Doing three psalms in the morning and three in the evening is the most simple rule anyone can have. It is a rule I used for years until my daily schedule became more normal. I highly recommend it.
All you do is spend my money, Raph. Nephew (23) is being baptized into the church this Sat. Buying the blue Psalter for him (and one for me as well plus the Agpeya and prayers of the desert.)
Thanks, man! I usually teeter between reading like 4+ kathismata in a straight shot and then burning out and not reading any Psalms besides Psalm 4, 5, 50 and a couple others.
Paraclete is so ofyen used in the Western Rite, and you really only get things like that from those familiar with the two and how they augment each other. ❤ The Agpeya is also so beautiful. Good compilation.
Thanks for your efforts. Because of my weakness in praying the Byzantine rule I once devised a 2 week rule. It went something like this: Wk 1 (beginning Sunday) 3; 5; 7, 9; 11; 13, 15; 19, 18; 1 (on Sat.). Wk 2 - 2; 4, 6; 8; 10, 12; 14; 20; 16, 17. Unfortunately I was still not strong enough.
Love the reviews. How about a short video where you take all the Psalters and prayer books and put them in two stacks; one for those in contemporary English , and the other in traditional/Elizabethan? That would be of great utility to me and possibly others. Perhaps you could also mention which manner of translation is used early in each new review. You mention it in some, but not in others unless I have missed it. I lean towards preferring contemporary English for a variety of reasons.
I like my prayer rule to be a bit hardcore. So I read prime and Vespers from the agpeya. I love that I can read the desert fathers like evagrius of pontus and may have prayed from something similar. The psalter for prayers looks good too.
The fact that there's this many "official" and established traditions just points to the moral of the story: read them how you can and take heaven by storm.
The great Swedish /Russian tenor Nicolai Gedda in you’re opening music . Might is inclusive of strength . I have the Agpeya , I love using it . But I usually start nodding after 20 minutes you’re only a convert for the length of the service of you’re Chrismation . After that you are Orthodox . No need to wear a yellow C armband for the rest of you’re life
You had the STMP Prayer book pulled out, was there anything you had planned to add about using it for reading the psalms. It’s my primary prayer book atm, so any tips or tricks would be much appreciated
I saw an interview Fr Josiah Trenham did with Fr Patrick Reardon where the latter said the psalter Of the seventy was the only acceptable translation of the psalms. What do you think of that?
I should also say: thanks so much for all your reviews, it’s really helpful to SEE the books and have someone go through the content as my brain needs it explained and shown like that. Thanks for all you do ☦️🙏🏻
@@OrthodoxReview I looked again and again and just must be being dumb because I cannot see them. I did look again before commenting 😂 Maybe it’s your ministry to help the slow of learning…
@@OrthodoxReview I live in germany so my first go to is everything but websites in the US cause the shipping make everything double the price. 12€ for the shipping... Or the Orthodox Christian prayer book by St Tikhons Monastery...50€ 🤦🏼♂️
Both translations are based on Hebrew and vulgate, ignoring, for the most part, the septuigent. With this comes incorrect terminology and omission of entire passages.

Praying a stasis in the morning and one in the evening will have you read the whole psalter in a month. (20 x 3 = 60)
I may have mentioned that as one of the many options in a later video, I think from last year?

I want all the psalters!!!
There's a link to an Amazon list with all the psalters on it in the description😁

A keen ear, and wise observation. 🙏

Just that the rule of St Pachomius is in it.
Orthodox Review Gotcha, thank you.

I've heard him say that on multiple occasions. I disagree, though I understand where he's coming from.
Bro, please put a link to the books on your description
All book reviews have purchase links...

I'm retarded, lol... the links are on the individual review episodes. My bad
I can't find "prayers of the desert" anywhere.
The link is literally in the video description.
