This comprehensive work represents a complete but accessible survey
of everything related to the Orthodox Church's divine services and
is helpfully illustrated throughout. The author begins with a
discussion of the nature and origin of Divine worship. He describes
the church building, the clergy who perform divine services and
their vestments, and the cycles of public worship. The services of
Great Vespers, Matins, and the Divine Liturgy are reviewed in
detail, as are festal services, and different services of need:
Baptism and Chrismation, Confession, Ordination, Matrimony,
Unction, Prayer Services, Monastic Tonsure and Burial, and the
Consecration of a Church. The reader will also find a rare
discussion of the rite of the Coronation and Anointing of the Tsar.
This manual was originally translated and printed before the
Russian Revolution. It is suitable both as an introduction to
Orthodox worship for the inquirer and as a convenient handbook for
those already familiar with the intricacies of Orthodox services.
