DIVINUM OFFICIUM Antiphon

Antiphona ad Benedictus

Sabbato Quatuor Temporum Quadragesimae - Lent Ember Saturday

This Benedictus antiphon for Lenten Ember Saturday recalls the Transfiguration (Matthew 17:1): 'Jesus took his disciples and led them up into a mountain, and was transfigured before them.' The Saturday Ember Day concludes the quarterly fast. The Transfiguration, traditionally read on the Second Sunday of Lent, reveals Christ's glory to sustain faith through the approaching Passion.

LATINE
Assumpsit Jesus discipulos suos, et ascendit in montem, et transfiguratus est ante eos.
