“The scribes and the Pharisees have sitten on the chair of Moses. All things therefore whatsoever they shall say to you, observe and do: but according to their works do ye not; for they say, and do not.” (St. Matthew xxiii, 2-3 DRB)

“[T]he reason he first said ‘The scribes and pharisees sit upon the chair of Moses’ was so that what he then added, viz., ‘Do everything and observe everything they tell you,’ might be understood to apply to those things which pertain to that chair. However, things which are contrary to the faith or to good morals do not pertain to that chair.” (St. Thomas Aquinas, Quodlibet 3.4.2)

Almighty Father, You made the illustrious Society begun by St. Ignatius of Loyola a mighty bulwark of the one true Church of Your Son. Have mercy on its members today, lest they fall away from the Faith, materially or formally, through intellectual pride, love of novelty, or desire for worldly praise. Restore the Order to the ideal of its holy Founder, that the name ‘Jesuit’ may once again faithfully signify a humble servant and defender of truth. In the Most Holy Name of Jesus our Lord, we pray. Amen.
