GENERAL COMMENTS
An introduction to the Divine Liturgy of the Armenian Apostolic Church, especially its Biblicial basis, by V. Rev. Fr. Vatché Iknadiossian.
According to the preface, the book is divided into four parts:
"In the First Part, we speak about the idea of the Sacrifice [Divine Liturgy], among the nations and the Jewish race. About the the Mosaic Passover feast, sacrificial lamb and other sacrifices.
In the Second Part, about the Paschal feast and its date, according to the Four Gospels, and about Christ's sacrifice.
In the Third Part, concerning the Christian beginning, about the dominant understanding of the Divine Liturgy, and we demonstrate using Biblical arguments that this sacrament is of the Holy Scripture, continuous until its arrival to our day, and it will certainly be offered until Christ's Second Coming.
In the Fourth Part, we explain the celebration of the mystery of the Divine Liturgy" (8).
