Riassunto

Excerpt from An Analysis or Familiar Explanation of the Gospels: As Read at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, on the Different Sundays and Festivals Throughout the Year

Having long ardently desired that the Word of God, the foundation of Christianity, a portion of which is regularly introduced into the order of each Mass, should be perfectly understood by those, to whom the favour of Heaven has deigned to impart it and observing, moreover, that in the general method, the instructions delivered from it, whether upon Sundays or Holidays, were deduced from one single text of the lesson of the day, I conceived the idea of supplying the deficiency, which this method must obviously and naturally cause as to the knowledge of the remaining parts, by a circumstantial explication of the whole of each Gospel that occurs in our public service.

In doing this, I have endeavoured, in as few words as possible, to elucidate the genuine meaning, of whatever kind it be, whether historical or moral, of each verse, as we proceed: subjoining, at the same time, such further remarks, which, as being founded on God's word, will, if for that reason alone, claim the reader's most serious attention.
