02:00Thank you!
02:31Throughout this catechesis you will learn about the profound meanings contained in each of the places in the temple, the vestments, the sacred vessels and in general all our rite.
02:44I hope that it will be of great use to you and help you, as the Catechism of the Church tells us, to actively and fruitfully celebrate the mystery of the Holy Mass.
02:54Well, let's start by getting to know the celebratory space or spaces, that is, the place where we participate in the Eucharistic celebration.
03:05As you know well, we call this space a temple.
03:10In this first part we will talk about the sanctity of the place of celebration, which cannot be just any place, but a holy place.
03:20This holy place is consecrated by the bishop.
03:25Each of the temples has been consecrated by the bishop and that is why they are holy places.
03:31You will remember the words of Jesus, "My house," referring precisely to the temple, will be called a house of prayer, and therefore it must be treated with special respect.
03:42We will also see each of the places where we will participate in our Eucharist.
03:48Join us on this journey.
03:50Hello brothers and sisters! We are here at the temple, the place of the celebration.
04:01The temple is a sacred place.
04:04The word sacred comes from the Hebrew word Kodesh, which means consecrated, set apart.
04:13To understand this, we would have to go back a little in history and see how God, in choosing us, sets us apart, that is, consecrates us.
04:25God is something else, God is completely separate, that's why the Hebrews said holy, holy, holy, holy.
04:36Because they don't have the superlative, the most holy, and so when they say holy, holy, holy, they are saying the greatest holiness.
04:47In other words, God is something completely different from us.
04:52He lives in heaven, He is the saint, He is the other thing, so to speak.
04:58However, God has chosen to live with us, to share our story.
05:05And in order to do this, He has first lifted us up, He has brought us to Himself.
05:14Saint Augustine said that he sent his son to become man so that we could share in his holiness.
05:23He has wanted, through a work that, well, He has so decided, He has wanted us to share His being.
05:32And then he consecrated us, he made us part of himself.
05:38Therefore, man is a completely symbolic being.
05:42Learn through signs, through all these elements without which we could not understand realities outside our world.
05:56That is why, when Jesus spoke to his disciples and wanted to refer to the kingdom, he always said, it is like, it is similar to.
06:07Why? Because we needed something tangible, something objective, something we knew directly, to take us from there to a completely different, new reality that we don't know, that we don't have access to.
06:27Saint Paul, speaking precisely of this reality of heaven, says, therefore, no eye has seen, nor ear heard what God has prepared for those who love him.
06:41So we are talking about something that we cannot understand.
06:47And in this process, God has wanted us to have some symbolic elements in order to enter into communion with Him.
06:56And one of the first symbolic elements, then, is what we call today the liturgy.
07:02That is, through elements that we know, things in which we can participate, we can enter into communion with his mystery.
07:13Something that is completely outside of us, through signs, we come into contact with mysterious realities.
07:23And that is why, throughout the ages, man has been generating different symbolic forms to enter into communion with the Lord.
07:34And that is how what we call the cult has been generated.
07:39The cult is generated in order to enter into communion through signs, through symbolic elements, with the transcendent, with the one I do not see, with the one I do not know, thus, face to face.
07:54But through different elements we can enter into communion with Him.
07:59And one of the first elements that man has distinguished are called sacred spaces, which today we generally call temples.
08:11In the temple we find a place of encounter with God.
08:16There can be different forms of encounter, such as the one the Israelites had, for example, in the desert, where they did not have a temple.
08:29However, they had a tent, a place where there was that connection with God, which was the ark.
08:38In other words, again symbolic elements, elements where people understand that through this element they can enter into communion, they can move towards this reality that surpasses them, which is God.
08:53So, today we already have these temples.
08:58I don't want to get into all this talk about symbolism and everything, but rather go a little more towards the concrete, which is what we need to know about our liturgy.
09:09Already the Christian liturgy, the Catholic liturgy, in the celebration of the holy mystery of the Eucharist.
09:17The holy mystery that we call the Mass.
09:20As we have seen, the place of the celebration is a holy place, for that is where, in a special way, God makes his presence felt.
09:30A presence that we cannot physically see.
09:34Holiness is something we can perceive, but it is not something we can have a sensory experience of.
09:42That is why man has sought to translate a series of elements that help us to perceive through our senses what we cannot see of the mystery of God and of the elements that God transmits through the temple and the celebration itself.
10:02That is why we now have a series of symbolic elements through which we can understand, at least partially, the profound reality that this mystery holds.
10:16The mystery of God, the mystery of his holiness, the mystery of his presence.
10:21We will now see how man has sought to understand that entering the temple separates us from the world and makes us enter into a wonderful mystery of God.
10:32Join us.
10:33And well, the mass is celebrated in a sacred place, that is, it is celebrated in a temple.
10:56And temples are sacred spaces, that is, when we enter the temple, we are entering a place that is, let's put it this way, separate from the rest.
11:12We are entering the realm of God, the realm of the sacred.
11:17The Greeks called it hagios; it was to enter into space, into the space of God, to enter a holy, consecrated place, where God makes his presence felt.
11:36We know that God, and we have learned this from the catechism, is in everyone, everywhere.
11:45In other words, we truly live, as Saint Paul would say, for in him we live, in him we have our being, in him we move.
11:53So we are truly in God.
11:57However, when we enter the temple, God has chosen to make his presence felt in a special way within the temple.
12:05because it is the place where we have a series of symbolic elements, which help us to enter, more easily, into contact with it.
12:15There we will find images, for example, we will find places, we will find a series of elements,
12:23that will help us to enter into this situation of mystery, and share with him his own mystery.
12:33And that is why we have these places that we call temples, which are consecrated places.
12:40For a place to be consecrated, nowadays, it has to be consecrated by the bishop.
12:47who is the direct representative of Jesus in a diocese.
12:51He makes his presence felt in a particular way as Jesus, and he comes to consecrate the temple.
12:58The temple is consecrated, and then dedicated.
13:02This place can no longer be used for parties, shows, or anything else.
13:09This place is a holy place.
13:13It is a holy place.
13:16And this is something we need to keep learning.
13:19Holy places, because God is present there in a special way.
13:23And it is very important that we instruct our children in this sanctity of the temple.
13:32Sometimes we see children running and playing in our temples.
13:37We need to instruct them that we are in a holy place, in a separate place.
13:43And for that, we have been searching, or architecture has been searching, to fill us or help us with signs
13:54that allow us to know that we are entering a holy place.
14:13When we come from the street, we will notice that to get to the temple, we will have a step here.
14:29This step separates us from what is the street, which would be the idea of the world where we live.
14:36In other words, we are in the world, but now we are going to pass into a holy place.
14:43We call this part, which is helping us to illustrate, the atrium.
14:50This place would already be a holy place.
14:53And this part here would be the world.
14:56In other words, this is where we humans live, right?
15:01Those of us who are not God.
15:02And then we move on to a first sphere of holiness, to a first place of holiness in this place.
15:11We are here, then, in this part which is now the atrium, which is now a holy place.
15:17This already deserves respect, it deserves, therefore, a conception, to enter into this dimension that we are already in the holy place.
15:25But we will notice that to enter the temple there is a new step.
15:31A step that allows us to enter, now for real, the sacred precinct.
15:37A place where silence must prevail above all else.
15:41It is important, then, that we understand that we are about to enter a dimension of mystery
15:46which allows us to celebrate the worship of the Lord in a particular way, participating in his holiness.
15:55When we don't understand this and think this is just another place where we meet,
16:00because we are no longer truly taking advantage of all that God wants us to experience by entering this space of holiness.
16:08Entering the temple is entering a holy place.
16:17However, we see how some churches have a small vestibule between the atrium and the actual place of worship.
16:25which helps us to gradually move from the world to the divine sphere.
16:30Because we always come agitated and this little place, as we shall see, helps us to enter properly into the mystery of God.
16:38Let's see.
16:38And here we are, then, in this holy place, which from the moment we entered,
16:50which is not yet the holy place; today it is customary to have a place that is already a temple,
16:57But it is not yet the place of celebration, where we can still begin to raise awareness.
17:07to become aware of what we are going to experience.
17:10Here, for example, in this temple, we can see that from the moment we enter, we will find sacred images,
17:18like this Christ.
17:19Christ is one of the most important elements in our celebration, because it is precisely the crucified Christ whom we are going to celebrate.
17:31It is the holy sacrifice of the Mass.
17:33We can find how, from here on out, we are becoming more aware of how to fully embrace the Christian life of our celebration in the temple.
17:47Sometimes we come running and suddenly we're inside without having done this preparation.
17:54That is why we need, when we are going to celebrate the Eucharist, which is once a week,
18:01give us enough time for it and don't arrive rushing at the last minute, sometimes when the celebration has already started.
18:08We must give ourselves time, enter in peace, in silence, becoming aware of all the elements that God has placed at our disposal.
18:18so that we can become attuned to our mystery.
18:25And we are now here, entering the sacred place.
18:28We are now in this place of holiness, where we will be able to participate in the Eucharist.
18:39This place is a sacred place, it is a holy place.
18:42From the moment we enter, we must immediately place ourselves in the presence of the Lord.
18:48That is why it is customary to make the sign of the cross as soon as we enter the sacred place.
18:54In this way, this will help us to become aware once again of the moment we are living in.
19:01and of the holiness that we must already begin to experience in this place where God is going to make contact
19:09in a wonderful way through the Eucharist.
19:13Let's now explore the other sacred places.
19:18Isn't it interesting to learn about all these symbolic elements that humankind has created?
19:28to translate a mystery that we could not access without them.
19:34As you can see, each of the elements, such as the steps,
19:39They are not placed randomly, but have a profound liturgical meaning,
19:44because they help us realize that we are entering more and more into the presence of God,
19:51in a truly holy place that draws us closer to Him.
19:56Within the holy places, within the very sanctity of the temple,
20:00We will now see that the holiest place within the temple is precisely what we call the sanctuary.
20:08so called because it is the celebratory space reserved for priests,
20:13That is, for priests.
20:16Join us to see this next section.
20:18And well, now that we're here in the temple, let's go to the most sacred part.
20:41Inside the temple, we will also find that there are more sacred places.
20:46So we came first from the world, right?
20:50We came from the street and then realized that the atrium already has a first step.
20:55Not all churches have it.
20:58However, liturgically it is recommended that the atrium already have a first step.
21:03or that is separate from the area of what is properly the street.
21:08We have to pass through a sacred place now.
21:11Entering the temple introduced us to an even more sacred place.
21:16In other words, we are ascending, we are getting closer and closer to God.
21:21We are now entering this space of holiness in which we will celebrate our Eucharist.
21:27And now, in the temple, let's see that we have even more sacred places.
21:33As we progress towards the presbytery,
21:39we will find that the sanctuary is an even more sacred place.
21:45Here in the sanctuary we are going to discover that we have this idea of holiness again.
21:52The Vatican Council, through the Sacrosanctum Concilium,
21:57which is the document that the holy fathers created to give new life to the liturgy,
22:07It features a series of elements that in newer churches,
22:12That is, the churches that have been built since the council,
22:17They have adapted to these new regulations.
22:20Not all churches, given that they were built in different centuries,
22:26because it is not possible for them to adapt to them.
22:29However, the newer churches have been achieving, therefore,
22:33to accommodate certain liturgical elements that allow us to gradually become familiar with these signs,
22:40that help us to participate better in our celebration.
22:43And so, here we will notice that, since I've been here, this is the floor of the temple,
22:51And now I am going to ascend to another space of holiness.
22:56The church has wanted us to have a first level, which we call the first level of the presbytery,
23:03where the church has now combined the baptistery and the musicians' area,
23:13Right? They are also ministers of the celebration.
23:17Thus, on this same level, baptism is integrated, on the one hand,
23:24because it is from the baptismal font that Christian life is born,
23:28And that is where the Eucharistic celebration originates.
23:33Therefore, the Vatican Council has desired that at this first level,
23:38in this first transfer point from our temple to the presbytery,
23:46It is called a presbytery because, especially in ancient times,
23:50This was the only place to which the presbyteries had access.
23:54Today, also within the norms of the Vatican Council,
23:58Well, this is no longer exclusive to the priest,
24:04but rather the laity, with proper preparation and training,
24:08They can also participate in our celebrations.
24:11We'll talk about this a little later.
24:14However, we have the presbytery,
24:18which remains divided, remains divided from the temple,
24:24which you may have seen in some of the old churches,
24:31what was called the communion rail, which was, therefore, practically a small wall,
24:35made of different materials, which it perfectly defined.
24:41Communion rails still exist in some churches today.
24:45This, within the church, has meant that the participation of the people is therefore more complete.
24:54There isn't this class division, is there?
24:56The priest, therefore, is of another class, and the people, of another class.
25:01No, we all share in the holiness that God has communicated to us through baptism.
25:06And so, here, in this place, the holy people of God gather.
25:11But we will also talk about the holiness of the people a little later.
25:16Let's move on to this part.
25:18And then, we arrived at this place, which, as I said,
25:22Previously, it was divided, and there was the communion rail.
25:26but which now allows us to enter this first place of holiness.
25:31This already indicates that we are entering, those of us who pass into this place,
25:37We are entering a holy place.
25:40We are indeed entering into an increasingly full contact.
25:45We came from the street, we went into the atrium, we went into the temple,
25:49And now we move on to this first space of holiness in the sanctuary.
25:55In this first place of the presbytery, we ordinarily find two places.
26:01The Second Vatican Council, one of the most wonderful instruments
26:06that God has proposed to the Church in these latter times,
26:09aware of the need for everything in the liturgy to have a meaning
26:15that would help us to learn more about the mystery of God's love,
26:20and not only that they were a series of rites and places
26:23that they had no connection with us,
26:25and of which we had no reference.
26:29has given us, through the dogmatic Constitution Sacrosanctum Concilium,
26:35the rules to make our celebrations more dynamic and more participatory.
26:41In this Constitution we will see that each element has sought the Council
26:47that has a clearer connection with the mystery of Christ,
26:51and also from us Christians, the people of God,
26:56that gathers for the Sunday celebration and that is fundamental in our life of faith.
27:02One of these elements was placing the baptismal font in the presbytery.
27:08Previously, this was outside.
27:10Today we will see it in our presbyteries.
27:12Join us.
27:29The baptismal font has been included within the sanctuary
27:34because it is a place from which Christian life arises, from which it emanates.
27:41And obviously, from here, we also have to,
27:45From here we will see how the life of Christ flows towards the Eucharist.
27:56And that is why the Vatican Council wanted the baptistery to be placed within the sanctuary.
28:04Previously, in the earlier liturgy, the baptistery was not even in the temple.
28:09The baptistery was in another part that was outside the temple.
28:13It was therefore called the temple of the baptistery or the place of the baptistery.
28:18Simply the baptistery.
28:19If you go to Europe, where all these very old buildings still exist,
28:24We will find this type of construction there.
28:28Today, the Vatican Council has preferred that the baptismal font be placed inside the sanctuary.
28:38Another place within the sanctuary will be the singers' area,
28:44that are part of the Eucharistic celebration.
28:47Thus, the presbytery today welcomes all the ministers of the celebration.
28:54The priest, the acolytes, the singers, and all those who have a ministry within the celebration,
29:02because now they participate directly within the presbytery.
29:06And that's why, on the other side, generally, on the other side of the presbytery,
29:12We are going to find the part of the singers, which we have here in this temple.
29:19I'm going to stop here for a bit, because you'll be noticing that I have to keep avoiding this place.
29:26This place is not a sacred place, it is not one of the places of celebration,
29:31but it is a small stand that is set up to make ammunition.
29:38If we look closely, we'll realize that it's on a higher level.
29:45where I was just walking, in the place of the presbytery.
29:48However, in this temple, this is simply for practical reasons.
29:53so that he can be seen from there and can lead the celebration.
29:58But, ordinarily, this can be in the temple area,
30:04because it is part of the people who are being instructed on how to follow the celebration.
30:11In this temple, then, it was placed here simply for practical matters.
30:17That place is called the lectern, and it is from there that the monitor makes the comments.
30:25where he will go, then, helping to make comments on the first reading, second reading,
30:32give some directions, etc.
30:34One of the major changes in the liturgy was bringing the singers closer to the sanctuary,
30:45which were previously in a reserved place, away from the presbytery, usually in the upper part of the temple.
30:52And for that reason he ordered that a space be designed for the organ,
30:56which is the fundamental instrument of the celebration,
30:59to accompany prayers and help the faithful to lift their spirits,
31:04He was to stand with the singers near the presbytery, attached precisely to it.
31:11Let's see in our temple how this part for the singers and for the organ is attached.
31:18Let's see.
31:29The choir area, which is also not complete due to the nature of this temple.
31:45This area only has this line that we can see in this part, but it is not complete.
31:54Of course, this part would have to be very similar to the part we just saw,
32:00where the entire choir and all the music ministers could fit, but in this part, well, it's not there.
32:07However, one part is where the organ is located,
32:10which is one of the fundamental instruments for the celebration of the Eucharist,
32:15because it is part of it, it is already attached to the presbytery.
32:20And here this should have continued a bit like we have it there, to accommodate the whole choir.
32:27However, well, these steps were commissioned for this temple,
32:31that form in some way, that are integrated into the presbytery,
32:36so that all the ministers, ministers of song,
32:40Participate because you are the ones who will be livening up our celebration.
32:44And these are the first two places where we can notice
32:50of all the symbolic elements that we have and that we often don't know about.
32:57In other words, many people don't know why we have the baptismal font in our sanctuaries.
33:03or why today the singers are with us and not as in the ancient temples,
33:08where even high places had been prepared, right?
33:14From where the choir sang.
33:16There was the organist, there was the organ, and there was the choir.
33:20Today, the liturgy requires that this be exactly together with all of us who are celebrating.
33:28It's part of the celebration's entertainment
33:31and may the sign of the baptistery always be present
33:36because it is from there, from where Christian life springs forth.
33:40It is to remind every Christian that their life began there.
33:46And as I was saying a moment ago,
33:49The people gathered here are the people of the saints.
33:53And this holiness unites us to God
33:57It was born precisely in the baptistery.
34:01That is where holiness is born.
34:04And both the priest who will be celebrating here,
34:07the ministers who will accompany him,
34:09the singing ministers, the altar servers,
34:12extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion
34:14and all the people gathered here,
34:17We have in common that we are saints.
34:21We have been set apart by God
34:24through our baptism.
34:27Holiness that was born in the baptismal font.
34:30That's why he wanted it to be a visible place.
34:33Because, like now, it's decorated for Easter,
34:36so that it has the same ornamentation
34:38which has the rest of the presbytery
34:40so that as soon as people arrive
34:43become aware first
34:45that he is entering a holy place.
34:48And that this holy place is our place
34:51because we are saints.
34:54And upon seeing the baptismal font
34:56remember our baptismal promises
34:59and in this way we can all integrate
35:01in this atmosphere of holiness.
35:04A holy place where people gather
35:06the people of the saints,
35:09the holy people.
35:10This is how Saint Paul refers to it.
35:11when he speaks to communities,
35:14always writes saying
35:16to the saints who gather in
35:18or to the saints of the particular city
35:21Because saying Christian is the same as saying saint.
35:23It's exactly the same.
35:26That is why we are now in this place of holiness.
35:28from where we Christians are
35:31we celebrate the worship that is proper to him.
35:33to God our Lord.
35:36And well, now we move on to another level of holiness
35:40And we'll notice here that we have three steps.
35:45These three steps are found in most temples
35:48They mean a Trinitarian element
35:52And it's to say I'm going up
35:54practically to the sky.
35:57That is why the priest, when he celebrates
36:00as we will see later
36:02because it also enters into a dimension of holiness
36:05very particular
36:07And these steps want to tell you
36:11especially to the priest
36:13and to his ministers
36:14that are coming in
36:15now in full and perfect contact with God
36:19through celebration.
36:21But also for all those who are celebrating
36:23so they can have
36:25This reference
36:27of this holiness.
36:29And we have these three steps
36:32that represent holiness to us.
36:35And so the priest goes up
36:38and now it's still in a place
36:41holier.
36:44They pray, as the French would say, right?
36:46Thrice holy, holy, holy, holy
36:49each of the steps
36:51indicating this level of holiness.
36:54In other words, we are arriving
36:55to perfect holiness.
36:58From here then only
36:59because that would separate us
37:01because this world is towards God
37:02But we're already at this level.
37:04of full, perfect holiness
37:07that people think we're here
37:09so that they see us better
37:11as if this were a stage.
37:13I mean, when we go to a party
37:16or to a fair
37:17Well, we see that the artists
37:19They are on a platform
37:20and it would seem as if the priest
37:22Well, I'd go and put on a show here.
37:24I was going to present something
37:25and this was a stage
37:27so that others could see it.
37:29And no, it absolutely does not have
37:31Nothing to do with that.
37:32This indicates an increase
37:35in holiness.
37:36It is a rise in holiness
37:38in which we
37:39We can now locate ourselves
37:41to be able to participate
37:43of the Eucharist.
37:45Within the sanctuary
37:47This is already properly
37:49the presbytery
37:50we were saying where the priests
37:51They celebrate the Eucharist
37:53as I mentioned earlier
37:56Today it's not just the priests
37:58but also all the ministers
38:00who participate in the celebration.
38:02And we can distinguish
38:03three main places.
38:06On the one hand
38:06We're going to have the place
38:08from the word of God
38:09which we call Ambon.
38:13A second place
38:14at the back
38:14generally
38:15the headquarters
38:16where
38:17is presided over
38:19the celebration
38:20and a third place
38:22what is
38:22the altar
38:23where it is done
38:24the sacrifice
38:26bloodless
38:27of the Eucharist
38:28and where it is prepared
38:30the banquet
38:30so that everyone
38:31Let's eat
38:32of the body
38:33and of the blood
38:33of Christ.
38:35A small place
38:36that does not properly form
38:37part of the places
38:39of the presbytery
38:40but that is
38:41in the sanctuary
38:42Well, it's the place
38:43of the credenza
38:44which is where
38:45we put
38:46everything necessary
38:48for the celebration.
38:50Let's see then
38:50each one of them
38:52in order to understand
38:53better
38:54these places
38:55within the presbytery.
38:56And well then
38:59now we are
38:59already here
38:59in the sanctuary
39:00and we see
39:01like these steps
39:03They are not ornamental
39:04but also
39:05They are symbolic.
39:07Let us remember
39:07that when
39:08we talk about God
39:09always
39:10him
39:11We located it
39:12at the top
39:13from there
39:14that Moses
39:15and the prophets
39:16They always went up
39:17to the mountain
39:18to have there
39:19the meeting
39:19with God.
39:20Jesus himself
39:21it is transfigured
39:23before his apostles
39:23on a mountain
39:25in the mountains
39:26of God.
39:27Let's see now
39:27already here
39:28in the sanctuary
39:29the different places
39:30that we have
39:31here
39:32and that mark us
39:33different moments
39:34and spaces
39:35within our celebration.
39:53First place
39:54We're going to find it
39:56We're going to find it
39:56here
40:01what is
40:02the ambo
40:04or place
40:05of the word
40:05of God.
40:07Previously
40:07when we didn't have
40:08all this technology
40:11well
40:12I couldn't be
40:13to the front
40:14as we have it
40:15right now
40:15where it should
40:16of being part
40:17of the presbytery
40:18but
40:19surely
40:20in some church
40:21that you have visited
40:22you will be able to find
40:23that there
40:24some species
40:25of towers
40:26TRUE?
40:27where there was a space
40:28so that it would be
40:29the priest.
40:31That place
40:31It was called
40:32the pulpit
40:33and from there
40:34generally
40:35They were halfway there
40:36of the church
40:37and from there
40:38was heading
40:39because humility
40:41was heading
40:42the explanation
40:43what was
40:44celebrating.
40:45Nowadays
40:46It must be
40:47here
40:47in the sanctuary
40:49and it must have
40:50he tells us
40:51the council
40:52Vatican
40:52a way
40:53big
40:55wide
40:55in such a way
40:56that could
40:57give us the idea
40:58that it is a table
40:59if we
41:01we noticed
41:01on this ambo
41:02let's give ourselves
41:03account
41:04What is it?
41:05a table
41:06or wants to be
41:07a bit
41:07a table
41:08big
41:09flat
41:09It's not a tril
41:12but
41:15This is a
41:16or treats
41:17I'd like
41:18mean
41:19like a table
41:20that's why
41:21We have done it
41:21flatter
41:22in such a way
41:23that this
41:24we think
41:24a table
41:25because this
41:26It's the table
41:27of the word
41:28the people
41:30It feeds
41:31of the word
41:32of God
41:32in such a way
41:34that when we
41:35We came to mass
41:36we come
41:38to feed ourselves
41:39of the word
41:40of God
41:40That's why it's very
41:41important
41:42be very attentive
41:43throughout
41:44the celebration
41:45during the part
41:47of the word
41:47of God
41:48to feed ourselves
41:49because otherwise
41:50we feed ourselves
41:51of the word
41:52of God
41:52Well, we're leaving.
41:53to go
41:53well, sort of
41:55There are people
41:56that is
41:56distracted
41:57taking care
41:58to the children
41:59thinking
42:00on something else
42:01and it's not
42:02putting
42:02really
42:03attention
42:03to the word
42:04of God
42:04and this does
42:05that this part
42:06then don't take advantage
42:07so
42:08this first place
42:09we call it
42:10the ambo
42:11and that place
42:12from where
42:13it is proclaimed
42:15the word
42:15of God
42:16here
42:16the readers
42:17and the priest
42:18they will proclaim
42:20will announce
42:20the word
42:21of God
42:21Let's go now
42:39to the part
42:40bottom
42:42ordinarily
42:43there
42:43is where
42:44have
42:44what we call
42:46the headquarters
42:47comes
42:48comes
42:48of the word
42:49feel
42:50in Latin
42:51because
42:52previously
42:53culture
42:54former
42:55where from
42:55us
42:56we have received
42:57all these
42:58mysteries
42:58used to
43:00the kings
43:01the princes
43:02the gentlemen
43:04used to
43:05address
43:06to the people
43:06seated
43:08and then
43:09that's why
43:10It is called
43:10headquarters
43:11because
43:12from here
43:13sitting
43:14it is from
43:15where
43:15is presided over
43:16the sacred
43:17Eucharist
43:18ordinarily
43:20It must be
43:20at the back
43:21of our
43:22temples
43:22however
43:23in some
43:24temples
43:25We have them
43:25to one side
43:26of the altar
43:27never
43:30they must be
43:31forward
43:32preventing
43:33the vision
43:34of the altar
43:34which is the place
43:35most important
43:37inside
43:38of the
43:39celebration
43:39Eucharistic
43:40the two places
43:41fundamentals
43:42would be
43:43the one of the word
43:44of God
43:45and the Eucharist
43:46but also
43:47It's a place
43:48important
43:48because this
43:49It gives it character
43:50of lordship
43:52that's why
43:53the priest
43:54is the one that has
43:54the capacity
43:55of being
43:56directing
43:57He is the pastor
43:58He is in charge
43:59of the community
44:00And we have here
44:02the headquarters
44:03Here you will notice
44:04which also
44:05have
44:05some steps
44:07these steps
44:09They don't have
44:09a significance
44:11or a symbol
44:13liturgical
44:13but simply
44:15It's for meeting up
44:16higher
44:17so that people
44:18see it
44:18because if they were
44:20well at the level
44:21of the presbytery
44:22and the altar
44:23in the middle
44:23well, not anymore
44:24It would no longer be seen
44:25to the priest
44:26it must remain
44:26then higher
44:28so that?
44:30so that people
44:30I can see it
44:31can be
44:34of different materials
44:35as we see
44:36in this temple
44:37because everything is made of wood
44:38but they can be
44:39marble
44:40granite
44:41or stone
44:42in order to be able to
44:43we then
44:44have
44:45an integration
44:46with everything else
44:47These are already issues
44:48well, many times
44:49of architectural type
44:51that
44:52well
44:53each church
44:55all that we
44:56we know
44:56well they can be
44:57different
44:58and finally
45:15Well, we have
45:16the altar
45:17the altar
45:19which it must be
45:19always
45:20stone
45:21like us
45:23we can see
45:23on this altar
45:24have
45:28a stone
45:29generally
45:29marble
45:30for
45:32mean
45:33the sacrifice
45:34but at the same time
45:36time
45:36have
45:38a tablecloth
45:40which makes it
45:44not only
45:44In a place
45:45of sacrifice
45:47but it turns it
45:48In a place
45:49where it is prepared
45:50dinner
45:51of the Lord
45:51today
45:53after
45:54council
45:54Vatican
45:55second
45:55we have resumed
45:57the concept
45:58also
45:58dinner
45:59of the Lord
46:00thing that
46:01in times
46:02a bit
46:03older
46:05only
46:05HE
46:06it was given
46:07emphasis
46:08TRUE
46:08it was given
46:09priority
46:10to the topic
46:11of the sacrifice
46:12so much so
46:14that
46:14It had to be celebrated
46:16about a small
46:17little square
46:18which is already in most
46:19of the new ones
46:19altars
46:20It no longer exists
46:21and that it was called
46:22Ara
46:22which was a
46:24small square
46:25in which there was
46:26a relic
46:28a relic
46:29of a saint
46:29because
46:30the first Christians
46:32used to
46:33celebrate
46:34the sacrifice
46:35of the Eucharist
46:36over the remains
46:37of a martyr
46:38that had
46:39also
46:39sacrificed
46:41was this connection
46:43with the sacrifice
46:44was this connection
46:45with the blood
46:46was this connection
46:47with the testimony
46:48was this connection
46:50with life
46:51that connects us
46:52directly
46:53with Jesus Christ
46:54nowadays
46:55not all altars
46:57they say
46:57with a relic
46:59or with an element
47:00that connects them
47:02here in this temple
47:04Thank God
47:04we have a relic
47:06but it's not necessary
47:08today have
47:08this type of elements
47:10but
47:12who can have them
47:13In fact, then
47:14in many seminars
47:15basilicas
47:17in the end
47:17still have
47:19the relics
47:20of some saint
47:21stop there
47:22about this testimony
47:24of love
47:25integration
47:26to Christ Jesus
47:27from there
47:28celebrate us
47:29also
47:30the holy sacrifice
47:31of the mass
47:32as we were saying
47:33It also has today
47:34these characteristics
47:36of
47:37stake
47:39of a banquet
47:40Jesus invites us
47:41to eat her body
47:42and drink.
47:43his blood
47:44And these would be
47:45these three places
47:47the word
47:48the presidency
47:50and the celebration
47:52sacrificial
47:53we also talked
47:55from a place
47:56what is
47:57the credenza
47:58where we're going to see
48:00a little further on
48:01that right here
48:02that's where we put
48:04all the
48:06sacred vessels
48:07that's where we'll find
48:08everything necessary
48:10for the celebration
48:11Right now, as you can see
48:12because it's empty
48:13because only
48:14we are illustrating
48:15at the moment
48:17the places
48:18of the temple
48:19And this is the place
48:20is called
48:21credenza
48:21Some call him
48:22credence
48:23And that's where
48:25we're going to have
48:26everything necessary
48:27for our celebration
48:29We also have
48:30with some chairs
48:31where you can
48:32sit
48:32all the ministers
48:34in such a way
48:34that all those who
48:35Let's go celebrate
48:36the Eucharist
48:37Let's be in this
48:38holy place
48:39to celebrate
48:40the holy sacrifice
48:42of the mass
48:43And so we have
48:44that in a place
48:45holy
48:45meets
48:47the people
48:47of the saints
48:48that we are
48:50all the baptized
48:51to have
48:52access
48:53to the saint
48:54of the saints
48:55what is
48:56Christ
48:56that is offered
48:57in his word
48:58and in her body
48:59to feed ourselves
49:00maybe right now
49:16they will wonder
49:18some of the things
49:19that we could have
49:20that we would have left
49:21doubt
49:22after watching
49:23well these places
49:24I'll say good
49:24and
49:25Maria
49:27well then
49:28This really
49:30It does not foresee it
49:31the council
49:33It does not tell us
49:34that it has to have
49:35a place
49:36within the presbytery
49:38however
49:39well
49:39part of
49:40of the mystery
49:41of Jesus
49:41we cannot
49:42separate
49:43to Mary
49:43of the mystery
49:44of Jesus
49:45and well then
49:45This really
49:46would already be
49:47personal devotion
49:48TRUE
49:48here
49:49well some
49:50priests
49:51communities
49:52more than priests
49:53they can put
49:54For example
49:55the image
49:56of his saint
49:56the patron saint
49:58or they can put
49:59as in this case
49:59the image
50:00of the most holy
50:01Virgin Mary
50:02I've always wanted
50:03well, keep it
50:05near
50:05of the moment
50:07of the Eucharist
50:08because it has
50:09a strong relationship
50:10Mary with the Eucharist
50:11and with the mystery
50:12of Jesus
50:12So, well then
50:14here in this presbytery
50:15have
50:15the image
50:16of Mary
50:17This could be
50:19or it cannot be
50:20This is a situation
50:21which will depend a lot
50:22of the communities
50:23and of the priest
50:24and how it goes
50:26organizing
50:27well the part
50:29architectural
50:30the part
50:31also emotional
50:33of our presbytery
50:35here we
50:36We have the Virgin
50:36Maria
50:37but it could be
50:38any other image
50:39from some other
50:40of some other saint
50:41with this practically
50:43We finished
50:44our development
50:45of what it is
50:46the presbytery
50:48the places
50:49saints
50:50this place
50:50where we come from
50:51to meet
50:52with God
50:53that within
50:54of the celebration
50:55Eucharistic
50:56it manifests
50:57in a way
50:58particular
50:58special
50:59God is in everything
51:00parts
51:01Yeah
51:01but this is
51:02the place
51:03holy
51:03has been consecrated
51:05has been separated
51:06And that's why here
51:07the saints
51:09all our
51:09siblings
51:10all those who
51:11participate
51:12of the celebration
51:13Eucharistic
51:14well together
51:15with the
51:15priests
51:16and all
51:17that we have taken
51:18our life
51:19of holiness
51:19from baptism
51:20Here we give
51:22glory and worship
51:23bye
51:23our lord
51:24through
51:24of the celebration
51:26I hope everything
51:27This will help us.
51:28to understand a little
51:29better
51:29what is
51:30the temple
51:31and in this way
51:32Well, respect it.
51:33further
51:33and let it be
51:34truly a place
51:36meeting
51:37with God
51:38not simply
51:39a place
51:39where we meet
51:40but really
51:41a place
51:42meeting
51:43with God
