Phiro d’Kohnutho THE FRUIT OF PRIESTHOOD The Skull Cap of the Syrian Priesthood

During the ordination of a priest his skull cap is blessed with the rest of his priestly vestments, and after he is vested the ordaining bishop ceremoniously places the skull cap over his head as the external sign of his holy priesthood. Hence it is called the fruit of priesthood (Phiro d’Kohnutho).
