  • during fasts we don't east any non-fasting food. how complicated is it to follow that?!
  • [quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=12616.msg148112#msg148112 date=1322601560] My suggestion:  don't have this survey. Let the obvious speak as to why this is not appropriate. [/quote] i agree

  • [quote author=Timothym link=topic=12592.msg148079#msg148079 date=1322517051] Where can I get the full Kiahk Midnight Praise Book (7&4)? I have the vespers praise one from the Sorian monastery and it is huge so I can't imagine how much bigger the…
  • [quote author=ophadece link=topic=12592.msg148076#msg148076 date=1322513945] 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 nigh…
  • The structure of the kiahk midnight praise of any day is the same as the annual days with these changes: - The tunes - Psalies that are added to hymns (psalies on each hoos, on doxologies, commemoration, theotokis) - Arabic Psalies (basically arabic…
  • [quote author=Andrew link=topic=12609.msg148065#msg148065 date=1322501609] I'm talking about my personal readings. [/quote] i don't think it matters....whatever makes you know, believe and understand.
  • Andrew...it really depends on where are you doing. In Church and liturgical services, you must stick to the rites.
  • Well......not that i disagree ....but i just think that whoever gave that opinion doesn't really know the structure of the roumi and the mou'aqab parts that are said on the saturday tasbeha. [quote author=ReturnOrthodoxy link=topic=12592.msg148043#…

  • There MUST be four 7&4 nights done. New years celebrations means nothing compared to the this rite. Also not all churches have special services  for that night.....
  • i donno wat you guys are taking about. the tarkeeb of the tune on the words, in my definition of hymns, is fine among different cantors.
  • [quote author=Remnkemi link=topic=12569.msg147916#msg147916 date=1322078148] I may be misunderstanding Arabic, so correct me if I'm wrong Mina. The exact translation from Arabic would be "As it was and it likewise will be to the generations of gener…

  • Kiahk hymns (in fact the entire rite of the Advent) begin only on the coptic month of Kiahk. What many in the first week of the fast (that is not part of kiahk) is only say the ending of the Advent fast in Amen alleluia (pimisi evol khen efiot, khag…
