14 - An ancient liturgy in the Sanctuary, Jericho, Palestinian Territory

Many of the ancient Christian faiths conduct their liturgies (worship) at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. This one was Byzantine. If you look closely, on the right there is a Byzantine Patriarch or Bishop on the throne. At that moment he was singing/proclaiming something in another language. The chant that the priests were singing was haunting, nothing like I had heard before.
