[{"type": "TEXT", "value": "Let no one fail to believe that Christ is risen, / For He revealed Himself to Mary, / and was afterwards seen by those walking to the village of Emmaus, / and again appeared to the eleven initiates of His mysteries as they lay in hiding, / sending them forth to baptize; / and He was upborne into the heavens from whence He descended, // confirming His preaching by manifold signs. Theotokion: O Sun Who hast shone forth today from the tomb, / like a bridegroom from a bridal-chamber, / making hades captive and abolishing death: / through the supplications of her who gave Thee birth / Thou hast sent down light upon us: / a light illumining our hearts and souls, / a light which directeth all to walk in the paths of Thy precepts, // in the way of peace. The Third Gospel Sticheron Tone 3: When Mary Magdalene announced the Saviors resurrection from the dead and His appearance, / the disciples, refusing to believe, were reproached for their hardness of heart; / but armed with signs and wonders, they were sent forth to preach. / Thou, O Lord, didst ascend to Thy Father, the original Light; / and they preached the word everywhere, persuading by miracles. / Wherefore, enlightened by them, we glorify Thy resurrection from the dead, // O Lord Who lovest mankind."}] |
