Is it the Transfiguration? Kazan? I would think St. Isaac's would be "it" but non confirmation. Any help? ~N *This may not be true today, but in the late Soviet days (1988, when I visited the city) when the present Partriarch Alexei was the diocesan bishop in, then, Leningrad he held services in Trinity Cathedral (the one recently damaged by fire) in the Alexander Nevesky Monastery, Lavra. Then, the Kazan Cathedral was a museum and St Issac's was closed. [[User:Wsk|Wsk]] 12:16, December 3, 2006 (PST) *It appears to be Kazansky cathedral, re-open in 1998: http://www.kazansky-spb.ru *Yes, the St. Petersburg Cathedral in honor of the Kazan' icon of the Mother God is the diocesan cathedral according to the Russian "Orthodox Encyclopedia" (http://ezh.sedmitza.ru/index.html?did=64, data up to 2004, with updates since then).

If I understand correctly, one of the consequences Talk pages of this understanding is the fact that leavened bread is used in the Eucharist in the Orthodox church. Are there other consequences, results, etc. of this understanding? It seems to me that the Synoptics agree with John, but have been misinterpreted. I am writing an article on the date of the Last Supper, i.e., was it the Passover Meal (night beginning Nisan 15)or was it the night before (night beginning Nisan 14)? Apart from, or maybe along with, textual consideradions, the way the early Greek-speaking church understood the Supper must, it seems to me, be taken into consideration. Not using unleavened bread points in that direction. Are there other things? I would be interested in orientation in this general area.  Note: I am 81, Ph.D. from Vanderbilt in 1963 in Biblical Studies, and speak English, Spanish and French. I would appreciate knowing about any relevant those articles in any of these languages. Thanks for any help. James M. Beaty Hows does one use the talk page to reply to another user? Thanks.   I was recently informed so that as the Passover Meal was always to be eaten in haste; the participants always stood during the meal. However, in John 21:20 we read of how the Apostle John "leaned on his (Christ's) breast at supper". Which would fit with a "regular meal". I.e. It would be eaten while reclined. -- Fr. Panteleimon == Uncategorized Images == Hello,I was wondering why in the uncategorized picture section of OrthodoxWiki there is pictures of the Pope? He does not relate to the studies or teaching of Orthodoxy ( At least not to my knowledge ). I know that there have been talks to try and create a greater friendship with the catholics and the Pope. But I still do not think there should be a picture of him on a Orthodox site. I am only 18 and I'm still trying to understand my religion more and I think people might get the wrong impression if they see the Pope on the OrthodoxWiki site. Am I wrong to ask this? Because on a earlier post I noticed that Dcn. Andrew said "OrthodoxWiki is dedicated to Orthodox Christianity." Thanks. P.S.This is a great website and I learn a lot from it.{{unsigned|OrlandoOrthodox}} Although the Orthodox and Caholic churches are not in full Communion, there is often movement,in that direction. The biggest obstacle, to that happening is, antipapal feeling, coming from the radical wing of the Orthodox Church. This has been going on for decades. It's time to come together, and love one another, for all times.{{unsigned|Deacongene}} == When does a hierarch begin his tenure? == According to the canons of the Orthodox Church, at which point does a hierarch ascend his cathedra? That is, if he is elected by the flock of his diocese/metropolia/autonomous Church (where such elections are provided for) is he already considered to occupy his see? Or, will he assume his post only after his election is confirmed by the hierarchal superiors? Or esle, will he do so only after the enthronement ceremony (where such is provided for)? In different lists of hierarchs I have be seen different dates marking the beginning of their tenure. I thank You for Your attention and ask, if possible, to advise Church texts to confirm this point. == terminology == The term "Oriental Orthodox" is problematic, since it seems like a euphemism designed to avoid the term "Monophysite." The word "Oriental" really means "Eastern" so the term does not really distinguish the two sides of the debate. Also, the use of the word "Orthodox" implies an acceptance of the Orthodoxy of the non-Chalcedonians, which has still not been agreed upon by a consensus within the (Chalcedonian) Orthodox Church. I know that the term "Monophysite" is considered offensive by the non-Chalcedonians. Unfortunately the term "Miaphysite," coined by some to replace it, is a neologism that just doesn't work in the original Greek (would "miagamous" do as a replacement for "monogamous"?) and, in my opinion, serves to obscure the real ground of difference that still seems to separate the two sides. Since OrthodoxWiki is supposed to have a "mainstream Chalcedonian bias," wouldn't the terms "Chalcedonian" and "non-Chalcedonian" or "anti-Chalcedonian" be more appropriate? <small>—The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:Mariner|Mariner]] ([[User talk:Mariner|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Mariner|contribs]]) {{{2|}}}.</small> :Hi [[User:Mariner|Mariner]], please sign you posts with three tildes, so we can know who is talking - thanks.:In my understanding, the term "monophysite" is not just offensive, it's inaccurate."Anti-Chalcedonian" may be correct as a historical reference, but perhaps not as a theological descriptor. "Non-Chalcedonian" would probably be the preferred term in my mind. "Oriental Orthodox" is generally understood, and does not, I think, cause much confusion. It also seems to be the preferred self-designation of the non-Chalcedonian groups. I don't have a problem granting them that name here. I do not think we need to go heresy hunting. Let us set forth our Chalcedonian understanding of Christology. If they can accept what we mean by this (and WHOM we mean by this), I think we are well on the way towards reunion. We may grant that language issues and imperial politics had a role to play in the division. :If you could document statements by non-Chalcedonian bishops and theologians who would consider Chalcedonian Christology heretical, I think we'd have more to go editors working on in our conversation (and perhaps some of the non-Chalcedonian folks would like to chime in too). — [[User:FrJohn|<b>FrJohn</b>]] ([http://www.orthodoxwiki.org/User_talk:FrJohn&action=edit&section=new talk]) ==Why I am Orthodox==I made a page when anyone can write some phrases to show why he is Orthodox (what is for he more atractive in Orthodoxy), why he haven't chosen an other belief (what aspects that he didn't like it has and it is absent in our religion), or, simply, some beautiful thought from his soul, concerning the Orthodoxy. The advantage of this page is that '''there is not needing to wait a special state to write an article. Becouse each of us have such thought in mind and we have only to insert them here. This requires only a few minutes''' (If we have more complex thought, we are creating our new page!) So, the page could become an '''ode to Orthodoxy''', poem in which anyone can contribute and find something good for his soul. At the end of page there are useful links that points to sites that promotes the Orthodoxy values. The page is named Why I am Orthodox...

Besides the fact that the aim of this site is to be an Orthodox encyclopedia, you'd probbably get a much better response at an active forum. Honestly, the same few people tend to contribute a lot of the material here. [[User:Gabriela|Gabriela]] 19:04, February 19, 2007 (PST) :Individual users may post things like this (within reason) on their user pages.

Since '''Intercommunion''' is a central[[Category:OrthodoxWiki]] [[bg:Project:Трапеза]] [[el:OrthodoxWiki:Τράπεζα]] [[fr:OrthodoxWiki:La Cafétéria]] [[mk:Православна--for my point of view, ''the'' central--matter in (inter-)christian dialogue--since Eucharist is the heart of Ecclesiology, of our self-awareness as members of Christ's body;and since this site is a place not only for Orthodoxes who live among other fellow Christians, but also for they among them who strive to understand our distinctive character,i think it would be of great significance if the article dedicated to Eucharist was enriched with a section where the other Christian denomination's Theology and Practice about Eucharist will be presented.Of course that is not possible to be in a detailed and systematic manner, but it could be, at least, focused on the rationale we Orthodox deny Intercommunion with them though we do not deny other communication-relation in love with them.енциклопедија: Трпеза]] [[Userro:OrthodoxWiki:Vassilip|VassilipCafenea]]

Any information would be appreciated. ---Leonidas==
I'm thinking of working on a more comprehensive and sortable Prayer Book guide. As part of this I'd write to all of the authors/publishers and ask for permission to post a select full prayer or two; if I got no response, if I'm able to get ahold of a copy, or network with others, I'd investigate how much of a book one can include under fair use for review purposes. So I'm wondering if people like this idea, and if so if there are any strong feelings regarding what prayer or prayer(s) to include. My initial thought is the prayer usually attributed to St. Macarius the Great that includes a line, depending on the translation, like ''"Be merciful to me, a sinner devoid of any good deeds."'' or ''"God, cleanse me a sinner, for I have never done anything ultimately good in Your sight."''

== A question about I'm trying to figure out the best way to include text in both [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_Modern_English Early Modern English] and Contemporary English versions, and I've come to the conclusion that the cleanest way to do this may be to have Early Modern English as a prayer in separate language on the wiki, so all the original Greek ==MediaWiki functionality regarding translations could be utilized.

You are referring == Anyone on / want to the third apostichon of the Great Vespers for December 31: Τοῦ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ γεννηθέντος ἐν Βηθλεὲμ τῆς Ἰουδαίας, ἓξ Ἀνατολῶν ἐλθόντες Μάγοι, προσεκύνησαν Θεὸν ἐνανθρωπήσαντα καὶ τοὺς θησαυροὺς αὐτῶν προθύμως ἀνοίξαντες, δῶρα τίμια προσέφερον, δόκιμον χρυσόν, ὦς Βασιλεῖ τῶν αἰώνων, καὶ λίβανον, ὦς Θεῷ τῶν ὅλων, ὡς τριημέρω δὲ νεκρῶ, σμύρναν τῶ Ἀθανάτω, Πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, δεῦτε προσκυνήσωμεν, τῶ τεχθέντι σῶσαι τὰς ψυχὰς ἤμών. Your question is about the term δόκιμον χρυσόν. Your translation of "purest gold" isn't literally present in the Greek, where instead of καθαρότερον or καθαρότατον there is the positive adjective δόκιμον. Δόκιμον can be translated as "tested" or "tried" and in this context has the sense of "refined". Thus, "refined gold" is the best translation. Of course, refined gold is not that far removed from the "purest gold". Nevertheless, the English superlative adjective is not literally found in the Greek. I hope this helps. Leonidason a Discord server? ==

I'm currently on all 8 of the Orthodoxy-related Discord servers I've found, checking them out. '''''Does anyone else use Discord? If so, what server / username?''''' (I'm Dclark).

How would people feel about doing a call for new editors on various Orthodox fora? My thought is that the pandemic is giving some people a whole lot to do, but a lot of other people a lot of hurry up and waiting to do. I know that the minor edits I've been doing recently have helped me feel like there is more purpose to my days, and have been a welcome focus away from the news. On the other hand, I can see that, especially if worded poorly, such a call could seem callous and disrespectful. -[[User:Hi JocaDclark|Dclark]] ([[User talk:Dclark|talk]]) 19:08, March 22, It2020 (UTC):I think that's looking great over there alreadyvaluable for society and for this wiki, in its own tiny way.

Ideally the CSS for mine and unlike wikipedia, I haventhe existing facebook icon should be edited so it doesn't seen a lot of vandalism heredo this, but this is beyond my CSS capabilities.)Thank you! <small/poem>—The preceding unsigned comment was added by -[[User:Alexei KojenovDclark|Alexei KojenovDclark]] ([[User talk:Alexei KojenovDclark|talk]] ) 17:51, April 12, 2020 (UTC):Just thought I'd do a *gentle nudge* on this as I noticed the remote services page is now linked to from the front page.

:I'm not sure rel=nofollow is even useful for that. What it does do is reduce Google rank. I vote for disabling rel=nofollow everywhere possible, so consider this just a vote for disabling it on OrthodoxWiki. --[[User:Basil|Basil]] 09:55, April 20, 2007 (PDT)note about a Canadian Orthodox History Wiki ==
I stumbled across this the other day - definitely not the same as OrthodoxWiki, but interesting nonetheless:https:Sorry for the delay on this//orthodoxcanada. I agree (especially when we require login to edit), and I've disabled "nofolow" on all OrthodoxWiki sites. — ca/Main_Page[[User:FrJohnKatjuscha|<b>FrJohn</b>Katjuscha]] ([http[User talk://www.orthodoxwiki.org/User_talk:FrJohn&action=edit&section=new Katjuscha|talk]]) 03:02, November 20, 2022 (UTC)

== Two subjects: Thank youRight now I am trying to create/update the lives of the Prophets and I have created a template for a series on their lives and not the Prophetical books themselves, as that has already been created and A Correction ==done well.
First, Thank you OrthodoxWiki for your wonderful article on St. Constantine the Great! I only wish you could have included the entire icon of him from the Hagia Sophia.Second, Thank you, Leonidas, for answering my question about am having a prayer in problem with text not being able to wrap around the original Greek. However, upon further checking template no matter what tag I am sorry to say that I inadvertently misdirected you add to the Compline for December 31. Please accept my sincere apologies for that. The actual prayer that I am inquiring about is in the Propers for Great Compline of template or articles themselves, leaving quite a gap between the Nativity body of Our Lord, God text and Savior, Jesus Christ, the third "Aposticha" rendered in English as: "When the Lord Jesus was born in Bethlehem bottom of Judea, the Magi, coming from the East, adored God made man, page. I know this does not look good and unfolding their treasures, they brought precious gifts: the purest gold as I am hoping to the eternal Kingfix that. . . " My question was, "Is the term 'purest gold' found in the original Greek?"Thank you all, in advance, for any help you can offer. With sincere best wishes in Christ, Mary
==edittools==Could anyone take a look at if there are any issues in my Template:OTProphets to find where my error might be coming from? Or am I missing a tag that should be added during article editing? I primarily borrowed a suggested template from Wikipedia with some additions.
