Un'istruzione per il fedeli e per la messa antica (Andrea Tornielli)

statement to the faithful and for the ancient Mass

Blog by Andrea Tornielli

will be published in the coming weeks, probably in early April, the 'Education of the Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei - signed by Cardinal Levada, the secretary and approved by Guido Pozzo Benedict XVI - establishing some criteria of the motu proprio Summorum Pontificum . As you recall, the motu proprio, promulgated by Pope Ratzinger in 2007, had sanctioned the opening of the ancient missal and the opportunity for faith groups to apply directly to the parish priests celebrating the Mass according to the ritual pre-conciliar reform (with the 1962 Roman Missal , and not with the previous ones).

It 'no use denying that, with so many openings and a growing number of celebrations in the ancient rite, there were also many reactions of closure and restrictions imposed by some bishops. Education, now being translated into Latin and in various languages \u200b\u200b(the basic text is in Italian) is therefore an important document. In recent weeks, some websites and blogs related to the world 'traditional' or that they are closely following the activities, have taken a number of critical prior to the document, arguing that it is actually a watering down of the will of the Pope. From what I have learned, that interpretation is not true. For these reasons.

First

education with its contents confirmed that the motu proprio is a universal law of the Church and all are bound to implement it and ensure it is implemented. The instruction states that it ensures the possibility of the celebration in the ancient rite wherever there are groups of faithful who request it. In the text vienei not specify any minimum number of faithful who must be the group.

It says instead that it is good - in agreement with the post-synodal exhortation on the Eucharist - that seminarians should study Latin and know the celebrations following the ancient form. The "sacerdos idoneus" for the celebration with the pre-conciliar Missal is not necessary to be a skilful Latinist, but who knows how to read and understand what they read and are called to speak during the ceremony.

The Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei , which was incorporated two years in Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith , was established with the statement as the body responsible for settling issues and disputes, ruling on behalf of the Pope

The bishops should not and can not enact rules that restrict the powers granted by the motu proprio, or they mutate conditions. They are called instead to apply it.

can also be celebrated the Easter Triduum in pre-conciliar rite where there is a stable group of faithful attached to the old liturgy. Those belonging to religious orders can use the missals with their own rites preconciliar.

The Ambrosian rite is not mentioned in education: the motu proprio in fact applies only to the Roman Rite (Ecclesia Dei has no jurisdiction in the Ambrosian rite, sul quale ha invece giurisdizione la Congregazione del Culto divino ). Ciò però non significa che il motu proprio, o meglio, che la chiara ed esplicita volontà papale non sarà applicata nella diocesi di Milano. E’ sempre accaduto, con la riforma liturgica, ma prima ancora con i cambiamenti introdotti nei riti della Settimana Santa del 1954 da Pio XII, che il rito ambrosiano abbia fatto proprie istanze e modifiche, seppure in tempi successivi. E’ probabile che - stante l’evidente volontà del Papa di rendere disponibile per tutti i fedeli il rito antico, visto l’inquadramento giuridico precisato nel documento sull’applicazione del motu proprio di imminente pubblicazione, in considerazione del fatto che anche l’ambrosiano è un rito latino riformato nel post-concilio - possa essere studiato un documento analogo che estenda il Summorum Pontificum anche alla diocesi di Milano.
