Thank you. I have had this prayer book for a year now. It has enriched my adventure in the Orthodox Faith. I loved learning about the gems I was unaware of before your review. Blessings!
Now it's half way through Great Lent and the current situation has us focused on prayer and remembering God. I've only just noticed this prayer book has prayers for the Hours (3rd, 6th, 9th Hours) among the Morning and Afternoon prayers.
Thanks for reviewing this -- it is very user-friendly for inquirers and those "visiting" Orthodoxy to catch a glimpse, as well as for heftier prayer practice. 😊 (Many Orthodox prayer books are very "insider-ish"!)
I agree, to an extent. Though I find this particular brand of modern English easy to read, I would say that chanting or signing it would feel odd. I would imagine these translations are geared more towards converts from newer Protestant sects, and young people who have little exposure to the more Victorian and Elizabethan styles.

Happy to be of service!
God bless. Thank you. I have this one on its way to me, a red one, but the same, I think. Hanging for it.

I cannot manage modern English. For some it’s necessary and good but traditional English has a reverence that suits.
