Abstract

The article focuses on the unique nature of homilies within the Mass, emphasizing that their essence lies in their oral delivery rather than in any written form. Topics include the distinction between preaching and teaching, the performative nature of homilies as a form of direct communication from Jesus, and the limitations of recorded or transcribed homilies.
