    "The Orthodox? Who knows what they do?"
    As an Orthodox Christian, I laughed out loud. My parish alone has various competing English translations going on. And we use all English.

      @@kathismatastic I recall listening to a seminar from ancient faith radio, and the guy talked about how the KJV was still the best, but I believe the Greek Orthodox have now come out with an official translation, right?

    That's a useful comparison. Will you be making more videos comparing these books?

      I really should, I just haven’t been motivated and I realized I missed some things in this video (which I’ve now forgotten what they were)

    Do you know why compline and noon day prayers were introduced to the 1979?

      Speculation, but I think it was due to the ecumenical and liturgical movements of the mid 20th century. The liturgy was “recovered” in the 79’ using a form that was believed to be older, but from what a Fr. Ben Crosby has told me in his research, it turns out the liturgy wasn’t so ancient. The 2019 offers the Eucharistic liturgy of the English tradition and the liturgical version added in the 79’. This is all a tangent to say, some form of recovering older services I’d guess. This is all the ramblings of someone who doesn’t know much, so you may want to dive deeper if this doesn’t sound sufficient! I personally like having more offices, but Cranmers thought worked well too. I like having two main offices that are action packed, and optional hours on the side.

    9:45 but the more accurate Gloria Patri IS used in the Catholic liturgy of the hours. It may not have caught on outside of liturgical prayer but it’s definitely used by Catholics.

      That’s interesting, and speaks to how uncommon the LOTH is with normie Catholics it seems. Thanks for the heads up
