"A very concisely written examination of the Catholic mass as a ritual, an event, and representation of the symbolism found in the Book of Revelations."
"Wow. There's so much great information in this book, and it's written in such an easy way. I mean, after reading some of the Pope Benedict XVI's books, this -- I could get used to.
And strangely enough it is consoling. It's not really relevant to the situation that I'm currently bothered by, but when he explains the book of Revelation, you get the distinct feeling that God has a plan that can't fail.
The latter part was a bit frustrating in that it seemed many concepts were introduced but only too briefly without going into the depth. Maybe it was my fault, reading too quickly or something. But it seemed like Scott Hahn was using key phrases that I would want to pause at and consider, but then he'd throw out the next semi-related sentence.
The final part of the book is where everything is kind of summarized and I liked it a lot. I wanted to quote a lot from that section, but I can't quote whole chapters! And besides you kind of need to know what goes before to "get it", get all the meaning from it.
I can say that this book enhanced my understanding of the mass; made me more attentive (at least this time! hope it lasts, because it was great!)"
