Liturgy of the Hours: On the Specific Hours – Video 11

 Liturgy and Sacraments Video #11. Dr. Marcellino D’Ambrosio (“Dr. Italy”) discusses the particular Hours in the Liturgy of the Hours, also known as the Divine Office.

In this video we continue our conversation about the Liturgy of the Hours, going over the specific Hours in the current Roman Rite of the Catholic Church.  We’ll learn what these Hours mean and what purpose they serve.  It’s important to know the rhyme and reason of their arrangement, and the wisdom behind the development of these Hours, both from the perspective of Tradition and more recent revisions instituted by the Magisterium.

This video is the eleventh session of Theology 552 of the Catholic Distance University course Liturgy and Sacraments..
