The Great Entrance

The Great Entrance has been symbolically interpreted as either Jesus' Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem, or His proceeding to His voluntary Passion, or even the carrying of the Lord's Body and Its laying in the tomb.

The priest, while in procession through the faithful, asks Lord, our God, to remember us all in His Kingdom. And as the Cantors finish singing the Cherubic Hymn, the priest sets the Gifts on the Altar, over the Antimension.
