Mary was the “Ark of the Covenant” in the sense that her womb contained the maker of the Law she made God present to humankind in the incarnation of the Son.This course is designed to provide you with the customer service skills that Strophe, and other employers, are looking for. And in the ark were placed the Commandments of the Law-God’s covenant with Israel. It was a symbol of God’s presence to Israel. ![]() In Chapters 25 and 40 of Exodus there is a description of the Ark of the Covenant. Mary is the “Morning Star” that heralds the coming of Jesus, the sun of justice and the dawning of the day of redemption. That is because it appears in the eastern sky just before or at sunrise. If you look in the dictionary, you may discover that the Planet Venus is called the morning star. Mary was the temple of God her womb “housed” the Lord. The author writes that the entire temple was overlaid with gold! (6:22) So, too, the altar and many of the furnishings were of gold (7:48-50). In her is the wealth of grace that comes from union with God.Ĭhapters 6 and 7 in First Kings describe the temple that Solomon built. Lovasik, then, calls Mary a “Tower of Ivory” reaching to the heavens as a sign of peace. Wealthy people among the ancients lined their palaces with ivory. “Ivory” is suggestive of peace, wealth and joyous feasting. Lovasik sees the Church as the new Jerusalem and Mary as the strong point in the Church’s fight against evil. It was so strong it survived Rome’s destruction of the city of Jerusalem. Mary, the queen of saints, can be called then the “Mystical Rose” and in her are found the mystical mysteries.Īccording to Lovasik, the “Tower of David” was the strongest tower in the wall of Jerusalem. Goodness and holiness flower in the saints. The rose is regarded as the queen of flowers. And she herself possessed and practiced true wisdom in the highest degree. Mary can be called the “Seat of Wisdom” because wisdom became incarnate in her son Jesus whom she carried in her womb. Mary was perfectly responsive to the will of God thus, she is the reflection of God’s own holiness. Lovasik (The MacMillan Company), in biblical language justice is the perfect observance of God’s commandments. Over the years the Church added the invocations, “Queen conceived without sin,” “Queen assumed into heaven,” “Queen of the Most Holy Rosary” and “Queen of peace.” In 1980 the Congregation for Sacraments and Divine Worship directed that the invocation “Mother of the Church” be inserted at the proper place.Īccording to Our Lady in Catholic Life, by Lawrence G. Pope Sixtus V gave approval to the prayer in 1587. The Litany of the Blessed Virgin is sometimes called the Litany of Loreto, because we know it was used at the Shrine of Our Lady of Loreto, as early as 1558. The Dictionary speculates that the Litany of the Blessed Virgin originated in Paris. The form of the litany was modeled on the earlier Litany of the Saints. Each of 24 strophes (parts or stanzas) began with a succeeding letter of the Greek alphabet and concluded alternately with “Rejoice, O Virgin Spouse” and “Alleluia.” Many of the praises in the litany came from prayers of the Greek Church, in particular the Akathist Hymn which was to be sung standing out of reverence for the Incarnation. According to the Dictionary of Mary, published by Catholic Book Publishing Company, the Litany of the Blessed Virgin has a long history. From where did the Litany of the Blessed Virgin come? And what do the titles “Mirror of Justice,” “Seat of Wisdom,” “Mystical Rose,” “Tower of David,” “Tower of Ivory,” “House of Gold,” “Morning Star” and “Ark of the Covenant” mean?Ī. ![]() In our parish a group of us gather before Mass to pray the rosary and the Litany of the Blessed Mother.
