On Holy and Great Friday evening

The martyr priest Pavel Florensky writes about this wondrous canon:

“… When I first had a chance to read it, it somehow at once imperiously invaded the heart, and it seems that then the words of the prayer only penetrated into the consciousness:“ Thy love hurt our heart ”.

On several pages before us is a magnificent tragedy: the crucifixion of the Righteous One, the burial of God, the ineffable sorrow of the Mother, the despair of the disciples. But the limit of human sorrow and human horror is softened by the humility of the Divine and the foretold joy of the resurrection and salvation of all creation.

Is there a breast that would not be wounded by the Cry of the Mother of God? I can't imagine a soul so hard. But a man's heart, knowing neither the torments nor the joys of motherhood, not seeing in his child a part of his body, a thousandth part of that sorrow for Christ will not experience with the Most Pure Virgin, which the hearts of mothers will be compressed when reading the Lament. You, long-suffering ones, should have dedicated this Creation of Simeon Logofet, because you alone will truly experience it, suffer it in your chest and find in it a source of new joy. And someday you will go out into a disintegrating society to remind him of the torment and resurrection of our Lord. "

Lamentation of the Most Holy Theotokos
(Canon about the crucifixion of the Lord and the lamentation of the Most Holy Theotokos)

"By Thy miraculous and unknown birth, My Son, I was exalted before all mothers. But woe to Me! Now, at the sight of You on the cross, My womb is inflamed ... I see Him who was born by Me and stretch out my hands to receive Him from the cross. But no one , alas! He does not give It to Me ... "

This canon was compiled in the 10th century AD by Saint Simeon Metaphrast (Logofet). Verses are read from it after Good Friday, when the Lord had already died on the Cross. Reading takes place on Friday, during the Service.

The divine service itself is a reverent vigil before the Savior's tomb and a funeral hymn to the Lord who suffered for us, the Immortal King of glory.

The prayers of the Canon "Lamentations of the Most Holy Theotokos" are filled with grief, the grief of the Virgin Mary and the disciples of Jesus. In despair, the Mother of God finds consolation through prayer to the Lord. Jesus Christ expresses a touching concern for Her. In a few words of the Son, the Most Holy Virgin finds the satisfaction of sorrow.

Soften our wicked hearts, the Mother of God, and extinguish the misfortunes of those who hate us, and resolve any tightness of our souls. Looking at Your holy image, we are touched by Your suffering and mercy, and we kiss Your wounds, but our arrows, tormenting You, are terrified. Do not give us, Merciful Mother, in our hardheartedness and from the hardheartedness of our neighbors, perish, Thou art truly softening of evil hearts.

PRAYER

O Long-suffering Mother of God, who surpasses all the daughters of the earth in her purity, and in the multitude of sufferings you have endured on earth, accept our many painful sighs and preserve us under the roof of your mercy. We do not believe in any other refuge and warm intercession, but as if you have boldness for the one born of You, help and save us with Your prayers, so that we will reach the Kingdom of Heaven without fail, where with all the saints we will sing in the Trinity to the One God now and forever and forever centuries. Amen.

On Holy and Great Friday evening

about the tenth hour of the day (at the 4th hour of the day - A.R.) rivets. And I will bless the priest, beginning with a luminous one, on the Lord, crying out, let us put verses 6: And we sing the stichera are self-consistent.

Voice 1:

All creation is changed by fear, see Thee hanging on the Cross, Christ: the sun is darkened, and the ground of the foundation is shaken, all compassion for the One who created everything. By the will of us for our sake, the Lord enduring, glory to Thee. [Twice.]

Voice 2:

Are men of wickedness and iniquity taught in vain? Vskuy Zhivota all condemned to death? A great miracle, as if the Creator of the world is betrayed into the hands of the wicked, and the Man-lover rises on the tree, even in hell he will free the prisoners, calling: Long-suffering Lord, glory to Thee.

Today, see Thee, Immaculate Virgin, on the Cross the Word is lifted up, crying with the mother's womb, biting the heart of the mountaineer, and groaning painfully from the depths of the soul, the face with the hair is tormenting. The same and persistent beating, crying out pitifully: alas for Me, Divine Child! Alas for Me, the Light of the world! Why have you gone from my eyes, Lamb of God? The same armies of the incorporeal, containing trembling byahu, saying: Incomprehensible Lord, glory to Thee.

On the tree you see the visima, Christ, You of all the Creator and God, without seeds giving You birth crying bitterly: My Son, where is the goodness of Your sight? I can't stand seeing You are crucified unrighteously. Stretch your feet, rise up, as if I see Thy three-day Resurrection from the dead.

Voice 6:

Today the Lord of creation is facing Pilate, and the Creator of all is betrayed to the Cross, as if we bring the lamb by His will: with nails it is nailed, and it pierces the ribs, and the one who rains manna will drink with his lip, the Deliverer of the world will choke on his lips, and the Creator of all will swear at His servants. About the Lord's Humanity! About those who crucify the prayers of their Father, saying: Father, forgive them this sin: they do not lead to iniquity, that they do unrighteousness.

Glory, the voice is the same:

What a wicked host of the King of creation condemn to death, not being ashamed of the good deed, even remembering the pre-affirmed, saying to them: My people, what have I done to you? Didn't they perform miracles for Judah? Are not the resurrected dead in one word? Is it not every sickness and affliction healed? What do you pay for Mi? Vskuy not remember Me? For healing wounds I have imposed, for my stomach, mortifying, hanging on a tree, like a villain, a Benefactor: like a lawless one, a Lawgiver: like a condemned one, all the Tsar. Long-suffering Lord, glory to Thee.

And now, the voice is the same:

A terrible and glorious sacrament is now being acted upon: the intangible is being held back: it is knitted, letting Adam be free from the oath: testing hearts and womb, unrighteously tested: it closes in a dungeon, Closing the abyss: Pilate is facing, He is faced with trembling by the hand of the creature: the Creator is choking: condemned, judge the living and the dead: in the grave is the Destroyer of Hell. Whoever endures all mercifully and saved everyone from the oath, Good Lord, glory to Thee.

Entrance with the Gospel. Quiet light:

Prokemen, voice 4:

Divide My garments for myself and for My clothes, the lot is met.

Poem: God, My God, won’t Mi, did you leave Me?

Exodus reading. [Chapter 33.]

The Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as if someone had spoken to his friend and released to the regiment: but the servant Joshua, son of Nun, the youth did not come out of the tabernacle.
And the speech of Moses to the Lord: behold You speak to me, bring these people out. You did not reveal to me, whom you will follow with me.
Thou didst advertise to me: we are thee more than anyone else, and I have the grace of me. If I have found grace before You, reveal Himself to You, so I see You intelligently: as if I will find grace before You, and may I know that Your people are great in this language.
And the verb [to him is the Lord]: I myself will go before Thee, and I will rest thee.
And Moses spoke to Him: if you yourself do not go with us, do not lead me out of here. And how will it truly be known, that I have found grace from You, I and Your people, and I will go with us: and I will be glorified, and I will be glorified, and Your people, more than all the tongue, are trees on earth?
But the Lord spoke to Moses: and this word to you, the hedgehog I advertised, I will create: I have found this grace in front of Me, and we have thee more than anyone else. And the verb Moses: Show me Thy glory.
And the speech [the Lord to Moses]: I will go before you with my glory, and I will call for my name, the Lord is before you: I will have mercy on him if I am dear: and I will spare him, if I am generous.
And speaking: you cannot see My Face, unless a man sees My Face, and he will live.
And speak the Lord: this place is with Me, and stand on a stone. When My Glory passes away, I will lay thee in the cleft of a stone, and I will cover with My hand over you, until I pass by. And I will take away my hand, and then behold my back: but my face will not appear to you.

Prokemen, voice 4:
Judge, Lord, who offend me, overcome those who fight me.

Poem: Take your weapon and shield, and rise up to help me.

Job reading. [Chapter 42.]

God bless the last Iovlya, not the same old one: byahu his cattle, four ten thousand sheep, six thousand velblyuds, a husband of a thousand oxen, a thousand herd donkeys. Born to him, there are seventh sons and three daughters. And call the first ubo, Day: the second Cassius: the third, the Horn of Amalfei. And there was no likeness in babble for the daughters of Jobleigh in high heavens: but the father gave them an inheritance in their brethren. And Job had lived one hundred and seventy years after the plague: all the same two hundred and fourty years had lived. And Job his sons, and the sons of his sons, even to the fourth generation: and Job is old, and fulfill the days. But it is written that there are packs, rest for him, the Lord will raise up with them and: this is interpreted from the Syrian book. In the land of the living Ausitides, on the border of Edumea and Arabia: first of all, his name is Joab. Bring in the wife of the Arabian, give birth to a son, whose name is Ennon. Be the same father for Zareth, son of Esau's sons, for the mother of Vosorra, as if he were the fifth from Abraham.

Isaiah's prophecies reading. [Chapter 52.]

This is what the Lord says: Behold, My child will understand, and he will be exalted and glorified exceedingly. As many will be terrified of You, so Your appearance will be rendered undesirable from man, and Your glory will be from the sons of men. Thus, the tongues of the people will be amazed about Him, and the king will block their lips: as if they do not ascend about Him, they will see, and if they do not hear, they will understand. Lord, who has faith in our hearing? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? By proclaiming, like Serving before him, like a root in a thirsty land, there is no sight to Him, lower than glory: and by sight of Him, and not the name of kind, nor kindness. But His appearance is dishonorable, diminished more than all the sons of men: a man in an ulcer, and knowing to endure an illness, as if turn away from His Face, swiftly dishonorly, and not be imputed. This one bears our sins, and he hurts about us, and we are imputed to Him to be in labor, and in an ulcer from God, and in bitterness. The same was pierced for our sins, and we were tormented for our iniquity, the punishment of our peace on Him, with His wound we are healed. All like sheep go astray: man go astray from his way, and the Lord has given up His sin for our sake. And the One, who was bitter by the time, and does not open His mouth: as the sheep is led to slaughter, and as the lamb is silent before the one who shears Him, so it does not open His mouth. In His humility, His judgment will be taken, but who is His generation to confess? As if His belly would be taken up from the earth, for the sake of the iniquities of My people, He was led to death. And I will give the evil one instead of His burial, and the rich one instead of His death: for you do not create iniquity, below will be found flattery in His mouth. And the Lord wants to cleanse Him from the plague: if it is given about sin, your soul will see a long-living seed. And the Lord wants with His hand to take away the disease from His soul, to show Him the light, and to create with reason, to justify the righteous serving many, and Thou will bear their sins. For this, for the sake of thee, he will inherit many, and he will share the strong with greed: his soul was betrayed to death, and he was imputed with the wicked, and he bore the sins of many, and for their iniquity was delivered. Rejoice, non-fruitful non-fertile, exclamation and crying, non-revolting, as many empty children are more empty than those who have a husband.

When Thy is dead from the tree, Arimathea removed all Belly, with the meek and shroud of Thy, Christ, entwining, and with love, kissing Thy incorruptible body with heart and mouth. We are obsessed with fear, rejoicing, crying out to Ty: glory to Thy descent, Human-loving.

Poem: The Lord will reign, clothed with petting.

When Thou didst rely in the grave for everyone, the Deliverer of all, all mocking hell, seeing Thee, horrified, crushed faith, breaking the gates, opening the grave, reveling in the dead, then Adam, rejoicing with gratitude, cried out to Thee: glory to Thy descent, Human-loving.

Poem: For affirm the universe, it does not even move.

Glory, and now, voice 5:

For you, clothed with light, like a robe, take Joseph off the tree with Nicodemus and, seeing the dead naga unburied, we will perceive the merciful cry, weeping, saying: alas for me, Sweetest Jesus! The sun on the Cross hung in the midst of the Cross, beholding it with darkness, and the earth trembled with fear, and the church veil was torn: but now I see Thee, for the sake of my will lifting death. How will I bury Thee, my God, or with what shroud? Which rukama will I touch your incorruptible Body? Or will I sing the cue of the song to Your exodus, Generous? I magnify Thy Passion, I sing hymns and Thy burial with the Resurrection, the call: Lord, glory to Thee.

Another troparion:

An Angel appeared to the women of myrrh-bearers at the grave, crying out: the essence of peace for the dead is decent. Christ incorruptible is a stranger.

Wisdom, and release.

We sing Compline in the cells, at which we sing the canon of the crucifixion of the Lord and the lamentation of the Most Holy Theotokos. Irmos twice, troparia 4: follow the Irmos both faces together.

Lament of the Mother of God
Creation of Simeon Logofet. Voice 6.

The martyr priest Pavel Florensky writes about this wondrous canon:

“… When I first had a chance to read it, it somehow at once imperiously invaded the heart, and it seems that then the words of the prayer only penetrated into the consciousness:“ Thy love hurt our heart ”.

On several pages before us is a magnificent tragedy: the crucifixion of the Righteous One, the burial of God, the ineffable sorrow of the Mother, the despair of the disciples. But the limit of human sorrow and human horror is softened by the humility of the Divine and the foretold joy of the resurrection and salvation of all creation.

Is there a breast that would not be wounded by the Cry of the Mother of God? I can't imagine a soul so hard. But a man's heart, knowing neither the torments nor the joys of motherhood, not seeing in his child a part of his body, a thousandth part of that sorrow for Christ will not experience with the Most Pure Virgin, which the hearts of mothers will be compressed when reading the Lament. You, long-suffering ones, should have dedicated this Creation of Simeon Logofet, because you alone will truly experience it, suffer it in your chest and find in it a source of new joy. And someday you will go out into a disintegrating society to remind him of the torment and resurrection of our Lord. "
