Episode 307 - Let No One Go Forth Hungry
from Lorica
At the Great Vigil of Pascha, we hear the radiant words of John Chrysostom calling all people to the feast. The invitation is astonishingly wide: those who fasted and those who did not, those who came early and those who arrived at the eleventh hour, the rich and the poor alike. No one is turned away, for the joy of the Resurrection is not earned but given. The tomb has become the dawn of pardon, the end of fear, and the overthrow of death itself. Christ descends into hell and shatters its gates from within, taking captivity captive and filling the world with life. The feast is spread before us because the victory is already won. Tonight we stand among angels and saints, hearing again the triumphant proclamation: Christ is risen, and life reigns. The table is richly laden. Let all receive the riches of His goodness.
