THE BOOK OF THE GOSPELS
Use Since the time of Saint Gregory the Great, formal liturgical books containing readings from Sacred Scripture have been common in the Church. Today every effort is made to assure that the Scriptures are bound in books which are “worthy, dignified, and beautiful” (Lectionary for Mass, no. 35). The Book of the Gospels a sign of Christ’s presence in the liturgy; so much so that it is revered with the same holy kiss given to the altar. For this reason, it is desirable that ”cathedrals and... more populous parishes and the churches with a larger attendance possess a beautifully designed Book of the Gospels, separate from any other book of readings” (Lectionary for Mass, no. 36). This new Standard Edition of The Book of the Gospels is certain to meet and keep the standards set centuries ago. Features include: • Readings from the approved Revised New American Bible (RNAB) • Gospel readings for all Sunday Masses in the three year cycle, all Solemnities, all Feasts of the Lord, and all Ritual Masses • Table of readings • Large, easy-to-read font size and readings presented in sense lines • High-opacity paper to prevent images and text from bleeding through • Reinforced spine • Lighter-weight binding (weighs 2 lbs. less than the previous edition). Easier to carry! • More than 300 full-color pictures from the Church’s treasury of fine art • Large, beautifully ornate place-holder ribbon • Gold-stamped leather end sheets and gilded pages • Cover featuring Christ and the four Evangelists gold-stamped into the leather • Handcrafted in Belgium • Rindspeldt Genuine Leather, 558 pages, 10 ½x14 ¼ This truly worthy book makes an appropriate gifts for the parish, deacons, the newly ordained, priests, pastors, and even weddings and anniversaries.
