Packet D: Tossup 10

Starting with the month of Tute, this language’s synaxarium (10[1])assigns one of its many martyr hagiographies to its daily liturgy, where it is read following a reading from Acts. Seven “prayers of the hour” are collected within the Agpeya for use within this language’s (10[1])liturgy. (10[1]-5[1])Shenoute the Great (-5[2])wrote in this language (10[1])as an abbot at the White Monastery. (-5[1])The (10[1])Lycopolitan (-5[1])and Sahidic (-5[1])dialects (10[1])of this language were used (10[1])to write the (10[1])Gnostic Nag Hammadi (10[2]-5[1])codices. (10[7]-5[4])The Gospel (-5[1])of (-5[1])Judas (10[1])was written in this (10[1]-5[1])language. (10[2]-5[2])Unlike a related (-5[1])language’s fourteen anaphoras, this language’s liturgies are limited to ones named for Saints Cyril, Gregory, (10[1]-5[1])and (-5[1])Basil, (10[1]-5[2])which (-5[1])supplanted (10[2]-5[1])the Liturgy (-5[1])of St. (-5[1])Mark. (-5[1])For 10 points, (-5[2])Ge’ez (10[1])shares a parent rite (-5[1])with what Demotic-derived (-5[1])language (10[1]-5[1])that names an (10[1])Egyptian-based (10[1]-5[1])Orthodox Church?
