Respected scripture scholars from all over the country have been asked to contribute to Liturgy.com™. For each reading there will be a brief commentary which gives some background to the reading, explains the more difficult passages and often outlines the central focus of the reading. There are commentaries for all the readings, the responsorial psalm and the gospel.

After you've found the readings for the desired celebration, check the Commentaries to get further insights into that celebration.
