Matin Responsory Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (1525-1594) I look from afar: and lo, I see the power of God coming, and a cloud covering the whole earth. Go ye out to meet him and say: Tell us, art thou he that should come to reign over thy people Israel? High and low, rich and poor, one with another, Go ye out to meet him and say: Hear, O thou Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a sheep, Tell us, art thou he that should come? Stir up thy strength, O Lord, and come to reign over thy people Israel. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. LIGHTING OF THE ADVENT WREATH As the third candle of the Advent Wreath is lit, the following prayer is said by all, standing. Celebrant and People: Holy and Gracious God, we give you thanks for the promise of Joy. As we anticipate and prepare for Joy being born in the world, may we be ever -mindful of all the places in our lives, and those of others, where there seems to be little Joy and thus, may its presence be especially felt. Joyful, Joyful we adore Thee today and evermore. Amen. THE COLLECT OF THE DAY Officiant: The Lord be with you. People: And also with you. Officiant: Let us pray. Officiant: Stir up your power, O Lord, and with great might come among us; and, because we are sorely hindered by our sins, let your bountiful grace and mercy speedily help and deliver us; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom, with you and the Holy Spirit, be honor and glory, now and for ever. People: Amen. 2 PROCESSIONAL CAROL 102 Once in royal David’s city Stanza 1, sung by a Cantor. Stanza 2, sung by choir. Stanzas 3-6, sung by all. Copyright: Reprinted under Onelicense.net # A-701275. 3 THE BIDDING PRAYER The Rev. W. Bruce McPherson Please remain standing. Officiant: Dear People of God: In the season of Advent, it is our responsibility and joy to prepare ourselves to hear once more the message of the Angels, to go to Bethlehem and see the Son of God lying in a manger. Let us hear and heed in Holy Scripture the story of God’s loving purpose from the time of our rebellion against him until the glorious redemption brought to us by his holy Child Jesus, and let us look forward to the yearly remembrance of his birth with hymns and songs of praise. But first, let us pray for the needs of his whole world, for peace and justice on earth, for the unity and mission of the Church for which he died, and especially for his Church in our country and in this city. And because he particularly loves them, let us remember in his name the poor and helpless, the cold, the hungry and the oppressed, the sick and those who mourn, the lonely and unloved, the aged and little children, as well as all those who do not know and love the Lord Jesus Christ. Finally, let us remember before God his pure and lowly Mother, and that whole multitude which no one can number, whose hope was in the Word made flesh, and with whom, in Jesus, we are one for evermore. The Almighty God bless us with his grace; Christ give us the joys of everlasting life; and to the fellowship of the citizens above may the King of Angels bring us all. Amen. LESSON 1 The First Sin and Its Punishment Genesis 3:8-15, 17-19 Please be seated. Read by Nkem Onwuamaegbu. They heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden at the time of the evening breeze, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden. But the LORD God called to the man, and said to him, “Where are you?” He said, “I heard the sound of you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.” He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?” The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate.” Then the LORD God said to the woman, “What is this that you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent tricked me, and I ate.” The LORD God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, cursed are you among all animals and among all wild creatures; upon your belly you shall go, and dust you shall eat all the days of your life. I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will strike your head, and you will strike his heel.” And to the man he said, “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten of the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You shall not eat of it,’ cursed is the ground because of you; in toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life; thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you; and you shall eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; you are dust, and to dust you shall return.” Leader: The Word of the Lord. People: Thanks be to God. 4 CAROL Adam lay ybounden Carson P. Cooman (b. 1982) Middle English: Modern English: Adam lay ibounden, bound in a bond, Adam was bound in sin for four thousand For thousand winter thought he years, although he thought this not too long. not too long. And all was for an appil, It was all for an apple An appil that he tok, that he took, As clerkès finden written in their book. As clerics found written in their books. Ne had the appil takè been, Had the apple never The appil takè been, been taken, Ne haddè never our lady Then our Lady would have A ben hevenè queen. Never been a heavenly queen. Blessed be the time Blessed be the time That appil takè was. The apple was taken. Therefore we moun singen, Therefore we must sing Deo Gracias! Deo Gracias! Thanks be to God! –Anon. 15th Century Medieval Carol. LESSON 2 The Righteous Reign of the Coming King Isaiah 40:1-11 Read by Jessica Sanchez. Comfort, O comfort my people, says your God. Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and cry to her that she has served her term, that her penalty is paid, that she has received from the Lord’s hand double for all her sins. A voice cries out: “In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level, and the rough places a plain. Then the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all people shall see it together, for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.” A voice says, “Cry out!” And I said, “What shall I cry?” All people are grass, their constancy is like the flower of the field. The grass withers, the flower fades, when the breath of the Lord blows upon it; surely the people are grass. The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God will stand forever. Get you up to a high mountain, O Zion, herald of good tidings; lift up your voice with strength, O Jerusalem, herald of good tidings, lift it up, do not fear; say to the cities of Judah, “Here is your God!” See, the Lord God comes with might, and his arm rules for him; his reward is with him, and his recompense before him. He will feed his flock like a shepherd; he will gather the lambs in his arms, and carry them in his bosom, and gently lead the mother sheep. Leader: The Word of the Lord. People: Thanks be to God. 5 CONGREGATIONAL CAROL 67 Comfort, comfort ye my people Please stand. Words: Johann G. Olearius (1611-1684); tr. Catherine Winkworth (1827-1878), alt.

LESSON 3 The prophet proclaims that God will come and save us Isaiah 35:1-10 Please be seated. Read by Paul Barkett. The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad, the desert shall rejoice and blossom; like the crocus it shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice with joy and singing. The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, the majesty of Carmel and Sharon. They shall see the glory of the Lord, the majesty of our God. Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees.

Jahrhunderts * Nigel F. Palmer ‘Turning many to righteousness’ Religious didacticism in the ›Speculum humanae salvationis‹ and the similitude of the oak tree The ›Speculum humanae salvationis‹ is an elaborate religious and didactic text, made up of words and pictures in combination.1 It is generally held to have been composed in the earlier part of the fourteenth century, and in an ideal copy it consists of 4924 lines of rhyming Latin prose, preceded by a Summarium, together with 192 miniatures. It is well known to modern scholarship as the most widely circulated typological text from the Middle Ages, and chapters 3–42 present a sequence of New Testament events, ‘anti- types’, each of which is shown to have been foreshadowed by three figurae, ‘types’ or similitudes, mostly taken from the Old Testament. Chapters 1–2, with 8 pictures, take us from the Fall of Lucifer and the Creation of Adam and Eve to the Flood. Chapters 3–42, with 160 pictures, take us from the ___________________________________ 1 Speculum humanae salvationis. Texte critique. Traduction inédite de Jean Miélot (1448).

This year many of us have already experienced the loss of a friend, relative, or colleague. Surrounded by sadness, and anxiety about our health and the future ahead of us, many people are also experiencing the pain of bereavement, often made more painful by distance, the lack of opportunity to visit, or by the suddenness of a death. My personal loss has been of my dear friend Asha, the founder and director of Saakshar, the charity I have supported for the last seventeen years in Delhi. Twelve years ago, while a College Chaplain in Oxford, I asked my boss for a sabbatical, and he said, ‘No’. But he did offer to find the 2 money to cover a project of my choice, so long as it would fit into the university’s Easter holiday. I had been supporting Saakshar’s work in Delhi for five years by then, yet had never been to see them, so I decided to use the month around Easter 2009 to visit Saakshar, to interview and photograph the people and children involved and then use the images and information to gain support for Saakshar’s work with the education of slum children in Delhi - preparing them for school, signing them up for school (as their parents were unable to read and write) and then helping them with their studies so that they did not drop out.

  • Franciscan Crown Rosary
    FRANCISCAN CROWN ROSARY (THE SEVEN JOYS OF THE VIRGIN) Viceroyalty of New Spain (Oaxaca, Mexico), XVIII century Franciscan Crown Rosary (The Seven Joys of the Virgin) Viceroyalty of New Spain (Oaxaca, Mexico), XVIII century Gold, jet, and enamel Weight: 282 g (0.62 lb) Maximum length: 125 cm (49.21 in); Maximum width: 12 cm (4.72 in) The devotional practice consisting in repeating certain prayers in groups of sections that are organized in regulated number and order derives from Eastern religions, based on the idea that repeating a prayer increases its effectiveness, and has been brought to the Western world by the expansion of the Muslim Empire. In order to make it easier, closed strings of beads have been used to avoid losing them and to help complete the prayer, such as the Islamic tasbih, the Hindu and Buddhist Japamala, or the Catholic rosary or crown. In Spain and its historical, eminently Catholic territories, the use of the rosary has been universal and constant over time, until it has become one of its marks of cultural identity. Countess d'Aulnoy, on her celebrated work Un viaje por España en 1679, testified to“the constant use of the rosary here. Every lady has one attached to her waist, which is so long that it is almost dragged along the ground. They pray while walking down the street, when they play ombre, when they talk, and even when they fall in love, murmur, or lie, they pray and move their fingers from one rosary bead to another”. Even Mariana of Austria, King Charles II's mother, during the hearing that was granted to her in the Alcázar of Madrid, received the French lady carrying a large rosary in her hands.

  • The Małopolska Way of St James (Sandomierz–Więcławice Stare– Cracow–Szczyrk) Guide Book
    THE BROTHERHOOD OF ST JAMES IN WIĘCŁAWICE STARE THE MAŁOPOLSKA WAY OF ST JAMES (SANDOMIERZ–WIĘCŁAWICE STARE– CRACOW–SZCZYRK) GUIDE BOOK Kazimiera Orzechowska-Kowalska Franciszek Mróz Cracow 2016 1 The founding of the pilgrimage centre in Santiago de Compostela ‘The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you”’ (Gen 12:1). And just like Abraham, every Christian who is a guest in this land journeys throughout his life towards God in ‘Heavenly Jerusalem’. The tradition of going on pilgrimages is part of a European cultural heritage inseparably connected with the Christian religion and particular holy places: Jerusalem, Rome, and Santiago de Compostela, where the relics of St James the Greater are worshipped. The Way of St James began almost two thousand years ago on the banks of the Sea of Galilee (Lake Tiberias). As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. ‘Come, follow me,’ Jesus said, ‘and I will send you out to fish for people’. At once they left their nets and followed him. Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat with their father Zebedee, preparing their nets. Jesus called them, and immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him. (Matthew 4:18‒22) Mortal St James The painting in Basilica in Pelplin 2 The path of James the Apostle with Jesus began at that point.

    Issue 83: Mary in the Imagination of the Church Mary: Did You Know? The Seven Joys of Mary Chris Armstrong Spot the seven Hans Memling (ca. 1435 -1494) was a Flemish master painter who studied under Rogier van der Weyden (pp. 22-23). His "Seven Joys of the Virgin" depicts a series of Marian moments drawn (like the Rosary; see p. 30) from medieval devotions to Mary. Her seven joys are the Annunciation, the Nativity, the Adoration of the Magi, the Resurrected Christ's appearance to Mary, Christ's Ascension, Pentecost, and Mary's own (as tradition had it) bodily Assumption into heaven. Free will's shining moment Jaroslav Pelikan reminds us that the Annunciation to Mary can be seen as God's ultimate validation of free will. Mary's obedience to the angel's message "was no less voluntary in its affirmation than the disobedience of Eve had been in its negation." (Mary Through the Centuries, p. 87) O holy night As have Protestants since his day, Martin Luther affirmed the Ephesus Council's formula that stated Mary was truly the "mother of God": "God did not derive his divinity from Mary; but it does not follow that it is therefore wrong to say that God was born of Mary. … She is the true mother of God. … Mary suckled God, rocked God to sleep, prepared broth and soup for God, etc." (On the Councils and the Church, 1539) The Magi and the Mama Christian literature's most ancient hymn to Mary, the so-called "Akathist" hymn (late 5th or early 6th century), makes Mary one focus of the Magi's praise: "The children of the Chaldees seeing in the Virgin's hands him whose hands made men, and knowing him as Lord … cried out to her who is blessed: Hail! Mother of the unsetting Star.

  • Iconography 1 Iconography
    Iconography 1 Iconography Iconography is the branch of art history which studies the identification, description, and the interpretation of the content of images. The word iconography literally means "image writing", and comes from the Greek εἰκών "image" and γράφειν "to write". A secondary meaning is the painting of icons in the Byzantine and Orthodox Christian tradition. Still in art history, an iconography may also mean a particular depiction of a subject in terms of the content of the image, such as the number of figures used, their placing and gestures. The term is also used in many academic fields other than art history, for example semiotics and media studies, and in general usage, for the content of images, the typical depiction in images of a subject, and related senses. Sometimes distinctions have been made between Holbein's The Ambassadors is a complex work Iconology and Iconography, although the definitions and so the whose iconography remains the subject of debate distinction made varies. Iconography as a field of study Foundations of iconography Early Western writers who took special note of the content of images include Giorgio Vasari, whose Ragionamenti, interpreting the paintings in the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, reassuringly demonstrates that such works were difficult to understand even for well-informed contemporaries. Gian Pietro Bellori, a 17th century biographer of artists of his own time, describes and analyses, not always correctly, many works. Lessing's study (1796) of the classical figure Amor with an inverted torch was an early attempt to use a study of a type of image to explain the culture it originated in, rather than the other way round.[1] Iconography as an academic art historical discipline developed in the nineteenth-century in the works of scholars such as Adolphe Napoleon Didron (1806–1867), Anton Heinrich Springer (1825–1891), and Émile Mâle (1862–1954)[3] all specialists in Christian religious art, which was the main focus of study in this period, in which French [1] scholars were especially prominent.

Hamburger ypology—a retrospective mode of reading that sees in Old Testament events the prophetic foreshadowing of signal moments in the life Tof Christ—by defnition involves the reconfguration of history.1 History, rather than being read as an open-ended line or, as ofen was the case, as a circle that revolves back to its point of origin (as in competing modern theories of the history of the universe), was seen as something of a house of mirrors, in which virtually every event following the center point, namely, the birth of Christ, could be viewed as refecting, yet, at the same time, revealing the full meaning of all that had come before. Typology, or, to use a medieval term, fgural speech, entailed systematic prefguration. It also inherently lent itself to visualization, not only because of its rhetoric of type and antitype or foreshadowing and illumination, all cast in terms of the dynamics of revelation, but also, no less, because images, forbidden by the strictest interpretations of Jewish law, represented the embodiment of incarnational theology.
