TradCatKnight: How the Church Awaits Christmas
Initially let us consider the number of the days of Advent. Forty was the number originally adopted by the Church, still maintained in the Ambrosian Liturgy and in the Eastern Church. If, at a later period, the Church of Rome and those which follow her liturgy have changed the number of days, the same idea is still expressed in the four weeks that replaced the 40 days.
