CONT

Est d'abord la «bonne nouvelle» du salut, annoncée et réalisée par le Christ. C'est ensuite chacun des 4 livres inspirés où ses paroles et ses actes ont été consignés d'après saint Matthieu, saint Marc, saint Luc, et saint Jean. L'Église a pour charge fondamentale la proclamation de l'Évangile dans la Messe. Pour nous, l'Évangile désigne soit l'écrit qui raconte la vie de Jésus, soit le passage qui en est lu à chaque Messe.
