Apostol § 307
Prokeimenon, Tone 4
Holiness befits Thy house / for ever, O Lord!
Verse: The Lord is King, He has clothed Himself with Majesty.
Holy brethren, being partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus Christ, who was faithful to Him who appointed Him, as Moses also was faithful in all His house. For this One has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as He who built the house has more honor than the house. For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is God…
Alleluia, Tone 2
His foundation is in the Holy Mountain; the Lord loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
Verse: Glorious things are spoken of Thee, O city of God!
Communion Hymn
O Lord, Thou doth love the beauty of Thy house.
