General Description:

The Horologion - or Book of Hours - the Divine Office of the Eastern Churches.

Newly revised and expanded edition for 2010. The Horologion is available again after an absence of many years. There is a relatively limited print run (the number of copies printed) so order your copy today.

A beautiful and fitting prayer book for clergy and laity alike, the Horologion features the entire Byzantine Divine Office in all its forms - Lenten and non-Lenten: Vespers, Compline, Mesonyktikon, Orthros, Little Hours, and Typica. Each service is presented in its complete form - no need to turn back and forth. The Priest’s prayers for Vespers and Orthros are included, as well as the music for the eight tones, common troparia, and hymns for Vespers and Orthros. All Coutourier rubrics for Priest and Deacon are printed in red. This beautiful edition features a genuine leather cover, hand sown, Bible paper, gilt edges with 7 silk ribbons.

The newly revised and expanded edition contains all the above information plus an addition of about 300 new pages containing: the troparia and kontakia for each day of the year, the Akathist and Paraklesis, additional music etc.

Editing and layour design by Rev. Michael Skrocki. Some icon drawing in the book used with the permission of Rev. Mark Melone.

Rubrics largely come from "Couturier" which refers to Fr. Abel Couturier's book "Cours de Liturgie Grecque-Melkite" published in Jerusalem in 1912, and translated by Most Rev. Nicholas J. Samra, Titular Bishop of Gerasa.

Published in English by the Melkite Greek Catholic Eparchy of the U.S., suitable for ecumenical (Greek Catholic and Orthodox) use.
