New Translation

The New Translation has a number of changes that I'm still learning about.

Here's one of the changes.


Gloria in Excelsis Deo

Perhaps the part of the Mass Ordinary that will undergo the most change in the new translation is the Gloria.  However, because the Gloria is not said on Sundays during Advent, we will not hear the new version until December 8, the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception.  Fortunately for us, this is also one of the richest texts of the Mass both in the translation from the Latin but also in its historical and Scriptural roots.  Therefore, there is much to discuss.
