In addressing these few explanatory remarks, it is appropriate to make a useful premise about a term that is today viewed with some suspicion: the concept of Tradition. It must be remembered that all pastoral care in the Church is closely linked to an anthropological and theological clarity that comes to Her from the Holy Gospel and, even more, from Tradition. Indeed, it is Tradition that grounds Scripture in its essence, legitimately interprets it and dutifully guards it. Scripture is Traditio sedimentata, living and life-giving (Dei Verbum, 8). Therefore, Tradition is not something old-fashioned, archaic and nostalgic, functional to tickle memorial vanities, but is the living essence, in the Holy Spirit, of the efficacious mandate that the Word of God, with His Incarnation and with His Passion, Death and Resurrection, gave to the Church.
