before His Passion proclaimed

Raised? Truly

Christ God has Risen, granting

those in Hades Life and

Resurrection.

The Well of Life’s Source, Jesus our Saviour, went to the Well

of Jacob the Patriarch, and He

asked a Samaritan Woman for

a drink of water. When she

objected that a Jew would have

no dealings with her, the Wise

Creator diverted her with

sweet words to ask instead for

the Eternal Water. When she

had received it, she proclaimed

It to all, saying: Come and see

the Knower of things hidden;

He is God and He has come in

the Flesh to Save humanity!

A Sacred Pascha has been today shown forth to us. A New and

an All Venerable Pascha. A

Pascha, which is Christ the

Redeemer. A spotless Pascha,

a great Pascha, a Pascha of the

Faithful. A Pascha that has

opened to us the Gates of

Paradise. A Pascha that

Sanctifies all the Faithful.

As the smoke vanishes let them vanish, and as wax melts before fire.

Come from that Scene, O Women, Bearers of Good Tidings, and

say to Zion: Receive from us

the Tiding of Joy, of the

Resurrection of Christ! Exalt,

rejoice and be glad, O

Jerusalem! For thou saw

Christ the King as a

Bridegroom come forth from

the Tomb.

So shall the wicked perish at the Presence of God; and let the Righteous rejoice.

The Myrrh7bearing Women, at

deep dawn, drew near to the

Tomb of the Giver of Life, and

they found an Angel sitting

upon the stone, and he cried

to them and said: “Why do

you seek the Living among the

dead? Why do you mourn the

Incorruptible amid

corruption? Go, proclaim to

His Disciples.

This is Day that the Lord has made: we will rejoice and be glad in it.

Salvation. By virtue of this,

resurrecting mankind whom

He had first created, He Saved

our souls from Death!

Midway into the Feast, Thou came,

O Lover of humanity, and stood

in the Temple saying: You who

are fed up with thirsting, come

to Me and draw for yourselves

Water Living and welling up. I

tell you that through this you all

will surely enjoy Divine Grace,

Delight and True Life Immortal.

“They have taken away the Lord out of the Tomb, and we do not know where they have

laid Him.”

Peter therefore went out, and the other Disciple, and they went

to the Tomb.

So they both ran together, and the other Disciple outran Peter and

came to the Tomb first. And

he, stooping down and looking

in, saw the linen cloths lying

there, yet he did not go in.

Then Simon Peter came, following

him, and went into the Tomb;

and he saw the linen cloths

lying there, and the Handkerchief that had been around His Head, not lying with the linen cloths, but folded together in a place by itself.

Then the other Disciple, who came to the Tomb first, went in

also; and he saw and believed.

For as yet they did not know

the Scripture, that He must

Rise again from the dead.

Then the Disciples went away again to their own homes.
