Friday.--In the Prayer Book we find that Friday of each week is placed in the Table of Fasts to be observed in this Church throughout the year, and the rubric directs that it be announced to the congregation on the Sunday before. Friday as a Fast is intended to be the weekly memorial of the Crucifixion of our Lord just as Sunday is the weekly memorial of the Resurrection. Both are alike obligatory as both are enjoined by the same authority. It is encouraging to note a growing recognition of this Fast and a more general desire to honor weekly the day of our Lord's Crucifixion with a public service in Church and by personal acts of self-denial and devotion on the part of the faithful. (See GOOD FRIDAY, also FASTS, TABLE OF.) Frontal.--The name given to a hanging in front of the Altar. The same as ANTEPENDIUM (which see). {117} Fruits of the Spirit.--(See SPIRIT, FRUITS OF.) Funerals.--The solemn BURIAL OF THE DEAD (which see). In the Church there is no such thing as "Preaching a Funeral," as it is called, but the reverent and devout committal of the "body to the ground," "looking for the General Resurrection in the last day and the life of the world to come, through our Lord Jesus Christ." Plainness and simplicity should mark so holy a function. G Gehenna.--In the original Greek of the New Testament Scriptures there are two words unfortunately translated by our one English word "Hell." The first of these is _Gehenna_, meaning the "place of torment." The second is _Hades_, which also occurs in the original Greek of the Creed, and means the _hidden_, covered, intermediate world where the soul rests between death and the general Resurrection. When, therefore, we confess in the Creed that our Lord "descended into Hell," we do not mean that He entered the "place of torment," but the "place of departed spirits" or _Hades_. This difference of meaning of the word "Hell" as used in our English translation of the Bible and the Creed should be borne in mind.
