Last Discourse I — John 14.1 – 15.11

Throughout Holy Week and the Paschal Triduum, the monastic liturgy reverts to a simpler, more ancient form. One element is the reading before Compline that St Benedict recommends in his Rule. We gather in choir to listen to the Last Discourse, read in English over three nights. The translation used in this recording is the Revised Standard Version. On the Wednesday of Holy Week we read this section, John 14.1 – 15.11
