This Week's Gospel: Matt 20: 1-16a
(21st-Sept-2008) The 25th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year A
Why be envious because I am generous?
This reading comprises the caput below. The prescribed reading finishes halfway through the last verse, however, the caput includes all of this verse, so for context it is included in its entirety. The reading is taken entirely entirely from Matthew.
CVIIII De patre familias qui exiit primo mane conducere mercenarios in vineam suam.
(Of the householder who went out early in the morning to hire servants into his vineyard.)
109: 1
For the kingdom of heaven is like to a householder, who went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard. And having agreed with the labourers for a penny a day,he sent them into his vineyard. And going out about the third hour, he saw others standing in the marketplace idle. And he said to them: Go you also into the vineyard, and I will give you what shall be just. And they went their way. And again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did in like manner. But about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing, and he saith to them: Why stand you here all the day idle? They say to him: Because no man hath hired us. He saith to them: Go ye also into my vineyard.
2
And when evening was come, the lord of the vineyard saith to his steward: Call the labourers and pay them their hire, beginning from the last even to the first. When therefore they were come that came about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny. But when the first also came, they thought that they should receive more: And they also received every man a penny. And receiving it they murmured against the master of the house, Saying: These last have worked but one hour, and thou hast made them equal to us, that have borne the burden of the day and the heats.
3
Thereupon he answering said to one of them: friend, I do thee no wrong: didst thou not agree with me for a penny? Take what is thine, and go thy way: I will also give to this last even as to thee. Or, is it not lawful for me to do what I will? Is thy perception perverse? because I am right. So shall the last be first and the first last. For many are called but few chosen.

This Week's Gospel: Jn 3: 13 - 17
(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.

This Week's Gospel: Matt 18: 15 - 20
(7th-Sept-2008) The 23rd Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year A
If he listens to you, you have won back your brother.
This reading comprises the majority of the caput below. The prescribed reading ends before the last paragraph thereof, which is here included for completeness. The reading is taken almost entirely from Matthew, with a couple of phrases substituted from Luke.
XCVIII. De remittendo fratribus ex corde.
(Of the forgiving of brothers from the heart.)
98: 1
Take heed to yourselves. If thy brother sin against thee, go, and rebuke him between thee and him alone. If he shall hear thee and he do penance, forgive him, and thou shalt gain thy brother.
2
And if he will not hear thee, take with thee one or two more: that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may stand. And if he will not hear them: tell the church. And if also, he will not hear the church, let him be to thee as the heathen and publican.
3
Indeed I say to you, whatsoever you shall bind upon earth, shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever you shall loose upon earth, shall be loosed also in heaven. Again I say to you, that if two of you shall consent upon earth, concerning anything whatsoever they shall ask, it shall be done to them by my Father who is in heaven. For where there are two or three gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
4
Then came Peter unto him and said: Lord, how often shall my brother offend against me, and I forgive him? until seven times? Jesus saith to him: I would say to thee, not until seven times; but until seventy times seven*.
*‘but until seventy times seven sevens’ – Ancient sources, (incl. Ephraem Syrus), suggest that the word ‘sevens’, missing from later editions should be present. The significance is that the ancient calendar comprised a year of 49 weeks, with 3 or 4 weeks intercalated to keep the year length correct. Only the 49 Sabbaths were considered to be part of the official year. The rite of forgiveness was part of the Sabbath offering, hence 49 times implies every Sabbath in a year, and since the life of man is traditionally 3 score and 10, ie, 70, the number of times you forgive your brother is every week for the whole of his life. The Douay is not imputed here, but rather an omission of an apparent repetition in the Vulgate.

This Week's Gospel: Matt 16: 21 - 27
(31st-Aug-2008) The 22nd Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year A
If anyone wants to be a follower of mine, let him renounce himself.
This reading comprises of the last three paragraphs of the six in the caput below. It completes the reading started last week. The reading is taken almost entirely from Matthew, with one phrase substituted from Mark.
XC. Ubi Ihesus interrogat apostolos: quem me dicunt homines esse? et quæ secuntur, et dicit Petro: scandalum mihi es.
(Where Jesus asks the apostles: Whom do men say of me to be? And what follows, and says to Peter: Thou art a scandal to me.)
90: 4
From that time Jesus began to shew to his disciples, that he must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and scribes and chief priests, and be put to death, and the third day rise again. And Peter taking him, began to rebuke him, saying: Lord, be it far from thee, this shall not be unto thee. He, turning, said to Peter: Go behind me, Satan*, thou art a scandal unto me: because thou savourest not the things that are of God, but the things that are of men.
5
Then calling the multitude together with his disciples, he said to them: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For he that will save his life, shall lose it: and he that shall lose his life for my sake, shall find it. For what doth it profit a man, if he gain the whole world and suffer the loss of his own soul? Or what exchange shall a man give for his soul?
6
For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels: and then will he render to every man according to his works. Indeed I say to you, there are some of them that stand near, that shall not taste death, until they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
*My note: In the Latin of this time, upper case was reserved for proper nouns and initial words of sentences. Satan however, is put in lower case, implying that this might not be a proper noun.
Even names for G_d are in lower case, implying that these too are not proper nouns.
Thus one might read the Latin as:
O adversary, follow me, don’t tempt me, you don’t understand G_d’s plan.

And Jesus came into the quarters of Cæsarea Philippi: and he asked his disciples, saying: Whom do men say that I, the Son of man am? Thereupon they said: Some John the Baptist, and some others Elias, and others Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
2
Jesus saith to them: But whom do you say that I am? Simon Peter answered and said: Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answering said: Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: because flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven.
3
And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven.

(17th-Aug-2008) The 20th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year A
Woman, you have great faith.
This reading comprises of the entirety of the caput below. The reading is taken primarily from Matthew, but with some interweaving from Mark.
LXXXV. De muliere Syrophonissa quæ pro filia sua petebat.
(Of the Syrophenecian woman who petitioned for her daughter.)
85: 1
And rising from thence he went into the coast of Tyre and Sidon.
2
And behold a woman of Canaan a Gentile, a Syrophenician born, crying out, said: Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David: my daughter is grievously troubled by a devil.
3
Jesus though answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying: Send her away, for she crieth after us. And he answering, said: I was not sent but to the sheep, that are lost of the house of Israel.
4
But she came and worshiped him, saying: Lord, help me. But he said: suffer first the children to be filled. Indeed it is not good to take the bread of the children, and to cast it to the dogs. But she said: Yea, Lord; for the whelps also eat of the crumbs that fall from the table of their master*. And then he said to her: O woman, great is thy faith: be it done to thee as thou wilt: and her daughter was cured from that hour.
*Douay has ‘masters’ correctly following the Latin, ‘dominorum’ but the Latin has ‘mensa’ for ‘table’ which is clearly SINGULAR. Therefore it is not grammatically logical for ‘dominorum’ to be plural as given. Ephraem Syrus, reading Tatian, sees ‘domini’, and notes the singular, pointedly. The allegorical reference to one master is tantamount to a confession by a Gentile of the Unity of God, and this qualifies to Jesus as a confession of faith, hence she is now seen as one of the ‘Children’

Tell me to come to you across the water.
This reading continues with the last two paragraphs of last week’s reading, then continues with the entirety of the next caput, as listed below. The reading is taken primarily from Matthew, but with a little interweaving from Mark and John.
LXXXI. Ubi Ihesus supra mare pedibus ambulavit et Petrum mergentem liberavit.
(Where Jesus walked upon the sea, and saved Peter from drowning.)
80: 7
And forthwith he commanded his disciples to go up into the boat, and to go before him over the water, to Bethsaida, until he dismissed the people.
8
Now those men, when they had seen what a miracle Jesus had done, said: This is of a truth the prophet that is to come into the world. Jesus therefore, when he knew that they would come to take him by force and make him king, fled, and having dismissed the multitude, he went into a mountain alone to pray.
81: 1
And when it was evening, he was there alone. But the boat in the midst of the sea was tossed with the waves: for the wind was contrary.
2
And in the fourth watch of the night, seeing them labouring he cometh to them walking upon the sea, and he would have passed by them. And they seeing him walking upon the sea, were troubled, saying: It is an apparition. And they cried out for fear. And immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying: Be of good heart: it is I, fear ye not.
3
And Peter making answer, said: Lord, if it be thou, bid me come to thee upon the waters. And he said: Come. And Peter going down out of the boat walked upon the water to come to Jesus.
4
But seeing the wind strong, he was afraid: and when he began to sink, he cried out, saying: Lord, save me. And immediately Jesus stretching forth his hand took hold of him, and said to him: O thou of little faith, why didst thou doubt? And when they were come up into the boat, the wind ceased, and presently the ship was at the land to which they were going.
5
And they that were in the boat came and worshiped him, saying: Indeed thou art the Son of God.
