| − | In Orthodox Tradition, the '''homily''', or sermon, is an essential part of the [[Divine Liturgy|Eucharistic Liturgy]] and takes part in the liturgy's general [[sacrament]]al character.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Following the proclamation of the Word of God through the words of the Holy [[Gospel]], a liturgical homily is preached. The homily is typically given by the ranking celebrant himself, but he may entrust it to a concelebrating [[priest]] or to a [[deacon]], but never to a [[Laity|lay person]]. When a [[bishop]] is serving, the homily is said at the end of the service.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The homily normally proclaims, and explains, the significance of the readings received at the particular liturgy, or sometimes the [[Feast day]], or [[Saint]]'s Day it might be.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Some sermons have become part of the [[Holy Tradition]] of the [[Ecclesiology|Church]] such as the [[Paschal Homily]] of St. [[John Chrysostom]] read at the end of [[Orthros|Matins]] at [[Pascha]].
