The history of the western rite, especially it's publishing history, is pretty cool. Most western rite publications (in and from the Antiochian archdiocese) are handled by Lancelot Andrewes press. They have a version of the Missal that I, unfortunately, haven't hadvthe opportunity to review yet. Well done!

Thank you for this video. The Orthodox Missal is a book that has long tempted me on the Lancelot Andewes Press website, and now if I buy it I will know what I am getting. It's interesting that although it 'modernizes' the layout from the 1928 BCP, it loses one of the real conveniences of the ;28 book, in which the Canon of the Mass is printed entirely on two facing pages so that one needs no page turns.

@@jimmu2008 - I don't know anything about a 1945 BCP. I've learned to say 1928 *American* BCP because there was a British BCP was proposed that same year, though never approved. The '28 book was revised in 1979. I've never used that book. The ACNA published their own BCP in 2019. I intend to review it some day.
@RGrantJones2 жыл бұрын
@@jimmu2008 - I did a little research on that question, and I believe all the certification means is that the John Wallace Suter, who served as custodian of the prayer book for a period beginning in 1942, certified that the printing in 1945 conformed to the standard copy. Massey Shepherd explains in his commentary that this is necessary because the prayer book is not copyrighted and anyone may publish amended or enlarged versions of it. "But only certain editions are canonically permissible for use in the Church's services"; editions that conform to the standard copy.

@@RGrantJones A question: Why would Church Fathers arrange the Hebrew Bible books in a different order than the traditional Jewish order of Torah, Prophets, and Books? Jesus himself and his twelve Apostles talks about this order and mentions The Law, Prophets, and Pslams (part of Books) and mention no Apocrypha. Is the Christian order of books in the Hebrew Bible more Chronological? Or did the Church Fathers do that just to distinguish themselves from the Jewish theology?

@@hassanmirza2392 - This is a topic I don't know very much about. I do know that the earliest complete codices of the Bible we possess date to the fourth century, written in Greek. The order of the books differs somewhat from one manuscript to another. Why the scribes decided to order them as they did, I don't know. The order of the books in the oldest Hebrew manuscript, the Leningrad codex, which is much later, differs from that in modern Hebrew Bibles also. It seems that the order of the books in both Christian and Hebrew Bibles was standardized later than our earliest manuscripts. I haven't investigated to discover who was responsible.

@@RGrantJones Actually the oldest MT text was Aleppo Codex and is older by a few decades than Leningrad Codex, but the Torah part of it was destroyed in Anti-Jewish riots in Syria due to the formation of the state of Israel. It has been restored partially and is called 'Jersulum Crown' and is hosted by an Israeli university. I think it is the official Bible of the Israeli senate. But that makes Leningrad Codex the oldest MT complete copy out there.
