The Holy Myrrh-Bearing Women - those who were the first to come to the tomb of Jesus

The temple is named after the holy Myrrh-Bearing Women. These are the women who were the first to come to the tomb of Jesus Christ on Sunday to anoint the body of the deceased with myrrh.

Seven Women, faithful to the Savior to the end. It was they who asked Pontius Pilate to allow him to take the body of Jesus for burial.

• Mary Magdalene;
• Solomiya;
• John;
• Marfa;
• Maria Kleopova;
• Susanna;

Church of the Myrrh-Bearing Women in Veliky Novgorod as a museum

The exhibition, called Hands - Work, Soul - Holiday, was organized by the staff of the Vitoslavlitsy Museum of Wooden Architecture. The fairly close location, 3.5 kilometers, is complemented by one more circumstance. In ancient times, the Church of the Myrrh-Bearing Women in Veliky Novgorod was religiously subordinate to the St. George's Monastery. A museum on the site of a degenerate village and one of the oldest Russian monasteries are immediate neighbors. The exhibition has an ethnographic focus, useful to the current owners of the building.

The exhibition presents traditional peasant occupations, crafts of local artisans, trading activities and family life. Most of the exhibits are preserved items from the second half of the 19th century or the beginning of the next. It is not always easy for our contemporaries to identify the purpose of exhibits without the help of explanatory texts. Of no less interest are the architectural features of the temple interior of the early 16th century, cosmetically updated by restorers.

Interiors and exhibits

Cross vaults, arched passages, window openings and niches, curious in themselves, are complemented by interesting exhibits. The Church of the Myrrh-Bearing Women in Veliky Novgorod with a cart at the turn of the gallery reminds of the profession of a cart master. The now vanishing craftsmen must have had a rare set of skills, from woodworking to metal forging. Shaft carts were the main transport from capitals to provincial villages; there was no alternative. The wheels and shafts wore out quickly due to bad roads, and the craftsmen were not idle.

People invented dishes in time immemorial, first adapting available objects, then mastering pottery. An unknown inventor figured out to make a rotating circle to turn a lump of clay into a smooth product. It was from the potter's wheel that wheels emerged, one of the most important devices to this day. Potters were not limited to replicating the simplest forms; creating new ones was the oldest form of creativity. Aesthetic needs gave rise to painting of vessels and other products, the first painting.

From potters to blacksmiths and other artisans

The metal in its original form was processed by cold forging and worked on a wooden block from a thick trunk. The hot method required a massive metal anvil, a forge for heating it red-hot, and bellows for fanning the coals. The Church of the Myrrh-Bearing Women in Veliky Novgorod presents blacksmith products for various purposes, nearby are fishing nets of varying degrees of readiness. Weaving nets was an independent craft, fishing was one of the ways of obtaining food. Several occupations provided peasant and craft farms with woven products.

Omitting the stage of caring for flax crops, we will describe its path to the canvas. After air-drying the plucked shoots, they were threshed on a threshing floor to obtain seeds for the following year. Then they dried it in an oven, crushed it and frayed it into soft fibers using special tools. Spinning threads was one of the main operations, the spindle and spinning wheel were the main tools. The threads were dyed in vats using dyes from plant materials, achieving bright and long-lasting colors.

Hand weaving is the main women's craft

Cattle breeding and agriculture provided the local population with food, and they also provided ungulate wool and plant fibers. Fibers were turned into threads of yarn on manual and mechanical spinning wheels; multi-spindle spinning wheels are considered the best. They even call this device one of the inventions of the brilliant da Vinci, but the validity has not been checked. One of the fragments of the exhibition, located in the Church of the Myrrh-Bearing Women in Veliky Novgorod, is entirely dedicated to the crafts of spinning and weaving.

Several examples of hand spinning wheels with the original fiber (tows) are presented, on the blade of which the woman sat. Several other designs comment on the museum's explanations on the plaques. Here you can also get acquainted with the basics of weaving using the example of a manual vertical loom, essentially a modification of an embroidery hoop. Warp threads were placed vertically, which were fastened with weft threads, threaded through devices - shuttles by the hands of weavers. The edge of a horizontal machine, more convenient and productive, is visible.

Wood is the basis of the ancient economy

Without belittling the role of metals, wood should still be recognized as the basis of the ancient Russian way of life. Dwellings and temples, dishes, furniture, tools and fixtures were made either entirely or partially from wood. In addition to the wood itself, the bark and young shoots of some trees were used; they were used for weaving. Making baskets and boxes from wicker and birch bark containers, weaving bast shoes, carving spoons and troughs occupied entire families, sometimes entire villages.

The variety of wooden products from the Church of the Myrrh-Bearing Women in Veliky Novgorod is so great that it is difficult to represent them by name. It is not difficult to identify their purpose; many have modern analogues or have remained unchanged. The preparation of wood for transformation into finished products, on the contrary, has undergone serious, even radical changes. Manual removal of tree bark is a thing of the past; only for individual crafts are peeling devices of the simplest device used.

Cultural and educational life of the temple

Within the walls of the temple cultural life is very developed. Many events and celebrations are held with the participation of parishioners. Much attention is paid to the cultural and educational development of youth. Film screenings are held for everyone.

The rector of the temple, Mikhail Sergeev, talks with young people as part of one of the events

The following educational associations operate in the temple:

• Gospel meetings;
• Youth Club;
• Sunday School.

One of the meetings of the youth club that operates in the temple.

Temple of the Holy Myrrh-Bearing Women

The Church of the Holy Myrrh-Bearing Women was built by the Kopiski family in the village of Krutovo, Petushinsky district, Vladimir region, from 2000 to 2003. The temple is made in the traditional northern style, widespread in Arkhangelsk, the homeland of the ancestors of Nina Valerievna Kuzmicheva-Kopiska.

The laying of the foundation stone for the church in honor of the Holy Myrrh-Bearing Women was performed by Archbishop of Vladimir and Suzdal Evlogii on October 6, 2000. On May 10, 2003, on the eve of the patronal feast, Archbishop Eulogius performed the Rite of Consecration of the temple.

For the newly consecrated church, the Bishop blessed the ancient icon of St. Theodosius of Chernigov. Mother Tabitha, abbess of the Murom Holy Trinity Convent, brought icons painted in the monastery workshop as a gift to the temple: the image of the Holy Trinity and Sts. the noble princes and miracle workers of Murom Peter and Fevronia with a particle of their holy relics.

The Church of the Holy Myrrh-Bearing Women was built in the traditions of ancient Russian wooden architecture and is a classic example of a tent-roofed church of the “octagon on a quadrangle with a refectory” type.

The tent above the main volume of the temple, crowned with a bulbous dome, is the main vertical line of the architectural design. The refectory part is quite short and is closely adjacent to the main quadrangle. From the west, the longitudinal composition is completed by a hipped bell tower and a porch leading to the main entrance to the church. On the northern and western sides, an open gallery adjoins the temple, which is visually perceived as a decorative design of a church building.

The Church of the Holy Myrrh-Bearing Women is located in the Klyazma floodplain on an embankment hill and from the outside looks like a majestic and monumental structure. A completely different impression arises inside the church. The internal volume turns out to be small, intimate and, at the same time, sufficient for a small number of rural parishioners.

The altar space is separated from the main volume by a high three-tier iconostasis, traditional for Rus'. The place for singers is located in the choir (upper tier), where a staircase leads from the vestibule. During the spring flood of the Klyazma, the temple ends up on an island, but parishioners easily get to it via a covered wooden bridge. Divine services in the temple are held on weekends.

Church of St.
The Myrrh-Bearing Women was first mentioned in the inventory of the city of Vladimir for 1625. The church was cold, wooden, single-domed and, judging by its image on the “Drawing” of 1715, of the kletsky type (kletsky-type churches are based on one or more rectangular log frames - cages. Such forms for temples were borrowed from civil engineering). It stood behind the ramparts of the Vetchany City and was dedicated to the myrrh-bearing women - women who, according to church tradition, came on the third day to anoint the body of the buried Jesus Christ with fragrant myrrh. It can be assumed that the builder of the temple was a woman named after one of the myrrh-bearing women - Mary. 1628 - written mention in the patriarchal books: “the Church of the Holy Myrrh-Bearing Women in the suburb outside the city... tribute 12 altyn 4 dengi, vicars’ hryvnia.” In 164 (1656) the tribute from this church was increased: “32 altyns and two money were due.” In 1710-1715 the priest here was a certain Yakov Ivanov. In the inventory of 1628, next to the Church of the Myrrh-Bearers, the warm Church of St.
Leonty, Bishop of Rostov , with a chapel in the name of St. Guria and Barsanuphius, Kazan miracle workers. In 1732, the priest of the Myronositsk Church, Alexander Yakovlev, reported to the state synodal order that this church “became dilapidated and the roof was rotten and wood was made for this church”; therefore, he asked for permission to dismantle it with the chapel and re-build a warm church in the name of “Hodegetria the Most Holy.” Mother of God." According to the certificate in the order, it turned out that “according to the salary books of 732, there were 49 parish households in the Mironositsky parish, in the scribe books there were 133 and 134 (1625 and 1626). it is written: “reap 30 kopecks and reap 20 kopecks.” Meanwhile, sacred. Alexander Yakovlev stated that he would like to consecrate the new church “not in the name of the Hodegetria of the Most Holy Theotokos, but in honor of the Entry into the Temple of the Most Holy Theotokos.” On January 31, 1732, the requested permission was given and in the same year the warm church was built. As can be seen on the “Drawing” of 1715 and on the pre-regular plan of the city, from the Kremlin from the Ivanovsky Bridge along the slope of a natural plateau the road descended directly to the Myronositskaya Church. Below were the monastic settlements of two monasteries - Rozhdestvensky and Bogoroditsky. Monastery ministers and townspeople lived in the settlements; there, apparently, were small wooden churches with cemeteries. It is known that one of the churches was dedicated to St. Onuphrius the Great (built in 1720-21). She stood below the Bogoroditsky Monastery directly opposite the Virgin Mary Church. Her parish included about 20 households. The foundation of the church in the form of a square, laid out of white and wild stone, was visible back in 1850 and was presumably located on the site of house No. 14 on modern Zheleznodorozhnaya Street. The existence of a second church in the settlement near the Nativity Monastery can only be speculated. In 1850, workers while laying a descent to Klyazma discovered several ancient graves and remains of bones and skulls. According to local historian V.I., who observed the work. Dobrokhotov, in this place there was a Podmonastyrskaya settlement, where there was a church with a cemetery. Between these two churches in the 17th century. there was a wooden church of the Myrrh-Bearing Women. In May 1729, Corporal Fyodor Maksimov Koptev reported to the Vladimir Provincial Chancellery, “In front of the Church of the Myrrh-Bearing Women, in two places this shaft is dug up from the rain. The vegetable garden of the Volodymyr townsman Maxim Toporkov is 28 fathoms long along the shaft, 2 fathoms across and larger. Opposite the Bogoroditsky Monastery is the garden of the Volodymyer townsman Login Zagryazhsky, the length of the shaft is 15 fathoms, across the monastery by 2 and more...” In 1732, a new antimins was needed for the cold Myrrh Church, because in December 1731, “thieves’ people stole many church things and including the consecrated antimension from the throne,” and therefore the divine service was not performed in the church. This cold church existed until 1756. In 1756, in the month of April, a newly appointed priest from the Vladimir Assumption Convent in place of the priest Alexander Yakovlev who died in 1755 (this priest was buried near the Miron church) Andrei Vasiliev with the church warden Yakov Borovetsky asked for restructuring dilapidated Myronositsa Church. The Vladimir Spiritual Consistory instructed the Dmitrievsky priest Peter to examine the dilapidation of the mentioned church. It turned out: About the time of construction of this church, the parish people showed that they do not have any written news about it, “in fact, in this Myrrh-Bearing Church, in the second tier, above the Apostles, there is an inscription in the tibla: summer 7157 (1649), September 21 day, under the power of the Sovereign Tsar and Grand Duke Alexei Mikhailovich of All Russia, under His Holiness Joseph Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus', a church was erected in the name of the holy Myrrh-Bearing Women, according to the great diligence of Vasily Ermalaev, after his parents.” And what’s more, this deacon (the testimony was taken from the deacon, there must have been no priest at that time), and the parish people themselves have no news; Yes, there are no old parish people at this church now.” In May of the same year, an inventory of the dilapidations of the Myronositsa Church was compiled, in which it turned out: 1. The cross on the head was shaken from rottenness. 2. The roof and the plank roof of the church were all on fire and sank. 3. The altar and church walls in many places, and especially the logs from the ground rotted, and as a result the church swayed to the north side. 4. There are papers around that church, and the roof on them is very rotten and sagging. Near the paper and the entrance tents all rotted and collapsed without a trace. 5. Inside that church, in the altar from the altar to the altar, the floor was very bent. 6. And this church will no longer be reliable for sacred service without restructuring. The church estate land at this church along 60 fathoms in half, across 19 fathoms and a quarter, hayfields 20 kopecks. There is a blessed document in the file, from which it is clear that the dilapidated wooden Myronositsa Church was dismantled and rebuilt with the addition of new wood and erected in the same place. The certificate was given in Vladimir “year of the universe 7264” (1756). Upon examination of the newly built church, it turned out: 1. The church was built of wooden osmirik, the dome was upholstered in tin, and the cross was gilded. 2. The royal doors are carved, the canopy and columns are gilded. 3. Tin vessels. 4. The altar gospel is new, covered with green velvet, the crucifix and silver evangelists. The newly built church was consecrated by His Grace Plato, Bishop of Vladimir. In the Topographical Description of the City of Vladimir in 1761 about [1] In 1776, instead of wooden churches, a stone church was built, to which a covered stone gallery was attached on the north side. On the church dome there is an iron carved gilded four-pointed cross with a crown at the top and a crescent at the bottom. In 1795, her parish consisted of 44 households. Since 1798, Alexey Nikolin began teaching a rhetoric class at a theological school. In 1799, A. Nikolin was ordained a priest to the Myronositsa Church in the city of Vladimir, but did not leave the service at the school. At the beginning of the 19th century, a Gothic stone bell tower was built, a gallery was built around the church and painted with yellow paint. The Myronositsa Church becomes a “station church”; here they prayed for a safe journey. In it, Tsar Alexander II, during his visit to Vladimir on August 4, 1863, prayed during the liturgy and donated 200 rubles to the clergy. silver On November 18, 1864, the churchwarden of the Myronositsa Church, Vladimir tradesman Alexei Godovikov, for his diligent service in this position, was given the blessing of the Holy Governing Synod with the issuance of the established charter. On June 11, 1865, the gratitude of His Eminence Theophan, Bishop of Vladimir, to the priest of the Myronositsk Church Andrei Zlatovratsky was declared for successfully bringing to consciousness through exhortations those accused of criminal matters. On December 17, 1866, the deacon of the village of Churilova, Vladimir district, Nikolai Vinogradov was moved to the Vladimir City Myrrh-Bearing Church. In con.
