Smooth translation

The (Official) Date of the Holy and Great Sunday of Easter, that is, the glorious Resurection of the Lord. Being made (determined) by the Holy Father John of Damascus. Author the monk Kalinikos 1865

The hand of the monk Kallinikos 1865 from Mt. Athos Xeropotamou monastery

Then compared to Sirach writing

Rule of the holy and great Sunday of Easter

Namely of the glorious Resurrection. Of the Lord.
Poem about our holy father John of Damascene
Hand of the monk Kallinikou 1865


we got another response from panteleimon.

Hand Χειρε looks like it was added as an afterthought or by convention. it is not in the flow of the title
see how it is above the primary text

Goes backwards to June 4, 2024

it follows Hand so it would be "the hand of Kallinikos the monk"
on our title page we would write
The title of the book
by
the author
same thing
