DIVINUM OFFICIUM Antiphon

Antiphona ad Benedictus

Sabbato post Dominicam II Adventus - Lauds Benedictus

Saturday's Benedictus antiphon presents the Lord lifting a standard for the nations and gathering Israel's dispersed (Isaias 11:12). The ingathering theme connects to Jewish return from exile and Church's universal mission. Week II concludes with hope for unity.

LATINE
Levabit Dominus signum, in nationibus, et congregabit dispersos Israel.
ENGLISH
