Description
Agioreitiko Braided Rope 50 Knots. This is an aid prayerfor monks, clergy and lay people of the Orthodox Christian religion.
All Orthodox monks and many lay people have a rosary, it is usually woolen and braided in various sizes.
It is usually woven from wool to symbolize that all believers are the rational sheep of Jesus Christ, and is black to symbolize the mourning of sins.
It ends up in a tassel whose purpose is to wipe away the tears.
The 33 knots symbolize the years of Jesus, the 99 the 33 multiplied by the number of persons of the Holy Trinity and each knot of 9 braided crosses, which symbolize the nine orders of angels.
As" prayer tool” is used when each time the prayer is said (usually a short wish) we count a knot.
Thus the number of repetitions or the passage of time can be controlled. Some rosaries have beads every 33, 50 or 100 knots.
Each time a bead is measured the person praying does something else, the point of the cross, "repentance" or change the form of the prayer.
It is not considered necessary, but it is an optional aid. Those who have advanced to the Wish of Jesus consider it unnecessary, but recognize its usefulness.
