Liturgy - "The Kingdom of Heaven Happening" - Thoughts on Cartea deschisă a Împărăţiei. O însoţire liturgică pentru preoţi şi mireni

Summary/Abstract: Liturgical mystery, intimate significations claimed by Divine Liturgy need to be apprehended for facilitating the birth of experience act, thirst of living what we hear. If we don’t understand (not necessary logically), we cannot experience the liturgical meanings, and, without such experience, we can’t understand them. The theological premises of living are apprehension and interpretation of liturgical acts and canons. The hermeneutic practice (having the meaning of askisis) on the text of Divine Liturgy has the virtue to make us immune to the wave of “liturgical crisis” which infests nowadays society. H.H. Bartolomeu offers us this kind of hermeneutic askisis. Cartea deschisă a Împărăţiei. O însoţire liturgică pentru pentru preoţi şi mireni (The Opened Book of Kingdom. A Liturgical Convoy for Priest and Laics) is a good medicine/remedy for the subjects of liturgical boredom. It has the power to regenerate the liturgical instance and function in ourselves. Written in a fresh manner, approaching directly the text of the Liturgy, being fascinating in its discourse and expression, Cartea deschisă a Împărăţiei truly has the virtue to bring us into the liturgical Kingdom. The internal architecture of this hermeneutic study on Divine Liturgy has marvelous coherence and beauty. The poetical form couples with the liturgical base while the aphoristic saying neighbors with the theological discourse.
