Another book that I find very useful is the Byzantine Daily Worship book, put together by +Most Rev. Joseph Raya of eternal memory and Baron Jose De Vinck. The format utilized concurs with Melkite usage. Below are the contents of this fine book:

This is a classic and still is a wonderful prayer resource. Mine unfortunately is being held up with black tape from years and years of use. Raya was the first Byzantine prayer book I ever owned - and perhaps the first and one of the few prayer books made with the blessing of both Catholic and Orthodox Patriarchs.
Our former local Antiochian priest used Raya for the prayers of light at Vespers and other private prayers of the priest -he said he preferred the print as well as the text (his was as taped up as mine also).

Two things, both very very astounding questions.
First, where can I get a copy of Byzantine Daily Worship? I know it is out of print.
Second, since it is unlikely I will be able to get a copy, would anyone with a copy be interested in typing up or working with me so that I could type up the book? That is, assuming that BDW, like most Melkite resources, has an open-use policy for reproduction for non-financial gains.

Laka, try Icon and Book Service, Light and Life, the Melkites and Madonna House in Canada before completely giving up.

Laka if there are any available Fr. Deacon Seraphim will have them at the Melkite Convention. If you want, pm me, and I will give you his email/phone number so you can reserve one.

I've been lucky enough to acquire the Hopgood service book from the early 1900's. I'm needling the librarian to delist their copy of Byz Daily Worship too.

Are the prayer translations used in Byzantine Daily Worship consistent with those found in the Byzantine Book of Prayer as opposed to current Melkite usage?
For example:
BBP: "Heavenly King, Comforter, Spirit of Truth! You are everywhere present and fill all things. Treasury of Blessings and Giver of Life, come and dwell within us, cleanse us of all stain, and save our souls, O gracious Lord."
Melkite Horologion: "O Heavenly King, Consoler, Spirit of Truth, present in all places and filling all things, the Treasury of blessings and the Giver of life, come and dwell in us, cleanse us of all stain, and save our souls, O Good One."
I would appreciate any input.

BDW follows Melkite Usage. BBP used BDW texts but changed them to fit Ruthenian Usage.
