* The
bishop usually wears a golden crown during prayer as
did the twenty-four heavenly priests (Rev. 4:4). * This crown reminds us
of the heavenly crown as well as
Christ's
crown of thrones. * It is also symbolic of
the authority given by the Lord to His high
priest (2 Cor. 10:8), by which a
patriarch becomes the steward of the secrets of
Christ (1 Cor. 4:4). * All through the
previous generation
deacons used to wear white crowns (caps)
ornamented by icons and crosses, while they were praying the
Liturgy of the
Eucharist.
