Paschal Homily
Easter sermon by Saint John Chrysostom / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Paschal homily or sermon (also known in Greek as Hieratikon or as the Catechetical Homily) of St. John Chrysostom (died 407) is read aloud at Paschal matins, the service that begins Easter, in Eastern Orthodox and Byzantine Catholic churches. According to the tradition of the Church, no one sits during the reading of the Paschal homily.[citation needed] Portions of it are often done with the interactive participation of the congregation.
