TheEducationQuestioninEngland

Theaimofthisarticleistobringbeforethereader'sconsideration, theHistory,Mystery,andCompletionofEastonbeforethePaschalTime isover.

History.

AbbotGueranger,0.S.B.,inhis monumentalwork,"TheLiturgical Year,"beginsthePaschalTimewith thefollowingsentence:"Wegivethe nameofPaschalTimetotheperiod betweenEasterSundayandtheSaturdayfollowingWhitSunday."These wordsmarkthebeginningandtheend ofEaster,andtheEasterseason,in theChurchLiturgy.Sundayisthe startingpoint,andtheSaturdayfollowingWhitSundayistheendofthis holytime.

Sunday,whichisthefirstdayofthe week,wasconsecratedinthebeginningoftheworldby,thecreationof light."AndGodsaid:Belightmade andthelightwasmade."(Bookof Genesis.)ItreceivedasecondconsecrationbytheResurrectionofChrist, theTrueLightoftheworld.Itisno wonder,inviewofthesefacts,that Sundayshouldhavestoodout,inthe eyesoftheapostles,astheholiestday oftheweek,andthatitshouldhave beenchosenastheweeklydayforworship,andastheannualdayforthe celebrationoftheChristianPasch.

ButtheApostle,didmorethan choosetheSundayfortheabovesaid holypurposes.Theycommandedthe firstChristianstokeepitastheLord's Day,insteadoftheSaturday;andalso thattheChristianPaschshouldnever becelebratedonthefourteenthofthe monthofMarch-thedayoftheJewish Pasch-butontheSundayfollowing thatday.ThisApostolicDecreewas likeadeath-blowtotheJewishSabbath,andamortalstroketotheJewish Pasch.Thingswereboundtobeso withtheJews.TheOldTestament beingbutashadowoftheNewTestament,itstoodtoreason,andwas necessary,thatChristianityshould breakitstieswiththeSynagogue,and declareheremancipationbyfixingthe greatestofherfeastsonadaywhich shouldneveragreewiththatofthe Jews.

TotheEastthedateofthenew Paschwasastumbling-block.Unity, whichisanessentialpointofChristian worship,demandeduniformityinsolemnisingthePasch.However,onaccountofthemanyJewswhohadreceivedBaptism,thispointhadtobe introducedpraduallyanditshandling requiredgreatprudenceandtacton thepartoftheRomanPontiff.

Variousattemptsweremade,before theCouncilofNicetookplace-beginningoffourthcentury-inorderto establishuniformityonthispointbetweenRomeandAsia;butitwasnot untilthisCouncilwasheld,inthe reignofConstantinetheGreat,which waspresidedoverbyHosius,Bishopof Cordova,astherepresentativeofPope Sylvester.thatanagreementwasarrivedat.

ThisCouncillaiddowntheruleof takingthe21st.ofMarchastheday oftheVernalEquinox.Owing,however.toastronomicalmiscalculations, thisrulewasnotuniformlykeptup; andalthoughEasterwaskeptona Sundayyet,ithappenedtobeadifferentoneindifferentplaces.

Inviewofthemisunderstandings abouttheVernalEquinox,areform oftheCalendarwasdeemednecessary. Apparentlyitwascompetentlybrought al,outbyPopeGregoryXIII.inthe sixteenthcentury.PopeGregory,by aBulldatedFebruary20,1581,restoredtheVernalEquinoxtothe21st.of March,whichrestorationheeffected bysuppressingtendaysofthefollowingyear,viz.fromthe4th.tothe 15thofOctober.Easter,according tothisarrangement,willfallonthe Sundayfollowingthefullmoonofthe VernalEquinox.Itsdatefixesthat oftheotherchiefmovablefeastsofthe year IL-Mystery.

TheoutstandingmysteryofChrist's Resurrection,besidestheproofofHis ownDivinity,istherestorationofmankindtothelifeofgrace.Itisnot Jesusalonewhoreturnstolife;the wholehumanraceriseswithHim fromthedeathofsin.Manwas createdbyGodingrace,inthebeginning,witharighttoHeaven.But suchagraceandsucharightwasfor. feitedthroughAdam'ssin,thefirst manandfatherofmankind.How noblemanwas.withGod'sfriendship! But,alas;howdegradedandmiserablewithoutGod'sgrace!Highideals aregone.Themind,biasedbypas sions,isnolongeramistress.Thus man,insteadofrisingwiththewings ofreasonupwardstowardsheaven, sinksdownlowerandlowertothe samelevelwithirrationalanimals,and lowerstilltothe"atesofhell.

Butinordertoprovethatitwasa priceDivine,worththewholeworld, andathousandworlds,Christ,theVictim;roseupaConquerorthethird dayafterHisdeath.Christ,consequentlyisGod.HerosebyHisown power.HisBloodistheBloodof God,worth,certainly,thesoulofman.

Oh!Suchamystery!Sucha grace!SuchaPasch!JesusChrist risesfromHisdeath,andmanrises, too,throughHim,fromthedeathof sin.HowtrulyAbbotGueranger saysthat:"Onthisday-Easter-the missionoftheWordIncarnateattains theobjecttowardswhichithashithertobeenunceasinglytending;mankind israisedupfromhisfall,andregains whathehadlostbyAdam'ssin." Christmasgivesusaman-God;Good Friday,thePreciousBloodofthe DivineVictim;Easter,theConqueror ofDeath.Ortousethesublimeand God-givenwordsofSt.Paul:"Bya mancamedeath,andbyamanthe Resurrectionfromthedead;andasin Adamalldie,soalsoinChristall shallbemadealive."
