From the publisher: "Orthros for Feast Days The Holy Office of Orthros when celebrated on a weekday in commemoration of a Saint or major feast day never changes. Year after year it remains the same. Thus these two volumes numbers 2 and 3 of the projected six-volume series will be a permanent edition for yearly use. Therefore they are being published in a hard cover edition cloth bound 8-1/2 by 11 inches with large easy to read print in Greek with parallel English translations. It is in the same format as the more familiar Orthros published semi-annually. From the publisher about Vol. 2: "All the Orthros services from April to June for the Weekday celebration of Feast Days. Contained are all of the dramatic changes in rubrics and hymnology mandated during the Easter to Pentecost liturgical cycle; full and complete for every year from now until the year 2025. This makes it unique because though needed it has never before been attempted. This represents literally thousands of hours of work researching and calculating all the necessary changes. There are included for example eight 8 different ways to celebrate Orthros for the Feast Day of Saints Constantine and Helen. Other services included are: Saturday of the Souls for both Meat Fare and Pentecost; Lazarus Saturday; Ascension; and Mid-Pentecost. The other Saints' Days indicated by our Archdiocese for celebration are also included." The 2 volumes are uniformly bound in the original gilt-stamped maroon cloth. Oversize Hardcover.
