NOT FOR MATERIAL PROFIT 20. F E S T AL M A T I N S & L I T U R G Y H Y MN S & R E A D I N G S – P A L M S U N D AY – 1 A P R I L 2018
Palm Sunday Our Lord Jesus Christ’s Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem is celebrated by the Holy Church on Palm Sunday. By the time of Christ, Jewish Nationalism had led to the expectation of a political Messiah to deliver them from Roman oppression and rule and to re-establish King David’s earthly Kingdom. In utter Humility, our Lord Jesus emphasised the fact that He had not come to establish an earthly Kingdom by not entering the great city of Jerusalem on a horse or in a chariot like other conquering heroes but instead He was seated on a humble, untrained young donkey – a real sign of His Humility and Peace. (SEE
Onomati Kyriou!”
Plirothito
the Highest! Blessed art Thou Who comes in the Name of the Lord!”
to stoma imon eneseos Kyrie, opos animnisomen tin Doxan Sou, oti ixiosas imas ton Agion Sou metashin Mystirion. Tirison imas en to So Agiasmo, olin tin imeran meletontas tin Dikeosinin Sou. Allilouia! (3)
Let our mouth be filled with Thy Praise, O Lord, that we may sing of Thy Glory. Thou has made us worthy to partake of Thy Holy Mysteries. Keep us in Thy Holiness, that all the day long we may meditate upon Thy righteousness. Alleluia! (3)
THE BOOK OF ZECHARIAH 9:9 LXX)
Christ’s Triumphal Entrance into the Holy City declared the Establishment of the Kingdom of Almighty God. It was also a Divine Promise of our Lord Jesus Christ’s final, Glorious Entrance into the Heavenly Jerusalem together with all Faithful Believers and of His accepting the New Jerusalem as His Pure Bride. (SEE THE REVELATION OF CHRIST – THE APOCALYPSE 21:2) THE ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN CHURCH – “THE NEW JERUSALEM” - IS THE ALL PURE BRIDE OF CHRIST WHO IS THE DIVINE BRIDEGROOM
St Matthew recorded in his Holy Gospel that there was a colt as well as a donkey, which our Holy Church Fathers regarded as representing the Faithful Hebrews and the Gentiles who are brought together in the Kingdom of God. At Vespers of Palm Sunday we sing: “Thy riding upon a foal prefigured how the untamed and uninstructed Gentiles would from unbelief to Faith.” Those people who spread their clothes upon the ground before our Lord Jesus Christ, did so as a spontaneous gesture of reverence to a great King, which symbolises our own need to lay down our flesh – and indeed, our very life – for Christ. “Blessed is He Who comes in the Name of the Lord!” was a Divinely Inspired Prophecy of King David, which referred to the Messianic Expectation. [PSALM 117:25 –
St Seraphim of Platina We must never excuse ourselves. If we must – or think we must – surrender to a weakness, then we must be certain to recognise it as a weakness and a sin! We must always see and Repent our own faults. And we must always take care to never condemn our Brethren!
26]
It was recited daily for six days during the Feast of Tabernacles, and seven times on the Seventh Day of the Feast as branches were waved. “Hosanna!” means “Save, we pray!” At Vespers of Palm Sunday we sing: “Keep the Feast with the children, and holding branches in your hands, sing ‘Hosanna....’” Many Liturgical Hymns of Palm Sunday emphasise the perfect Praises of the children, who were innocent, worthy, unashamed and compelled by their Pure Love of Christ - unlike the sinister and conniving adults who would contribute to a greater or lesser degree to His betrayal and unjust, illegal arrest, trial, torture and crucifixion. We are all Called to Glorify Christ in the same joyous and spontaneous spirit of unashamed and pure Love of God! In contrast, the adults’ Praises carried earthly expectations and hidden agendas which, when left unfulfilled, led them to rebel against our Lord Jesus Christ just a few days later! AS USUAL, THE EVIL ONE ALWAYS USES OUR HUMAN WEAKNESSES AND SELFISH DESIRES AGAINST US AND AGAINST THE WILL THE GOD. IN THE CASE OF CHRIST OUR SAVIOUR, THE ENEMIES OF GOD USED THE EARTHLY DESIRES AND EXPECTATIONS OF THE PEOPLE AS AN EXCUSE FOR THEIR UNJUST AND UNLAWFUL PUNISHMENT AND EXECUTION OF CHRIST. HOWEVER, THE LORD OUR GOD, VOLUNTARILY SUBMITTED TO THEIR EVIL SCHEMES SO THAT HE COULD ENTER HADES, SMASH OPEN ITS GATES AND SET THE RIGHTEOUS FREE. FROM THAT MOMENT ONWARDS, THE RIGHTEOUS WOULD REPOSE IN PEACE IN PARADISE UNTIL JUDGEMENT DAY.

At
that time, when they drew near Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two Disciples, saying to them: “Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Loosen then and bring them to Me. And if anyone says anything to you, you shall say: “The Lord has need of them,’ and immediately he will send them.”
All
this was done so that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Prophet, saying: “Tell the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold, Thy King is coming to you, lowly, and sitting on a donkey, a colt, a foal of a donkey.”

Palm Sunday Our Lord Jesus Christ’s Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem is celebrated by the Holy Church on Palm Sunday. By the time of Christ, Jewish Nationalism had led to the expectation of a political Messiah to deliver them from Roman oppression and rule and to re-establish King David’s earthly Kingdom. In utter Humility, our Lord Jesus emphasised the fact that He had not come to establish an earthly Kingdom by not entering the great city of Jerusalem on a horse or in a chariot like other conquering heroes but instead He was seated on a humble, untrained young donkey – a real sign of His Humility and Peace. (SEE
Onomati Kyriou!”
Plirothito
the Highest! Blessed art Thou Who comes in the Name of the Lord!”
to stoma imon eneseos Kyrie, opos animnisomen tin Doxan Sou, oti ixiosas imas ton Agion Sou metashin Mystirion. Tirison imas en to So Agiasmo, olin tin imeran meletontas tin Dikeosinin Sou. Allilouia! (3)
Let our mouth be filled with Thy Praise, O Lord, that we may sing of Thy Glory. Thou has made us worthy to partake of Thy Holy Mysteries. Keep us in Thy Holiness, that all the day long we may meditate upon Thy righteousness. Alleluia! (3)
THE BOOK OF ZECHARIAH 9:9 LXX)
Christ’s Triumphal Entrance into the Holy City declared the Establishment of the Kingdom of Almighty God. It was also a Divine Promise of our Lord Jesus Christ’s final, Glorious Entrance into the Heavenly Jerusalem together with all Faithful Believers and of His accepting the New Jerusalem as His Pure Bride. (SEE THE REVELATION OF CHRIST – THE APOCALYPSE 21:2) THE ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN CHURCH – “THE NEW JERUSALEM” - IS THE ALL PURE BRIDE OF CHRIST WHO IS THE DIVINE BRIDEGROOM
St Matthew recorded in his Holy Gospel that there was a colt as well as a donkey, which our Holy Church Fathers regarded as representing the Faithful Hebrews and the Gentiles who are brought together in the Kingdom of God. At Vespers of Palm Sunday we sing: “Thy riding upon a foal prefigured how the untamed and uninstructed Gentiles would from unbelief to Faith.” Those people who spread their clothes upon the ground before our Lord Jesus Christ, did so as a spontaneous gesture of reverence to a great King, which symbolises our own need to lay down our flesh – and indeed, our very life – for Christ. “Blessed is He Who comes in the Name of the Lord!” was a Divinely Inspired Prophecy of King David, which referred to the Messianic Expectation. [PSALM 117:25 –
St Seraphim of Platina We must never excuse ourselves. If we must – or think we must – surrender to a weakness, then we must be certain to recognise it as a weakness and a sin! We must always see and Repent our own faults. And we must always take care to never condemn our Brethren!
26]
It was recited daily for six days during the Feast of Tabernacles, and seven times on the Seventh Day of the Feast as branches were waved. “Hosanna!” means “Save, we pray!” At Vespers of Palm Sunday we sing: “Keep the Feast with the children, and holding branches in your hands, sing ‘Hosanna....’” Many Liturgical Hymns of Palm Sunday emphasise the perfect Praises of the children, who were innocent, worthy, unashamed and compelled by their Pure Love of Christ - unlike the sinister and conniving adults who would contribute to a greater or lesser degree to His betrayal and unjust, illegal arrest, trial, torture and crucifixion. We are all Called to Glorify Christ in the same joyous and spontaneous spirit of unashamed and pure Love of God! In contrast, the adults’ Praises carried earthly expectations and hidden agendas which, when left unfulfilled, led them to rebel against our Lord Jesus Christ just a few days later! AS USUAL, THE EVIL ONE ALWAYS USES OUR HUMAN WEAKNESSES AND SELFISH DESIRES AGAINST US AND AGAINST THE WILL THE GOD. IN THE CASE OF CHRIST OUR SAVIOUR, THE ENEMIES OF GOD USED THE EARTHLY DESIRES AND EXPECTATIONS OF THE PEOPLE AS AN EXCUSE FOR THEIR UNJUST AND UNLAWFUL PUNISHMENT AND EXECUTION OF CHRIST. HOWEVER, THE LORD OUR GOD, VOLUNTARILY SUBMITTED TO THEIR EVIL SCHEMES SO THAT HE COULD ENTER HADES, SMASH OPEN ITS GATES AND SET THE RIGHTEOUS FREE. FROM THAT MOMENT ONWARDS, THE RIGHTEOUS WOULD REPOSE IN PEACE IN PARADISE UNTIL JUDGEMENT DAY.
