Madrasha from the Feast of the Ascension
Response:
Thanksgiving to the Victor who won and made all victorious,
and ascended in glory to heaven.
Verses:
One high priest was taken from among mortals to the altar of peace,
and he entered for priestly service in the divine dwelling on behalf of his flock.
He was made worthy to enter into the Holy of Holies higher than the earthly sanctuary;
by the blood of his qnoma he entered and was seen by the Hidden One,
and won salvation forever.
By his own blood he absolved the hateful wickedness of the sons of his race,
and by his purity he purified mortality, which was filled with sufferings.
Like a vestment, he washed them and made them pure vessels;
in his body, he wore them, like a priest his vestment,
and entered the great sanctuary of heaven.
