SECOND ANTIPHON: O Adonaï (18 December) ~ Dom Prosper Guéranger

About this sermon

“O Adonai, and Leader of the House of Israel, who appeared to Moses in the burning bush and gave him the Law on Sinai: come and redeem us with outstretched arm.” On December 18, the Church chants the great O Antiphon: O Adonai, invoking Christ as Sovereign Lord, Lawgiver, and Redeemer. This ancient Advent chant recalls God’s revelation to Moses in fire and thunder—yet contrasts it with the humility of Christ’s coming in Bethlehem. This meditation reflects on the mystery of divine humility: ➡️ The Lawgiver wrapped in swaddling clothes ➡️ The Almighty choosing weakness ➡️ Salvation not by terror, but by love As the Blessed Virgin Mary prepares for the Nativity, the Lord who once shook Sinai now comes silently to save us.
