In the West, Christmas and the Epiphany had 

 always been two distinct festivals. The Eastern 

 churches began to adopt the practice of the Western 

 in tlie latter part of the fourth century. So that 

 from that time forth they kept Christmas on the 

 twenty-fifth of December, and the Epiphany on the 

 sixth of January. Chrys. II, 355 A Kal rot ye

But long after the separation of these festivals, the 

 names 'ETTK^dwa and O£o(j)dvia, with their modifica- 

 tions, were indiscriminately applied to both. The 

 Greek chuix'h finally adopted 'H yemrjo-is tov Xpiarov 

 for the Nativity, and to eco(j>dvia for the Baptism, or 

 the Epiphany. In the popular language of the 

 present day, the words for Christmas and Ejnphany 

 are XpicrToiyewa and *to7-a, respectively. 



In the Armenian church Annunciation, Christmas, 

 and the Baptism, are all celebrated on the fifth of 

 January. Callist. 18, 53. But compare Coteler.
