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.

  • David Trobisch and David Parker on the Origin of the New Testament, the Historical Jesus, and How Manuscripts Can Reveal What Texts Conceal
    David Trobisch and David Parker on the Origin of the New Testament, the Historical Jesus, and How Manuscripts Can Reveal What Texts Conceal Tom Dykstra I grew up with a picture of Paul traveling through Asia and Europe, founding congregations, counseling and teaching the men and women who had given their life to Jesus. If he could not visit them, he sent letters. When Paul died, his letters were kept as treasures. Each church that had received one of his letters saved it, had it read during worship services, and exchanged copies of the letter with other congregations close by. Later the congregations tried to complete their collection. But this view does not match the uniformity of manuscript evidence. 1 --David Trobisch It is even more remarkable that attempts to reconstruct the supposed document 'Q' (the lost collection used by both Matthew and Luke postulated by those who argue that Matthew and Luke are independent) use text-critical terminology to describe their activities. However, since all they are doing is making selections from a twentieth-century printed text, which does not even presume to provide confidently the text of the four-Gospel collection, never mind that of the independent first-century texts, this use of language must be dismissed as illusory. 2 --David Parker Modern scholarship has produced detailed biographies of Paul, massive multi-volume inquiries into “the historical Jesus,” and mountains of exegetical literature that claims to extract the author’s meaning from each word of each New Testament book. Typically, this literature analyzes the scriptural texts with little reference to actual manuscripts.

  • Requiem Eucharist for the Commemoration of the Faithful Departed for All Souls’ Sunday 1 November 2020 3.00 Pm Welcome to St Edmundsbury Cathedral
    Requiem Eucharist for the Commemoration of the Faithful Departed for All Souls’ Sunday 1 November 2020 3.00 pm Welcome to St Edmundsbury Cathedral In this afternoon’s All Souls’ Service we remember with thanksgiving the people we love who have died. The Commemoration of the departed on All Souls’ Day celebrates the saints in a more intimate way than All Saints’ Day. It allows us to remember with thanksgiving before God those whom we have known directly: those who gave us life, or who supported and encouraged us on life’s journey or who nurtured us in faith. In our worship, we sense that it is a fearful thing to come before the unutterable goodness and holiness of God, even for those who are redeemed in Christ; that it is searing as well as life-giving to experience God’s mercy. This instinct is expressed in the liturgy of All Souls’ Day. During this service, everyone is invited to bring the names of loved ones departed, written on the small white card crosses, to the cross before the altar, and to light a prayer candle there. Names will not be read aloud so that the total focus of this part of the liturgy may be on silent prayer and our individual commendation to God of those whom we remember but see no more.

  • Acolyte Manual
    ACOLYTE INSTRUCTIONS Welcome to the Ministry of Acolytes, as you are an important part of the Sunday morning worship services at St. Paul’s. The word acolyte means “one who serves,” and our responsibility is to serve God and the church and to assist the clergy during the worship service. It is a wonderful way to learn about our liturgy and music in the Episcopal Church, and to see what happens ‘behind the scenes’ at during liturgy at St. Paul’s. Gracious God, you call us to be bearers of your light in the world. Grant to your acolytes reverent hearts, steady hands, and the will to persevere in service at your altar and at prayer. Bless and guide us by your wisdom and help us to spread your word throughout the world. Through Jesus Christ our lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God now and forever. Amen. General Guidelines and Expectations • There are four/five adult acolyte team leaders who each have a team of youth assigned, and who are responsible for scheduling and communicating with and managing their team. • Generally, the acolyte ministry begins when youth are in the eighth grade, but any youth, eighth grade through twelfth grade are welcome to join. • When scheduled to serve, please arrive thirty minutes before the start of the service to allow enough time to vest and check in with the team leader for assignment of responsibilities for the service. • Wear leather dress or deck shoes (no tennis shoes). • Sandals are fine but be aware that there are a lot of steps in the altar area (no flip flops or sandals that flap against your feet).

  • Distinguishing Features of the Dobrejšo Gospel's Book
    DISTINGUISHING FEATURES OF THE DOBREJŠO GOSPEL’S BOOK OF MATTHEW Cynthia M. Vakareliyska This paper offers a preliminary list of distinguishing features for the version of Matthew in the Dobrejšo Gospel (D), a liturgical tetraevangelion from western Bulgaria datable most likely to the thirteenth century and reflecting an early Ohrid tradition.1 Together D and the fourteenthcentury Curzon Gospel (C) and Banica Gospel (B),2 which are also liturgical tetraevangelia from western Bulgaria, comprise the only family of closely related Bulgarian gospel manuscripts identified so far. The following is a crude stemma of the relationships among D, B, and C, their hypothetical shared ancestor (DBC), and the hypothetical later shared antigraph for C and B (CB): While all three manuscripts reflect the DBC source for Mark, Luke, and John, none of the three manuscripts contains the complete DBC version of Matthew. This circumstance makes identification of D’s distinguishing features in Matthew highly problematic. B's entire Matthew version must be disregarded, as B substitutes a textual 1 Issues involved in the classification of D as western Bulgarian vs. Macedonian are discussed in Vakareliyska 2010. For distinguishing features of D’s version of Mark, Luke, and John, see Vakareliyska (2011). 2 This preliminary corpus, which was used for comparison with C in Vakareliyska 2008, is currently being augmented with manuscripts from the South and East Slavonic long lectionary traditions in preparation of an annotated edition of D. © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, ���6 | doi �0.��63/97890043�3675_0�� 258 CYNTHIA M.
