The fire of the Word: from Easter to Pentecost

The fire of the Word inflames the hearts of Jesus’ disciples and makes them into one heart and one soul: the paschal gift of the Son’s life spreads over humanity, which can finally live by the very breath of God.  La Bibbia si apre a Pasqua contains writings where Scripture, liturgy and theology once again unite seventeen scholars in search of the red thread of Pentecost, between the Old and New Testaments. As part of the liturgical reading of the Bible, the various contributions aim to offer a commentary on the readings proclaimed on the Solemnity, following the path of the celebrations, where each element finds its meaning in relation to others. Step by step the lectionary of the Vigil and the Mass of the day is followed, while two with – synthetic tributes give a hermeneutic key to the entire path. If the Bible is the «soul of theology», this soul finds its home in the liturgy. Here the Word is proclaimed and heard, here it catches fire and is realized: the body of the Scriptures is revealed to be the body of Christ, true food. It is in the liturgy that the first word of God takes place in fullness, although still veiled: «”Let there be light!”. And it was light». Here is the cover.
