August 6th is the Feast of the Transfiguration (Hido d-Mtalé) according to the Liturgical Calendar of the Syriac Orthodox Church. It is also known as Koodara Perunaal. The feast of the Transfiguration of our Lord is celebrated each year on August 6th which is forty days before the Feast of the Discovery of the Holy Cross (S'hkohteh da-Slibo), because the transfiguration of the Lord took place, according to one tradition, forty days before His crucifixion. The Ma`de`dono (aanduthaksa; Book of Church Festivals), does not contain a special service for this feast in contrast to the other feasts of our Lord. However, as with every Sunday there are daily offices from the Phanqitho along with special hymns for post-Gospel, kasoloki, & huthomo which reflect the Biblical tradition & theological significance of this day. Historically, the origin of this feast is related most likely to the Dedication of the churches of Mount Tabor, and was introduced into the Syriac Orthodox Liturgy in the seventh century or possibly much later. The feast commemorates the transfiguration or metamorphosis of Christ on Mount Tabor, when our Lord appeared in His divine glory before the Apostles Peter, James, & John. Conversing with Christ is the Prophet Elijah and Prophet Moses. It also represents symbolically the transformation that happens in each individual & the whole creation by assimilating the salvation accomplished by Jesus Christ.
