Q

1008: What is the significance of sacred ministers having come from among the Christian faithful? (Hint: VatII)

A

There are two important points here:

  1. There is a starting equality, a fundamental identity as Christian faithful first and sacred minister second
  2. This is not an order that is separate from the Christian faithful in fractured way, but in a way that is directed to the service of the Christian faithful

Q

1008: What does PG 10 explain about the two priesthoods?

A
  1. They are two ways of participating in Christ’s priesthood.
  2. They are supremely joined in the Holy Cross.
  3. What is new about Christianity is that the priesthood is not just cultic, exercised only in the sacred places, but exercised in everyday life by those who are not cultic priests. Both types are essential.

Q

1008: Talk a bit about how LG 10’s “different in essence, not only in degree” for the two priesthoods can be resolved.

A

Well, it can’t be both. For example, an acorn and an oak tree differ in degree and not essence. An acorn and a rock differ in essence and cannot differ in degree qua essence. In other words, the rock can never be more or less like a the acorn qua acorn. So, this must simply be emphatic. The two priesthoods aren’t merely different in degree, but are different in essence. In other words, don’t read what it isn’t saying.
