Catechism Paragraph

¶ 2653

The Church "forceFully and Specially exhorts all the Christian Faithful . . . to learn 'the surpasSing Knowledge of Jesus Christ' ( ⇒ Phil 3:8) by frequent reading of the divine Scriptures.... Let them remember, however, that Prayer should accompany the reading of Sacred Scripture, so that a dialogue Takes place between God and man. For 'we speak to him when we Pray; we listen to him when we read the divine oracles."' 4
