What it is and what it means
We have seen where to see the Urbi et Orbi Easter Blessing 2024 live on TV and live streaming, but what is it, what does it mean? Urbi et Orbi is a Latin phrase which means “To the city (of Rome) and to the world” (literally: to the Urbe and the Orbe). Nowadays this formula is used in papal bulls, other pontifical documents, messages and blessings directed to the faithful of Rome and the entire world. In everyday language Urbi et Orbi can be used in a joking tone to denote something said or published to the four winds, letting everyone know. The Urbi et Orbi apostolic blessing is the first public blessing of a Pope immediately after his election to the papacy. It is also given by the pontiff on Christmas and Easter days. Plenary indulgence is attached to the blessing, which involves the remission of all the penalties due for sins for the faithful present in St. Peter's Square and for those who receive it through the various means of social communication, under the usual conditions (clear soul from attachment to even venial sin, confession and communion within the eight days before or after, prayer according to the intentions of the Supreme Pontiff).
