The Agpeya and the Psalms.

     The principal element in the structure of the Agpeya is a selection of Psalms specially arranged to correspond with the basic theme of the hour in question. The Book of Psalms is seen by the Coptic Church as a source of divine treasure and a stream of spiritual edification and teaching which covers all aspects of the relationship between God and man. Therefore, the Church used the Psalms as a remedy of the believers’ lives and a means of inflaming their hearts with the fire of divine love.
