I agree, servi agni looks pretty good but we should remember that there are many words in Latin for the word servant depending on the context. What part of the Mass are you refering to? That will tell us if the word Servus, Diaconus, Famulus et cetera is used.
Actually “servus” is very appropriate. One of the titles of the Pope is “Servus Servorum Dei”, Servant of the Servants of God. Remember also, the Roman slaves did not always have as low of a social status as the slaves in America did. While they were certainly not in charge, they were often considered part of the family.I agree with the above, the noun “servus” is much more closely associated with “slave”.
I’m just in my first year of college Latin so I’m afraid that I can’t pick out a better translation, I just know that “servus” is probably NOT the correct connotation that you’re looking for
Yes, it seems less… about servatude, more about a fillial relationshipSons of the lamb?
And thank you for the clarification Fuerza
the feminine of filius is filia, but I think filii could be gender-inclusive in a case like this.
of course… how silly of me to forget one of the first nouns i ever learned lol
pueri would be more appropriate then.
