Worum es in diesem Buch geht
Orthodox Daily Prayers is a prayer book of the Eastern Orthodox Church. It has no single author. It gathers prayers that Christians in the Greek, Slavic and other Orthodox traditions have said for many centuries, and each edition makes its own selection. Some texts are linked by tradition to saints and Church fathers, and many are anonymous.
The book gives you a daily rule of prayer, a pattern for the hours when a believer wakes, eats, works and goes to sleep. You will meet morning and evening prayers, prayers of thanks and repentance, and prayers for family, the sick and the departed. Let us begin with where these prayers come from and how they are arranged.

A book gathered by the Church over centuries
Orthodox prayer books are not the work of one writer. They collect texts that the Eastern Church has used over many generations. The prayers were first written in Greek, Church Slavonic and other languages, and each tradition prints its own selection in its own tongue.
The core is usually a daily rule. It includes morning prayers, evening prayers, prayers before sleep and prayers at meals. Many books add prayers before and after Holy Communion, prayers for the sick, for travelers and for the departed. Psalms often appear as well, because the Church has prayed them from its earliest days.
Tradition links some of these prayers to saints and Church fathers, such as Basil the Great and John Chrysostom. Others have no known author at all. Editors over time arranged the whole so that a believer praying alone at home joins the same words the Church prays in many places. That shared use is the point of the collection, more than any single author.
That’s 1 of 4 key points.
