A question and a comment on the prayer for the conversion of the jews:
- Why is that the only prayer with the sentence "Non dicitur 'Amen', which isn't done in any case in all the invocations ("Oremus et pro...")?
- To justify the omission of the genuflexions by not wanting to repeat the mockery of Christ by the jews isn't justified biblically, for it was the roman soldiers who insulted Christ with false genuflexions (Mt 27:29; Mk 15:19). Yes, also the jews mocked Christ, but you can not read anything that this was made by false genuflexions.
