ℹ️ This corpus has no morphological tagging. Glosses are matched by word form against a dictionary — a match does not prove it is the same word (an inflected form can coincide with another word’s lemma). Verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.
ℹ️ The Chinese and English alongside are this site's own translation, made directly from the original text on this page (not the CUV or the WEB, which follow the Masoretic Text and a different textual tradition).

'Today truth has sprung up from the earth: Christ has been born of the flesh. Rejoice solemnly, and admonished by today, think also upon the everlasting day; with most firm hope desire the eternal gifts,' etc. It ends: 'He who for your sake took the form of a servant—in him let us receive liberty; he who for our sake sprang up from the earth—in him let us possess heaven,' etc. The Maurist Fathers gave it a place among the genuine sermons of Saint Augustine, as is clear from the Antwerp edition, column 623, and it is the ninth sermon on the Nativity of the Lord.
