Σάββατον: Τοῦ ἐν Ἁγίοις Πατρός ἡμῶν Ἰωάννου τοῦ Ἐλεήμονος, Πατριάρχου Ἀλεξανδρείας (616 -620), καί τοῦ Ὁσίου Πατρός ἡμῶν Νείλου τοῦ Ἀσκητοῦ. Τοῦ ἐν Ἁγίοις Πατρός ἡμῶν Λέοντος, Πατριάρχου Κωνσταντινουπόλεως τοῦ Στυππῆ.
Ἡ Ἀκολουθία κατά τήν ἐν τῷ Μηναίῳ τάξιν.
Εἰς τό Καί νῦν, τῶν ἑσπερίων τό α΄ Θεοτοκίον τοῦ ἤχου˙ «Ὁ διά σέ θεοπάτωρ…».
Ἀπόστολος: Τοῦ Ἱεράρχου· (Β΄ Κορ. θ΄ 6-11), ζήτει τοῦτον τῇ Κυριακῇ ιη΄ ἑβδομάδος Ἐπιστολῶν.
Εὐαγγέλιον: Ὁμοίως· (Ματθ. ε΄ 14-17), ζήτει τοῦτο τῇ 12ῃ Νοεμβρίου.
Note that if this day falls on a Sunday, the hymns to St. Nilus are only read at Apodeipnon (Απόδειπνον) and not chanted during the other services. Only those hymns of St. John are chanted from the Menaion in conjunction with the resurrectional hymns according to the TME on p. 95. However this is not supported by Fr. Papagiannis in his Σύστημα Τυπικού (p. 210 paragraph 429), he explains his reasoning in footnote 129 p. 94. In defending his purposeful divergence from the TME he references the Typikon of Regas (Τυπικόν του Γεωργίου Ρήγα - ΤΡ) explaining that it is in his opinion the TME that does not follow the tradition (τυπικήν παράδοσιν) in this instance. Real juicy stuff for us typikologists!!!
I'm interested in what you think of Fr. Papagiannis' decision to reform the Typikon of the Great Church and return to an older tradition found in the ancient typika? Let me know here in the comments section. Thanks.
