"An indulgence is granted to all the Faithful ... A
Plenary Indulgence ... is granted once a month for the daily reading."
— Pope Leo XIII, 13 December AD 1898

"... the Faithful should be excited to the reading of
the Holy Scriptures: For these are the most abundant sources which ought to be
left open to everyone, to draw from them purity of morals and doctrine, to
eradicate the errors which are so widely disseminated in these corrupt
times: This you have seasonably effected, as you declare, by publishing
the Sacred Writings in the language of your country, suited to every one's
capacity...."
— Pope Pius VI, 1778
