Kosta-””The liturgical worship is not alien to Judaism, including incense, kissing of holy objects, bowing, lighting candles, etc. all of which are part of the catholic worship.
Certainly the idea of liturgical worship did not come from the pagan religions, but from the Jewish roots, and is heavily influenced by the Psalms.””

Good post dear Kosta,here is one of my favorite website’s that I use for reference material from Marquette University.

Jewish Roots of Eastern Christian Mysticism

Lot’s of good stuff that lead me away from being protestant years ago.
