Transcription

1 Due to greater responsiveness at the National Catholic Reporter blog, my interest is shifting from annotating my index, to engaging conversation there. I may keep up the Bibliography, but without further comment. Time will tell. Readings First Reading: Jeremiah 31:31-34 Psalm: Psalm 51:3-4, 12-13, (12a) Second Reading Hebrews 5:7-9 Verse before the Gospel John 12:26 Gospel: John 12:20-33 Annotated Bibliography Musings above the solid line draw from material below. Those disinterested in scholarly and tangential details should stop reading here. If they do, however, they may miss some interesting prayer-provoking details.
