Beauty: Dignity and the Liturgy


You must therefore take all the attention and care possible because dignity of the liturgy shines even in the smallest details in the form of true beauty. We must remember that those saints that lived poverty with particular ascetic commitment always desired that the most beautiful and precious objects be set apart for divine worship.


-Beauty in Each Aspect of the Liturgical Rite [unofficial NLM translation]

(cf. John 12:3-8)

Albion and the Dry Hem

The indefatigable Aaron Taylor of Logismoi has announced a contest. This reference to said contest is one component of my participation--the other, is that I must posit an answer to the question: 'What is Albion's Error?' See the comments section at the contest post for my theory.

...μήποτε καὶ θεομάχοι εὑρεθῆτε

I just discovered today that the teacher of St. Paul (yes, that St. Paul), Gamaliel, had converted to Christianity, and is in the Calendar of the Church.

Next August 2nd, remember the rabbi's Rabbi.




For more information on the discovery of the relics of St. Gamaliel and of his good friend, St. Nikodemos, go here.
