Eothina
Does anyone know of a study on the eleven accounts of Christ’s resurrection? (The special sections called Eothina.)
I'm looking for history of use, compilations dates, etc., etc. liturgical use of the readings in general through history and any commentaries? I'm also very interests in the era right at or before 300CE and even more so it's usage before 230CE.

Look on the Reading List for Eothina for a minimal starting point

I suspect the information is hidden in some of the histories of the Liturgy of the Hours. Those in my personal library are skewed towards psalm usage ... and lacks Greek titles so I can't be of further help.

[Y] Pointing me in a direction is better than having no direction. I appreciate your input and insight. I have more to go on that I did 24 hours ago.
Thanks MJ [:)]
Though this isn't directly inline with what I'm looking for but it has peaked my interest as some side reading.

Perhaps someone can clear up a discrepancy.
In one source it states that the Second Eothinon reading is Mark 16:9–20 (Eastern Greek?) and another says that the third Eothinon reading is Mark 16:9–18 .
Is there this sort of wiggle room or have I crossed two tradition streams?

I've seen variation across lectionaries but don't recall the degree to which the difference appeared to be correlated to time or location.
