Brethren, you are the Temples of the
Living God, as God said: I will live in
them and move among them, and I
will be their God, and they shall be
My People.
Therefore, come out from them, and
be separate from them, says the
Lord, and touch nothing unclean.
I will welcome you, and I will be a
Father to you, and you shall be My
Sons and Daughters, says the Lord

defilement of body and spirit, and
make Holiness Perfect in the Fear of
God.

human race.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit
When Thou had Truly Risen from the
Tomb, Thou ordered the Holy
Women to proclaim the
Resurrection to the Apostles, as it is
written; and Peter, coming at full
speed, stood by the Tomb and
seeing the Light in the Tomb, was
struck with amazement. And so he
both saw the grave clothes lying
there alone, without the Divine
Body, and he believed and cried out:
Glory to Thee, O Christ God,
because Thou savest us all, our
Saviour: for Thou art the Brightness
of the Father!
Now and ever, and to the ages of ages.
Amen
Let us sing Hymns in Praise of the Holy
Ark, and the Heavenly Gate and the
Shining Cloud, the All Holy
Mountain, and the Heavenly Ladder,
the Rational Paradise, and the
Redemption of Eve, the Magnificent
Treasure of the entire Universe. For
in Her and through Her for the
World was Salvation accomplished
and Forgiveness of its ancient
transgression. Let us therefore cry

the bonds of earth are loosed: Lord,
Glory to Thee!

became a Child. For He made Thy
Womb a Throne for Himself, and Thy
Body He made wider than the
Heavens. In thee, O Lady Full of
Grace, rejoices all Creation: Glory

The Myrrh-bearing Women standing at
the Tomb of the Giver of Life, were
seeking the Immortal Master among
the dead: and when they received the
Good Tidings of Joy from the Angel,
they revealed to the Apostles that
Christ had Risen, granting the world
His Great Mercy.

As they said these things, Jesus Himself
