Introduction to the Coptic Catechism

Have the liturgies taken anything from holy tradition?

Q87 · Holy Tradition

Tradition is the source of our Church liturgies of Baptism, Eucharist, Marriage, etc. At the same time, these liturgies are themselves tradition at its highest degree of power and sanctity.263 For in their entirety, they sanctify the mystery of Christianity in its perfection. They do not teach us the mystery, but bring us into real relationship with it.
