THE Holy Sacrifice of the MASS through the Rosary

Five Sorrowful WOUNDS of the REDEMPTION


7 — SCOURGING ...

 

Pilate wanted to deflect the intention of the Sanhedrin, yet the crafty scourging will only amplify the uncontrolled thirst of the demanding crowd. In the mass, however, the washing of the hands signifies the purity of the soul that is necessary for us (ie: Simon of Cyrene) to help in the bearing of the Cross, through our own mortification.

 

 

Receive, O holy Trinity, this oblation offered up by us to Thee in memory of the passion, resurrection, and ascension of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and in honor of blessed Mary, ever a virgin, of blessed John the Baptist, of the holy apostles Peter and Paul, of these, and of all the saints, that it may be available to their honor and to our salvation; and may they whose memory we celebrate on earth vouchsafe to intercede for us in heaven. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen 

The mediation of OLJC is the principle of the derivative mediation of the Blessed Mother, Peter and Paul and of all the other saints that we pray to, in order for them to intercede.
