Today a 10 minutes podcast for your Christmas Octave reflections.
Fr. Troadec with a lyrical prayer to the Holy Innocents. Jewish convert and scholar Alfred Edersheim situates the slaughter of the children in the context of salvation history. Card. Bacci slap us around heavily with a reflection on all the hours of our lives and then, finally, that critical final hour on which all depends. Pope Benedict XVI connects the Holy Innocents and Rachel weeping for her children.

Thank you. Can you tell us some of the music sources you use for these recent podcasts? I recognize the Advent disc of the nuns of Gower sometimes but nothing else.
The lamentation by Pope Benedict XVI is incorrect because he cites the Old Testament verse instead of the New Testament verse starting in Matthew2:18.
They have different endings whereas the old verse promises the children will return the new verse does not promise anything. This is a world of difference and is very misleading.
“The image of the ancient mother of the tribe, rising from her tomb to weep, and refusing to be comforted because her children were not around her, is inimitably beautiful; and this image so strikingly portrayed the weeping in Bethlehem that Matthew adopts the words of the prophet”.
