→At the Divine Liturgy: Alleluia verses
A '''prokeimenon''' (or prokimen; plural: prokeimena) is a liturgical verse or scriptural passage sung or read before the apostolic reading. It can serve as an introduction to the theme of the particular reading on feast days. On most Sundays, the prokeimenon of the resurrection, for the tone of the week (from the [[Octoechos]]), is chanted.
==At the Divine Liturgy==
Priest: Peace be to thee that readest.
==Alleluia verses== The Prokeimenon sung immediately before the Gospel Lesson is called the Alleluia.
==At other services==
