7 August. 1662 Book of Common Prayer: Name of Jesus.


7 August.  1662 Book of Common Prayer: Name of Jesus.

Another senseless note of little sense at:  http://www.eskimo.com/~lhowell/bcp1662/notes/saints.html#NameJesus .  A sensible and literate Cleric should be running through these sections of the Gospels 2, at least 3, times per month…not some annual event. 

Name of Jesus. Taken from the Sarum Calendar; formerly observed (as was natural) on the Feast of the Circumcision, and in the Roman Church, on the 2nd Sunday after Epiphany. Why it should be placed here, unless in connection with the display of Our Lord's majesty in the Transfiguration, it is hard to say. -- August 7th.
