“As God, Thou didst rise from the tomb in glory, raising the world with Thyself. Human nature praises Thee as God, for death has vanished! Adam exults, O Master! Eve rejoices, for she is freed from bondage, and cries to Thee: Thou art the Giver of Resurrection to all, O Christ!” (Kontakion - Tone 1)

“Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” (Psalm 45:10) God will be exalted in the earth and not only in the church. Men will have their own way and do their own will but they need to know that God will be exalted, God will have His way and do His own will.

“Grace shining forth from your lips like a beacon has enlightened the universe; It has shone to the world the riches of poverty; It has revealed to us the heights of humility. Teaching us by your words, O Father John Chrysostom, Intercede before the Word, Christ our God, to save our souls.” (Troparion — Tone 8)
