ELEVENTH CENTURY
Kecharitomene [32], [33]; (29) Kosmosoteira [13], [14]; (30) Phoberos [9], [10], [11]; (32) Mamas
[47]; (33) Heliou Bomon [46], and (34) Machairas [31], [32], [33], [34], [36]. See also other treatments
of these offices in (4) Stoudios [A10], [33], [A36]; (10) Eleousa [7]; (11) Ath. Rule [7], [8], [9]; and
(20) Black Mountain [10], cf. [25], [26].
[5] Guidelines for reception of communion. Copied later in whole or part, directly or indirectly, by (27)
Kecharitomene [33]; (29) Kosmosoteira [14]; (30) Phoberos [11]; (32) Mamas [32]; (33) Heliou Bomon
[32]; (34) Machairas [36], [37], [38], [39]; and (58) Menoikeion [16].
[6] Prescriptions for the ninth hour, vespers, compline, night office, midnight office and matins. Copied
later in whole or part, directly or indirectly, by (27) Kecharitomene [35], [36], [37], [38], [39]; (29)
Kosmosoteira [15]; (30) Phoberos [12], [13]; (32) Mamas [47]; (33) Heliou Bomon [46]; and (34)
Machairas [48]. See also other treatments of these offices in (4) Stoudios [2], [A3], [4], [10], [11], [12],
[13], [18], [19], [20], [21], [22], [26], [27], [29], [30], [31], [32], [31], [33], [A36], [A37], [B38]; (10)
Eleousa [7]; (11) Ath. Rule [2], [3], [4], [7], [8], [9], [26], [27], [29]; and (20) Black Mountain [11],
[12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18], [19].
[7] Confession. Exagoreusis was not always sacramental in nature; it was offered twice daily after matins
and compline. Copied later in whole or part, directly or indirectly, by (29) Kosmosoteira [16], [17],
[18]; (30) Phoberos [14], [15]; (32) Mamas [30]; (33) Heliou Bomon [30]; and (34) Machairas [50],
[51], [52], [53]. See also the contemporary treatment in (23) Pakourianos [13], which also provides for
daily confession, exclusively to the superior. The requirement of exclusive confession is repeated in
[15] below.
[8] Use of the synaxarion for fasts and vigils. Copied later in whole or part, directly or indirectly, by (29)
Kosmosoteira [19] and (30) Phoberos [16]. Cf. the contrary provision of (20) Black Mountain [20].
[9] Refectory procedures. Copied later in whole or part, directly or indirectly, by (27) Kecharitomene [40],
[41], [42], [43]; (29) Kosmosoteira [20], [21], [22], [23], [24]; (30) Phoberos [20], [21], [22], [23],
[24], [26]; (32) Mamas [17], [36]; (33) Heliou Bomon [17], [35]; (34) Machairas [61], [62], [63], [64],
[66]; and (58) Menoikeion [8]. As can be seen, later authors preferred to subdivide this long chapter in
their own works. See also other discussions in (4) Stoudios [28], [29]; (10) Eleousa [4]; (11) Ath. Rule
[21]; (20) Black Mountain [33]; (23) Pakourianos [8]; and (31) Areia [T3]. The injunction against
secret eating is repeated below again in [22].
[10] Dietary regulations for fasts. Copied later in whole or part, directly or indirectly, by (27) Kecharitomene
[47], [48]; (29) Kosmosoteira [25], [26], [27], [28]; (30) Phoberos [27], [28], [29], [30]; (32) Mamas
[18]; (33) Heliou Bomon [18]; and (34) Machairas [67], [68], [69], [70], [71], [72], [73], [76]. As with
[9] above, later authors preferred to subdivide this long chapter in their own works. See also earlier
regulations for fasts in (4) Stoudios [30], [31]; (11) Ath. Rule [23, [24], [25], [26]; (20) Black Mountain
[38], [38R], [53], [54], [56], [57], [58], [59], [60], [61], [62], [63], [64], [65], [66], [67]; as well as the
contemporary treatment in (23) Pakourianos [10]
[11] Celebration of the feasts of the Lord and feasts of the Mother of God. Copied later in whole or part,
directly or indirectly, by (29) Kosmosoteira [29] and (30) Phoberos [32]. See also the earlier treatment
in (17) Nikon Metanoeite [8], the contemporary treatments in (10) Eleousa [13], (23) Pakourianos
[11], and the critical discussion in (20) Black Mountain [48], [52], [53].
[12] Free and self-governing status. Copied later in whole or part, directly or indirectly, by (27) Kecharitomene
[1]; (29) Kosmosoteira [31]; (30) Phoberos [33]; (32) Mamas [4]; (33) Heliou Bomon [4]; and (34)
Machairas [21]. See also the earlier provisions in (9) Galesios [247] and (13) Ath. Typikon [18] ff.; as
well as the contemporary provisions in (10) Eleousa [18]; (19) Attaleiates [14]; (23) Pakourianos [18];
and (24) Christodoulos [A16]. The curse is similar to that in (8) John Xenos [2].
[13] Choice of the superior and the steward. This, along with [14] below, was one of Evergetis’ more problematic
chapters for later users of this document; the provision for the routine elevation of the steward
to the superiorship did not find favor among them, but they were anxious to utilize parts of this chapter
nevertheless; see later copyings, in whole or part, directly or indirectly, by (27) Kecharitomene [11],
