Old Testamen forty-six books (including seven canonical books removed by the Protestant church). New Testament twenty-seven books

There are three liturgies in the Diving Liturgy book: St. Basil, St. Gregory, and St. Cyril. The Basilian Liturgy is customarily used throughout the year. The Gregorian Liturgy is often reserved for the festive occasions of the Lord Christ (e.g. Christmas, Epiphany, Easter etc.). The Cyrillian Liturgy was written by St. Mark the apostle and then modified slightly by St. Cyril the great and can be used throughout the year and especially during Lent periods.

Seven hours of prayers are in the Agpeya book. “Seven times everyday I praise You” (Psalm 119:164). The prayer of the veil is an extra prayer for monks.

There are five different Katameros in our Coptic Orthodox Church.  (a) Annual for Sundays – readings depend on the Coptic month that we are in.  (b) Annual for weekdays – readings depend on the Coptic date (e.g. the tenth day of the month of Baba….etc.). The theme for these readings depends on the Synexarium of the day.  (c) The Great Lent – contains the readings of all the days of the Great Lent including Jonah’s Lent.  (d) The Holy Week – contains all the readings of the Holy Week.  (e) The Holy Fifty days – contains the readings of all the Holy Fifty days from Easter to Pentecost.

The Synexarium is the book of the life of our Saints and Martyrs. It is a beautiful practice to have a Synexarium at home and read about the Saints of the day.

We have two different psalmodies. Annual psalmody: which contains the praises of all the days of the week and all the occasions, except the month of Kiahk, Kiahk Psalmody, which contains all the praises for the special month of Kiahk.

This book contains special psalies for special feasts of the Lord Christ and the feasts of the Saints usually not found in the annual Psalmody.
