Third Antiphon Hristos anesti ek nekron, Thanato thanato patisas, ke tis en tis mnimasi, Zoin harisamenos. Christ is risen from the dead, By death, trampling down upon death, And to those in the tombs He has granted life.

Priest: Who is so great a God as our God? You are the God who works wonders! Chanter: You have revealed Your power among the people. Chanter: Who is so great a God as our God? You are the God who works wonders! Chanter: I remembered the deeds of the Lord and was glad. All: Who is so great a God as our God? You are the God who works wonders!

GOSPEL READING: John 20:19-25 On the evening of that day, the first day of the week, the doors being shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.” When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. Then the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord. Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you.” And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.” Now Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see in his hands the print of the nails, and place my finger in the mark of the nails, and place my hand in his side, I will not believe.”
