Another possibility, there are some slight variations between Russian (OCA, ROCOR) practice and the practice of more Byzantine oriented archdioceses (like the Greeks and Antiochians). Then there are also different translations of the Divine Liturgy into English as well.<BR/><BR/>-DougAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041549.post-1125433069065420322005-08-30T15:17:00.000-05:002005-08-30T15:17:00.000-05:00I guess that could be it, but this book was very g...I guess that could be it, but this book was very good about adressing each section with a "Deacon stands in front of the icon and says:" or "The priest exits the royal doors and prays:" kind of thing.

I'm going to try to follow along better next week and then email the priest if I'm not able to keep up again.Nathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09476174265551740950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041549.post-1125333504712841602005-08-29T11:38:00.000-05:002005-08-29T11:38:00.000-05:00It would seem strange if they were using an abbrev...It would seem strange if they were using an abbreviate form of the Liturgy. There are some parts of the Liturgy that are prayed by the priest quietly while the congregation is singing or praying other things. The texts of all those silent prayers will show up in a Liturgy book. Otherwise, I dunno.<BR/><BR/>-DougAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
