DIVINUM OFFICIUM Antiphon

Antiphona ad Benedictus

Feria V post Dominicam II Adventus - Lauds Benedictus

About This Prayer

"Tu es qui venturus es" (Thou art He who is to come) quotes the disciples' question to Jesus (Matt 11:3). The expectation that He will save His people structures Thursday Lauds with hopeful inquiry. The question-form preserves Advent's searching posture.
