“For if this endeavor or this
activity is of human origin, it will
destroy itself. But if it comes from
God, you will not be able to
destroy it; you may even find
yourselves fighting against God.”
Acts 5:38b-39b

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
Sometimes, this "Treasures" column can
seem to be a species of crib-notes for
Catholic Jeopardy. Indeed, you may never
know when knowledge of our particular
vocabulary may come in handy. Such is the
case with papal bulls, which conjure up all
sorts of images, but are actually not what
you might expect. A bull is a papal letter
on a matter of great consequence, such as a
decision about a crisis in the Church, the
declaration of a doctrine, the summoning of
a council, or the canonization of a saint. It
has a more solemn intention than a mere
letter or even an encyclical, a teaching letter circulated through the
whole Church. Its odd name comes from the Latin bulla, which is
the stamp used to apply a signatorial design to the hot lead, or
even molten silver or gold, that seals the decree.
The format for the bull is the name of the pope in Latin,
followed by the title "servant of the servants of God," also in Latin,
and then the text. The title of the bull is always the first two words
of the text. Some famous papal bulls are Exsurge Domine (Arise, O
Lord), written against Martin Luther's Ninety-five Theses in 1520;
Munificentissimus Deus (The Most Bountiful God), the
promulgation of the dogma of the Assumption in 1950 by Pope
Pius XII; or Humanae Salutis (Human Salvation), by which Pope
John XXIII convened the Second Vatican Council in 1962.
