This about says it all
From an ancient homily for Holy Saturday
"Something strange is happening – there is a great silence on earth today, a great silence and stillness. The whole earth keeps silence because the King is asleep. The earth trembled and is still because God has fallen asleep in the flesh and he has raised up all who have slept ever since the world began. God has died in the flesh and hell trembles with fear."
I only wish I could preach like that...

I love this reading! I look forward to Holy Saturday and the Office of Readings so that I can pray with this. It never ceases to have impact. Thank you for sharing this. To you, blessings of the risen Christ!
