Empty Streets 6 AM.
Responses sung in LATIN date back to
the Church at the time of the Bible (402)
when the Roman Emperor told the Church
to make a Bible that included the Jewish
Bible (Tanach) with LATIN translations
of the Gospels and letters of the New Testament. The first Vatican Council decided which GOSPELS and letters to
use, out of 5000 handwritten texts in Greek
and Aramaic. The translation was accomplished by Jerome, secretary to the Pope. Jerome also re-translated the Old Testament in accordance with the Masoretic Text. The Catholic Church spoke Latin at Mass, until the mid 1960's, after the Second Vatican Council.
It puzzled me that the Church would
revert to the vernacular (English) when
I was seven...
I was just getting used to the Latin.
Jesus said:
Those who are BAPTISED and BELIEVE
shall be saved.
Three women, Acapella...
The rest...better get some faith. QUICK.
