Tonight we celebrate the Vespers service for the Feast of The Annunciation. We are reminded that the Orthodox Church is indeed scriptural as the Vespers service contains Old Testament readings pointing us to the Feast being celebrated the next day. Father Gregory expounds on two of the readings tonight taken from Genesis and Ezekiel. The former shows why Orthodoxy considers the Theotokos to be the ladder that connects heaven and earth and the latter reading from Ezekiel points to the Virgin Mary's Ever virginity.
