Ἐσκύλευσας τὸν Ἅδην, μὴ πειρασθεὶς ὑπ αὐτοῦ ὑπήντησας τῇ Παρθένῳ, δωρούμενος τὴν ζωήν. Ὁ ἀναστὰς ἐκ τῶν νεκρῶν, Κύριε δόξα σοι. Ἠχος δʹ. Τοῦ Ἀποστόλου. Χρηστότητα ἐκδιδαχθείς, καὶ νήφων ἐν πᾶσιν, ἀγαθὴν συνείδησιν ἱεροπρεπῶς ἐνδυσάμενος, ἤντλησας ἐκ τοῦ Σκεύους τῆς ἐκλογῆς τὰ ἀπόῤῥητα καὶ τὴν πίστιν τηρήσας, τὸν ἴσον δρόμον τετέλεκας, Ἀπόστολε Τιμόθεε. Πρέσβευε Χριστῷ τῶ Θεῷ, σωθῆναι τὰς ψυχὰς ἡμῶν. Ἠχος δʹ. Ταχὺ προκατάλαβε. Ὁ Μάρτυς σου Κύριε, ἐν τῇ ἀθλήσει αὐτοῦ, τὸ στέφος ἐκομίσατο τῆς ἀφθαρσίας, ἐκ σοῦ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἔχων γὰρ τὴν ἰσχύν σου, τοὺς τυράννους καθεῖλεν ἔθραυσε καὶ δαιμόνων, τὰ ἀνίσχυρα θράση, αὐτοῦ ταῖς ἱκεσίαις Χριστέ, σῶσον τὰς ψυχὰς ἡμῶν. Ἦχος δ Σήμερον τῆς σωτηρίας ἡμῶν τὸ κεφάλαιον, καὶ τοῦ ἀπ αἰῶνος μυστηρίου ἡ φανέρωσις ὁ Υἷός του Θεοῦ, υἱὸς τῆς Παρθένου γίνεται, καὶ Γαβριὴλ τὴν χάριν εὐαγγελίζεται. Διὸ καὶ ἡμεῖς Dismissal Hymns Mode pl. 2 Angelic powers were above Thy tomb and they that guarded Thee became as dead. * And Mary stood by the grave seeking Your Immaculate Body. * You destroyed Hades yet remained untouched by it. * Thou didst meet the Virgin and did grant us life. * Thou who did rise from the dead, * Lord glory to You. Mode 4. For the Apostle. Having learned kindness, and being always steady and sober, vested with a good conscience as befits a priest, you drew out from the Chosen Vessel the secrets of God. And having kept the faith, you have finished the fair race, O Hieromartyr Timothy. Intercede with Christ our God, entreating Him to save our souls. Mode 4. Come quickly. Your Martyr, O Lord, was worthily awarded by You the crown of incorruption, since he contested for You our immortal God. Since he possessed Your power, he defeated the tyrants, dashing the demons' powerless displays of defiance. O Christ God, at his fervent entreaties, save our souls. Mode 4 Today mark s the crow ning of our salvation and the revelation of the mystery before all ages. For the Son of God becomes the son of the Virgin, and Gabriel proclaims the grace. Wherefore, we also

You sanctified the virginal womb by Your birth, O Lord, and blessed the hands of Symeon fittingly, O Christ God; and even now You came and saved us. Now, give peace to our Nation in time of war, and empower our Leaders, so loved by You, the only one who loves humanity. Ἀπόστολος Α Τιμ. δ Timothy 4:9-15 Epistle Τέκνον Τιμόθεε, πιστὸς ὁ λόγος καὶ πάσης ἀποδοχῆς ἄξιος εἰς τοῦτο γὰρ καὶ κοπιῶμεν καὶ ὀνειδιζόμεθα, ὅτι ἠλπίκαμεν ἐπὶ Θεῷ ζῶντι, ὅς ἐστι Σωτὴρ πάντων ἀνθρώπων, μάλιστα πιστῶν. Παράγγελλε ταῦτα καὶ δίδασκε. Μηδείς σου τῆς νεό- τητος καταφρονείτω, ἀλλὰ τύπος γίνου τῶν πιστῶν ἐν λόγῳ, ἐν ἀναστροφῇ, ἐν ἀγάπῃ, ἐν πνεύματι, ἐν πίστει, ἐν ἁγνείᾳ. Ἕως ἔρχομαι πρόσεχε τῇ ἀναγνώσει, τῇ παρακλήσει, τῇ διδασκαλίᾳ. Μὴ ἀμέλει τοῦ ἐν σοὶ χαρίσματος, ὃ ἐδόθη σοι διὰ προφητείας μετὰ ἐπιθέσεως τῶν χειρῶν τοῦ πρεσβυτερίου. Ταῦτα μελέτα, ἐν τούτοις ἴσθι, ἵνα σου ἡ προκοπὴ φανερὰ ᾖ ἐν πᾶσιν. Τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ, διήρχετο ὁ Ἰησοῦς τὴν Ἰεριχώ καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ ὀνόματι καλούμενος Ζακχαῖος, καὶ αὐτὸς ἦν ἀρχιτελώνης, καὶ οὗτος ἦν πλούσιος, καὶ ἐζήτει ἰδεῖν τὸν Ἰησοῦν τίς ἐστι, καὶ οὐκ ἠδύνατο ἀπὸ τοῦ ὄχλου, ὅτι τῇ ἡλικίᾳ μικρὸς ἦν. καὶ προδραμὼν ἔμπροσθεν ἀνέβη ἐπὶ συκομορέαν, ἵνα ἴδῃ αὐτόν, ὅτι δι' ἐκείνης ἤμελλε διέρχεσθαι. καὶ ὡς ἦλθεν ἐπὶ τὸν τόπον, ἀναβλέψας ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶδεν αὐτόν καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν Ζακχαῖε, σπεύσας Timothy, my son, the saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance. For to this end we toil and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe. Command and teach these things. Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity. Till I come, attend to the public reading of scripture, to preaching, to teaching. Do not neglect the gift you have, which was given you by prophetic utterance when the council of elders laid their hands upon you. Practice these duties, devote yourself to them, so that all may see your progress. Εὐαγγέλιον Λουκ. ιθ 1-10 Luke 19:1-10 Gospel At that time, Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. And there was a man named Zacchaios; he was a chief collector, and rich. And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not, on account of the crowd, because he was small of stature. So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was to pass that way. And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, "Zacchaios, make

4 κατάβηθι σήμερον γὰρ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ σου δεῖ με μεῖναι. καὶ σπεύσας κατέβη, καὶ ὑπεδέξατο αὐτὸν χαίρων. καὶ ἰδόντες πάντες διεγόγγυζον λέγοντες ὅτι παρὰ ἁμαρτωλῷ ἀνδρὶ εἰσῆλθε καταλῦσαι. σταθεὶς δὲ Ζακχαῖος εἶπε πρὸς τὸν Κύριον Ἰδοὺ τὰ ἡμίση τῶν ὑπαρχόντων μου, Κύριε, δίδωμι τοῖς πτωχοῖς, καὶ εἴ τινός τι ἐσυκοφάντησα, ἀποδίδωμι τετραπλοῦν. εἶπε δὲ πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ Ἰησοῦς ὅτι σήμερον σωτηρία τῷ οἴκῳ τούτῳ ἐγένετο, καθότι καὶ αὐτὸς υἱὸς Ἀβραάμ ἐστιν ἦλθε γὰρ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ζητῆσαι καὶ σῶσαι τὸ ἀπολωλός. haste and come down; for I must stay at your house today." So he made haste and came down, and received him joyfully. And when they saw it they all murmured, "He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner." And Zacchaios stood and said to the Lord, "Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have defrauded any one of anything, I restore it fourfold." And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham. For the Son of man came to seek and to save the lost." Timothy the Apostle of the January The Holy Apostle Timothy was from the Lycaonian city of Lystra in Asia Minor. Saint Timothy was converted to Christ in the year 52 by the holy Apostle Paul (June 29). When the Apostles Paul and Barnabas first visited the cities of Lycaonia, Saint Paul healed one crippled from birth. Many of the inhabitants of Lystra then believed in Christ, and among them was the future Saint Timothy, his mother Eunice and grandmother Loida (Lois) (Acts 14:6-12; 2 Tim. 1:5). The seed of faith, planted in Saint Timothy s soul by the Apostle Paul, brought forth abundant fruit. He became Saint Paul s disciple, and later his constant companion and co-worker in the preaching of the Gospel. The Apostle Paul loved Saint Timothy and in his Epistles called him his beloved son, remembering his devotion and fidelity with gratitude. He wrote to Timothy: You have followed my teaching, way of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, and patience (2 Tim. 3:10-11). The Apostle Paul appointed Saint Timothy as Bishop of Ephesus, where the saint remained for fifteen years. Finally, when Saint Paul was in prison and awaiting martyrdom, he summoned his faithful friend, Saint Timothy, for a last farewell (2 Tim. 4:9). Saint Timothy ended his life as a martyr. The pagans of Ephesus celebrated a festival in honor of their idols, and used to carry them through the city, accompanied by impious ceremonies and songs. Saint Timothy, zealous for the glory of God, attempted to halt the procession and reason with the spiritually blind idol-worshipping people, by preaching the true faith in Christ. The pagans angrily fell upon the holy apostle, they beat him, dragged him along the ground, and finally, they stoned him. Saint Timothy s martyrdom occurred in the year 93. In the fourth century the holy relics of Saint Timothy were transferred to Constantinople and placed in the church of the Holy Apostles near the tombs of Saint Andrew (November 30) and Saint Luke (October 18). The Church honors Saint Timothy as one of the Apostles of the Seventy.

5 Ὁ Ἅγιος Ἀναστάσιος ὁ Πέρσης Ὁ Ἅγιος Ἀναστάσιος γεννήθηκε στὸ χωριὸ Ραχὴζ τῆς Περσίας, τῆς ἐπαρχίας Ρασνουνί. Ὀνομαζόταν Μαγουνδάτ, ἦταν υἱὸς τοῦ μάγου Μὰβ καὶ ὑπηρέτησε στὸ στρατὸ ἐπὶ τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῦ βασιλέως Χοσρόη τοῦ Β ( μ.χ.), ὁ ὁποῖος κατέ αβε τὰ Ἱεροσό υμα καὶ μετέφερε στὴ χώρα του τὸν Τίμιο Σταυρὸ (614 μ.χ.). Τότε ὁ Μαγουνδὰτ θέ ησε νὰ μάθει, ἀφοῦ ἄκουσε περὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ τῶν ἐπιτελουμένων θαυμάτων, γιατί οἱ Χριστιανοὶ τιμοῦσαν αὐτόν. Ἔτσι, ἀφοῦ διδάχθηκε ἀπὸ κάποιον πιστὸ ὅτι μὲ τὸν σταυρικὸ θάνατο τοῦ Κυρίου λυτρώθηκε τὸ γένος τῶν ἀνθρώπων, πίστεψε στὸν Χριστό. Ἔπειτα, συμμετέχοντας στὴν ἐκστρατεία τῶν Περσῶν κατὰ τῆς Κωνσταντινουπό εως, βρέθηκε στὴ Χαλκηδόνα. Κατὰ τὴν διαμονή του ἐκεῖ, ἀφοῦ πληροφορήθηκε ὅτι ὁ Ἡράκλειος κατατρόπωσε τοὺς Πέρσες, πῆγε στὴν Ἱεράπολη καὶ ἀπὸ ἐκεῖ στὰ Ἱεροσό υμα ὅπου βαπτίσθηκε ὑπὸ τοῦ Πατριάρχη Μοδέστου, πρὸς τὸν ὁποῖο τὸν ὁδήγησε ὁ ἱερεὺς τοῦ πανίερου Ναοῦ τῆς Ἀναστάσεως καὶ ἔ αβε τὸ ὄνομα Ἀναστάσιος. Στὴν συνέχεια ἐκάρη μοναχὸς στὴ μονὴ τοῦ Ἀββᾶ Ἰουστίνου ἢ κατ ἄ ους στὴ μονὴ τοῦ Ἁγίου Σάββα. Μετὰ ἀπὸ ἑπταετὴ ἄσκηση καὶ διαβάζοντας καθημερινὰ τοὺς βίους τῶν Ἁγίων καὶ τὰ μαρτύριά τους, τοὺς ζή εψε καὶ προσευχόταν νὰ ἀξιωθεῖ τὸ μαρτυρικὸ τέ ος αὐτῶν. Ἔτσι, ὅταν κατὰ τὴν παραχώρηση τοῦ Κυρίου, εἶδε σὲ ὄνειρο ὅτι ἀνέβηκε στὸ ὄρος Κυρίου καὶ στάθηκε στὸν ἅγιο τόπο Αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐκεῖ ἤπιε ἕνα χρυσὸ ποτήρι γεμάτο κρασί, 22 Ιανουαρίου θεώρησε ὅτι σκιαγραφόταν τὸ μέ ον καὶ τὸ μαρτύριό του. Γι αὐτό, γονυπετὴς καὶ ἔνδακρυς, ζήτησε τὴν εὐχὴ τοῦ προεστῶτος ἱερέως τῆς μονῆς γιὰ τὴ μακάρια ἀποδημία του, δηλαδὴ τὴν πορεία του πρὸς τὸ μαρτύριο. Ἀφοῦ κοινώνησε τῶν Ἀχράντων Μυστηρίων κατευθύνθηκε πρὸς τὴν Διόσπολη, γιὰ νὰ προσευχηθεῖ στὸν Ἅγιο Μεγαλομάρτυρα Γεώργιο καὶ ἔφθασε στὴν Καισάρεια τῆς Παλαιστίνης. Ἐκεῖ, ὅταν εἶδε κάποιους μάγους ὁμοεθνεῖς του, ἔ εγξε καὶ χλεύασε τὰ σοφίσματα καὶ τὴν ἀσέβειά τους. Τότε ἐκεῖνοι τὸν συνέ αβαν καὶ τὸν ὁδήγησαν στὸν ἄρχοντα Μαρζαβανά. Ὁ ἄρχοντας διέταξε νὰ ἀφεθεῖ ἐ εύθερος, ἀρκεῖ νὰ ἀρνηθεῖ τὸν Χριστὸ ἐνώπιον ἑνὸς μόνο προσώπου. Ὅμως ὁ Ἀναστάσιος μὲ πνευματικὴ ἀνδρεία ἀπάντησε: «Μὴ δῴη μοι ὁ Θεὸς τῆς ἀγαπήσεως ἐκπεσεῖν τοῦ Χριστοῦ μου». Ὁ Μαρζαβανὰς θύμωσε καὶ ἔδωσε ἐντολὴ νὰ μεταφέρει βαριὲς πέτρες χωρὶς καμιὰ ἀνάπαυλα. Τὰ βασανιστήρια συνεχίστηκαν μέχρι ποὺ ὁδηγήθηκε ἐνώπιον τοῦ βασιλέως τῶν Περσῶν Χοσρόη. Ἀ ὰ καὶ μπροστὰ στὸν βασιλιὰ δὲν φοβήθηκε. Τὸν κτύπησαν ἀ ύπητα, μέχρι θανάτου, μὲ ραβδιά. Τὸ μαρτύριο ἦταν καθημερινό. Στὸ τέ ος τὸν κρέμασαν ἀπὸ τὸ ἕνα χέρι καὶ διὰ βρόχου τὸν ἔπνιξαν καὶ ἀπέκοψαν τὴν κεφαλὴ αὐτοῦ. Τὸ μαρτύριό του ἔγινε τὸ 628 μ.χ. μὲ ἄ ους 70 Χριστιανοὺς Μάρτυρες. Ἡ Σύναξη τοῦ Ἁγίου ἐτελεῖτο στὸ Μαρτύριό του, ποὺ βρισκόταν ἐντὸς τοῦ Ἁγίου Φιλήμονος, στὸ Στρατήγιο.
