was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and
MIAMI, FLORIDA was a compatriot of Andrew and Pe-

Bobotas Moses in the Law and the Prophets
did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph" (John 1.45).

Resurrectional Apolytikion - Tone 4
Τὸ φαιδρὸν τῆς Ἀναστάσεως κήρυγμα,

When the women Disciples of the Lord had learned from the Angel the joyful mes-
sage of the Resurrection and had rejected the ancestral decision, they cried aloud to
the Apostles triumphantly: Death has been despoiled, Christ God has risen, grant-

ing His great mercy to the world.

Χαίρει ἔχουσα ἡ Ἐκκλησία,

Having you and your three daughters as a sacred boast, the Church rejoices and
with gladness she praises you, You are to me my pride and joy, as are the most pre-

Today, the most pure temple of the Savior, the precious bridal chamber and Virgin,
the sacred treasure of God, enters the house of the Lord, bringing the grace of the

Divine Spirit. The Angels of God praise her. She is the heavenly tabernacle.

Epistle Reading

St. Paul's Letter to the Hebrews 7:26-28; 8:1-2.

Brethren, it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, blameless, unstained, sep-
arated from sinners, exalted above the heavens. He has no need, like those high priests, to
offer sacrifices daily, first for his own sins and then for those of the people; he did this once
for all when he offered up himself. Indeed, the law appoints men in their weakness as high
priests, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a Son who has been
made perfect for ever. Now the point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest,
one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, a minister in the
sanctuary and the true tent which is set up not by man but by the Lord.

Gospel Reading:

Luke 10:25-37

At that time, a lawyer stood up to put Jesus to the test, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do
to inherit eternal life?" He said to him, "What is written in the law? How do you read?" And
he answered, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,
and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself." And he
said to him, "You have answered right; do this, and you will live." But he, desiring to justify
himself, said to Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?" Jesus replied, "A man was going down
from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him, and
departed, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a priest was going down that road; and
when he saw him he passed by on the other side. So likewise a Levite, when he came to the
place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to
where he was; and when he saw him, he had compassion, and went to him and bound up his
wounds, pouring on oil and wine; then he set him on his own beast and brought him to an inn,
and took care of him. And the next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the inn-
keeper, saying, 'Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I
come back.' Which of these three, do you think, proved neighbor to the man who fell among
the robbers?" He said, "The one who showed mercy on him." And Jesus said to him, "Go
and do likewise."
