The Canticle of Simeon

Now You shall dismiss

Your servant, O Lord,

according to Your word, in peace;

because my eyes have seen

Your salvation which You

prepared before the face

of all peoples,

a light to the revelation

of the Gentiles, and the glory

of Your people, Israel.

Troparion:

Hail, Mother of God, Virgin full of grace. From you

has shown forth the Sun of Justice, Christ our God, shining

upon those who are in darkness. Rejoice also, you just

Elder, Simeon; for you received in your arms the Redeemer

of our souls, Who has given us Resurrection.

Kontakion:

O Christ our God, through Your birth You sanctified the

Virgin's womb; and blessed, as it was proper, the hands of

Simeon. Today, You have come to bring us deliverance.

Give peace to nations at war, and strengthen our civil

authorities, for You alone love mankind.

Presentation of Christ in the Temple

The Feast of the Presentation of Our Lord in the Temple

concludes the Nativity season. Other names for the feast are

the Meeting of the Lord and the Purification of the Holy

Virgin. About 450 AD the faithful in Jerusalem began the

custom of holding lit candles during the Divine Liturgy of

this feast day. Therefore, some Western Churches refer to

this holy day as Candlemas because candles are blessed on

this day. The story of the Presentation is told in the Gospel

of Luke 2; 22-29 and Mary and Joseph were faithful Jews

who observed the Jewish customs. An important custom

was for the couple to take their first-born son to the Temple

40 days after his birth to be dedicated to God. In addition,

if the parents were wealthy, they would bring a lamb to

be offered as a sacrifice. The custom provided that if

the parents were poor, they were to offer 2 turtledoves or

pigeons for the sacrifice.

When Jesus was 40 days old, Mary and Joseph took him

to the Temple in Jerusalem to be dedicated. They were not

wealthy, so they took 2 turtledoves with them to offer as

sacrifice at the Temple. They were met by the elder

Simeon, a holy man who awaited the consolation of Israel.

It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he

should not see death before he had seen the Messiah. When

Simeon saw Jesus, he took the baby in his arms and blessed

God saying; "Now, Master, you may let your servant go in

peace, according to your word, for my eyes have seen your

salvation, which you prepared in sight of all the peoples, a

light for revelation to the Gentiles and glory for your people

Israel." These words are called the 'Canticle of Simeon' and

it is sung daily at Vespers in the Byzantine Church.

Also, in the temple was Anna the Prophetess. She had

been a widow for many years and was 84 years old. She

spent her time in the Temple worshipping, fasting and

praying. When she saw the Christ child she praised God

and spoke of him to all who were awaiting the Messiah.

Simeon told Mary and Joseph that the child Jesus would be

a sign of contradiction and a sword would pierce his

mother's heart. After Jesus was presented in the Temple,

the family returned to Galilee to the town of Nazareth.

There, Jesus grew and became strong with wisdom:

and the favor of God was upon him.

The icon of the Feast shows that the meeting takes place

inside the Temple and in front of the altar. The altar has a

scroll on it and is covered by a canopy. Mary is standing to

the left holding out her hands in a gesture of offering. She

is handing her Son to Simeon. Christ is shown as a child,

but no in swaddling clothes, but in a small dress,

giving a blessing. Simeon receives and holds Jesus with

covered hands as a sign of reverence and respect. Joseph is

behind Mary carrying the 2 turtledoves for the sacrifice.

Anna the Prophetess is also standing behind Mary and is

pointing to the Christ Child.

'The Ancient of Days becomes a child for my sake. The

most holy God becomes a child for my sake. The most

holy God is purified in order to confirm

Стрітення Господа Бога

і Спаса нашого Ісуса Христа

Празник Стрітення засновується на події з життя

нашого Спасителя, яку записав святий євангелист Лука

(2, 22-40). Закон Мойсея приписував, щоб кожна жінка

після народження дитини 40 днів не сміла входити до

храму, бо в той час вона вважалася нечистою. Ці 40

днів називалися днями очищення. Після закінчення цих

днів мати новонародженої дитини приходила до храму і

приносила жертву очищення. Багатша жінка

жертвувала однолітнє ягня на всепалення та молодого

голуба або горлицю, а вбога повинна була принести

пару голубів або пару горлиць. Пречиста Діва Марія, як

Божа Мати, не була зобов'язана до обряду очищення, бо

освятилася Христовим Різдвом, як каже кондак

празника: "Утробу Дівичу освятив Ти різдвом Твоїм".

Та все-таки вона в покорі виконує припис закону і

приносить у жертву дві горлиці.

Дух богослужби Стрітення є той самий, що й дух

Христового Різдва і Богоявлення: прославити

Богоявлення на землі, звеличити Христове божество та

віддати честь Пречистій Діві Марії, як Богоматері.

Стихири вечірні і сідални, канон та стихири утрені —

це один величний гимн слави в честь Христового

Богоявлення, у честь предвічного воплочення Бога-

Слова та в честь Пресвятої Богородиці. Ця мала

Дитина, що її сьогодні батьки принесли до храму, це

Бог предвічний, що дав закон Мойсеєві на горі Синай:

"Сьогодні Той, — співаємо на стихирах литії, — що

колись був дав закон Мойсеєві на Синаю, повинується

задля нас приписам закону, бо змилосердився над

нами... Сьогодні Симеон бере на руки Господа слави,

що його спершу Мойсей у темряві бачив, як на

Синайській горі давав йому таблиці... Творець неба й

землі сьогодні носиться на руках старцем Симеоном".

Про ікону

Іконографія цього празника зображає Дитятко Ісуса,

Богородицю, праведника Симеона, пророчицю Анну та

св. Йосифа. Дитятко Ісус зображений у білому одязі, як

у мить Його Преображення на горі Тавор, адже Він

приносить Духа всьому, що було земне. На іконі

"Стрітення" саме Старий Завіт поспішає одержати своє

власне значення в особі Ісуса. Тому священик обнімає

Дитя надзвичайно приязно, прийнявши Його з рук

Богородиці, яка простягає Його широким, сповненим

покори жестом. Праведник Симеон з великою пошаною

й почитанням тримає на руках Спасителя Ісуса,

зображений з традиційним німбом і написом ό Ων. На

більшості іконах "Стрітення" зображений престіл: і

обряди, і Письмо потребували нового духа.

За старовинним звичаєм руки Симеона покриті — з

пошани до царського маєстату Ісуса. Симеон немов

говорить до Дитятка Ісуса. Святе Євангеліє описує,

що він під натхненням Святого Духа висловив

чудний гімн: «Нині; Владико, можеш відпустити слугу

свого... бо мої очі бачили твоє (cont. on pg. 3) (prod. na stor. 3)

спасіння...»(Лк. 2, 29-32).

Богородиця та Йосиф здивовані подією (Лк. 2, 33),

бо Симеон заявив, що довкола Христа будуть вестися

великі спори, а Його мати зазнає великого болю, немов

меч прошиє її душу (Лк. 3, 34-35). Пророчиця Анна

однією з перших сповняє роль проповідування Христа

серед народу. Вона оповідає про Ісуса всім, які чекали

Спасителя, щоб визволив їх (Лк. 2, 38). Св. Йосиф

зображений із жертвоприношенням, яке було

приписане при обрізанні хлоп'ят — з двома голубами

(Лев. 12, 8). Це була жертва, приписана для вбогих.

Уся сцена зображена на тлі символічної архітектури

єрусалимського храму. Однак Бог став доступний

людям вже не тільки у храмі, а й в особі Ісуса

Христа. Тому вся увага звернена на новонародженого

Спасителя, який тепер став Божим храмом серед

людей (Мт. 12, 6; Йо. 2, 19-21).

acknowledged Him as God revealed in the flesh. The
