If I understand it correctly, the Traditional Mass is the Christian reality prefigured by the Daily Bread Offering of the Mosaic Law: the Todah or bread of thanksgiving. Scott Hahn has a very good book written about this where one can find lots of great information: The Lamb's Supper: The Mass as Heaven on Earth. Here I quote from the presentation of that book in the internet: Of all things Catholic, there is nothing that is so familiar as the Mass. With its unchanging prayers, the Mass … [Read more...]
