ἐπιφάνεια



Epiphany means something like a striking appearance. Of course, nothing in human history was more striking in appearance that God becoming man borne of woman. So, today, which is Epiphany (except where it isn't for reasons I don't understand), our traditio is one of my favorite Christmas carols, We Three Kings of Orient Are sung in Cambridge. The Anglican tradition has such an amazingly lovely tradition of sacred choral music.

Happy Epiphany!
