  • The Divine Office
    THE DIVINE OFFICE BRO. EMMANUEL NUGENT, 0. P. PIRITUAL life must be supplied by spiritual energy. An efficient source of spiritual energy is prayer. From Holy Scripture we learn that we should pray always. li In general, this signifies that whatever we do should be done for the honor and glory of God. In a more restricted sense, it requires that each day be so divided that at stated in­ tervals we offer to God acts of prayer. From a very early period it has been the custom of the Church, following rather closely the custom that prevailed among the Chosen People, and later among the Apostles and early Christians, to arrange the time for her public or official prayer as follows: Matins and Lauds (during the night), Prime (6 A.M.), Tierce (9 A.M.), Sext (12M.), None (3 P.M.), Vespers (6 .P. M.), Compline (nightfall). The Christian day is thus sanc­ tified and regulated and conformed to the verses of the Royal Psalmist: "I arose at midnight to give praise to Thee" (Matins), "Seven times a day have I given praise to Thee"1 (Lauds and the remaining hours). Each of the above divisions of the Divine Office is called, in liturgical language, an hour, conforming to the Roman and Jewish third, sixth, and ninth hour, etc. It is from this division of the day that the names are given to the various groups of prayers or hours recited daily by the priest when he reads his breviary. It is from the same source that has come the name of the service known to the laity as Sunday Vespers, and which constitutes only a portion of the Divine Office for that day.

    THE RITES OF HOLY WEEK • CEREMONIES • PREPARATIONS • MUSIC • COMMENTARY By FREDERICK R. McMANUS Priest of the Archdiocese of Boston 1956 SAINT ANTHONY GUILD PRESS PATERSON, NEW JERSEY Copyright, 1956, by Frederick R. McManus Nihil obstat ALFRED R. JULIEN, J.C. D. Censor Lib1·or111n Imprimatur t RICHARD J. CUSHING A1·chbishop of Boston Boston, February 16, 1956 PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA INTRODUCTION ANCTITY is the purpose of the "new Holy Week." The news S accounts have been concerned with the radical changes, the upset of traditional practices, and the technical details of the re­ stored Holy Week services, but the real issue in the reform is the development of true holiness in the members of Christ's Church. This is the expectation of Pope Pius XII, as expressed personally by him. It is insisted upon repeatedly in the official language of the new laws - the goal is simple: that the faithful may take part in the most sacred week of the year "more easily, more devoutly, and more fruitfully." Certainly the changes now commanded ,by the Apostolic See are extraordinary, particularly since they come after nearly four centuries of little liturgical development. This is especially true of the different times set for the principal services. On Holy Thursday the solemn evening Mass now becomes a clearer and more evident memorial of the Last Supper of the Lord on the night before He suffered. On Good Friday, when Holy Mass is not offered, the liturgical service is placed at three o'clock in the afternoon, or later, since three o'clock is the "ninth hour" of the Gospel accounts of our Lord's Crucifixion.

  • The Office of Tenebrae
    The Office of Tenebrae G. Dore, The Darkness at the Crucifixion, 1867 The Third Nocturn of Tenebrae & The Office of Lauds Wednesday in Holy Week April 8, 2020 Concerning Tenebrae Tenebrae is a service of evening prayer for Holy Week. Originally observed on the three days before Easter Sunday, Tenebrae is now celebrated at various times during Holy Week. Unlike other services this week, Tenebrae does not commemorate a specific event in the final days of Christ. Rather, through the use of Psalms, canticles, lessons, and the ceremonial extinguishing of candles on the hearse (a 15-candle candelabra). Tenebrae invites us to enter more deeply into the contemplation of Christ’s final days, his abandonment, his suffering, his death, and, ultimately, his resurrection. Through Tenebrae, we are given an opportunity to meditate on the truth that Jesus truly was Emmanuel, “God with us,” and that like us, Jesus faced the same emotional challenges that can bring us down. In the words of the wonderful Christmas hymn, “...tears and smiles like us he knew. Thus he feels for all our sadness, and he shares in all our gladness.” The great message of Tenebrae is that though the darkness of sin may appear victorious, the light of Christ cannot be extinguished. Liturgical Ministers The Reverend James M.L. Grace, Rector The Reverend Bradley Varnell, Curate The Reverend Canon Joann Saylors, Canon for Mission Amplification John Kirk, Director of Music & Organist Megan Parks, Cantor 2 On this day the Ministers enter in silence. Psalm 54 Deus, in nominee The psalm will be chanted by the cantor.

  • Tenebrae Guide
    AN INTRODUCTION TO TENEBRAE The traditional Roman Catholic Tenebrae (Latin meaning darkness) was a celebration, after dark on the evenings of Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of Holy Week, of a combination of the next day's Matins (composed of 3 nocturns each day) and Lauds, the first two hours of the Divine Office. The readings of each day's first nocturn were taken from the Book of Lamenta- tions. Each day's office of Tenebrae contained 15 psalms, 9 readings, and one canticle, the Bene- dictus (Song of Zechariah). Lighting was gradually reduced throughout the service. Initially 15 candles were lit and placed on a special stand known as a hearse, which were extinguished one by one after each psalm. The last candle was hidden beneath the altar, ending the service in total darkness. In some places the use of a strepitus (Latin for ‘great noise’) was included as part of the service. The great noise was usually generated by slamming a book closed, banging a hymnal or breviary against the pew, or stomping on the floor, symbolizing the earthquake that followed Christ's death. This custom seems to have originated as a simple signal to depart in silence. Fol- lowing the great noise a single candle, which had been hidden from view, was returned to the top of the hearse, signifying the return of Christ to the world with the Resurrection. The lessons of the second nocturn were taken from the writings of St. Augustine and St. Leo the Great, and the lessons of the third nocturn from the epistles of Paul the Apostle.

  • A Liturgy of the Hours for Holy Week Starting with Palm Sunday Compline
    A Liturgy of the Hours for Holy Week Morning Prayer (Lauds) Noon Prayer (Sext) Night Prayer (Compline) Starting with Palm Sunday Compline Introduction In the early church, Christians prayed the Psalms every three hours through-out the day and night. This became known as the Liturgy of the Hours, or Divine Office. Each time of prayer was named in Latin: Matins, Lauds, Prime, Terce, Sext, None, Vespers, and Compline. Lauds was prayed at dawn, Sext was the “6th” hour after sunrise (Noon), and Compline was the last prayer of the night. (It was the shortest prayer, with little variation, so it could be memorized). The complete Office, all eight Hours for the entire church year, is published in four volumes. Monasteries through-out the world and increasing numbers of laypeople use this structure for daily prayer. Some monasteries still rise at 3am and do the full cycle of eight Hours—but most only gather for morning, noon, and evening prayer. This Liturgy of the Hours is a shortened form of the traditional prayers, with many original additions and scripture choices. The first part of the week focuses on God seeking us, the second part of the week moves into lamentation: our seeking mercy in suffering. The week ends considering the gift Christ gave us through the Cross and looks toward the resurrection. Holy Saturday is the observance of Jesus in the tomb—a quiet day of preparation for Easter. Here are some suggestions for praying: The symbol is the traditional place people cross themselves as a request for God’s blessing.
