Evlogitaria of the Resurrection (Greek)

[@rapscallionrobby]

I just heard an awful Hillsong song (“This Is How We Overcome”), and I had to play this beautiful hymn to get the horrible taste out of my mouth. I’m so glad to be converting to Orthodoxy!

[@scarespooks]

Am doing to same thing! God bless me on my journey ☦️🙏❤️

[@mysticnovelbro]

its quite a feeling, must admit. that switch from regular stuff to the soul-deep delight of ortho chants, that contrast can most certainly be felt with ease.

[@rapscallionrobby]

@Abderamus Nope, never said that. But the music certainly is an added blessing.

It would be nice to see some reference to the people who created the recording, in the description. Lovely to hear. Very spiritual and moving. Thank you for posting this.

I think I found the chanter's channel a little while back, his KZbin channel is Danos K. He's got a phenomenal voice. Here's one of his vids in case you can't find his channel through search kzbin.info/www/bejne/h5-3fqmKipx8aNE

Wow, beautiful...

[@Canonicisme]

There is another piece of text, charted at the end of sunday liturgy on the same melody, and including the word "paradiso". Could you please help me to find it? Greetings and God bless!!!

Can anyone suggest the most expeditious way to learn spoken Greek ? And/or written ? I am a 5 AP Latin student but that was in high school. I live in the NE ...New Hampshire to be exact. Converting to Greek Orthodoxy.

This is wonderful! Who is this chanter?

[@achilleuspetreas3828]

His name is Δανος (Danos). He has a channel named Danos K. He's absolutely phenomenal and I highly recommend you take a look at it. Here's a link to one of his videos kzbin.info/www/bejne/rp7QpoRmapuil6s

Does anyone know if this is a specific hymn? I mean i recognize certain passages from scripture, but it seems like it's also arranged in a poetic hymn-like way. If i wanted to try to locate a pdf version, what would I search for? Thank you.

[@max7bc]

Yes, this is a hymn! "Evlogitaria" means blessings; we are blessing/praising the Lord's Resurrection. As with most Orthodox hymnography, it is poetic, but intended to be sung, and seeped in the scripture. This hymn is typically sung at the Orthros (Matins) service, which comes before the Divine Liturgy. Here's a little more information: orthodoxwiki.org/Evlogitaria

Orthodoxy AND Death, my Aussie friend: death was conquered by death.

iditoäs... thats orthodox greek for stupid

[@gopher_ambassador420]

@@ow2750 Orthodox Greek isn't a language-its Koine, and the word isn't right either, the right word is Ιδιώτης

[@traktortarik8224]

It sounds like the guy is speaking modern Greek but the lyrics use Ancient Greek diacritics

[@LeeWard42]

That's about right. The Greek used in Orthodox services is pronounced with modern Greek pronunciation.

[@evangelosnikitopoulos]

It's the traditional pronunciation. Modern "Ancient Greek" pronunciation is a scholarly speculation that was invented in the Renaissance and only really adopted in the 18th-19th centuries. If you look at spelling mistakes in ancient papyri from the 3rd century BC, you'll see that the "modern" pronunciation was well established in Antiquity

[@dino_mt_greenwood]

@@evangelosnikitopoulos I think the OP was just commenting on the fact that the text is written in polytonic form. From what I've read, by the time this was likely composed, the pronunciation we use today was largely in effect though we could probably expect regional variations/accents/dialects.
