| Summary: | The purpose of this article is to analyze the changes introduced in the official liturgical books of the OCU from the perspective of liturgical renewal. Some of the corrections made in the new editions show a tendency to renew the liturgical life, to restore an original form of liturgical prayer by removing later additions. This applies first of all to the order of the Divine Liturgy, from which it is now proposed to eliminate the prayers for catechumens, the Troparion of the Third Hour, and the insertion of some words of Anaphora of St. John Chrysostom into the Anaphora of St. Basil. Other minor changes show an attempt to use more inclusive language, to avoid misunderstandings and to correct some errors in previous translations. It should be noted that the suggested changes are desirable but not obligatory. |
