Anton Bruckner: Christus factus est

Giovanni Bellini, Calvary, 1465-70

Anton Bruckner: Christus factus est

Christus factus est pro nobis obediens

Christ for us became obedient
usque ad mortem, mortem autem crucis.

unto death, even the death of the cross.
Propter quod et Deus exaltavit illum

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him
et dedit illi nomen, quod est super omne nomen.

and given him a name which is above every name.
