Responsorium VII - Nocturn III
Passion Sunday, Nocturn III, Responsory 1
About This Prayer
This seventh responsory for Passion Sunday draws from John 8:47: 'Jesus said to the multitudes of the Jews and to the chief priests: He that is of God heareth the words of God; therefore you hear them not, because you are not of God.' The Gospel of Passion Sunday (John 8) presents Christ's confrontation with His opponents. The responsory highlights the division between those who receive Christ and those who reject Him.
