Greek was the common language in alexandria and all over the world. U can also notice that a lot of parts in our liturgy (especially deacon responses) are in Greek. since Alexandria was the center of knowledge, many people used 2 go there and the common language used among those who were educated was Greek. So when they attended liturgies, they did not know what part they were at ,hence, most of the deacon responses (pray for our high priest... pray for the safety of the world) and so on. So 2 answer ur question, Greek was the more common language then, and so that was the main saying which was preserved, however i personally say it in coptic to my coptic friends and greek to my greek friends
Btw both languages are amazing, they are mixed in the liturgy, the flow and the sound is GREAT! |

i personally say it in 6th century jamaican and i try to convince people in my church to say it as well. i even wrote this really cool fraction for Abouna to say during the Eucharist. But every year, I get deferred to the Theological Examination Committee.. somehow they don't like the font I'm using.. it's not Coptic enough. |

Grigorii confirms, must be true.
Sotirmou, why don't you set up a Jamaican Orthodox Church and give your Arawak to them? Oh, wait, the people there aren't Arawaks anymore.  |

The Son takes His office as Mediator, the Son is the beloved of the Father.
The Son offers His life for the world, the Father is the beloved of the Son.
The Holy Spirit proceeds for the Incarnation of the Son, the Son is the beloved of the Holy Spirit.
The Son sends the Holy Spirit of the Father, the Holy Spirit becomes the beloved of the Son.
The movement of love of the Holy Thriad is the perichoresis, where Each exchanges His movement with the other. When we pray in the beloved Lord Jesus Christ, we receive from Him the Holy Spirit because the Son is the Head of the new creation. But we also receive the Son our Lord from the Holy Spirit in order to rest in the Father.
