The Sunday of the Publican and the Pharisee

Feast · sunday

  • Pascha − 70 (Eastern Orthodox Church)

The Triodion opens ten weeks before Pascha with a parable of two men praying, and the week that follows is fast-free — the first move of the fast being to forbid fasting.

After The Typikon, ch. 49, the Triodion — the Sunday of the Publican and the Pharisee, «Недѣ́лѧ, въ ню́же чте́тсѧ сщ҃е́нное и҆ ст҃о́е є҆ѵⷢ҇лїе, при́тчи мытарѧ̀ и҆ фарїсе́а», p. 782.
