The week before Easter has been called by several names, from the great mysteries and various ceremonies celebrated and performed in it. The Greeks and Latins anciently called it the Great Week, the Holy Week; sometimes the Painful Week--tx is, the Week of A usterities; also, the Week of Sorrows, the days of the Cross or of sufferings. We call it the Great Week, says S. Chrysostom, on Ps. 145, not that it consists of a greater number of days, or that the days in it are longer; but on account of the great things which God has wrought in it; for on these days was the tyranny of the devil overthrown, death disarmed, sin and its curse taken away, heaven opened and made accessible, and men made fellows with the angels.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive exploration of the religious traditions and rituals surrounding Holy Week. Delving into the ancient practices of the Greek and Latin Churches, the author examines the significance of this period, known variously as the Great Week, the Holy Week, and the Week of Sorrows. The book explores how the Church celebrates the passion and death of Christ through its liturgy, and how this liturgy is designed to evoke sentiments of love, gratitude, sorrow, and a detestation for sin in the hearts of the faithful. The book delves into the meaning behind the sacred liturgy, including the Mass, the Introit, the Kyrie, the Gloria, the Collect, the Gospel, the Nicene Creed, and the Canon of the Mass. The authorââ â¢s analysis of these components of the Holy Week liturgy reveals the profound theological and spiritual insights of the Church's tradition, making this book an essential resource for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of this pivotal period in the Christian year.
