In this book we can share with the Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI, and with the whole Roman Curia the powerful meditations offered to them in the Spiritual Exercises preached by Cardinal Albert Vanhoye on the theme of the acceptance of Christ's priestly mediation in our faith and life. By his death and resurrection, Christ has established a new priesthood, the perfect mediation between God and man, true communion. 'Heartfelt thanks to you for your spiritual guidance, which has been offered with such theological competence and spriitual depth ...you have taught us that the blood of Jesus was, on account of his prayer, "oxegenated" by the Holy Spirit. In this way, it has become the power of resurrection and the source of life.' Pope Benedict XVI Cardinal Albert Vanhoye SJ has served as Rector of the Pontifical Biblical Institute in Rome and as Secretary of the Pontifical Biblical Commission. For thirty years he was Professor of New Testament Exegesis at the Pontifical Biblical Institute, and he took part in the redaction of important documents that develop the teaching of the Second Vatican Council on the interpretation of Sacred Scripture. His other books include Old Testament Priests and the New Priest, also published by Gracewing.
