This is the name of the temple, which symbolizes the earth of sin.
Up to the old porch one can see a gank from the porch. Behind the old Russian ringing in this place, prayers are prayed that people repent, as if they were worthy of being worthless in the middle of the temple, to stand, who beg for mercy.

There are candlesticks placed before the holy images, where the parishioners can put candles. A lamp made of faceless candles decorates the interior of a part of the cathedral, the chandelier is called a chandelier.
There is also a small table, on which there are candles and roses, called ahead of the day or ahead of the day. This is the place of panakhidiv for the funeral services.
Traditionally, there is an image of Golgotha at the temple, which seems to be in its middle part. This is the image of a wooden Cross that looks like a crown on the face of a person, on a new image of the crucified Savior.
On the lower part of the eight-pointed Cross, on the stand, there is an image that symbolizes the skull and brushes of Adam.

On both sides of the day, the masses are rising, the choir is devolving. The tsі maidanchiks were called kliros, “kliroshans” were called sleeping priests.
The order from the kliros is placed on korogvi - icons, made on suture fabrics, attached to long holders. Like church ensigns to carry them for the hour of hellish walks.

Vіvtar vvazhayut "the sky of the earth". Vin is associated with the images of Paradise, respected by the heavenly dwelling of the Lord. In the literal translation, the vіvtar is called “the offering of the altar”. Only God's anointed ones are allowed to enter the new one.
All the days are added up with:
The iconostasis overlooking the "Heaven of the Earth" from the other parts of the cathedral, the decorations with icons, at the new gates. At the central, royal titles, only clergy are allowed to enter. Brama from pivnіchnogo and pіvdennogo side - for deacons.

Belonging to the improvement of the temple є:
As if marveling at the photo with the temples, then remember the bedroom in the future - the presence of domes, like a crowned head with a cross. For example, the construction of domes symbolizes the Holy Trinity.
For parathians, as for children, so for grown-ups, an Orthodox church is accepted as the Kingdom of Heaven. To know, as the main parts of the church are called, it is familiar to everyone, for whom the little ones do good, or the picture with signatures.
TEMPLE - DIM GOD
And at that hour, as the national spiritual intuition in rich other metacultures expressed its knowledge about the buttya zatomіsіv more importantly than my legends, Russia began to show spiritual knowledge about its heavenly prototype and twin - Russia of Heaven - my other architecture: From XI to XVIII Art. all the fires of the Russian spiritual and especially religious life with a sequence that opposes us, to develop a development, to thoroughly repeat one and the same image. Tse - an architectural ensemble, all of which is a white crystal - a white cathedral with golden domes and a stovpopodіbnoy zvіnitse, next to it - a host of little chapels and small churches, often richly barred, but may be golden-headed; far away - chambers, services and living quarters, nareshti, kіltse can zahisnyh walls with vezhami. At їх pіdnіzhzhya - the twist of the river.
Temple of God, for his old-fashioned look winds up in other futures. Zdebіl'shogo temple at its foundation dominates at the sight of the cross. It means that the temple of consecrations to the Lord crucified for us on the cross, and that the Lord Jesus Christ has sent us through the power of the devil with the cross. Often the temple is dominated by what looks like a long ship, which means that the Church, like a ship, on the image of Noah's Ark, leading us by the sea of life to a quiet harbor in the Kingdom of Heaven. Sometimes the temple is ruled like a stake, and we are promised the eternity of the Church of Christ. Maybe a temple of power and at the sight of an eight-piece, like a bi-zirka, which means that the Church, like an expensive-looking zirka, sya to this world.
The leather temple is dedicated to God, carrying it on a riddle about that sacred chi, the saint of God, for example, Trinity Church, Transfiguration, Voznesensky, Annunciation, Pokrovsky, Mikhailo-Arkhangelsky, Mykolaivsky toshcho.
Wake up the temple chimes and ends with a dome to the beast, which is the sky. The dome ends in a head in the mountains, on which a cross is placed, to the glory of the head of the Church - Jesus Christ.
Often at the temple there will be not one, but a sprat of roses, such as:
- two divisions mean two natures (God and human) in Jesus Christ;
- three divisions - three Individuals of the Holy Trinity;
- five divisions - Jesus Christ and a couple of evangelists;
- sim chapters - sim sacraments and sim ecumenical councils;
- nine roses - nine angelic ranks;
- thirteen branches - Jesus Christ and the twelve apostles, and sometimes there will be more chapters.
The shape of the bath is also possible symbolic change. The helmet-like form told about the army, about the spiritual struggle, as if the Church had been led by the forces of evil and darkness. The shape of the cibulini is a symbol of the half-light of the candle, which brings us to the words of Christ: "You are the light of the world." Vigadlivy form and bright rosemary domes on the temple of St. Basil the Blessed to talk about the beauty of Heavenly Jerusalem.
The color of the bath is also important for the symbols of the temple. Gold is a symbol of heavenly glory. The golden domes were of the head temples and temples consecrated to Christ and the twelve saints. Blue domes with mirrors crown the temples consecrated to the Mother of God, for a star tells about the birth of Christ from the Virgin Mary. Trinity churches were small green baths, more greens - the color of the Holy Spirit. Temples consecrated to saints, crowned with green or silver baths.
Above the entrance to the temple, if I entrusted it to the temple, there will be a ring, a ring, tobto vezha, where the bells will hang. The call is celebrated in order to call the believers to prayer, before the service, and in order to talk about the most important parts of the service that take place in the temple. Dzvіn in one dzvіn is called "Blagovist" (Blessed, radio call about the Divine Service). The ringing of all the bells, which expresses Christian joy, is called "chilling" at the drive of the holy tract. The ringer of calls with the drive of the sum call is called the ringer. Dzvin tells us about the future, heavenly light.
The Lord Himself gave to people in the Old Testament, through the prophet Moses, instructions, as a way to have a temple for worship; New Testament Orthodox Church of the Powers on the Old Testament. Like an old-time temple (on the back - a tabernacle) divided into three parts: the holy of holies, the sanctuary that door; so the Orthodox Christian church is divided into three parts: vіvtar, the middle part of the temple and the narthex.
That one vzagali, hіba does not oppose the sight of the Russian sanctuaries of any century, in the view of the one-dome church transferred to us by Byzantium to the empire churches of the 19th century, the contrast between the name of the filling, the shape and the zmist? Oh, tse zovsіm, zovsіm not harmony! The Russian temple of harmony, so, as long as we can see its name: a white cube made of golden helmets, or a string of a thermo-like flower, which is folded with its wooden and stone pelusts and no more resting at the eternal gaiety. Use the middle wines of harmony, even though we call another harmony. Ale mizh tsimi two harmonies - rose, mutually incomprehensible, chained the witch ...
The interior of the temple
Not to the skin, like an Orthodox church. Aje skin detail to the temple is of great significance and significance. From afar, mi Bachimo, as if to say crosses on the domes of the temple. Domes with nibi crosses cover the heavenly and earthly expanses at the holy consecrations of the world. The dome is like a half-light candle, to burn, not without reason, from long ago, our ancestors tried to build gilded crosses and domes of temples at the naivazhchi hour.
Kozhen Temple of Dedications, which is a holy one. Somebody in the temple vlastovuyut kіlka vіvtarіv. Some of them are dedications to your saint chi podії. The budinok itself will be at the temple, either at the sight of the cross (the symbol of Christ), or at the sight of the stake (the symbol of eternity), or at the sight of the eight-piece (the symbol of the expensive treasury star). The temple ends with a dome (a symbol of the sky), in which to put a head with a cross. With this, it’s like putting 1 chapter, that symbolizes Jesus Christ himself, like two divided - two natures in Christ (divine and human), like 3 - three individuals of the trinity, like 5 - Christ and Chotiri Evangelism, like 7 - with the same church sacraments . and this ecumenical councils, i.e. 9 - nine angelic orders, i.e. 13 - Christ and the twelve apostles.
The Orthodox church is divided into three parts: the vestibule, the temple itself (middle part) and vіvtar.
At the porch earlier stood those who were getting ready for the baptism and repent, timchasovo in the form of communion. Pretends in monastic churches were often victorious in the same way as refectories.
The temple of appointments itself is without middle ground for believers.
The headmost part of the temple is tse vіvtar, the holy place, that before the new one is not allowed to enter the uninitiated. Vivtar means the sky, where God lives, and the temple - the earth. The most important place at the vіvtarі is the throne - especially the consecration of the chotirikutny stіl, the embellishment of two materials: the lower one is white from the canvas and the upper one is from brocade. It is important that Christ Himself is invisibly present on the throne, and the priests can do it only. On the altar there will always be an antimension, on the altar of the Gospel, a cross, a crypt, a monstrance. what is brought to the middle.
Antimins- the head sacred object of the temple. For the consecration by the bishops of the shovkovy scarf from the image of the camp of Christ at the throne that is sewn up with a part of the relics of a saint. In the first century of Christianity, the service (liturgy) was always celebrated on the tombs of the martyrs over their relics. It is impossible to work without an antimension. It is not for nothing that the very word antimension is translated from Greek as "deputy of the throne." Sound the antimension to burn in the next board - aboton, which will guess the bandage on the head of Christ in the thongs.
Doroohoronets- tse skrinka at the look of a small church. Here, holy gifts are saved for communion of the sick. And when they reach the house for communion, the priest walks from the monstrance.
The place behind the throne was a shidnoy wall, especially to fight for the trochs of the present. gіrsk mіsce”And respect the most holy place to inspire on the vіvtarі. Here, traditionally, the great menorah and the great altar cross are stoked.
On the vіvtarі, behind the vіvtarny band (iconostasis) of the bіl pіvnіchny mura, special stіl, ranks of the altar were placed. Here they prepare bread and wine for communion. For this urochist preparation, for the hour of the rite of proskom_dії on the altar, there are: chalice - a holy cup, wine and water are poured into the yak (a symbol of the blood of Christ); diskos – a strava on a support for the reckoning bread (a symbol of the body of Christ); zіrka - two arcs, closed with a cross, to put them on a diskos and cover without sticking the particles of prosphora (zіrka is a symbol of the Bethlehemian zirka); a copy - a gostra stick for wiymannya particles from prosphora (a symbol of the write-off, which pierced Christ on the cross); nonsense - a spoon for the communion of believers; sponge for wiping vessels. Cooking bread for communion is covered with a twist. Small covers are called covers, and the largest one is called cover.
In addition, for the vvtarny reshkoda they take care of: a censer, a dikirіy (double candlestick) and a trikіrіy (three candlestick) and a rіpidi (metal stake-orala on the handles, like deacons hovering over gifts at their consecration).
Vіdokremlyuє vіvtar vіd reshti temple ikonostasis. Schopravda, deyak part of vvtarya in front of the iconostasis. Її is called salt (Greek: "Movement in the middle of the temple"), and її the middle of the salt is called pulpit (Greek: "Going down"). From the pulpit, the priest sings the most important words at the hour of the service. The pulpit is symbolically meaningful. This is the mountain, with which Christ preached; and Bethlehem's cave, de vin was born; and a stone, from which the angel told the squads about the ascension of Christ. Along the edges of the salt, the walls of the church were ruled by kliroshi - a place for conversing and reading. The very name of the clergy is similar to the name of the spivak-priests "kleroshani", that is, the names of the clergymen, the clergy (Greek: "Foal, nadil"). At the clergy themselves, set up korogvi - icons on the fabric, attached to long holders at the sight of ensigns. Їx to wear for the hour of hellish walks.
There are three doors in the iconostasis, which built the temple from the vіvtar. The middle - the largest - are called the royal gates. Through them, none, the cream of the clergy, do not pass. The cream of the doors of the tsar's gate crosses the veil, like a rule of red color. The royal gate itself is embellished with icons of the Annunciation and images of some of the Evangelists. And above them they place an icon from the images of the Last Supper.
In great cathedrals, the iconostasis is built up in five tiers, or five rows of icons. Tsі tiers pov'yazanі in єdina tіle.
The lower tier, or a row, is called a holy icon, to that in the new one there is a holy icon, that icon is holy to the saint, in honor of whom the temple is blessed. At the middle of the row, as it was supposed to be higher, there are the Royal Gates. Standing in front of the Royal Gate, we are right-handed in them the icon of the Savior Jesus Christ, the right-handed icon of the Lord. More right, chime, pivdenny doors, demonstrating the icon of the archangel. To the right behind the pivdenny doors can be buti іnshі іkoni. As a rule, the icon of the Mother of God is avenged against the Tsar's Gate, and the lionhander - other icons.
Another view at the bottom of the row may be holy, at the new one the icons of the twelve saints are stashed.
The third row is the causal row. Right-handed and left-handed in the form of Deisus - icons of saints and archangels.
The fourth row is prophetic. At the new roztashovani icons of the prophets Old Testament- Isa, Jeremiah, Daniel, David, Solomon and others.
The fifth row is the forefather. Fathers are the patriarchs of the Israeli people, like Abraham, Yakiv, Isaac, Noah.
This is the traditional attachment to the iconostasis. Ale often zustrichayutsya and іnshі, de, for example, the holiness row may be for the Deisus, or else we may not be.
In the majestic system of the Orthodox church, the heavenly forces are depicted as the Lord's feet and are placed below him along the dome or in the spaces of the drum. With whom, the Thrones are really depicted in the sight of flaming winged wheels, the Cherubim - in the sight of six-winged faces and the Archangels in the human image. In other words great temples at the piers of the drum they depict the visible bearers of divine power - the prophets. Their traditional number: David, Solomon, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Danilo.
On the windowsills of the temple there are images of the Evangelists. Some of the deputies of the evangelists (at once) place tetramorphs (some symbolic creatures). At the same time, there are two different versions of the existence of creatures to the Evangelists. Zgіdno with the prophecies of Ezekiel, the throne of Yegovi will wake up four іstot: the lion (Joan), the eagle (Mark), the man (Matthew) and the vil (Luke). For the most part, there is a spiving, proponed by Augustine the Blessed and John: the lion - Mark, the eagle - John, the human angel - Matthew, the calf - Luke.
The stepping stone for the sacral is respected in the vіvtarna wall, because the inner wall of the temple is similar. Just as the dome is the image of the heavenly church, then the vіvtarna wall is the image of the earthly church. At the top of the dome, above the top-cylindrical apse - the vault consci, there is always an image of the Mother of God, who sits on a throne, or Oranti, who stands at the sight with raised hands. Some people here portrayed Christ the Almighty. Against the backdrop of the conch, the scene of the Eucharist of the Apostles is avenged. And even lower, in one or two rows, the saints of the Christian church (Mykola the Wonderworker, Gregory the Theologian, Basil the Great, John Chrysostom and others) stand in rows.
On the walls of the temple, the gospel story is told. In the 11th-12th centuries, an obov'yazkova scheme was formed of the twelve head Christian saints, like to follow the evangelical podia. The stinks and roar in the images, commencing from the pivdenno-shidnoy line behind the year's arrow. Tse Annunciation, Nativity of Christ, Strіtennya, Khreshchennya, Resurrection of Lazarus, Transfiguration, Entry to Jerusalem, Rozp'yattya, Zbіzhzhya in Hell, Ascension, Zіshesta St. Spirit on the Apostles, Dormition of the Mother of God. In the pains of pain in the temple in the galleries and in the choirs, the plots of the Old Testament, proto-evangelical history are hung. And on the stovpah, which support the dome - the saints and martyrs. When this is especially visible, the wall is seen (mostly in the evening). Here we will place the scenes of the Last Judgment, or the Assumption of the Mother of God, or the Last Supper.
Vivtar - the most important part of the temple, inaccessible to the laity (Fig. 3.4). The Holy Place, the most important of all, is the Sacrament of the Eucharist.
Already in Ancient Greece in the masses of the community gatherings, there was a special occasion, recognized for speeches by speakers, philosophers. It was called out " bima", i meant the same word as in latin alta ara- high place, day. Named the most important part of the temple showing that Christianity was among the first centuries vіvtar sporudzhuvavsya on the maidanchik temple, which was brought to the other parts of the temple. Therefore, vіvtar, as a rule, vlastovuєtsya for one or more steps of the veil 0.12-0.15 m dermal.
Vіvtar near Orthodox churches, for a long tradition, vlastovuєtsya zі shidny side and є apse, may be in the wake or rise to the middle part of the temple. At the temples of the city, up to 300 people rule, as a rule, one day. At the temples of greater capacity for the design of the project, they can be in power in the bots of the kilka vіvtariv. As if in the temple, a sprig of vvtarivs is littered, the skin of them is consecrated to a riddle about the special honor of the saint. Todi all vіvtarі, near the head, are called adjoining or pribudov . Іsnuyut and two-overhead temples, on the skin version of some, there may be sprats inter.
Malyunok 3.4. Scheme vіvtarya
Dimensions in vіvtarya and pіdsobnіh pіsіschen with nоmu in fallow vіd functional appropriation for the temple and yogo city vіstkostі vstanovlyuyutsya zavdannya na proektuvannya. The depth of vіvtar at small, budinkovy temples and aisles is guilty of becoming less than 3.0 m, and other churches less than 4.0 m. . At Retail liturgical books, incense, candles, wine and prosphora for the next service and other items necessary for worship and other needs are saved. Through the great variety and diversity of speeches that are saved in sacristy, won't be seldom taken care of by one appointed minister. Sacred rizi are kept in special closets, books - on the police, and other items - at the drawers of tables and bedside tables. Log in before them will be organized from vvtarya; when installing the doors, there is no obov'yazkovim. At the vіvtarі, as a rule, the window opens, moreover, the central one, orientated to skhid, is often replaced by an altar rank, which is supported by a piece of light. When the window openings are placed at the upper part of the vault apse, the central window can be placed above the altar rank. Life number of vicons v_vtari symbolizes the coming:
Three vikna (or two in three: uphill and downstairs) - non-creations Trinity light of the Deity.
Three in the mountains two at the bottom - Three lightі two natures Lord Jesus Christ.
Chotiri vikna - Four Gospels.
At the center in the vіvtary may be a square throne , on whom the Sacrament of the Eucharist is committed . Throne of wood (and both marmur or metal) style, hardening on some “stovpah” (they are lower, the height of them is 98 centimeters, and behind the style is 1 meter) , for some amount of deprivation, as a rule, a round trip from the entrance to the throne to the altarpiece (Hirsky place) is not less than 0.9 m. Tsar's gates(the gate, standing at the center of the iconostasis) on the vіdstanі not less than 1.3 m Holy Dari. Vpritul to the Throne, from yoga (distant, as if marveling at the temple, side) ring out to take revenge menorah, a lamp, which is divided into this light, on which these lamps are known, which are lit during worship. Symbolize the number of lamps of these Churches, like bachelors at the Consecration, Ivan the Theologian, the same Sacraments of the Orthodox Church.
At the pivnіchno-shіdnіy part of the vіvtar, levoruch vіd the Throne (like marveling from the temple), there is an altar . Behind the callous annex altar rich in what is similar to the Throne (Fig. 3.5). We should stand before the rozmіrіv altar, yakі buvayut or however z rozmirami to the throne or deshcho lesser. Visota altar zavzhdy dorivnyu vysoti Throne. name altar the whole place in the vvtar took away the fact that the proskomidia is being celebrated on the new one, the first part of the Divine Liturgy, the bread at the sight of the prosphora and the wine in a special rite are preparing for the creation of the Sacrament of the Bloodless Sacrifice.

I’ll name a little for a long time “ Holy Throne».
Behind the Mountain, at the vvtary of the cathedrals, roundabouts can be established (Fig. 3.6). 
Enter at the vіvtar due to the organization from the middle part of the temple through the doors and the Royal Gates in the iconostasis, and the thresholds are not allowed to be controlled. Attached to the entrance at the vіvtar without intermediary call for an hour manually functionally, but it’s not necessary to look at the symbolism of the vіvtar as an image of Paradise, where they can drink more “virn”, like at the middle part of the temple.
Malyunok 3.6. Hirske Misce
Iconostasis - a special partition, with icons, to stand on it, to stand on top of it, to build the Kremlin in front of the middle part of the temple. Even in the catacomb temples of ancient Rome, they founded a grati, which would build a space in the vvtar in the middle part of the temple.

The temple (like the old Russian “Horomi”, “Khramina”) is an architectural spore (awakening), recognized for the construction of worship and religious rites.
The Christian temple is also called the church. The very word "church" sounds like Greek. Κυριακη (οικια) - (budinok) of the Lord.

Cathedral is called the head church of the monastery. If you want a mystical tradition, you may not need to strictly follow this rule. So, for example, St. Petersburg has three cathedrals: St. Isaac Cathedral, Kazansky and Smolny (not like the cathedrals of Moscow monasteries), and Holy Trinity St. Sergius Lavra has two cathedrals: the Assumption and Trinity.
The church, where the chair of the ruling bishop (archist) is known, is called the cathedral.
At the Orthodox temple, one can see the vvtarnu part, where the Throne is located, that meal is a place for those who pray. At the vіvtarnіy part of the temple, on the Throne, the sacrament of the Eucharist is celebrated.
In Pravoslavia, it is customary to name a small buddіvlya (spore) as a chapel, recognized for prayer. As a rule, the chapels are led to riddles about podії, important for the heart of a believing person. The presence of the chapel in front of the temple is due to the fact that the chapel cannot be placed on the throne and the Liturgy is not held there.
The current liturgical statute punishes the celebrating the liturgical rite at the church. Well, before the name of the temple, templum, it took hold of the people around the 4th century, earlier the pagans called their place that way, where they gathered for prayer. We, Christians, call a temple a special day dedicated to God, in which they are chosen to take away the grace of God through the sacrament of Holy Communion and other rites, for the occasion of praying to God, as a suspile character. So, just as they gather at the temple in order to become the Church of Christ, the temple is also called a "church", a word that resembles the Greek "kiryakon" which means: "the house of the Lord."
Consecration of the Cathedral of the Archangel Michael, founded in 1070. Radivilovsky Litopis
Christian churches, as special liturgical houses, began to appear among Christians as a significant world, only after the persecution of pagans from the side, then from the IV century. Ale and before that, the temples began to be accepted from the 3rd century. The Christians of the first Rusalim community saw the Old Testament temple, but for the initiation of the Eucharist the stink was chosen by the Jews “at home” (Dij 2:46). During the period of persecution of Christianity, from the side of the pagans, catacombs were the main mass of the liturgical gatherings of Christians. This was the name of the special underground, virita for the burial of the dead. Sounds like the burial of the dead at the catacombs to reach the expansions of the pre-Christian old times, both at the exit, and at the entrance. Mіstsya pokhovan, according to the Roman laws, were recognized as nedorkannym. Roman legislation allowed the same way, in the case of the foundation of funeral companions, which would not have been treated like a stench: they had the right to choose from the places of burial of their members and could have their mothers there for the administration of their cults. It dawned on me that the first Christians were widely honored with these rights, after which the main places of their liturgical gatherings, and the first temples of antiquity, were catacombs. Qi catacombs were saved dosi in different places. The greatest interest is to present to us the best preserved catacombs on the outskirts of Rome, the title of “Callista catacombs.” The whole chain of underground corridors, which are intertwined with each other, with more or less wide spaces scattered among them, niby kіmnatami, which may be called “cube”. At this labyrinth, without the help of an experienced guide, it’s easy to get lost, it’s more, because the corridors are roztashovanіno in kilka overlays, and you can go from one overhead to the other. Uzdovzh corridors in the types of bathhouses, in which they died. Cubicles were family crypts, and even more places of “crypti” were churches themselves, in which Christians performed their worship during the hours of persecution. The tomb of the martyr was restored to voni: it served as a throne, at which the Eucharist was celebrated. Zvіdsi and vede your cob resound in the newly consecrated temple of holy relics in the middle of the throne that in the antimension, without which the Divine Liturgy cannot be celebrated. On the sides of this throne, there were tombs for the bishop and presbytery. The most used catacombs are called "chapels" or "churches". It doesn’t matter for them to separate the rich warehouse parts of our present-day temple.
Having remade the Church of the New Testament, the Old Testament Temple of Rusalim, as a culprit, will take all the people to worship God in the spirit of that truth (Jv. 4:24). At Holy Letter The theme of the New Testament was known to the temple most vividly in the Gospel of Luke.
The blessing of Luke begins with the description of the iconic image that was seen in the Jerusalem temple, and itself with the description of the appearance of the Archangel Gabriel to the elder Zacharias. A hogad about the Archangel Gavriyla asotsiyt with a prophetcem Daniyla about the sissy of Tizhniv, Tobto with a number 490. Ts, pusk 490 days, they turn on 6 miytsiv until the blessed of the Divi Marshy, 950, Tobto, 3 migyv, puppy. 40 days before the Stritennya of the Lord, and in which very temple the obitovanie prophets of Christ the Messiah, the Savior of the world, will appear.
At the Gospel of St. Luke, Simeon the God-Receiver in the Jerusalem temple, sings the light "light until the enlightenment of the pagans" (Luke 2:32), that is light until the enlightenment of the peoples. There is also Anna the prophetess, the widow of 84 years, “she never entered the temple, serving God day and night with fasting and prayer” (Luke 2:37), and she showed in her charitable life a bright prototype of rich Orthodox Russian old ones, wearing good church piety on the infamous gloomy smoldering blind religious approach for the minds of the zhorst god-fighting regime.
In the Gospel of Luke, we know only one thing in the entire canon of the New Testament about the childhood of the Lord Jesus Christ. On the way, the wedding of the Evangelist Luke was held by his subject, which was seen at the temple. Saint Luke recounted that Josip and Mary quickly went to Jerusalem on the Holy Great Day and that once the 12-fold Servant Jesus was in Jerusalem. Josip and Mary on the third day “knew Yogo in the temple to sit among the teachers” (Luke 2:46).
The Divine Servant, having recited the cryptic words, vikonn with an unblemished zmist, said to them: “What was the next thing to tell Mene? Didn't you know that Men can be in what my Batkov's should be? (Luke 2:49). The Gospel of Luke ends with a description of the Ascension of Christ into heaven and the turning of the apostles to Jerusalem from the appointment of the fact that the stench “went through the temples, glorifying and blessing God” (Luke 24:53).
The theme of the temple may be continued at the Book of Diy of the Holy Apostles, as it begins with the description of the Ascension of Christ the Savior and the Enchantment of the Holy Spirit on the teachings of Christ, from an introductory note on those who “all ... believe were at once ... and that day they were alone in the temple” (Dії 2: 44 -46). The words of the book are worthy of the fact that it is worth highlighting the historical aspect of the butt of the Church of Christ. The New Testament has a temple to the heart, a visible manifestation of that concrete manifestation of the life of the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, the actual inspirations of the conciliar religious message of God's people.
You need to comprehend what the Church has risen . The nourishment of the worldly people, for which the Church is unreasonable, alien, abstract, far away real life so wine and do not enter before it. Apostle Pavlo affirms something like that, as no one else has recognized the truth in the entire history of mankind: "The Church is the body of Christ", with which he adds - "stovp and affirmation of the truth." I gave it to you, scho mi all "experienced in the part", so that the members of the body, particles, cells, one might say. Here you can already see how deep the mystery is, but it can no longer be abstract - an organism, a body, a shelter, a soul, a robot of the whole body, that order, a spivorganization of these cells. We are approaching the nourishment of the establishment to the belief in God of the worldly people and the church. The Church is not yet a legal institution community organization, ale, nasampered, tse those that the apostle Paul says are like a mysterious manifestation, the congregation of people, the Body of Christ.
A person cannot be alone. Vіn is guilty of lying to me directly, to philosophy, to glances, to a svetoglyad, and as in this hour of seeing freedom, to inner choice, it is - especially in youth - a cicava for a person, then the proof of life shows that a person cannot reach what is needed in life alone, mother like a colo, like a social coherence. In my opinion, such an individualistic worldly pidkhid to a “special” God posture by the church, it’s just a human illusion, it’s impossible. People belong to people. And that part of the people, how to believe with those that Christ is risen, and testify about it - it's the Church. “You will be my witnesses”, - like Christ to the apostles - “to wind to the ends of the earth”. Orthodox church tse meeting its own zdijsnyuy, and the hour of chasing zdiisnyuvala, and this tradition was saved by generations of people for different furnishings.
In Orthodoxy, in the church, the word is more important - є reality, є hardness. A person is constantly amazed at himself and not with his own wet eyes, he lives with his own in a life of need, but ask for help that part in his life of the grace of God, so that he will shine through all his life. And here the very authority of tradition, the thousand-year-old dosvіd of the church, is important. Dosvіd alive, dієviy i dіyuchy we have through the grace of the Holy Spirit. Axis tse gives other fruits and other results.
Internally, the rostashuvannya of the temples is signified even from a deep antiquity by the goals of Christian worship, that symbolic thought on their meanings. As if it were a sacred life, the Christian temple is guilty of satisfying them, for some wines it was appointed: in the first place, in the new maw there is a safe space for the clergy, as they worshiped, in a different way, occupied, where they stood on the virn, to pray, that already baptized Christians; And, thirdly, it’s not enough to be a special place for the deaf, who are not yet baptized, but only quiet, who are preparing to receive baptism, and quiet, who repent. It seems that, just like the Old Testament temple, there were three “holy of holies”, “sanctuary” and “door”, so the Christian temple from ancient times was divided into three parts: vіvtar, the middle part of the temple, or the upper part of the “church,” and vestibule
The most important part of the Christian church is in vіvtarem. Name vіvtar
to look like the Latin alta ara - the offering of an altar. For the sound of the ancient
Church vіvtar vіvtar vіschavsya vzhdі vіvkruzі on skhіdnіy storі і temple.
The Christians conquered the Skhid for its symbolic significance. At the descent buv paradise, on
our salvation was crushed at the gathering. At the descent, go down the speech sun, what do you give
life to everyone who lives on earth, and at the gathering the Sun of Truth, which gives
the eternal life of mankind. Skhid zavzhdi recognized as a symbol of good,
protilezhnistnost to the sunset, as if vvazhavshis a symbol of evil, the area of the unclean
spirits. The Lord Jesus Christ Himself becomes special at the gathering: “The departure of
Yomu” (Zech. 6:12; Ps. 67:34), “Departure from the heights” (Luke 1:78), and St. prophet
Malachi calls Yogo the "Sun of Truth" (4:2). Axis why Christians have prayers
zavzhdy were turned and turned to flee (Div. St. Basil the Great 90th rule).

The head office is stored in vvtarya
holy throne, in Greek "meal", as wines are called differently and according to
ecclesiastical vocabulary in our liturgical books. In the first century of Christianity in
in the underground churches of the catacombs, the tomb of the martyr served as the throne, at the request
the shape of a podovzhenny chotirikutnik was small and adjoined to the vіvtarnoї stіni. At
And in the ancient overground churches, the thrones began to rule even more square,
odnієї chi chotirhoh pіdstavakh: the stench of wood scrabbled like a splendid
table, and then they began to be made from expensive metals, and sometimes they were
thrones of stone, marmur. The throne signifies the heavenly throne of God,
to some taєmniche є The Lord Almighty Himself. 
Vin is also called
“an altar” (in Greek “fisiastirion”), more on a new
bloodless sacrifice for the world. The throne depicts itself and the throne of Christ,
for the body of Christ is laid on the new. Chotirikutna form to the throne is symbolic
I depict those that a sacrifice is being made on a new one for all the other countries of the world, that
all corners of the earth call to the savoring of the Body and Blood of Christ.
Vidpovidno to the double meaning of the throne, wine is dressed in two robes,
the lower white robe, which is called a “srachitya” (in Greek “katasarkion” “attached”) and a shroud, which was wrapped around Tilo
Savior, and the upper “indіtіyu” (from the Greek “endio” “clothes”) from the expensive
a glittering robe that depicts the glory of the throne of the Lord. At the consecration
the lower robe of the temple is wrapped around a rope (motuzkoy), which symbolizes
the kaydani of the Lord, like Vіn buv bandages, if Yogo was led to judgment before the high priests
Hanni and Caiaphe (Ivan 18:24). Verv tie around the throne so that

The most important belonging to the throne is to become an antimension (vіd
Greek "anti" "zamіst" and Latin mensa "mensa" (style, throne)), or
"deputy of the throne." In this hour, the antimension is a shovkovy board

Christianity. The first Christians of Mali sound the Eucharist on the strings

elevated temples, stinks, through rooting already sound, began to be transferred to qi
temples from the holy places of the relics of St. martyrs. Ale so like a lot of temples all

through the epistle of the bishops antimensi z sv. relics. Inheritance of one of the temples
Mali Thrones of St. relics, but not a few antimensions; other small thrones without
St. relics, ale mali antimensi. So it was in the Russian Church as soon as possible

Russian Churches, antimensi began to bow down to the thrones, consecrated
hierarchs, but still without St. relics. Z 1675 p. at the Russian Church it was started to sound
put antimensi zі St. relics at all churches, navit those consecrated by bishops.
Antimens, visions of the hierarchs of the priests, having become a visible sign of resurrection
order the priest to celebrate the Divine Liturgy, by going to the order of the bishop,
having seen the antimension.
Antimens lie on the throne, folded four times.

The pulpit is symbolically meaningful. This is the mountain, with which Christ preached; and Bethlehem's cave, de vin was born; and a stone, from which the angel told the squads about the ascension of Christ. Along the edges of the salt, the walls of the temple were ruled klirosi- a place for conversations and readings.
