Deepen Your Faith

Using the Orthodox Bible app can help you build discipline and routine in your spiritual practice.

Additionally, engaging with the Orthodox calendar fosters a sense of community and shared spiritual practice with other Eastern Orthodox believers.

Translation and Context

The translation of the Old Testament from the Septuagint into English is a meticulous process that requires both linguistic expertise and a profound understanding of the historical and cultural context of the original texts. The Septuagint, or LXX, is an ancient Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible that holds significant importance in biblical scholarship.

Understanding the Orthodox Calendar

The Orthodox calendar, also known as the Julian calendar, is used by many Eastern Orthodox churches worldwide. It is based on the Julian calendar, which was introduced by Julius Caesar in 45 BC and is currently 13 days behind the Gregorian calendar. This difference means that Orthodox holidays, including Easter, fall on different dates compared to those celebrated in the Western world. The Orthodox Easter is celebrated on the Sunday following the first full moon after the vernal equinox, a tradition that remains unchanged.

By using the Orthodox Bible app, you can stay informed about these unique dates and meanings, enriching your spiritual experience and enhancing your understanding of Orthodox traditions.
