LENTEN READING
“The Lessons and Gospels for the Season of Lent Taken from the Roman Missal,” introduction by Fr. Gonrad Pepler, O.P. (London: Dent for Hague and. Gill.)
The texts of this beautifully printed book of Lenten readings are selected from the missal in accordance with, the plan adopted by the Church. The significance of this planning is clearly explained by Father Pepler in an introduction which traces the historical and liturgical development of the Church's Lenten readings. “We should, not do amiss to use that plan, here set forth, as the basis for all our reading in Lent,” he writes. “An intelligent use of these lessons and gospels will help us to partake ever more fully of the spirit of Lent, and of the living tradition which links us to those zealous exercises of the early Christians, in evercloser union with the Church who stretches timeless across the centuries.”
