Resurrectional Apolytikion
Grave Mode.
By means of Your
Cross, O Lord, You
abolished death. To
the robber You opened
Paradise. The
lamentation of the myrrhbearing
women You transformed,
and You
gave Your Apostles the
order to proclaim to
all that You had
risen, O Christ our God, and
granted the world Your
great mercy.
Κατέλυσας τῷ Σταυρῷ
σου τὸν
θάνατον, ἠνέῳξας
τῷ Λῃστῇ
τὸν
Παράδεισον, τῶν Μυροφόρων
τὸν θρῆνον
μετέβαλες, καὶ τοῖς
σοῖς Ἀποστόλοις
κηρύττειν ἐπέταξας·
ὅτι ἀνέστης
Χριστὲ ὁ
Θεός, παρέχων τῷ
κόσμῳ τὸ μέγα
ἔλεος.
Resurrectional
Kontakion.
No longer will death's
dominion have
power to detain mortal
men. For Christ went
down and smashed and
destroyed its powers.
Now Hades is bound,
and the Prophets in
unison exult and
declare: The Savior has
appeared to those with
faith. Come out, you
faithful, to the
Resurrection.
Οὐκέτι τὸ κράτος
τοῦ θανάτου, ἰσχύσει
κατέχειν τοὺς βροτούς·
Χριστὸς γὰρ
κατῆλθε συντρίβων,
καὶ λύων τὰς δυνάμεις
αὐτοῦ, δεσμεῖται
ὁ ᾍδης, Προφῆται
συμφώνως ἀγάλλονται.
Ἐπέστη λέγοντες
Σωτήρ, τοῖς ἐν πίστει,
ἐξέρχεσθε
οἱ πιστοὶ
εἰς τὴν
ἀνάστασιν.

Synaxis of The Three Hierarchs:
Basil the
Great, Gregory the Theologian, & John Chrysostom
This
common feast of these three teachers was instituted a little before the
year 1100, during the reign of the Emperor Alexis I Comnenus,
because of a dispute and strife that arose among the notable and virtuous
men of that time. Some of them preferred Basil, while others preferred
Gregory, and yet others preferred John Chrysostom, quarreling among
themselves over which of the three was the greatest. Furthermore, each
party, in order to distinguish itself from the others, assumed the name
of its preferred Saint; hence, they called themselves Basilians,
Gregorians, or Johannites.
Desiring to bring an end to the contention, the three Saints appeared
together to the saintly John Mavropous, a monk
who had been ordained Bishop of Euchaita, a
city of Asia Minor, they revealed to him that the glory they have at the
throne of God is equal, and told him to compose a common service for the
three of them, which he did with great skill and beauty. Saint John of Euchaita (celebrated Oct. 5) is also the composer of
the Canon to the Guardian Angel, the Protector of a Man's Life. In his
old age, he retired from his episcopal see and again took up the monastic
life in a monastery in Constantinople. He reposed during the reign of the
aforementioned Emperor Alexis Comnenus
(1081-1118).
Apolytikion
of Three Hierarchs
First
Tone
The three greatest luminaries of the Three-Sun Divinity
have illumined all of the world with the rays of doctrines divine and
true; they are the sweetly-flowing rivers of wisdom, who with godly
knowledge have watered all creation in clear and mighty streams: The
great and sacred Basil, and the Theologian, wise Gregory, together with
the renowned John, the famed Chrysostom of golden speech. Let us all who
love their divinely-wise words come together, honoring them with hymns;
for ceaselessly they offer entreaty for us to the Trinity.
Kontakion of Three Hierarchs
Second
Tone
Receive, O Lord, the Sacred Heralds who preached God, the
pinnacle of Teachers, unto the enjoyment of Your riches and rest. You
have received their labors and their suffering as being above and beyond
all fruitful offering. For You alone glorify Your Saints.
