Responsorium IX - Nocturn III
Third Sunday of Advent (Gaudete), Nocturn III, Responsory 3 - with Gloria Patri
About This Prayer
"Egredietur virga de radice Jesse" quotes Isaias 11:1-2 directly, the rod (virga) from Jesse's root upon whom the Spirit rests. The flower (flos) ascending from the root is Christ, and the sevenfold Spirit's resting upon Him fulfills this text. The verse's Isaian titles (Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God) accumulate divine attributes. Gaudete Sunday's ninth responsory celebrates prophetic fulfillment.
