This Week's Gospel: Luke 24: 13 – 35.
(6th-April-2008) 3rd Sunday of Easter, Year A
They recognised him at the breaking of bread.
This reading corresponds well with the caput given. What is here clear is that the next of Victor’s capita here unnaturally breaks the sequence of the text, so, not having seen the Victor Codex manuscript, and following Sievers’ transcription, I am forced to conclude that the capita were not inserted into the text, but were marginal comments, and their positioning was on occasions a little imprecise. It would make better sense if the caput started two lines later in the text, at 230: 1, on page 333. That is where I end the text here.
The reading is almost entirely from Luke, with only a fraction of a verse from Matthew replacing the first half of the opening verse of this text.
CLXXVI. Ubi Ihesus duobus euntibus in castellum apparuit.
(Where Jesus appeared to two going to a town.)
And after that he appeared in another shape to two of them walking, as they were going this same day, to a town which was one humdred* and sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, named Emmaus.
And they talked together of all these things which had happened. And it came to pass that while they talked and reasoned with themselves,
Jesus himself also, drawing near, went with them, but their eyes were held, that they should not know him.
And he said to them: What are these discourses that you hold one with another as you walk and are sad?
And the one of them, whose name was Cleophas, answering, said to him: Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things that have been done there in these days? He responded: What things?
And they said: Concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet, mighty in work and word before God and all the people, and how our chief priests and princes delivered him to be condemned to death and crucified him.
But we hoped that it was he that should have redeemed Israel. And now besides all this, to-day is the third day since these things were done.
Yea and certain women also of our company affrighted us who, before it was light, were at the sepulchre,
And not finding his body, came, saying that they had all seen a vision of angels, who say that he is alive.
And some of our people went to the sepulchre and found it so as the women had said: but him they found not.
Then he said to them: O foolish and slow of heart to believe in all things, Which the prophets have spoken.
Ought not Christ to have suffered these things and so, to enter into his glory?
And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded to them in all the scriptures the things that were concerning him.
And they drew nigh to the town whither they were going: and he made as though he would go farther.
But they constrained him, saying: Stay with us, because it is towards evening and the day is now far spent. And he went in with them.
And it came to pass, whilst he was at table with them, he took bread and blessed and brake and gave to them.
And their eyes were opened: and they knew him. And he vanished out of their sight.
And they said one to the other: Was not our heart burning within us, whilst he spoke in the way and opened to us the scriptures?
And rising up, the same hour, they went back to Jerusalem: and they found the eleven gathered together, and those that were with them, saying that the Lord is risen indeed and hath appeared to Simon.
And they told what things were done in the way: and how they knew him in the breaking of bread.

This Week's Gospel: John 20: 19 – 31.
(30th-March-2008) 2nd Sunday of Easter, Year A
Eight days later, Jesus came.
This reading corresponds well with the two capita given. What is here clear is that Victor’s caput here unnaturally breaks the sequence of the text, so, not having seen the Victor codex manuscript, and following Sievers’ transcription, I am forced to conclude that the capita were not inserted into the text, but were marginal comments, and their positioning was on occasions a little imprecise. It would make better sense if the caput started two lines later in the text, at 230: 1, on page 333. That is where I start the text here.
The reading is harmonized primarily from John, with considerable input from Luke.
CLXXVII. Ubi Ihesus apparuit discipulis suis.
(Where Jesus appeared to His disciples.)
CLXXVIII. Ubi Ihesus iterum apparuit Thomæ.
(Where Jesus again appears to Thomas.)
229: 3b/ CLXXVII. Ubi Ihesus apparuit discipulis suis.

230: 1
Now, whilst they were speaking these things, when it was late the same day, the first of the week, and the doors were shut, where the disciples were gathered together, for fear of the Judeans,
2
Jesus came and stood in the midst of his disciples and said to them: Peace be to you. It is I: Fear not.
3
But they being troubled and frightened, supposed that they saw a spirit.
4
And he said to them: Why are you troubled, and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?
5
See my hands and feet, that it is I myself. Handle, and see: for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as you see me to have.
6
And when he had said this, he shewed them his hands, feet and his side.
231: 1
But while they yet believed not and wondered for joy, he said:
Have you here any thing to eat?
2
And they offered him a piece of a broiled fish and a honeycomb. And when he had eaten before them, taking the remains, he gave to them.
3
And he said to them: These are the words which I spoke to you while I was yet with you, that all things must needs be fulfilled which are written in the law of Moses and in the prophets and in the psalms, concerning me.
232:1
Then he opened their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures.
2
And he said to them: Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer and to rise again from the dead, the third day, and that penance and remission of sins should be preached in his name, unto all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
3
And you are witnesses of these things, and I send the promise of my Father upon you:
4
The disciples therefore were glad, when they saw the Lord.
5
He said therefore to them again: Peace be to you. As the Father hath sent me, I also send you.
6
When he had said this, he breathed on them; and he said to them:
Receive ye the Holy Ghost: whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven them: and whose sins you shall retain, they are retained.
233: 1/ CLXXVIII. Ubi Ihesus iterum apparuit Thomæ.
Now Thomas, one of the twelve, who is called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.
2
The other disciples therefore said to him: We have seen the Lord.
3
But he said to them: Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails and put my finger into the place of the nails and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.
4
And after eight days, again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them.
5
Jesus cometh, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst and said: Peace be to you.
6
Then he said to Thomas: Put in thy finger hither and see my hands. And bring hither the hand and put it into my side. And be not faithless, but believing.
7
Thomas answered and said to him: My Lord and my God.
8
Jesus saith to him: Because thou hast seen me, Thomas, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen and have believed.
234: 1
Many other signs also did Jesus in the sight of his disciples, which are not written in this book.
2
But these are written, that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God: and that believing, you may have life in his name.

This Week's Gospel: Matt 28: 1 – 10.
(23rd-March-2008) Easter Sunday, Year A
He has risen from the dead and now he is going before you into Galilee.
This reading corresponds well with the caput given..The reading is harmonized primarily from Matthew and John, with consideable input from Luke, and a few verses of Mark.
CLXXIII. Ubi prima diæ sabbati suscitatur Ihesus a mortuis.
(Where on the first day of the week Jesus is raised from the dead.)
And in the end of the Sabbath, when it began to dawn on the first day of the week, when it was yet dark*,
Came Mary Magdalen and the other Mary and Salome to the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared.
And the sun being now risen, they said one to another: Who shall roll us back the stone from the door of the sepulchre? For it was very great.
And behold there was a great earthquake. For an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and coming rolled back the stone.
And looking, they saw the stone rolled back from the sepulchre and an angel seated on it.
And his countenance was as lightning and his raiment as snow.
And for fear of him, the guards were struck with terror and became as dead men.
And the angel answering, said to the women: Fear not you: for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.
He is not here. For he is risen, as he said. Come, and see the place where the Lord was laid.
And it came to pass, as they were astonished in their mind at this.
Behold, two men stood by them, in shining apparel.
And as they were afraid and bowed down their countenance towards the ground, they said unto them: Why seek you the living with the dead? He is not here, but is risen.
Remember how he spoke unto you, when he was yet in Galilee, saying that the Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and the third day rise again.
And going quickly, tell ye his disciples that he is risen from the dead. And behold he will go before you into Galilee. There you shall see him. Lo, I have foretold it to you.
And they remembered his words, and they went out quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy, running to tell his disciples.
She ran therefore and cometh to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved and saith to them: They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre: and I know not where they have laid him.
Peter therefore went out, and the other disciple: and they came to the sepulchre.
And they both ran together: and that other disciple did outrun Peter and came first to the sepulchre.
And when he stooped down, he saw the linen cloths lying: but yet he went not in.
Then cometh Simon Peter, following him, and went into the sepulchre: and saw the linen cloths lying, and the napkin that had been about his head, not lying with the linen cloths, but apart, wrapped up into one place.
Then that other disciple also went in, who came previously to the sepulchre: and he saw and believed: for as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead. The disciples therefore departed again to their home.
But Mary Magdalen; out of whom he had cast seven devils, stood at the sepulchre without, weeping.
Now as she was weeping, a voice saith to her: Woman, why weepest thou? She replied: Because they have taken away my Lord: and I know not where they have laid him.
When she had thus said, she turned herself back and saw Jesus standing: and she knew not that it was Jesus. Jesus saith to her: Woman, why weepest thou? Whom seekest thou?
She, thinking that it was the gardener, saith to him: Sir, if thou hast taken him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him: and I will take him away.
Jesus saith to her: Mary. She turning, saith to him: Rabboni (which is to say, Master).
Jesus saith to her: Do not touch me: for I am not yet ascended to my Father.
But go to my brethren and say to them: I ascend to my Father and to your Father, to my God and to your God.
* This is strange, yet it is plain. It is now the practice among Jews to begin and end the day at sunset, yet here the Sabbath is deemed to end at sunrise. It is known that there were many sectarian disputes concerning the calendar, and here it seems that to play safe, the Sabbath was deemed to run from sunset on Friday to sunrise on Sunday, making the Sabbath a day of 36 hours.

This Week's Gospel: John 11: 1 – 45.
(9th-March-2008) 5th Sunday of Lent, Year A
I am the resurrection and the life.
This reading corresponds with the first 26 paragraphs, and half of the 27th of the caput given. This takes us up to the comma in the heading. The reading is entirely taken from John.
CXXXV. Ubi Ihesus resuscitat Lazarum a mortuis et principes consilium faciunt, ut interficerent Ihesum.
(Where Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead, and the elders make a plan for killing Jesus.)
Now there was a certain man sick, named Lazarus, of Bethania, of the town of Mary and of Martha her sister. And Mary was she that anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair: whose brother Lazarus was sick.
His sisters therefore sent to him, saying: Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick. And Jesus hearing it, said to them: This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God: that the Son of God may be glorified by it.
Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister Mary and Lazarus. When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he still remained in the same place two days.
Then after that, he said to his disciples: Let us go into Judea again. The disciples say to him: Rabbi, the Judeans but now sought to stone thee. And goest thou thither again?
Jesus answered: Are there not twelve hours of the day? If a man walk in the day he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world, but if he walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.
These things he said; and after that he said to them: Lazarus our friend sleepeth: but I go that I may awake him out of sleep. His disciples therefore said: Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.
But Jesus spoke of his death: and they thought that he spoke of the repose of sleep. Then therefore Jesus said to them plainly: Lazarus is dead. And I am glad, for your sakes; that I was not there, that you may believe. But, let us go to him.
Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples: Let us also go, that we may die with him.
Jesus therefore came: and found that he had been four days already in the grave. Now Bethania was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off.
And many of the Judeans were come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.
Martha therefore, as soon as she heard that Jesus was come, went to meet him: but Mary sat at home.
Martha therefore said to Jesus: Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother might not have died: but now also I know that whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, He will give it thee.
Jesus saith to her: Thy brother shall rise again.
Martha saith to him: I know that he shall rise again, in the resurrection at the last day.
Jesus said to her: I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, although he be dead, shall live, and every one that liveth and believeth in me shall not die for ever. Believest thou this?
She saith to him: Yea, Lord, I have believed that thou art Christ, the Son of the living God, who art come into this world.
And when she had said these things, she went and called her sister Mary secretly, saying: The master is come and calleth for thee. She, as soon as she heard this, riseth quickly and cometh to him.
For Jesus was not yet come into the town: but he was still in that place where Martha had met him.
The Judeans therefore, who were with her in the house and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up speedily and went out, followed her, saying: She goeth to the grave to weep there.
When Mary therefore was come where Jesus was, seeing him, she fell down at his feet and saith to him. Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother might not have died.
Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping, and the Judeans that were come with her weeping, groaned in the spirit and troubled himself, And said: Where have you laid him? They say to him: Lord, come and see. And Jesus wept.
The Judeans therefore said: Behold how he loved him. But some of them said: Could not he that opened the eyes of the man born blind have caused that this man should not die?
Jesus therefore again groaning in himself, cometh to the sepulchre. Now it was a cave; and a stone was laid over it.
Jesus saith: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him: Lord, by this time he stinketh, for it is now the fourth day. Jesus saith to her: Did not I say to thee that if thou believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?
They took therefore the stone away. And Jesus lifting up his eyes, said: Father, I give thee thanks that thou hast heard me. And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people who stand about have I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
When he had said these things, he cried with a loud voice: Lazarus, come forth. And presently he that had been dead came forth, bound feet and hands with winding bands. And his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus said to them: Loose him and let him go.
Many therefore of the Judeans, who were come to Mary and had seen the things that Jesus did, believed in him.

This Week's Gospel: John 11: 1 – 45.
(9th-March-2008) 5th Sunday of Lent, Year A
I am the resurrection and the life.
This reading corresponds with the first 26 paragraphs, and half of the 27th of the caput given. This takes us up to the comma in the heading. The reading is entirely taken from John.
CXXXV. Ubi Ihesus resuscitat Lazarum a mortuis et principes consilium faciunt, ut interficerent Ihesum.
(Where Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead, and the elders make a plan for killing Jesus.)
Now there was a certain man sick, named Lazarus, of Bethania, of the town of Mary and of Martha her sister. And Mary was she that anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair: whose brother Lazarus was sick.
His sisters therefore sent to him, saying: Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick. And Jesus hearing it, said to them: This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God: that the Son of God may be glorified by it.
Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister Mary and Lazarus. When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he still remained in the same place two days.
Then after that, he said to his disciples: Let us go into Judea again. The disciples say to him: Rabbi, the Judeans but now sought to stone thee. And goest thou thither again?
Jesus answered: Are there not twelve hours of the day? If a man walk in the day he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world, but if he walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.
These things he said; and after that he said to them: Lazarus our friend sleepeth: but I go that I may awake him out of sleep. His disciples therefore said: Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.
But Jesus spoke of his death: and they thought that he spoke of the repose of sleep. Then therefore Jesus said to them plainly: Lazarus is dead. And I am glad, for your sakes; that I was not there, that you may believe. But, let us go to him.
