2. The Service of Zuyoho (Comment by Dr. George Kiraz)
The Service of Zuyoho for the late Patriarch Mor Ignatius Zakka I (last Sunday in Germany). The service is unique to the Syriac tradition during which the Patriarch is carried by the bishops to the four sides of the church. On each side, they knock the coffin three times against the altar or the church walls.
During the service, a bishop chants on behalf of the deceased "Phush Bashlom" (remain in peace O altar, O church, O faithful, etc.), the clergy then respond "Zel Bashlom..." (go in peace). It is then a moving farewell act. [When one leave someone's home after a visit, the guest says "phush bashlom" and the host says "zel bashlom".]
It is difficult to provide an English equivalent to the Syriac word Zuyoho. It is derived from a verb which means "to put in motion", "to move something", "to lift up something". The Order of Zuyoho embodies all of these meanings as one will see from the video below. While the bishop get ready to carry the coffin, the clergy are chanting the Lord's prayer.
