«...Иисус Наставник, помилуй нас!»

Thy birth, Christ our God, illumined the world with the light of the knowledge of God, for at that time those who served the stars as God were taught by the star to worship Thee, the Sun of righteousness, and to know Thee, O East, from on high. Lord, glory to You.

Vedeti - to know.

This troparion says that the birth of the Saviour was a spiritual light for people, because by the miraculous star that appeared at the birth of the Saviour, the Eastern sages came to know Him.

Who are the servants of the stars?

The Eastern sages, who divined the fate of man by the currents of the stars, and who, by the appearance of a special star in the sky, learned of the birth of the Saviour.

Who is this East from above?

This is our Savior Jesus Christ, who enlightens us with faith from the heavenly heights, just as the rising sun in the east pours daylight over the earth and revives it.

When Thou, O Lord, was baptized in the Jordan, the worship (glorification) of the Holy Trinity was revealed: for the voice of the Parent bore witness of Thee, calling Thee the beloved Son, and the Spirit in the form of a dove confirmed the truth of (this) word. Christ God, Who appeared in the world, glory to Thee.

What does this troparion say?

That during the Baptism of the Lord all three persons of the Holy Trinity appeared to people: God the Father in a voice, the Son of God in the flesh, and the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove.
