DIVINUM OFFICIUM Antiphon

Antiphona ad Benedictus - Sabbato Q.T. Pentecostes

Sabbato Quatuor Temporum Pentecostes (Pentecost Ember Saturday) - Lauds Benedictus - End of Octave after None

The Benedictus antiphon for Pentecost Ember Saturday, proclaiming that God's charity is poured into hearts through the Holy Spirit (Romans 5:5). This Pauline text provides the theological key to Pentecost: the Spirit as the gift of divine love. After None on this day, the Pentecost Octave concludes and Paschaltide ends.

LATINE
Caritas Dei diffusa est in cordibus nostris, per inhabitantem Spiritum ejus in nobis, alleluja.
ENGLISH
The charity of God is poured forth in our hearts, by the Holy Ghost, who is given to us, alleluia.
