Icon Of The Mother Of God It Is Truly Meet

Icon Of The Mother Of God It Is Truly Meet

COMMEMORATED ON JULY 13

The "It is Accurately Rejoinder" Renown of the Close relative of God is in the high place of the altar of the house of worship church of the Karyes monastery on In shape Athos.

One Saturday night an Immense went to Karyes for the all-night Vigil. He not here, instructing his disciple to delay leaving downcast and read the service in their hovel. As it grew dark, the disciple heard a thud on the right to use. Since he opened the right to use, he saw an buried vicar who called himself Gabriel, and he invited him to come in. They stood prior the icon of the Close relative of God and read the service together with admiration and disappointment.

Featuring in the Ninth Ode of the Creed, the disciple began to sing "My soul magnifies the Lord..." with the Irmos of St Cosmas the Hymnographer (October 14), "Greater honorable than the Cherubim...."

The stranger sang the bordering verse, "For He has regarded the low house of His handmaiden...." So he chanted something the disciple had never heard prior, "It is true meet to bless Thee, O Theotokos, ever-blessed and utmost conservative, and the Close relative of our God..." So he continued with, "Greater honorable than the Cherubim...."

Whilst the lament was basic choral, the icon of the Theotokos shone with a delightful light. The disciple was moved by the new emulate of the lock lament, and asked his guest to outline the words down for him. Since the stranger asked for paper and ink, the disciple supposed that they did not yield any.

The stranger took a top tile and wrote the words of the lament on its death with his control. The disciple knew hence that this was no not special vicar, but the Seraph Gabriel. The angel supposed, "Vocalize in this paper, and all the Flag as well." So he finished, and the icon of the Close relative of God continued to shine light for some time next.

The Eleousa Renown of the Close relative of God, prior which the lament "It Is Accurately Rejoinder" was first choral, was transferred to the katholikon at Karyes. The tile, with the lament in black and white on it by the Seraph Gabriel, was on the go to Constantinople seeing that St Nicholas Chrysoberges (December 16) was Patriarch.

Several copies of the "It Is Accurately Rejoinder" Renown are famous in Russian churches. At the Galerna Tie up of Peterburg a church with five cupolas was built in prestige of the Benign Close relative of God, and modish it they put a grace-bearing mock-up of the "It Is Accurately Rejoinder" icon sent from Athos.
