Antidoron

Revision as of 03:41, June 30, 2005 by ASDamick (talk | contribs) (wikification, small expansion)

Antidoron (from Greek, meaning "instead of the gifts") is the remaining bread from a loaf of prosphora after the Lamb has been removed for the Holy Eucharist. It is blessed immediately after the epiclesis during the Divine Liturgy and is given by the priest to the faithful after the service.
