Money quote

From my pastor's homily at Mass this morning for the 2nd Sunday of Advent:


"Before, we used to separate the liturgy from the Scripture, or we would make room for the Scripture during the liturgy; with the new translation, they are much more integrated. We can see now how much the liturgy borrows from Scripture. You might even say they are consubstantial with one another."

At which point my wife and I burst out chuckling, and then hushed ourselves when we realized we were the only ones laughing.I went up to him afterwards and shook his hand and thanked him for his brilliance.
