The Twenty-First Day of the Blessed Month of Baramhat
Baramhat 21
Commemoration of the Theotokos and Ever-Virgin
St.Mary
On this day we celebrate the commemoration
of the pure, and chaste, Virgin Mary the Theotokos, mother of the merciful,
and the compassionate One.
May her intercession be for us all. Amen.
Commemoration of the visit of Our Lord
Christ to Bethany
On this day also we commemorate
the visit of Our Lord, God, and Savior Jesus Christ with his disciples
to Bethany, which is near by Jerusalem. Lazarus, who had been dead, and
Jesus raised him, sat at the table with Him, and Martha his sister served
those who were present. Then Mary took a pound of very costly oil of spikenard,
anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair, and the Lord
praised her. He pointed out to His death by saying: "She has kept this
for the day of My burial."
(John 12:1-8)
May His prayers be with us. Amen.
Consultation of the Chief Priests to
put the righteous Lazarus to death, whom the Lord raised from the dead
On this day also was the
consultation of the chief Priests to put the righteous Lazarus to death,
whom the Lord raised from the dead. For many, because of the greatness
of this sign, had believed in Our lord Jesus christ.
To Him is the Glory forever. Amen.
