By performing His first mira- nem sa 8enex. وإﻟﻰ اﻷﺑﺪ. -cle on this occasion, He forever sanctified the Sacrament of Marriage. The set ting is also significant, since marriage in the Old Testament usually symbolized the union with God. By beginning His ministry at this wedding in Galilee (largely Gentile territory), He invites all to share in the joy of the Kingdom. Likewise, Saint Paul compares the husband-wife relationship to that of Christ and the Church (Ephesians 5:22-33). It is also on this occasion that we learn the power and role of Saint Mary as the END OF THE SERVICE HYMN intercessor and trusted advocate of the human race as she asked her Beloved Son to perform this miracle. The verse for the conclusion of service hymn is the same as the feast of the Nativity see page 71 The hymns of this occasion are in the joyful tune. If the feast lands on a Wednesday or Friday, fasting, without strict abstinence from food and drink, is maintained. In Thy birth O Christ, Thou made the cave Thy Palace and the manger Thy throne."

It is celebrated on the 6`h of Toubah (January 14 or Conclusion of the Adam Theotokias 15), eight days after the Feast of the Nativity, since Christ was circumcised on See page 42 the eighth day after His glorious birth (Luke 2:21). On this feast, we remember that the Word of God, Who gave us the Law, sub- jected Himself to the Law. Becoming man, He fulfilled it and granted us the power to fulfill the Law in a spiritual manner. Thus, according to Saint Paul, we enjoy the circumcision of the spirit and heart (Colossians 2:11), instead of the literal circumcision of the flesh, which was replaced by the Sacrament of Bap- tism in the New Testament Church. The hymns of this feast are chanted in the joyful tune. Fasting, without strict abstinence from food and drink, is maintained when this feast falls on a Wednesday or Friday. "When our Lord came and asked Saint John the Baptist (the Forerunner) to baptize Him, the Forerunner was seized with trembling and cried, saying: “How shall the lamp illuminate the Light? How shall the servant set his hand upon the Master? O Savior, Who take away the sin of the world, sanctify both me and the waters!” 82 Circumcision Feast Hymns Theophany Feast Hymns 111 ﻳﺴــﻮع اﻟــﻤــﺴــﻴــﺢ هــﻮ Jesus Christ is He; I'h's P','s 8nsaf nem voou@ 8ncof هﻮ اﻣﺲ واﻟﻴﻮم واﻟﻰ Vespers & Midnight Tasbeha yesterday, today and forever: One Iconum: 8ncof pe nem sa 8enex@ qen اﻻﺑــﺪ ﺑــﺄﻗــﻨــﻮم واﺣــﺪ -we worship and glo ﻧﺴﺠﺪ ﻟﻪ وﻧﻤﺠﺪﻩ. rify Him. ouxupostasis@ tenouwst FEASTS OF CIRCUMCISION AND THE ENTRY INTO 8mmof ten+8wou naf.
