From the tome Daily Breviary Meditations: Meditations for Every Day on the Scriptural Lessons of the Roman Breviary, in accordance with the Encyclical "Divino Afflante," vol. 1, written by His Excellency the Most Rev. Joseph Angrisani, Bishop of Casale-Monferrato, and translated by Rev. Father Joseph A. McMullin of St. Charles Seminary at Philadelphia, PA (New York: Benziger Brothers, Inc., 1954), here are commentaries upon the lessons of occurring Scripture at Matins for the Dominical and ferial offices of Advent (at First Nocturn for the Offices of Sundays and Feasts of nine lessons which neither have proper First Nocturn lessons nor take them from the Common Offices).

Although these beautiful and edifying reflections were written for clerics, layfolk may gain exceeding great benefit therefrom, especially since the prayerful reading of these commentaries upon Holy Writ may enable the interior soul to enter unto the profundity and behold the sublimity of the sacred Mysteries that the Lord God has vouchsafed us in the selfsame Sacred Scriptures.
