Park, Owain: Judas


Judas (2014)

Judas delator pessimus osculo petiit Dominum ille ut agnus innocens non negavit Judae osculum. Denariorum numero Christum hostibus tradidit. Melius illi erat si natus non fuisset.

Judas, the vile informer, sought out the Lord with a kiss, who, like an innocent lamb, did not deny the kiss to Judas. For a large amount of dinarii, he betrayed Christ to the enemy. It would have been better for him, had he not been born.

Words: Tenebrae Responsory for Maundy Thursday
Music: Owain Park (b. 1993)
