Have you ever wondered where Rites come from, how they were developed and evolved, and the influences that participated in shaping them as conducted in the Coptic Church today? Have you ever pondered about the theological, spiritual, and, sometimes, the symbolism behind rituals, prayers, and hymns used in the Coptic Church? Have you ever questioned the origin of hymns, their authors, and when they were introduced in the Coptic liturgical scheme?
Deacon Albair Mikhail, known for his contributions to preserving the rich heritage of hymns and rites of the Coptic Orthodox Church, provides a series of books on Coptic Orthodox Liturgical History, focused on uncovering the origins, development, and contemporary implications of Coptic rites and traditions in worship of God.
