V. Rev. Fr. Anastasios Gounaris
Holy Week is not a celebration of long ago events. It is the reliving of Christ's Passion and Resurrection in the present. The hymns of the week repeatedly use the present tense and the word "today" because Christ's saving Passion and life-giving Resurrection are a present day reality and hope -- not some far away historical.
