the Intercessions the Theotokos, for
us, and Save, O our Saviour, Thy
despairing people.
Rose from the dead, the Life of
all, and an Angel of Light cried out
to the Women: Cease your tears!
Give the Good Tidings to the
Apostles! Cry aloud in Hymns that
Christ the Lord has Risen, Who as
God was well-pleased to Save the
human race.
✞ Glory to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit
When Thou had Truly Risen from the
Tomb, Thou ordered the Holy
Women to proclaim the
Resurrection to the Apostles, as it is
written; and Peter, coming at full
speed, stood by the Tomb and
seeing the Light in the Tomb, was
struck with amazement. And so he
both saw the grave clothes lying
there alone, without the Divine
Body, and he believed and cried out:
Glory to Thee, O Christ God,
because Thou savest us all, our
Saviour: for Thou art the Brightness
of the Father!
Now and ever, and to the ages of ages.
Amen
Let us sing Hymns in Praise of the Holy
Ark, and the Heavenly Gate and the
Shining Cloud, the All Holy
Mountain, and the Heavenly Ladder,
the Rational Paradise, and the
Redemption of Eve, the Magnificent
Treasure of the entire Universe. For
in Her and through Her for the
World was Salvation accomplished
and Forgiveness of its ancient
transgression. Let us therefore cry
out to Her: Intercede with Thy Son
and our God that Remission of
offences be bestowed on those who
Piously Worship the All Holy Child
Whom Thou bore.

Zion: The Life of all has Risen and

The Women who brought Myrrh for the

In Thee, O Lady Full of Grace, rejoices

Temple and Rational Garden of
Paradise, the Pride of Virgins, from
Thou did God become Incarnate, and
our God Who existed before the Ages
became a Child. For He made Thy
Womb a Throne for Himself, and Thy
Body He made wider than the
Heavens. In thee, O Lady Full of
Grace, rejoices all Creation: ✞ Glory
to Thee!
The Myrrh-bearers standing at the
Tomb of the Life-Giver, were seeking
the Immortal Master among the dead
when they received the Good Tidings
of Joy from the Angel, which they
revealed to the Apostles for Christ
had Risen, granting the world His
Great Mercy.
ANTIP HO N 1 From my youth, the enemy
has beguiled me with temptations of
pleasure. But I, trusting in the Lord,
have put him to shame.
Let those who hate Zion truly become
as grass, before it is uprooted, for
the Lord shall behead them with the
cutting sword of Torment.

Thou suppressed the ill-minded and
frivolous Pyrros with the Rope of
Dogmas Thou professed, O Father,
and Thou endured persecutions and
hardships, O Renowned. Thou were
mercilessly whipped, and they cut
off Thy Sacred Tongue, and Thy
Holy hand, which to God was
perpetually lifted, and with which
Thou put in writing, exalted Dogmas
for all to read.
Blessed is the man who Fears the
Lord; he will exceedingly Delight in
His Commandments.
Thine All Sanctified tongue became like
the pen of a ready Scribe whetted by
the Spirit, O Father Maximos, and on
the surfaces of our heart in Grace it
exquisitely wrote the Tablet of
Divine Virtues and the precise
Dogmas, and the Lord’s Incarnation
in dual Natures and in one
Hypostasis and Person, as was His
Will to Appear to us.
✞ Glory to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit
When Thou showed Thyself to the
Disciples after Thy Resurrection, O
Saviour, Thou appointed Simon to
Shepherd the Sheep, for the Renewal
of Love, asking him to tend Thy
Flock. And Thou said to him: “If
you Love Me, O Peter, Feed My
Lambs! Feed My Sheep!” But he at
once enquired concerning the other
Disciple, showing his exceeding
Love. Wherefore, by the Intercession
of both, O Christ, keep Thy Flock
from corrupting wolves.
