Pentecost is the celebration of the descent of the Holy Spirit on the Apostles (Acts 2: 1). It is celebrated on Sunday\, the fiftieth day after Easter.During the Liturgy\, after the service of the Blessed Virgin Mary\, a special service is held. The service is called in Syriac 'Syom Burke' or "kneeling". It c onsists of three parts: The first is addressed to the Father\, the second to the Son and the third to the Holy Spirit. During this service a bowl wi th pure water and a bundle of walnut leaves are placed on the first step o f the altar.Each of the three parts commences with an opening prayer by th e celebrant followed by hymns\, other prayers and readings from the Script ures. After a Litany\, a deacon cries in a loud voice chanting\, "Let us b eseech the Lord and kneel down."The celebrant then kneels before the altar and the clergy and the entire congregation do likewise. They gently touch one another's back with the tips of their fingers repeatedly alerting eac h other\, as did the disciples at the time of the descent of the Holy Spir it upon them\, to prepare themselves for the coming of the Comforter. The deacons and the people chant "Kyrie eleison" repeatedly while the celebran t recites a prayer silently. Once the celebrant is done with the silent pr ayer\, he shouts aloud "Stand up by the power of God."All the faithful sta nd up reverently in their respective places. One of the deacons holds the bowl of water and stands at the right side of the celebrant. The celebrant takes the bundle of walnut leaves from the bowl and sprinkles crosswise t he altar three times. Likewise\, he sprinkles the clergy and the deacons. He then goes down from the sanctuary and sprinkles the congregation with t he drops of water which signify the gifts of the Holy Spirit that descende d upon the disciples in the Upper Room\, encircling the congregation and r eturning to the sanctuary. While sprinkling\, the priest chants "May the H oly Spirit come and descend upon each one of you."Likewise\, the second an d third parts are performed. At the end\, the celebrant offers a Hutomo.(E xplanation of the service courtesy SOR website) Hymn for Feast of Pentecos t by St. Severus the Great of Antioch:God of all and Father\, you became k nown already in the Law and Prophets. You have explained and shown through them your only Son and Word\, and the Holy Spirit\, but not plainly\, bec ause they were not able to comprehend the revelation of one Godhead of the Trinity. As the Word and God appeared in the flesh and became a man for o ur sake without change\, he showed himself equal to you\, Father\, by the astonishing deeds which he performed. After he ascended to heaven\, he sho ws clearly to those who have become perfect the Godhead of the Spirit Para clete\, who in the form of the flames of fire descended and settled upon t he Holy Apostles. He did this in order to burn away and bring about the di sappearance of the thorns which our father Adam's transgression of the com mand once planted there. They also taught us to praise one God in three ho ly hypostases\, to whom\, bowing\, we say\, 'Praise be to you'. Please not e that after the Feast of Pentecost\, the regular twice-weekly fasting of Wednesday and Friday resumes. A Study on Wednesday and Friday Fasts of th e Syrian Orthodox Church (courtesy Hymonutho): https://bit.ly/WedFriFastTh e Holy Bible readings from the Church Lectionary:EveningSt. John 14:15-31M orningJohn 15:1-14Before Holy QurbonoExodus 19:1-11Numbers 11:16-17\, 24-2 9 Joshua 18:1-7I Samuel 10:9-12Proverbs 4:18-5:2II Kings 2:13-17Daniel 5:7 -19Ezekiel 11:17-20Isaiah 42:6-16Holy Qurbono Acts 2:1-111 Corinthians 12: 1-112 Corinthians 13:11-13St. John 15:20-16:15Service of the First Kneelin g:Old TestamentGenesis 11:1-9Judges 13:24-14:7EpistleActs 19:1-6I Corinthi ans 14:20-25GospelJohn 14:1-17Service of the Second Kneeling:Old Testament II Kings 2:14-17Joel 2:25-32EpistleActs 19:8-12I Corinthians 14:26-33Gospe lSt. John 4:13-24Service of the Third Kneeling:Old TestamentNumbers 11:16- 35I Samuel 10:9-15EpistleActs 2:1-21I Corinthians 12:1-27 GospelSt. John 1 4:25-27St. John 15:26-16:15For sermons/commentaries based on the Gospel re ading: http://www.malankaraworld.com/Library/sermons/Sermon-of-the-week_Pe ntecost.htmTone of the Day: 7Syriac prayers for Had'bshabo Shbi'oyo d'Qymt ho: https://tinyurl.com/288au5n4 Syriac service book for Hido d'Phentiqo stee from Ma'de'dono: https://tinyurl.com/2twwap9hMalayalam &\; Englis h Service books with corresponding hymns available on Qleedo+ app Malayala m Hymns on YouTube: https://goo.gl/R2ekzeManglish Service book: https://t inyurl.com/bdzem24h Pentecost Promiyon Sedro (courtesy Hymonutho): https: //bit.ly/3m1nIwXThe Feast of Pentecost in the Syriac Tradition by Dr. Sinu P.
