THIRD SUNDAY OF LENT MARCH 19, 2017 Pg.4
ST. PETER THE APOSTLE
CANONICAL- LITURGICAL FORUM
BY FR. GEM BANDIVAS, JCL, MBA, PhD
Tridentine Mass (Traditional Latin Mass)
Dear Father Gem: I am currently studying Canon Law at
the Pontifical University of Santo Tomas. One of our
professors told us that the Tridentine Mass (Latin Mass of
Pius V) had been abrogated by Paul VI. If Paul VI
abrogated it, why then Pope Benedict XVI allowed for its
continued celebration? Does the validity of an action
depend on the intention of the legislator or the one
carrying out the act? Why are we calling the Tridentine
Mass the Extraordinary Form? What then is the Ordinary
Form, if ever there is any? I am a little bit confused.
Comment please.
G.C., Manila
Dear G.C.: The Tridentine Mass, is derived from the Latin
Tridentinus, "related to the city of Tridentum" (modern-day
Trent, Italy). In response to a decision of the Council of Trent,
Pope Pius V promulgated the 1570 Roman Missal, making it
mandatory throughout the Latin Church, except in places and
religious orders with missals from before 1370.
The real issue here I think is whether or not the
Tridentine Mass of Pius V was ever formally abrogated.
In 2007, Pope Benedict XVI issued the motu proprio
Summorum Pontificum, accompanied by a letter to the world's
bishops authorizing use of the Tridentine Mass and Ritual for
competent priests. The Pope stated that the 1962 edition of
the Roman Missal is to be considered an "extraordinary
form" (forma extraordinaria) of the Roman Rite, of which the
1970 Mass of Paul VI (the Novus Ordo Missae) is the
ordinary, normal or standard form. Pope Francis seems to
prefer calling the Extraordinary Form the Vetus Ordo, or Old
Form, which lines up nicely given that the Ordinary Form is
also called the Novus Ordo, or New Form.
Pope Benedict XVI in Summorum Pontificum
stipulates: It is, therefore, permitted to celebrate the
Sacrifice of the Mass following the typical edition of the
Roman Missal, which was promulgated by Blessed John
XXIII in 1962 and never abrogated, as an extraordinary
form of the Churchs Liturgy. Considering, therefore, that
Pope Benedict XVI has said it was never abrogated, then that
is the case.
While Paul VI never made a formal declaration
abrogating the earlier missal, and in some specific cases
allowed for its continued celebration, some people believed
that it had been abrogated in virtue of a canonical principle as
articulated in canons 20-21 of the Code of Canon Law:
Canon 20. A later law abrogates, or derogates from,
an earlier law if it states so expressly, is directly contrary to it,
or completely reorders the entire matter of the earlier law. A
universal law, however, in no way derogates from a particular
or special law unless the law expressly provides otherwise.
Canon 21 stipulates: In a case of doubt, the
revocation of a pre-existing law is not presumed, but later
laws must be related to the earlier ones and, insofar as
possible, must be harmonized with them.
HENDERSON, NV Pg.5
Since the rites of the ordinary form completely
reordered the matter of liturgical worship, some people might
have presumed that the new rites abrogated the earlier.
As Canon 21 points out, however, this cannot be
presumed in cases of doubt. It must also be pointed out that
the bulk of liturgical law is not found in the Code of Canon
Law and is expressly excluded from its province, thus Canon
2: For the most part the Code does not define the rites which
must be observed in celebrating liturgical actions. Therefore,
liturgical laws in force until now retain their force unless one of
them is contrary to the canons of the Code.
The answer is given in the 2011 instruction Universae
Ecclesiae, on the Application of the Apostolic Letter
Summorum Pontificum of His Holiness Benedict XVI, issued
by the Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei. To wit:
27. With regard to the disciplinary norms connected to
celebration, the ecclesiastical discipline contained in the Code
of Canon Law of 1983 applies.
The answer to the question, therefore, is both yes and
no. The 1983 canonical discipline, and all other liturgical law
since 1962, applies except when it is incompatible with the
1962 rubrics.
Thus, for example, the norms regarding the use of
Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion, authorized in
earlier documents but incorporated into the 1983 code, would
be incompatible with the 1962 rubrics and so they would not
be applicable to the extraordinary form.
On the other hand, disciplinary norms in the Code that
touch upon the sacraments would generally be applicable no
matter what form of the Roman rite was used. Examples here
would include the requirements for being a godparent; the
higher minimum age for ordination to the priesthood; the
norms for marriage impediments; the broadening of the
possibilities for exposing the Blessed Sacrament; and the
extension of faculties for hearing confession beyond the
diocese. These are not ceremonial norms and thus do not
generally affect the rubrics in one way or the other.
A similar criterion could also be applied to norms
issued after the promulgation of the code. For example, the
decisions made by the Holy See regarding the validity of the
use of mustum for celebrating Mass by priests afflicted by
alcoholism or of the use of low gluten bread for sufferers of
celiac disease would also be applicable to those who
habitually celebrate or attend the extraordinary form.
In conclusion, the Supreme authority in the Church,
always has the authority to make changes to ecclesiastical
discipline, such as the liturgical forms that cloak the essential
matter and form of a sacrament. Pius XII made changes,
John XXIII made changes, Vatican II proposed changes, and
Pope Paul VI and Pope John Paul II have made changes. All
Catholics, therefor, should respect the teaching and authority
of the Church whether manifested through a Council or a
Pope.

Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,
Soon our diocese will be taking up The Catholic Relief
Services Collection (CRSC). By participating in this
collection, you are responding to Jesus in disguise in
some of the most marginalized communities in our
world. The CRSC provides services for immigrants,
humanitarian aid in the wake of natural disasters, refuge
for the displaced, and advocacy for peace and justice
around the world. Let us join together in this collection
to support those suffering and on the margins of society.
Africa are adversely affecting poor and rural farmers.
No matter how hard these farmers work, droughts are
shortening the rainy season, leaving harvests too small
to support families and communities. Your support of
the CRSC is helping connect businesses that provide
drought-resistant seeds to these communities. These
new relationships are providing hope to these
communities for a sustainable future.
Your support of this collection makes a difference for
so many around the world. Please prayerfully consider
how you can support the collection this year. If you
want to learn more about the collection and the people
who benefit, please visit www.usccb.org/catholic-relief.
Support the collection and answer the knock of Jesus in
disguise.
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Most Reverend Joseph A. Pepe, D.D., J.C.D.
Bishop of Las Vegas
