Praying the Angelus with Art: This Week's Image

https://parker.stanford.edu/parker/actions/thumbnail_view.do?size=basic&ms_no=75&page=208R parker-stanford.jpg


This week's Annunciation is within an Initial D (Dixit dominus—"The Lord said to my Lord, sit at my right hand") from Psalm 1110, an important messianic Psalm that Jesus himself singled out to indicate his divine Sonship.

The page is from a "Glossed Psalter" (Psalter with embedded notes) in the Parker Library of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge.

About the Angelus Project

We rightly admire Muslim neighbors and co-workers who put everything on hold five times a day in answer to the "call to prayer." But Christians have a call to prayer, too! It is the Angelus. Morning, noon and evening we are invited to pause and reaffirm our faith in the Incarnation: The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us (Jn. 1:14), because "God so loved the world that he sent his only Son" (Jn. 3:16).
The Angelus Project is a personal project of Sister Anne Flanagan, FSP, a Daughter of St Paul. Find out more about the media ministry of the Daughters of St Paul at DaughtersofStPaul.com.
