(14th-Sept-2008) The Triumph of the Holy Cross, Year A

The Son of Man must be lifted up.
This reading comprises part of the caput below. The prescribed reading starts halfway through the seventh paragraph thereof, and continues to the tenth of the fourteen. For context however, the reading here starts at verse 9 or paragraph 5. The reading is taken entirely entirely from John.

CXVIIII. De Nicodemo qui venit ad Ihesum noctæ.
(Of Nicodemus who comes to Jesus in the night.)

119: 5
Nicodemus answered and said to him: How can these things be done?
6
Jesus answered and said to him: Art thou a master in Israel, and knowest not these things? Indeed, indeed, I say to thee that we speak what we know and we testify what we have seen: and you receive not our testimony.
7
If I have spoken to you earthly things, and you believe not: how, if I shall speak to you heavenly things, will you believe?
And no man hath ascended into heaven, but he that descended from heaven, the Son of man who is in heaven.
8
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert, so must the Son of man be lifted up, that whosoever believeth in him may not perish, but may have life everlasting.
9
For God so loved the world, as to give his only acknowledged Son: that whosoever believeth in him may not perish, but may have life everlasting.
10
For God sent not his Son into the world, to judge the world: but that the world may be saved by him.
