Eastern liturgy, full of symbolic and allegorical interpretations, is a mystery that wants to go beyond time and enter into eternity. Therefore, looking at the apparently simple rite of the Great Entrance, it is far from being merely a technical offering of material gifts that will later be consecrated, but a deep theological and symbolic rite. The discovery of this beauty requires reading the language of symbols, so this article is intended to bring closer the symbolic and mystical meaning of the Great Entrance, showing the theology of bringing the gifts in the Byzantine liturgy.
