Christmas - O Antiphon 1 - Sapentia

The O Antiphons - Sapientia In some parts of the church they use as part of their Christmas worship, these seven O antiphons. Each of them addresses Jesus Christ using a Messianic title drawn from Old Testament prophecy. Read backwards, the initials of each title in Latin form the words “Ero Cras” or "Tomorrow I come" – looking forward to the second coming of Jesus Christ. The seven antiphons which we will look at individually over the next 7 days are: Sapientia - Wisdom Adonai - Holy Lord Radix Jesse - Root of Jesse Clavis David - Key of David Oriens - Morning Star Rex Gentium - King of the Nations Emmanuel - God with us Today our Antiphon is Sapientia. Our Old Testament readings are: Isaiah 11:1-3 Isaiah 28:29.   Right Mouse click or tap here to save this as an audio mp3 file
