Rorate Caeli

He has other matters to attend to

Surely, many of our readers know by now of the reports that, according to Rabbi Jacob Neusner, the Pope has indicated that the upcoming Volume 2 of Jesus of Nazareth will be his last book.

“Last January, when I met the Pope in Rome,” Neusner wrote over the weekend for Milan’s Corriere della Sera, “I asked him what he would write when he finished this book. Smiling, he replied, ‘Nothing else. This is my last book. I have other matters to attend to.’”


One can only hope and pray that this is a signal for major changes and reforms in the remaining years of the reign of Pope Benedict XVI. The faithful have suffered and been scattered for far too long.
