  • [quote author=drewhalim link=topic=14408.msg164442#msg164442 date=1367946356] I agree in the case of Ti-shori it is more an alternative tune (although still slightly longer) but the principle remains that different versions of hymns should not be ne…
  • [quote author=drewhalim link=topic=14408.msg164440#msg164440 date=1367942300] As I say to me it just does not make sense. Can you imagine how long our church services would be if every hymn was chanted in its known long and shorter tune? I could not…
  • Mina, I think a few doxologies for popes would start with bekawarnetais, at least I know of pope Athanasius' now that you mention it, St Severus Doxology start that way: http://tasbeha.org/hymn_library/view/1902 Why do people here write the coptic …
  • [quote author=davidschanter link=topic=7582.msg164425#msg164425 date=1367852489] The revival comes under persecution not only by non-copts but by some leaders of the coptic church in many situations. A great source of old (real) coptic is Father S…
  • Pikeperntees is a hymn or a tune that I believe was put for or by saint Severus of Antioch...and it is the annual mohayar tune the watos one that changes . For the piouoinee I think you said it in the same tune as the morning doxology
  • [quote author=Mgabby1234 link=topic=14405.msg164394#msg164394 date=1367437140] I have tried from both an iPhone and an iPad. You only see a solid black rectangle where the player would typically be. doesn't seem to work for me. [/quote] there is pro…
  • You should be able to "play" audios here on tasbeha from an iPad or an iPhone.

  • [quote author=ophadece link=topic=14398.msg164359#msg164359 date=1367013197] Dear Mina, can't remember the source that says beweik is arranged for Sunday's only.. imikhail may shed some light if he still follows this forum. Don't confuse yourself, t…
  • [quote author=Amoussa01 link=topic=14398.msg164357#msg164357 date=1367007896] So for annual days, the madeyah are said during watos days? The tune of the madeyah is not adam in this case. This is not making any sense. "Blessed are those..." is also …
  • Watos hymns always change and follow the occasions hymns. so the madayeh are watos ones....toba lel rohma for example. I think Pi-oik is maybe considered its own tune, while being adam and at some point of time someone through of Lazarus as a uniqu…
  • "authoritative source(s)" eh ya ebny?! it's the structure of the hymn and the text that tells if a hymn (text rather) is adam or watos. actually, further thinking, the morning doxology is an adam hymns, where it is concluded with neknai o panouti al…
  • I get and agree that Pi-oik is an adam hymn...where in the world did you get to the conclusion that is should be said only on sundays?!
  • Despite what cantors say, there are BOOKS that refer to each tune.
  • Pascha prayer replaces agpeya prayers. That's why there are Matins/first, third, sixth, 9th and eleventh hour services for the day and the evening. on palm sunday, in the morning, only the 3rd and 6th agpeya hours are prayed, being a major feasts. t…

  • [quote author=copticuser20 link=topic=14383.msg164275#msg164275 date=1366587649] Does anything change concerning the rites for the Tasbeha of the last friday of lent (thursday night)? Is it a normal, weekday lenten tasbeha or do the tunes change to …

  • [quote author=Remnkemi link=topic=13898.msg163856#msg163856 date=1363709554] Is it the belt thing? [/quote] yeah. i think some also have some in the shape of a corporeal hanging down.....the Pope was dressed one.
  • [quote author=Remnkemi link=topic=13898.msg163853#msg163853 date=1363705187] I've never heard of a ballin. Does anyone have any pictures of a ballin? [/quote] The pope dresses each of the seven bishops in the video....after the sadreya.
  • [quote author=Amoussa01 link=topic=14336.msg163825#msg163825 date=1363582388] At 1 hour and 22 min (after Aretenthonti) I notice that they say the rest of the theotokia similar to the moakab and romi like in kiahk......this is strange. Why do they d…
  • [quote author=Pharoah link=topic=14336.msg163821#msg163821 date=1363562037] Thanks a lot! And does the morning doxology also have a different tune? [/quote] no
  • I read this on an arabic site, not a trustworthy source: - A copt is accused of the crime of evangelizing. - Other copts got angry, they burned the lybian flag. - Other muslims got angrier, they burned (not totally) the coptic church there. The Pop…
  • During Sundays' Eve: You may pray the entire lent psalmody with its hoos, psalies and commentaries found here: http://tasbeha.org/hymn_library/cat/82 Notes: - Alli Nos ellil can be said before the Hoos - The Hoos can be chanted/read/prayed just like…
  • Didn't God simply tell them, "If you eat from the tree you will surely die"?!
  • [quote author=guy link=topic=14329.msg163796#msg163796 date=1363423191] A while back, I heard His Holiness talk about consequences and how there has to be just. My question is what mistakes are viable for consequences. What are the consequences, and…
  • - For the entire Lent period, fasting is "vegan"=no meat of any kind, no seafood, no dairy, no eggs. - We are to fast, abstaining from food, for as long as possible during weekdays, Mon-Fri. It is not set how many hours since this affects every ind…
  • I agree about tarteep elbay'a...it's just i am trying to define what is 'authentic' to you.
  • In tarteeb elbey3a, Preparations sunday liturgy gospel response is Je Peniout.
  • [quote author=drewhalim link=topic=14321.msg163737#msg163737 date=1363019307] This is more 'Tradition' than actual ritual. There is no authentic source that says the Sunday before Lent is prayed in the Lenten tune from the gospel response onwards an…
