Verily, Verily I Say Unto You
Verily, verily, I say unto you: except ye eat the flesh of the son of man, and drink his
blood, ye have no life in you. Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath
eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is meat indeed, and my
blood is drink indeed. He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me,
and I in him.

-----------------------FEBRUARY 2nd PRESENTATION OF CHRIST, CANDLEMAS
This event is described in the Gospel of Luke (Luke 2:22-40). According to the
gospel, Mary and Joseph took the infant Jesus to the Temple in Jerusalem forty
days (inclusive) after his birth to complete Mary’s ritual purification after
childbirth, and to perform the redemption of the firstborn son, in obedience to
the Torah (Leviticus 12, Exodus 13:12-15,etc.). Luke explicitly says that
Joseph and Mary take the option provided for poor people (those who could
not afford a lamb; Leviticus 12:8), sacrificing “A pair of turtle doves, or two
young pigeons.” Leviticus 12:1-4 indicates that this event should take place
forty days after birth for a male child, hence the Presentation is celebrated
forty days after Christmas.
Upon bringing Jesus into the temple, they encountered Simeon. The
Gospel records that Simeon had been promised that “he should not see death
before he had seen the Lord’s Christ” (Luke 2:26). Simeon then uttered the
prayer that would become known as the Nunc Dimittis, or Canticle of Simeon,
which prophesied the redemption of the world by Jesus:
“LORD, now lettest Thou Thy servant depart in peace; according to
Thy word: for mine eyes have seen Thy salvation, which Thou hast prepared
before the face of all people to be a light to lighten the Gentiles and to be the
glory of Thy people Israel” (Luke 2:29-32).
Simeon then prophesied to Mary: “Behold, this child is set for the
falling and the rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which is spoken against.
Yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul, that the thoughts of many
hearts may be revealed” (Luke 2:34-35).
The elderly prophetess Anna was also in the Temple, and offered
prayers and praise to God for Jesus, and spoke to everyone there of His
importance to redemption in Jerusalem (Luke 2:36-38).
The term “Candlemas” (or Candle Mass), refers to the practice of
blessing beeswax candles for use throughout the year, some of which are
distributed to the faithful for use in the home.
FEBRUARY 3rd Anskar, Missionary and Bishop was a monk of Saxon
family, born in 801, in Amiens in France. In 826, when King Harald of
Denmark asked Charlemagne’ successor, Louis the Pious, for missionaries,
Anskar led a group to Denmark, and a few years later to Sweden. Because of
unsettled political conditions, his work ran into difficulties, and Anskar
withdrew into Germany, where he served as first Archbishop of Hamburg.
Later, however, he helped to consecrate Gotbert, the first bishop of Sweden.
The Church of Sweden honours him as its apostle.
FEBRUARY 11th Caedmon is the earliest English poet whose name is
known. An Anglo-Saxon who cared for the animals at the double monastery
of Whitby Abbey during the abbacy (657-680) of St Hilda (614-680), he was
originally ignorant of “the art of song” but learned to compose one night in the
course of a dream, according to the 8th-century historian Bede. He later became
a zealous monk and an accomplished and inspirational Christian poet. His
story is related in the “Ecclesiastical History of the English People” by Bede
who wrote:
“[t]here was in the Monastery of this Abbess a certain brother particularly
remarkable for the Grace of God, who was wont to make religious verses, so
that whatever was interpreted to him out of scripture, he soon after put the
same into poetical expressions of much sweetness and humility in Old English,
which was his native language. By his verse the minds of many were often
excited to despise the world, and to aspire to heaven.”
Caedmon’s only known surviving work is Caedmon’s Hymn, the nineline alliterative vernacular praise poem in honour of God which he supposedly
learned to sing in his initial dream.
Now [we] must honour the guardian of heaven,
the might of the architect, and his purpose,
the work of the father of glory [41] - as he the beginning of wonders
established, the eternal lord.
He first created for the children of men [42]
heaven as a roof, the holy creator
Then the middle earth, the guardian of mankind
the eternal lord, afterwards appointed
the lands for men, [43] the Lord almighty.
