With these words at the end of the Jubilee of Mercy, Pope Francis encouraged the Church to put Sacred Scripture ever more at the centre of her life and its pastoral activi- ty. Moreover, the Word of God possesses that “dynamism” and is “unpredictable in its power” (Evangelii gaudium, 20:22), able to speak to the heart of man to help him dis- cover and encounter the merciful love of God (Evangelii gaudium, 128). For this reason, in his Apostolic Letter at the conclusion of the Jubilee of Mercy, the Holy Father hoped that “every Christian community, on one Sunday of the liturgical year, could renew its efforts to make the Sacred Scriptures better known and more widely diffused. It would be a Sunday given over entirely to the Word of God, so as to appreciate the inexhaustible riches contained in that constant dialogue between the Lord and his people” (Misericordia e misera, 7). Throughout the world, for years now and with great response from the faithful, a Sunday or a certain time of the year has been dedicated to the Bible: “It is now common for the Christian community to set aside moments to refl ect on the 6 7 WHAT IS THE SUNDAY OF THE WORD OF GOD? SUNDAY OF THE WORD OF GOD great importance of the Word of God for everyday living. Gospels for this Sunday, in all three the liturgical cycles, The various local Churches have undertaken a wealth of speak of the beginning of the ministry and preaching of initiatives to make the Sacred Scripture more accessible to Jesus, the Word made fl esh (Jn 1:14). believers, to increase their gratitude for so great a gift, and to help them to strive daily to embody and bear witness to In every local situation, the most suitable and effective its teachings” (Aperuit illis, 2). Responding to the many ways can be planned to live this Sunday in the best way requests he received, so that the whole Church, with its possible, helping “The People of God grow in religious and great wealth of traditions and local initiatives, can walk intimate familiarity with the Sacred Scriptures. For as the together and in “unity of purpose”, Pope Francis, with the sacred author taught of old: ‘This word is very near to you: Apostolic Letter Aperuit illis, established a Sunday of the it is in your mouth and in your heart for your observance’ liturgical year dedicated to Sacred Scripture in the life of (Dt 30:14)” (Aperuit illis, 15). the Church: the Sunday of the Word of God. Each year the third Sunday in Ordinary Time is to be devoted “to the celebration, study and dissemination of the Word of God” (Aperuit illis, 3). It is no coincidence that the Holy Father chose to sign the Letter on September 30, 2019, the liturgical memorial of St. Jerome, which marks the 1600th anniversary of the death of this important translator and commentator of Scripture, to which we owe the expression: “Ignorance of the Scriptures is ignorance of Christ”. Sacred Scripture has always been a bridge for dialogue and an important bond with other Christian denominations and with other religions. It is signifi cant, from this point of view, that the Sunday of the Word of God has been chosen to take place at a time in which the Church celebrates the Day of dialogue between Jews and Catholics and the Week of Christian Unity, giving it great ecumenical value and communion (Aperuit illis, 3). Among other things, the 8 9 THE WORD OF GOD IN THE LITURGICAL CELEBRATION “The Church has always venerated the divine Scriptures just as she venerates the body of the Lord, since, especially in the sacred liturgy, she unceasingly receives and offers to the faithful the bread of life from the table both of God’s word and of Christ’s body” (Dei Verbum, 21). When we proclaim the Word, we carry out an ecclesial act: we do not do anything on our own, but participate in the mission of the Church, of which we are part. “The Bible cannot be just the heritage of some, much less a collection of books for the benefi t of a privileged few. It belongs above all to those called to hear its message and to recognize themselves in its words” (Aperuit illis, 4). It is important to understand the various elements and gestures that are directed towards the Word of God in the liturgical celebration in order to live it to the fullest. 10 11 THE WORD OF GOD IN THE LITURGICAL CELEBRATION SUNDAY OF THE WORD OF GOD I “lThe “places” and the “books” of the Word of God One of the main purposes of the Sunday of the Word of God is to regain familiarity with the Holy Scriptures. In fact, the Christian community is built upon and is recognized by it: “Regular reading of Sacred Scripture and the celebration of the Eucharist make it possible for us to see ourselves as part of one another” (Aperuit illis, 8). For this, it is necessary to inhabit all those “places” in which the Word of God is encountered, and to know the books that bring out its importance within the celebration. The place: the ambo The importance of Sacred Scripture, affi rmed by Vatican II Council, certainly extends to the place where it is proclaimed. The introduction to the Order of the Readings for Mass states that the place of the Word must correspond to its dignity and points to the relationship to the altar. At Mass, it must be clear that the table of the Word of God and of the Body of Christ is prepared. The ambo reminds us of the altar in that the Word proclaimed from the ambo is made “fl esh” on the altar. We can rightly speak of “two tables”: that of the Word and that of the Eucharist. The biblical ancestor of our present-day ambo could be the wooden pulpit that Ezra built for the solemn reading of the Law, for the Feast of Booths around the year 445 BC. In the Book of Nehemiah we read: “And Ezra the scribe stood on a wooden pulpit which they had made for the purpose; and beside him stood and Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people, for he was above all the people; and when he opened it 12 13 LA PAROLA DI DIO NELLA CELEBRAZIONE LITURGICA SUNDAY OF THE WORD OF GOD all the people stood. And Ezra blessed the Lord, the great God; and all the people answered, “Amen, Amen,” lifting up their hands; and they bowed their heads and worshiped the Lord with their faces to the ground” (Ne 8:4-6). Ezra stood on a pulpit, built specifi cally to express the dignity that the Word possesses when it is proclaimed.

  • The Mysteries of Baptism and Chrismation
    The Mysteries of Baptism and Chrismation 1 THE OFFICE FOR RECEIVING THOSE COMING TO THE ORTHODOX CHURCH FROM THE ANGLICAN CONFESSION The Priest shall stand at the doors of the church in epitrachelion and phelonion. And he questions the one converting to the Orthodox faith, saying: Priest: Do you wish to renounce the transgressions and errors of the Anglican Confession? Convert: I do. Priest: Do you wish to enter into union with the Orthodox-Catholic Faith? Convert: I do. Then the Priest blesses him (her), making the sign of the Cross with his right hand, saying: In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. And laying his hand upon the bowed head of the convert, he recites the following prayer: Deacon: Let us pray to the Lord. Choir: Lord, have mercy. Priest: O Lord, God of truth, look down upon Thy servant (handmaiden), N., who seeks to make haste unto Thy Holy Orthodox Church, and to take refuge under her shelter. Turn him (her) from his (her) former error to the path of true faith in Thee, and grant him (her) to walk in all Thy commandments. Let Thine eyes ever look down upon him (her) with mercy, and let Thine ears hearken unto the voice of his (her) supplication, that he (she) may be numbered with Thine elect flock. For all the Powers of Heaven hymn Thee, and Thine is the glory: of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages.

  • Cycle B Lectionary
    FIRST SUNDAY OF ADVENT First Reading: Isaiah 63:16-17, 64:1-8 A reading from the book of the prophet Isaiah. You, YHWH , are our mother and father; “Our Redeemer Forever” is your name. YHWH , why do you let us wander from your ways and let our hearts grow too hard to revere you? Return to us for the sake of your children, the tribes of your heritage! Oh, that you would rend the heavens and come down, that the mountains would shake before you! As fire kindles the brushwood and the fire makes water boil, make your Name known to your adversaries, and let the nations tremble before you! When you did awesome things that we could not have expected, you came down, and the mountains quaked in your presence! From ages past no ear has ever heard, no eye ever seen any God but you intervening for those who wait for you! Oh, that you would find us doing right, that we would be mindful of you in our ways! You are angry because we are sinful; we sinned for so long — how can we be saved? All of us became unclean and soiled, even our good deeds are polluted. We have all withered like leaves, and our guilt carries us away like the wind. No one calls upon your Name, there are none who cling to you, for you hid your face from us and delivered us into the hands of our sins. Yet, you are our mother and father, YHWH ; we are the clay and you are the potter, we are all the work of your hands.

  • Noahidism Or B'nai Noah—Sons of Noah—Refers To, Arguably, a Family
    Noahidism or B’nai Noah—sons of Noah—refers to, arguably, a family of watered–down versions of Orthodox Judaism. A majority of Orthodox Jews, and most members of the broad spectrum of Jewish movements overall, do not proselytize or, borrowing Christian terminology, “evangelize” or “witness.” In the U.S., an even larger number of Jews, as with this writer’s own family of orientation or origin, never affiliated with any Jewish movement. Noahidism may have given some groups of Orthodox Jews a method, arguably an excuse, to bypass the custom of nonconversion. Those Orthodox Jews are, in any event, simply breaking with convention, not with a scriptural ordinance. Although Noahidism is based ,MP3], Tạləmūḏ]תַּלְמּוד ,upon the Talmud (Hebrew “instruction”), not the Bible, the text itself does not explicitly call for a Noahidism per se. Numerous commandments supposedly mandated for the sons of Noah or heathen are considered within the context of a rabbinical conversation. Two only partially overlapping enumerations of seven “precepts” are provided. Furthermore, additional precepts, not incorporated into either list, are mentioned. The frequently referenced “seven laws of the sons of Noah” are, therefore, misleading and, indeed, arithmetically incorrect. By my count, precisely a dozen are specified. Although I, honestly, fail to understand why individuals would self–identify with a faith which labels them as “heathen,” that is their business, not mine. The translations will follow a series of quotations pertinent to this monotheistic and ,MP3], tạləmūḏiy]תַּלְמּודִ י ,talmudic (Hebrew “instructive”) new religious movement (NRM). Indeed, the first passage quoted below was excerpted from the translated source text for Noahidism: Our Rabbis taught: [Any man that curseth his God, shall bear his sin.

Her concerns seemed less arcane, her presentation more appealingly worked out; as Guy Scarpetta put it in he Nouvel Observateur (May 19, 1980), she now intro- duced into "theoretical rigor an effective measure of seduction." Actually, no sudden change has taken place: the features that are noticeable in Powers of Horror were already in evidence in several earlier essays, some of which have been translated in Desire in Language (Columbia University Press, 1980).

WORSHIP Sixth Eothinon/Tone Plagal Second We are so very glad you have joined us today, and we pray you will be inspired and encouraged by your time with us. The Orthodox worship service is an ancient and timeless expression of how people have loved, served and worshipped God for many centuries, but it may be a bit of a different experience for you. Please feel free to use a service book or not and simply allow the words of the service to wash over you. The central act of our worship culminates in people receiving communion. This is a very special time for us all and we have some specific beliefs about our com- munion together. This is why we never impose this service on those who are not pre- pared or are not baptized Orthodox. This service may raise questions in your mind. Please feel free to ask Fr. Barnabas or Fr. Paul anything you wish after the service. At the end of the service EVERYONE is invited to come forward and receive a portion of the “blessed bread” from Fr. Barnabas. No one should leave church “hungry!” Know you are welcome and we are glad you are here. May God bless you and your family. Apolytikion in honor of Sts.

Ove godine se navršila 35. godišnjica osnutka prvoga kon­ centracionog logora u Zapadnoj Evropi, koji je zatim postao simbolom okrutnosti i nasilja, užasa i patnje, tiranije i ropstva. I to u punom XX stoljeću! (Napominjem odmah na početku: Dachau ipak nije bio najgori nje­ mački logor. To znam iz vlastitog iskustva, jer sam proživio tri razna nacistička logora. Jednako tvrde i svi drugovi koji su bili razasuti po raznim logorima Reicha te imali prigodu da uspoređuju. No jer je Dachau bdio prvi njemački logior, ostalo je najpoznatijim logorom i postao simbo­ lom novovjekovnog ropstva). LOGOR DACHAU Po naredbi Hi nil era (koji je tada bio još samo šef policije u Mün- chenu) logor Dachau je službeno otvoren dne 22. ožujka 1933. U prvo vrijeme nalazio se u jednoj napuštenoj tvornici oružja posred dachauske močvare, blizu gradića Dachau (15 km sjeverozapadno od glavnoga grada Bavarske, Münchena). Bio je predviđen za 5.000 zatvorenika, ali naci­ stička revnost i okrutnost brzo je premašila sve Himlerove prognoze.^ Logor se prenaglo punio »neprijateljima III Reicha«, pa se već g. 1938. pi istupilo njegovu proširenju. Samo po službenim nacističkim registrima od 1933. do 1945. kroz Dachau je prošlo više od 206.000 robijaša.2 A ko­ liki su otišli (osobito Židovi) neregistrirani na drugi svijet, to sam Bog znade ! U Dachauu su bile zastupane mnoge narodnosti (gotovo sve evrop­ ske), no najviše je bilo Rusa, Pioljaka i Nijemaca.
