Abstract

This study analyzes the silent prayer formulas of the priest (and deacon) in the Ordo Missae of the Missale Romanum (2008). It aims to uncover the origins, historical evolution, and liturgical meaning and function of these texts. Through this investigation, the processes of formulation, preservation, and contextual adaptation of the texts throughout history are illuminated, thereby fostering a deeper understanding of their embedded liturgical message. As a literature-based study employing historical and hermeneutical approaches, this research reveals that these silent prayers share a uniform character, serving as a means of personal purification from sin to worthily celebrate the Eucharist. Originally, these prayers were not official ecclesiastical formulations but arose spontaneously as the priest's personal prayers to nurture his interior devotion. The evolution of their usage to the present day demonstrates that the development of a liturgical text is never detached from its historical dimension. Therefore, a comprehensive historical analysis is of paramount importance, given that the meaning of a liturgical text cannot be properly constructed without tracing its history. Within this framework, the hermeneutical approach serves to reinforce and deepen the discovery of that liturgical meaning.
