We celebrate the Feast of Annunciation (Suboro) to St. Mary twice a year\; on the 3rd Sunday after Qudosh Idto &\; on March 25th. Suboro i s considered to be one of the most important feasts of the Church\, so muc h so that the Holy Qurbono must be held on this day even if March 25th als o happens to be Good Friday!"So the holy thing which shall be born of the virgin shall be called Holy &\; the Son of God." (Luke 1:35). The event of Annunciation of Divine Conception marks the beginning of the two myste ries of Incarnation &\; Redemption. In the Syriac tradition\, St. Mary is never a passive figure\, nor is she credulous\, which is clearly eviden t in the scriptures (Luke 1:34). She is often portrayed as questioning the angel closely in order to make sure he was not a messenger of Satan disgu ised as an angel of light. (II Cor 11:14) The moment Mary yielded to God ’s Command\, the Holy Ghost came upon her absolving her of sin &\; sa nctifying her (Luke 1:35). Divinity dwelt in her womb &\; of her blood a full man was created initiating\, thus the mystery of Divine Incarnation without the seed of a man “before they came together”(Matt 1:18). The Lord had the complete human nature of his mother\, that is a real body wi th articulate human soul (Luke 23:46 Matt 26:38)\, resembling us\, yet wit hout sin (Heb. 4:15).St. Mary is perpetually virgin. She conceived as a vi rgin\, &\; brought forth her son without breaking the seal of virginity . (Matt 1:25) She remained unknown to man. In the Syriac tradition various names are given to Mary to symbolize said virginity:-The Closed Door (tha r'o dahid) -The Sealed Letter (egartho htimtho) -Unploughed Land (ar'o dlo ethpalhath) -Unpruned Vine (satho lo kashuh) -Thirsty Land (ar'o zahitho) -Gideon's Fleece (geztho d'Gideon) Source: 'The Virgin Mary in the Syrian Orthodox Church'\, 'Bride of Light' &\; 'Mariological Thought of Mar J acob of Serugh' The Holy Bible readings from the Church Lectionary:Evening :St. Luke 1:26-38Morning:St. Mark 3:31-35Before Holy Qurbono:Deuteronomy 2 6:16-27:10Judges 13:2-14Zechariah 2:10-13\, 4:1-7\, 8:3Isaiah 63:15-64:5Ho ly Qurbono:1 John 3:2-17Hebrews 6:13-7:10St. Luke 1:26-38For sermons/comme ntaries based on the Gospel reading: https://goo.gl/N0XC2rTone of the Day: 4 (8 for alternative days of the week)Syriac Prayers: \;https://tinyu rl.com/yckt7zvj \;Hymns: https://goo.gl/MsNi9E LOCATION: END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
