Title
The Bible and the Liturgy - Paperback
by Jean Daniélou (Author)
The Bible and the Liturgy illuminates the vital and meaningful bond between Bible and liturgy, connecting Church past and present.
In the modern day, Christians accept Church rituals as sacred but baffling heirlooms from the Church's past. But these rituals are so much more than that. Father Daniélou delves into how the Church's liturgical rites and feasts are intended not only to transmit the grace of the sacraments but also to instruct the faithful in their meaning, as well as the meaning of the whole Christian life. It is through the sacraments in their role as signs that Christians learn. Daniélou helps readers rediscover the significance of these rites so that the sacraments may once again be thought of as the continuation of the great works of God in the Old Testament and the New.

No serious student of the liturgy, no cleric especially, will want to miss the depths of meaning conveyed by the sacramental signs which this book reveals. --The Catholic World
"Father Danielou shows a life-long, intimate friendship with the early fathers of the church. With an amazing ease and dexterity he will call upon these holy writers to explain the early origin as well as the deeper and more primitive meaning of the sacramental rites. . . . [The Bible and the Liturgy] will provide a much deeper understanding of our principal liturgical rites in themselves and in their relation to the Passion. . . . There is much profit and inspiration in this book, so wonderfully rich in patristic lore." --The Passionist "Danielou offers us a rich synthesis of the profound meaning of the sacramental rites and feasts. The book is written most properly for a wide public; its contents are intended for the members of God's people who, whether in parishes or cloisters, celebrate the feasts of the Church and take part in her sacraments. It is of high importance for pastoral liturgy and catechetical instruction." --Worship "[T]he book awakens the reader to the depth and dimension and unity that characterize divine activities." --Religious Education Jean Danielou, S.J. (1905-1974) was the author of numerous works, including Why the Church?, The Angels and Their Mission: According to the Fathers of the Church, and Prayer: The Mission of the Church.Author Biography
