Bright Sermon of the Resurrection.
Tone Four Saturday night, Sunday morning
The Mother of God Dogmatist: “For Your sake, the Godfather, the prophet David, proclaimed in song about You, Who has done greatness to You: the queen has appeared at Your right hand. You are the Mother, the intercessor of the life of the show, without a father from You the benevolent God will become human, so that His image, decayed by passions, will again be renewed, and the lost pea-eater will find a sheep, we will take it to the frame, bring it to the Father, and unite His will with the heavenly forces, and save “O Mother of God, peace, Christ, have great and rich mercy.” — The Prophet David, who through You, Mother of God, became the father of God (i.e., the ancestor of the Savior, since the Virgin Mary came from the line of David), magnified You and proclaimed You in song (Greek “melodikos”) (in the 44th Psalm) about You: “The Queen stood at Your right hand” (Ps. 44:10). For You were revealed by God as the intercessor of life, Who deigned to become man without a father from You, in order to renew His image (i.e., man, who was created in the image and likeness of God), which had been corrupted (lit. “decayed”) by passions, and who was lost and kidnapped in the mountains (i.e., stolen or eaten by wild predators in the mountains, where livestock was often grazed in the east), taking a sheep (i.e., a person who has fallen away from God through sins), he will bring it to the Father and to Himself, uniting it with the heavenly powers (angels), and the Virgin Mary will save the world, Christ, possessing enormous wealth of mercy.
Stichera on verse. “Lord, having ascended to the Cross, Thou hast taken our ancestral oath, and having descended into hell, Thou hast freed eternal prisoners, granting incorruptibility to the human race, for this sake, singing, we glorify Thy life-giving and saving uprising.” - Lord, by ascending to the Cross, You destroyed the curse of our ancestors (Adam and Eve), and by descending into hell, You freed those imprisoned there forever, granting incorruption to humanity, so we singly glorify Your saving uprising (Resurrection).
Sunday Troparion
“The disciples of the Lord heard the bright resurrection sermon from the angel, and rejected the condemnation of their forefathers, the apostle boasting with the verb: death has been vanquished, Christ God is risen, granting great mercy to the world.” — The bright (brilliant) sermon (message, Greek “kyrygma”) about the resurrection, the disciples of the Lord (the myrrh-bearing wife), having learned from the angel and rejecting the forefathers’ condemnation, announced to the apostles: death has been destroyed, Christ God has risen, bestowing great mercy on the world.
Canon at Matins. Irmos of the 1st canto: “Crossing the red abyss with wet feet, ancient Israel, walking on foot, defeated the power of Amalek in the desert with the cruciform hands of Moses.” — The ancient Israelites crossed the dry depths of the Red Sea and, because Moses folded his hands in a cross shape, defeated the power of the Amalekites in the desert. - This irmos recalls the battle of the Jews under the leadership of Moses with the Amalekite tribe in Rephedim (Ex. 17: 8-16), during their forty years of wandering in the desert. During this battle, Moses ascended to the top of the hill, and when he raised his hands, “Israel prevailed, and when he lowered his hands, Amalek prevailed” (Ex. 17:11). Troparion 2nd. “In the tomb carnally, in hell with the soul like God, in paradise with the thief, and on the throne you were Christ, with the Father and the Spirit, fulfilling everything indescribable.” — This troparion confesses the mystery of the omnipresence of God, the Savior’s God-manhood. The Lord Jesus Christ suffered on the cross and was buried as a Man and as God abided in eternity as the Second Person of the Holy Trinity with God the Father and the Holy Spirit and descended into hell for the liberation of all the righteous who had previously died.
Troparion of the 3rd canto: “The serpent sank its teeth filled with poison into me, but You, the Almighty Lord, crushed them with Your wounds from the nails of the crucifixion, because there is no Holy One among the saints, greater than You, Lover of Mankind.”
Irmos of the 6th canto: “I will devour Thee with a voice of praise, Lord, the Church cries out to Thee, having been cleansed of the blood of demons, for the sake of mercy the blood flowed from Thy side.” “I will offer You a sacrifice with a voice of praise, Lord,” the Church cries to You, cleansed of demonic blood (literally - blood from a wound, infected blood), by the grace of the blood flowing from Your ribs (after the death of the Savior on the Cross, one of the soldiers pierced Him with a spear and blood and water flowed from the wound).
Irmos of the 8th canto: “Daniel stretched out his hand, the gaping lions in the den: having quenched the fiery power with virtue, the zealous youths, girded with piety, crying: bless all the works of the Lord the Lord.” - In the ditch, Daniel stopped the lions' mouths with a movement of his hand, and the youths, zealots of piety, girded with virtue, extinguished the power of the fire, crying out: Bless all the works of the Lord. - Here we recall the events described in the book of the holy prophet Daniel in the third chapter.
Irmos of the 9th canto: “The uncut stone from the uncut mountain, the Virgin, the cornerstone cut off for you, Christ, the aggregator of the dispersed nature. Thus we magnify You, the Mother of God, who rejoices.” — From the indivisible mountain (i.e. from the Virgin Mary, the “uncut mountain” is a metaphor indicating the impossibility of childbearing for the Virgin), a miraculous one was separated (indicating the unmarried birth of the Savior and the cornerstone (i.e., the most important) Stone - Christ, united in His divine-human personality the previously distant (in the spiritual sense) human and divine beings. Therefore, we joyfully magnify You, Mother of God!
Sunday night, Monday morning
Irmos of the 1st song of the canon at Matins: “Three hundred strong, born of the Virgin, dispassion in the depths, flood the tripartite soul, I pray that as in the tympanum, in the mortification of the body, I will sing a victorious song.” — Tristati is a word from the Greek translation of the Bible, which was also included in its Church Slavonic translation. This word denoted teams of war chariots, consisting of three fighters: a coachman, a shooter and a shield bearer. It was these chariots that chased the Jews and were sunk by divine power at the bottom of the Red Sea (Ex. 15). In this Irmos, the events of the Jews crossing the Red Sea are only implied. The ailments of the soul are compared here with “strong tristates” - “tripartite soul” - obviously an allusion to the thought of the holy Apostle John the Theologian about the three main vices of the soul: the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life (1 John 2:16). In this irmos we call upon the “Born of the Virgin” (i.e. the Lord Jesus Christ) to drown our soul vices in the “depth of dispassion”, so that, having mortified flesh (and the lust of the flesh), as on a tympanum (musical instrument), we will sing A song to God.
Monday evening, Tuesday morning.
The repentant stichera on the Lord cried out: “My soul! Be jealous of the Canaanite woman, touch Christ and cry often: Have mercy on me, O Master! I have a child - disorderly, raging flesh. Take away from her, I pray, and having quenched her disorderly leaps, make her dead with your fear through the prayers of the Most Pure One who gave birth to You, Christ and all the saints, O Most Merciful Benefactor!
Tuesday night, Wednesday morning
At Matins, troparion of the 6th song of the canon of the Mother of God: “The field that has grown the divine ear, do not despise my soul, weakened and exhausted from hunger for divine deeds, but nourish it with the divine grace of Your Son.”
Wednesday evening, Thursday morning.
At Matins, the troparion of the 6th song of the canon to the holy apostles: “God’s chosen sheep, scattered throughout the world, through faith transformed all the brutality of wolves into the meekness of lambs.”
Thursday evening, Friday morning
At Matins, the troparion of the 8th song of the canon of martyrs: “All-red martyrs! As on a chariot you mounted on your blood, and were taken to the worldly (abodes), receiving from Christ worthy honors, “Sing to the Lord” - crying out - “and exalt them to all ages!”
Friday night, Saturday morning
At Matins the stichera on the poem: “For those who believe in You, death is a dream, because You, laid in the tomb, possessing everything, destroyed the power of death and abolished its many years of violence. We pray to You: make the dead in the joy of Your saints and in the lordship of the righteous!”
Deacon Pavel Bubnov, candidate of theology
