medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture My earlier note was from memory. Not exactly sure what you're wanting me to amplify, John, but now with the MR open in front of me, I can furnish you text references. The gospel pericope for the last Sunday of the church year (XXIV et ultima post Pentecosten) was Mt 24, 15-35. The gospel pericope for the first Sunday of Advent was Lc 21, 25-33. These refer to the end of the world and the coming in glory of Christ the judge to gather his elect. (There is of course debate surrounding the origins, dating and other aspects of the evolution of the Roman lectionary, which eventually became the norm after Trent. Whence the caveat about whether anything was a norm in 14c Italy.)
