get everybody doing it their own way! Oujai

MAkes perfect sense Remenkimi.. great posts Oujai

Great posts... thanks very much for the clarification Remnkimi... Oujai qen `P[C

Dear Aegyptian, I heard this argument before. Apparently (but I am not 100% sure) twounou is rather more correct as Bohairic Coptic than ten ;ynou - however, for me personally, I don't think it matters much. One is probably more formal (i.e. the for…

Basically the Alexandrian style is the one not on morning doxology tune. I believe this is the correct teaching. Neknai on morning doxology tune however should only be used at the conclusion of such (not midnight Adam chants). Oujai qen `P[C

Yes Mina that's the one I meant. Oujai

Awol hedan of Kiahk Oujai

Dear all, Sham ennisim (will find its proper Coptic spelling later) is not a pagan festivity anymore. I can't remember the details of the story, but there was an emperor, or a king, who questioned the resurrection and how Christ can get out of a sea…

Dzheremi don't you dare talk blasphemy of the Geordies... that's the last warning you'll get.. hehe.. after which I'll join forces with you.. hehe OUJAi
-
BLack sheep is not literally translated in Arabic, but nearly to "el batta el soda".. don't usually use the plural though Oujai
-
Agreed completely dzheremi Oujai

I didn't know we're fasting today TITL.. why? Oujai
