Aprašymas

Prominent liturgical scholar, John Baldovin, SJ, offers a theology of the priest in relation to the celebration of the Eucharist.

The theology of the ordained priesthood has been unfinished business following Vatican II, especially with regard to the priest as sacramental minister. In Servants of the Mysteries, John Baldovin brings the theology and sacramental practice of Catholic priests in line with Vatican II's commitment to full, active and conscious participation of all the faithful in the liturgy in light of insights from contemporary Catholic theology of the Eucharist.

A comprehensive theology of the sacramental role of the priest has long been missing. After forty years of teaching and writing on the relation between ordained priesthood and the Eucharist, Baldovin helps fill that lacuna. Servants of the Mysteries provides a way forward for a greater understanding and appreciation for the role and practice of the priest in presiding in and from the thought and vision of the Council.
