Roman Ritual (Rituale Romanum) edition in Latin-English. Father Weller compiled his set of The Roman Ritual for the clergy” as a manual and reference” and for the laity’s “interest and enthusiasm for the rites and prayers of so important a part of the liturgical books of the Church.”
His indispensable 3-volume set on the Roman Ritual was especially prized for its thoroughness in treating of the liturgical laws pertaining to each rite, as well as his copious and instructive commentaries. A must for any theologian, priest, or seminarian.
This 3 volume set is for the best of any endowed theologians. A universal means of holiness acknowledging that God can do all things through prayer. Even if you are not full priestly consecrated, you can be an instrument of divine worship. Some parts, especially The Blessings, vastly superior to the modern Book of Blessings.
“Wherefore he says, Wake up, [thou] that sleepest, and arise up from among the dead, and the Christ shall shine upon thee.” ~ Ephesians 5:14
