John 19:4-5 Exiit iterum Pilatus foras et dicit eis ecce adduco vobis eum foras ut cognoscatis quia in eo nullam causam invenio et purpureum vestimentum et dicit eis ecce homo . Pilate therefore went forth again and saith to them: Behold, I bring him forth unto you, that you may know that I find no cause in him. (Jesus therefore came forth, bearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment.) And he saith to them: "Behold the Man." Update and Note : The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is not celebrated anywhere in the world on Good Friday . Some Parishes will have the traditional "Passion service" held at 3:00 PM (which in the Extraordinary Form is called the "Good Friday Office") and/or Stations of the Cross. When a Passion Service is held, the altar is totally bare. There is Veneration of the Cross and Holy Communion--consecrated on Holy Thursday and held in repose--is distributed to the faithful. There is also no Mass on Holy Saturday until the Easter V

WDTPRS: PRAYERCAzT 23: Passion of St. John (Good Friday – 1962 Missale Romanum)

As you may know, last week Fr. John of WDTPRS released the Passion of Saint Matthew as a Podcazt just before Palm Sunday . It had the Passionalia --all three parts were sung by him. It is archived last week on this blog. Today he has released again the Podcazt for the Passion of Saint John before Good Friday . Just wanted you to know it is available in MP3! Finally, some of you are stopping by and failing to find my prior post on the Latin readings for the Triduum ! As I stated just a few days ago, only a written Missal (like the new Baronius F.S.S.P. edition, Summorum Pontificum ) will have ALL the approved text . The next best thing is from the Tridentine Latin Rite Missal Project . I haven't checked all the text word for word, but the "post-1955 links" should "be close to rendering" what has been approved by Summorum Pontificum . That is not a guarantee, however. Note also that this is a work in progress.
