An Orthodox on the Feast, with My Comments

The Feast That Isn't in the Bible

3:14 Wait, hadn't St. James already been martyred?

My bad. Chronology:

• St. James sees a bilocation of Her on the Pillar
• St. James is in Jerusalem when She is buried
• St. James is martyred in Jerusalem and brought back to Spain.

13:37 "And that only works if She really died."

Not according to those among the Western theologians who say She didn't. They claim She was glorified as Adam and Eve would have been, had they not sinned.

Note, in Missals from I think 1948 or 49, before the definition, August 14th was not just "vigilia" but explicitly Dormitio.

It involved a text saying "non pro peccato, sed pro conditione carnis".

Glories of Mary explicitly cites St. Andrew of Crete, who, I think, says She lived in Ephesus and was in Jerusalem only for Her dormition and resurrection. Which would explain why St. Epiphanius lacked a tradition about it. As for Pius XII abolishing part of the Vigil liturgy along with the wording of the definition, one could say he went by St. Epiphanius or that he went by a private revelation near Rome the years before.

The pre-definition Dormition liturgy and Pius XII's deliberate silence on whether she died are details the video couldn't fit. You've added something genuinely useful here. God bless.
