will dc07ca689f Add the Most Holy Name of Jesus (Jan 2) as a proper temporal feast
Deploy / deploy (push) Successful in 1m21s
Historically a floating Sunday (Jan 2-5, fixed to Jan 2 when no Sunday
falls there); per direct instruction this is instead fixed to Jan 2
every year for simplicity. Adds the feast's collect, Magnificat/
Benedictus antiphons, full Lauds psalmody, capitulum, the three-part
"Jesu dulcis memoria" hymn cycle (Vespers/Matins/Lauds), the Invitatory
antiphon, versicles, and two Matins nocturn readings (both St. Bernard
of Clairvaux), sourced from Tempora/Nat2-0.txt. Reuses the `fixed-date`
anchor kind added in the prior commit.

will f56fb3bd64 Add the Circumcision of Our Lord (Jan 1) as a proper temporal feast
Jan 1 previously fell through to generic Christmastide-feria content with
no identity of its own, despite being Christmas's own Octave Day. Adds a
`fixed-date` anchor kind to calendar/movable-feasts.ts's MovableAnchor
(the existing easter/nth-sunday kinds can't express "always Jan 1"),
plus the feast's collect, Magnificat/Benedictus antiphons, full Lauds
psalmody, capitulum, versicle, and two Matins nocturn readings (Leo the
Great, Ambrose), sourced from Sancti/01-01.txt.

Of angel worlds above;
Thy Name is music to the heart,
Enchanting it with love.
Celestial sweetness unalloyed,
Who eat thee hunger still;
Who drink of thee still feel a void,
Which naught but thou canst fill.
O my sweet Jesu, hear the sigh
Which unto thee I send;
To thee mine inmost spirit cries,
My being's hope and end.
Stay with us, Lord, and with thy light
Illume the soul's abyss;
Scatter the darkness of our night,
And fill the world with bliss.
O Jesu, spotless Virgin's flower,
Our life and joy art thou;
To thee be praise, and might, and power,
Through all eternity.

And in thy presence rest.

O hope of every contrite heart,
O joy of all the meek,
To those who fall, how kind thou art;
How good to those who seek.

Dearly beloved brethren, whosoever will keep truly and honour piously
this day's festival, it is necessary for him neither to think
falsely of the Lord's Incarnation, nor meanly of the Lord's Godhead.
For as there is danger, on the one hand, of denying the truth of
Christ's participation of our nature, so is there no less danger, on
the other, of doing despite to the equality of his glory with the
glory of the Father. Wherefore, when we draw near to understand the
mystery of Christ's Birth, wherein he was born of the Virgin Mary,
we must leave the clouds of earthly imagination behind and pierce
the fog of human wisdom with the eye of enlightened faith.
The authority on which we believe is the authority of God himself;
the teaching which we follow is the teaching of God himself.
Wherefore whether we lend the ear of our mind to the testimony of
the Law, or to the revelations of the Prophets, or to the full
pealing of the Gospel trumpet, that is true, which John the Son of
Thunder uttered, when he was filled with the Holy Ghost, and said:
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the
Word was God. The Same was in the beginning with God. All things
were made by him, and without him was not anything made. True also
is his witness when he saith: The Word was made Flesh, and dwelt
among us, and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the Only-begotten
of the Father.
The Person of the Son of God therefore remaineth unchanged and one,
though he have two natures, keeping his own, and taking ours. He
appeareth as man to be the restorer of men, but abideth all the
while in his immutable Godhead. That Godhead which he shareth with
the Father was not a whit the less Almighty, nor did the form of a
servant touch the form of God to derogate from it. The Most High
and Everlasting Being, bending down for man's salvation, took the
Manhood into his glory; he ceased not to be that which he is from
everlasting. Hence we see the Only-begotten Son of God in one place
confessing that the Father is greater than he, and in another
declaring that he and the Father are One. This is an evident proof
of the distinction of his two natures, and the unity of his Person;
for he is inferior to the Father as touching his Manhood, and yet
equal to the Father as touching his Godhead, and yet, though he be
God and Man, he is not two, but One Christ.

ab Angelo repetíta verba declárant: Quod nascétur, inquit, Sanctum,
vocábitur Fílius Dei.
Solus enim per ómnia ex natis de fémina sanctus Dóminus Jesus, qui
terrénæ contágia corruptélæ, immaculáti partus novitáte non

quómodo sanctus omnis másculus, cum multos sceleratíssimos fuísse
non láteat? Numquid sanctus Achab? numquid sancti pseudoprophétæ,
quos ad Elíæ preces ultor cæléstis injúriæ ignis absúmpsit? Sed ille
sanctus, quem in figúra futúri mystérii pia legis divínæ præscrípta
signábant; eo quod solus sanctæ Ecclésiæ vírginis ad generándos
pópulos Dei, immaculátæ fecunditátis aperíret genitále secrétum.

So the Child is circumcised. This is the Child of whom it is said:
Unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given. Made under the law
to redeem them that were under the law. To present him to the Lord.
What it means in Jerusalem to be presented to the Lord I have
already explained in my Commentary on Isaiah, and therefore I will
not enter into the subject again. He that is circumcised in heart
gaineth the protection of God, for the eyes of the Lord are upon the
righteous. Ye will see that as all the ceremonies of the old law
were types of realities in the new, so the circumcision of the body
signified the cleansing of the heart from the guilt of sin.
But since the body and mind of man remain yet infected with a
proneness to sin, the circumcision of the eighth day is also a type
of that complete cleansing from sin which we shall have at the
resurrection. This ceremony was also performed in obedience to the
commandment of God: Every male that openeth the womb shall be
called holy unto the Lord. These words were written with especial
reference to the delivery of the Blessed Virgin. Truly he That
opened her womb was holy, for he was altogether without spot, and
we may gather that the law was written specially for him from the
words of the Angel: That Holy Thing which shall be born of thee,
shall be called the Son of God.
Among all that are born of women the Lord Jesus Christ stood alone
in holiness. Fresh from his immaculate Birth, he felt no contagion
from human corruption, and his heavenly Majesty drove it away. If we
are to follow the letter and say that every male that openeth the
womb is holy, how shall we explain that so many have been
unrighteous? Was Ahab holy? Were the false prophets holy? Were they
holy on whom Elijah justly called down fire from heaven? But he to
whom the sacred commandment of the law of God is mystically
directed is the Holy One of Israel; who also alone hath opened the
secret womb of his holy Virgin-bride the Church, filling her with a
sinless fruitfulness to give birth to Christian souls.

Non otióse Spíritus Sanctus nomen Sponsi óleo cómparat, cum ita
dóceat sponsam ad Sponsum clamáre: Oleum effúsum nomen tuum. Oleum
enim lucet, pascit et ungit. Fovet ignem, nutrit carnem, lenit
dolórem: lux, cibus, medicína. Vide idem nunc et de Sponsi nómine:
Lucet prædicátum, pascit recogitátum, invocátum lenit et ungit. Et
percurrámus síngula. Unde putas in toto orbe tanta et tam súbita
fídei lux, nisi de prædicáto nómine Jesu? Nonne in hujus nóminis
luce Deus nos vocávit in admirábile lumen suum; quibus illuminátis,
et in lúmine isto vidéntibus lumen, dicat mérito Paulus: Fuístis
aliquándo ténebræ, nunc autem lux in Dómino?
Hoc dénique nomen coram régibus, et géntibus, et fíliis Israël
portáre jussus est idem Apóstolus; et portábat nomen tamquam lumen,
et illuminábat pátriam, et clamábat ubíque: Nox præcéssit, dies
autem appropinquávit. Abiciámus ergo ópera tenebrárum, et induámur
arma lucis, sicut in die honéste ambulémus. Et monstrábat ómnibus
lucérnam super candelábrum, annúntians in omni loco Jesum, et hunc
crucifíxum. Quómodo lux ista resplénduit ac perstrínxit cunctórum
intuéntium óculos, quando de ore Petri, tamquam fulgur egrédiens,
claudi uníus corporáles plantas solidávit et bases, multósque
spirituáliter cæcos illuminávit? Numquid non ignem sparsit, cum
ait: In nómine Jesu Christi Nazaréni surge et ámbula?
Nec tantum lux est nomen Jesu, sed est et cibus. An non tóties
confortáris, quóties recordáris? Quid æque mentem cogitántis
impínguat? Quid ita exercitátos réparat sensus, virtútes róborat,
végetat mores bonos atque honéstos, castas fovet affectiónes?
Aridus est omnis ánimæ cibus, si non óleo isto infúnditur;
insípidus est, si non hoc sale condítur. Si scribas, non sapit
mihi, nisi légero ibi Jesum. Si dísputes aut cónferas, non sapit
mihi, nisi sonúerit ibi Jesus. Jesus mel in ore, in aure melos, in
corde júbilus. Sed est et medicína. Tristátur áliquis nostrum?
Véniat in cor ejus Jesus, et inde sáliat in os. Et ecce ad exórtum
nóminis lumen, núbilum omne díffugit, redit serénum. Lábitur quis
in crimen? currit ínsuper ad láqueum mortis desperándo? Nonne, si
ínvocet nomen vitæ, conféstim respirábit ad vitam?

It is not idly that the Holy Ghost likeneth the Name of the
Bridegroom to oil, when he maketh the Bride say to the Bridegroom:
thy Name is as oil poured forth. Oil indeed giveth light, meat, and
unction. It feedeth fire, it nourisheth the flesh, it sootheth
pain; it is light, food, and healing. Behold, thus also is the
Name of the Bridegroom. To preach it is to give light; to think of
it is to feed the soul; to call on it is to win grace and unction.
Let us take it point by point. What, thinkest thou, hath made the
light of faith so suddenly and so brightly to shine in the whole
world but the preaching of the Name of Jesus? Is it not in the
light of this Name that God hath called us into his marvellous
light, even that light wherewith we, being enlightened, and in his
light seeing light, Paul saith truly of us: Ye were sometimes
darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord?
This is the Name which the Apostle was commanded to bear before
Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel, the Name which he
bore as a light to enlighten his people, crying everywhere: The
night is far spent, the day is at hand; let us therefore cast off
the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light, let
us walk honestly as in the daylight. He pointed out to all that
candle set upon a candlestick, preaching in every place Jesus and
him crucified. How did that Name shine forth and dazzle every eye
that beheld it, when it came like lightning out of the mouth of
Peter to give bodily strength to the feet of the lame man, and to
clear the sight of many a blind soul? Cast he not fire when he
said: In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk?
The Name of Jesus is not a Name of light only, but it is meat
also. Dost thou ever call it to mind, and remain unstrengthened?
Is there anything like it to enrich the soul of him that thinketh
of it? What is there like it to restore the weakened senses, to
fortify strength, to give birth to good lives and pure affections?
The soul is fed on husks if that whereon it feedeth lack
seasoning with this salt. If thou writest, thou hast no meaning
for me if I read not of Jesus there. If thou preach, or dispute,
thou hast no meaning for me if I hear not of Jesus there. The
mention of Jesus is honey in the mouth, music in the ear, and
gladness in the heart. It is our healing too. Is any sorrowful
among us? Let the thought of Jesus come into his heart, and spring
to his mouth. Behold, when the day of that Name beginneth to
break, every cloud will flee away, and there will be a great calm.
Doth any fall into sin? Doth any draw nigh to a hopeless death?
And if he but call on the life-giving Name of Jesus, will he not
draw the breath of a new life again?

Magnum et mirábile sacraméntum! Circumcíditur Puer, et vocátur
Jesus. Quid sibi vult ista connéxio? Circumcísio nempe magis
salvándi, quam Salvatóris esse vidétur; et Salvatórem circumcídere
pótius decet, quam circumcídi. Sed agnósce mediatórem Dei et
hóminum, qui ab ipso nativitátis suæ exórdio divínis humána
sóciat, ima summis. Náscitur ex mulíere, sed cui fecunditátis
fructus sic accédat, ut non décidat flos virginitátis. Pannis
invólvitur; sed panni ipsi angélicis láudibus honorántur.
Abscónditur in præsépio; sed próditur radiánte stella de cælo. Sic
et circumcísio veritátem suscéptæ probat humanitátis; et nomen,
quod est super omne nomen, glóriam índicat majestátis.
Circumcíditur tamquam verus Abrahæ fílius; Jesus vocátur tamquam
verus Fílius Dei.
Mérito sane, dum circumcíditur puer, qui natus est nobis, Salvátor
vocátur; quod vidélicet ex hoc jam cœperit operári salútem
nostram, immaculátum illum pro nobis sánguinem fundens. Neque enim
jam quǽrere est Christiánis, cur volúerit Dóminus Christus
circumcídi. Propter hoc síquidem circumcísus est, propter quod
natus, propter quod passus. Nihil horum propter se, sed ómnia
propter eléctos. Nec in peccáto génitus, nec a peccáto
circumcísus, nec mórtuus est pro peccáto suo; magis autem propter
delícta nostra. Quod vocátum est, inquit, ab Angelo, priúsquam in
útero conciperétur. Vocátum plane, non impósitum: nempe hoc ei
nomen est ab ætérno. A natúra própria habet, ut sit Salvátor:
innátum est ei nomen hoc, non índitum ab humána vel angélica
creatúra.

Behold a mystery, great and full of wonder! The Child is
circumcised, and his Name is called Jesus. Why are these two
things thus mentioned together? It would seem that circumcision
should rather be for the saved than for the Saviour; that the
Saviour ought rather to be Circumciser than circumcised. But
behold here the Mediator between God and men, how even from his
childhood he joineth the things of the Highest to the things of
the lowest, the things of God to the things of men. He is born of
a woman, but her womb is made fruitful without the loss of the
flower of her virginity. He is wrapped in swaddling-bands, but
these swaddling-bands are a theme for the jubilation of angels. He
is laid in a manger, but a bright star standeth in heaven over the
place. So also in his circumcision, the ceremony gave proof of the
reality of the Manhood which he had taken, and that Name which is
above every name proclaimed the glory of his blessed Majesty. As
very son of Abraham he underwent circumcision; he assumed the Name
of Jesus as very Son of God.
It is no wonder that it should be at his circumcision that the
Name of Jesus, being interpreted Saviour, is given to the Child
who is born unto us, for it was then that he for the first time
shed that sinless Blood which is the means whereby he hath chosen
to work out our salvation. It is no matter for the speculation of
Christians why the Lord Christ was pleased to be circumcised. He
was circumcised for the same reason for which he was born, and for
which he suffered. Neither one nor the other was for himself, but
all for the sake of the elect. He was not born in sin; he was not
circumcised to separate him from sin; neither did he die for sins
of his own, but for ours. His Name, it is written, was called
Jesus, which was so named of the Angel before he was conceived in
the womb. The Angel gave him that title, but not for the first
time: Saviour is his Name from everlasting; he hath it of his own
proper nature to save.
