As for the new translation of the Mass, it is (apparently, and for the most part) closer to the Latin, but it is very clumsy English at times. And there has been quite a discussion going on over at Ship of Fools over whether "who for us men and our salvation" is the best English translation of " qui propter nos homines et nostram salutem." |
Glad I'm not the only one. I plan on buying a ELW when I get a chance, and expand from my mostly Anglican collection. I might buy a copy of the Roman Missal, though not sure which. I'm trying to get a hold of the Book of Divine Worship but not sure where to go for that.
