What is a Missal?

• As time went on, the Church Fathers gathered the
  words used to faithfully celebrate the
  Eucharistic Meal (Mass) and collect them into
  books that became early missals. Many versions
  existed, but none were universal to the Roman
  (Latin) Rite until the 16th century.

8
How Did We Get Here?

• In 1570, Pope Pius V issued the first Roman
  Missal a complete collection of all the texts
  (prayers, rubrics, readings, antiphons) that were
  used in the celebration of the Eucharistic Meal.
  This book was only revised eight times over the
  next 400 years.

9
How Did We Get Here?

• The last change to the Roman Missal of 1570 was
  implemented by Pope John XXIII in 1962.

10
How Did We Get Here?

• A major revamping of the Roman Missal was
  orchestrated by the Second Vatican Council. The
  Council called for a rejuvenation of the Churchs
  liturgical life including a reform and renewal
  of the Mass.

16
Why Did Approval Take So Long?

• Lets Review Translating First
• There are two basic methods of translating that
  are generally accepted. They are
• Formal Equivalence
• Formal equivalence holds true to the
• form of the words.

17
Why Did Approval Take So Long?

• Lets Review Translating First
• There are two basic methods of translating that
  are generally accepted. They are
• Dynamic Equivalence
• Dynamic equivalence uses the
• form of the words , but also allows for
  interpretation of the force of the meaning.

Lets Examine This Passage from the Acts of the
Apostles

• On the first day of the week when we
• gathered to break bread, Paul spoke to
• them because he was going to leave on the
• next day, and kept on speaking until
• midnight.
• Acts 207

22
What Is Changing?

• During the 30 years between 1970 and the release
  of the Third Edition of the Roman Missal, many
  Church leaders, theologians, and scholars studied
  the English translation. In general they
  concluded that the English translation varied too
  greatly from the Latin edition and the
  translations into other languages.

23
What Is Changing?

• The first edition (1969) and the second edition
  (1975) of the Roman Missal were translated into
  English using Dynamic Equivalence.
• The third edition of the Roman Missal needed to
  be translated with close adherence to Formal
  Equivalence.

24
What Werethe Guidelines for Translation?

• Two Church documents gave guidance to the latest
  translation. The first is
• Liturgiam Authenticam (March 2001)
• Set Latin as the model from which all
  translations are to be made.
• Directed that conformity to formal equivalence be
  used for the translations.

25
What Werethe Guidelines for Translation?

• The second is
• Ratio Translationis (English Version 2007)
• The texts of the revised translations of the
  Roman Missal need to be marked by a heightened
  style of English speech and a grammatical
  structure that closely follows the Latin text.
• Care must be taken in translating person, number,
  and gender.

26

• Lets see how this new translation will
• affect the five parts of the Mass.
• Introductory Rites
• Liturgy of the Word
• Liturgy of the Eucharist
• Communion Rite
• Concluding Rites, and then
• How will music be impacted?

67
The Roman Missal

• The Liturgy of
• the Word

68
The Liturgy of the Word

• Readings
• Homily
• Creed
• Prayer of the Faithful

69
Readings

• Old Testament
• Responsorial Psalm
• New Testament
• Gospel

70
Readings

• In the readings, the table of God's word is
  prepared for the faithful, and the riches of the
  Bible are opened to them. Hence, it is preferable
  to maintain the arrangement of the biblical
  readings, by which light is shed on the unity of
  both Testaments and of salvation history.

71
Readings

• The function of proclaiming the readings is
  ministerial, not presidential. The readings,
  therefore, should be proclaimed by two lectors on
  Sundays and major feast days, and the Gospel by a
  deacon or, in his absence, a priest other than
  the celebrant.

72
First Reading

• On Sundays and major feast days the first
  readings usually taken from the Old Testament,
  though during the Easter season the Acts of the
  Apostles is used.On week days, the First reading
  is taken from both the Old Testament and the
  non-Gospel portions of the New Testament. A
  marked silence follows the reading.

73
Responsorial Psalm

• The responsorial Psalm should correspond to each
  reading and should, as a rule, be taken from the
  Lectionary. In the United States, it is
  permissible to replace the listed Psalm with a
  seasonal one. It is preferable that the
  responsorial Psalm be sung.

74
Second Reading

• On Sundays and major feast days the second
  readings is taken from the non-Gospel portion of
  the New Testament.
• A marked silence should follow the reading.

75
Lectionary for Mass

• The readings used are contained in the
  Lectionary for Mass. The pre-Vatican II Missale
  Romanum (1962) contained only two readings and
  was based on an annual cycle. The current
  Lectionary is based on a three year cycle for
  Sunday celebrations and a two year cycle for week
  days.

76
Old vs New

• Missale Romanum

• Lectionary

• Used 1 of Old Testament, 8 of 46 books cited.

• Uses 14 of Old Testament. 43 of 46 books cited.

77
Old vs New

• Missale Romanum

• Used 11 of non-Gospel portion of the New
  Testament.
• 14 of the 23 books cited.

• Uses 55 of non-Gospel portion of the New
  Testament.
• All 23 books cited.

78
Old vs New

• Missale Romanum

• Lectionary

• Matthew 35
• Mark 3
• Luke 16
• John 30

• Uses 90 of the Gospels
• Matthew 86
• Mark 96
• Luke 88
• John 92

79
Gospel

• The proclamation of the Gospel is the high point
  of the Liturgy of the Word. The Liturgy itself
  teaches that great reverence is to be shown to it
  by setting it off from the other readings with
  special marks of honor. This includes a Gospel
  Acclamation (Alleluia) as the Gospel book is in
  procession to the ambo.

80
Gospel Responses

• Present

• New

• Deacon (or Priest) The Lord be with you.
• People And also with you.

  Gospel according to N.
• People Glory to you, Lord.

• New
• Deacon (or Priest)
• A reading from the holy Gospel according to N.
• People Glory to you, O Lord.

82
Homily

• The Homily should ordinarily be given by the
  priest celebrant himself. He may entrust it to a
  concelebrating priest or the deacon, but not to a
  lay person. There should be a Homily on all
  Sundays and holy days and is recommended on other
  days. It should be an exposition of some aspect
  of the days readings or of another text Mass of
  the day. After the Homily a brief period of
  silence is observed.

83
Profession of Faith

• The purpose of the Profession of Faith, or
  Creed, is so the whole gathered people may
  respond to the word of God proclaimed in the
  readings and explained in the homily, and call to
  mind and confess the great mysteries of the
  faith.. The Creed is to be sung or prayed by the
  priest together with the people on Sundays and
  Solemnities. It may be prayed also at particular
  celebrations of a more solemn character.

  welcomed in faith and offer prayers to God for
  the salvation of all. The celebrant directs this

  community.

  participation in the liturgy requires that one be

  celebrated.

  encourage you now to seize the opportunity that
  the new translations offer for in-depth
  catechesis on the Eucharist and renewed devotion
  in the manner of celebration.

The Church has arranged the entire celebration of
the Liturgy of the Eucharist in parts
corresponding to precisely these words and
actions of Christ

EUCHARISTIC PRAYER

• We pray to God the Father, through the Son, that
  the Holy Spirit will come and change the bread

  Holy Spirit and become One Body, One Spirit in
  Christ."

133
St. Cyrils Commentary on Lift Up Your Hearts

• The priest cries out Lift up your hearts! For
  in this most solemn hour it is necessary for us
  to have our hearts raised up with God, and not
  fixed below, on the earth and earthly things. It
  is as if the priest instructs us at this hour to
  dismiss all physical cares and domestic
  anxieties, and to have our hearts in heaven with
  the benevolent God.

134
St. Cyrils Commentary on Lift Up Your Hearts

• We lift them up to the Lord, giving assent to
  it by the acknowledgment that you make. Let no
  one come here, then, who could say with his
  mouth, We lift them up to the Lord, while he is
  preoccupied with physical cares.
• - Catechetical Lectures 848d, Saint Cyril of
  Alexandria, A.D. 350

The Communion Rite
152
Introduction

• The Communion Rite begins with the Lords Prayer
  and continues through the Prayer after Communion
  or Collect.
• The Communion Rite is that part of the Mass at
  which we partake of the Body and Blood of Christ.
  
• It is at this time that we come forth to receive
  our spiritual nourishment for our souls and for
  our very lives.

153

• The RITUAL surrounding the sharing of Holy
  Communion will not be changing.
• You will however, find some of the wording to be
  different.

154
The Lords Prayer

• The Priest prays a brief invitation and then
  invites everyone to pray the Lords prayer
  together.
• The Lords Prayer itself, is not changing. The
  same words will be prayed which we have prayed
  all through our Christian lives. This is the ONLY
  text of the Mass that retains the old English
  pronoun (Thy) in thy will be done.

155

• The reason for the Lords Prayer remaining the
  same is that it has achieved a level of holiness
  that cannot be replaced.
• The Acclamation which concludes the Lords Prayer
  will also remain the same.
• We will still pray For the Kingdom/the power
  and the glory are yours, now and forever.

156
Changes to the Priests parts

  words our Savior gave us

  graciously grant peace in our days, that by the
  help of your mercy, we may be always free from
  sin and safe

158
Changes to the Priests parts

• Embolism
• from all anxiety as we wait in joyful hope for
  the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

• Embolism
• from all distress as we await the blessed hope
  and the coming of our Savior Jesus Christ.
• In this is echoed the words of St. Paul to Titus
  213, which affirms that Christ has come and that
  we await the blessed hope of His return.

159

  the church.

  enter under my roof, but only say the word and my
  soul shall be healed.

167
Lamb of God

• The use of the phrase Behold the Lamb of God,
  is closer to the Latin and is a more direct
  allusion to Jn. 1 29, where John the Baptist
  points out Jesus to his followers.
• The word Happy is changed to Blessed.

168
Lamb of God

  becomes that you should enter under my roof.

  Jesus to heal his servant. Jesus intends to go to
  his house but the Centurion believes himself
  unworthy to have Jesus come there.

170
Lamb of God

• The word, roof, is not to be thought of as the
  roof of ones mouth, but rather as connected to
  the Centurions humility.

  enter the place where we live.

171
Lamb of God

  healed becomes My Soul.
