Hello good morning!

.
I'm addresing this "shout out" to those people who still insist that praying the Holy Rosary is unbiblical and a vain
repetitious prayer, and to those people, still believing in this protestant's well-manifested product of complete
ignorance and literal interpretation of any Biblical passages!
.
We dare to say that the Rosary is Biblical, thus, a mini-Bible and a Christocentric (Christ-centered) prayer!
.
I hope this argument presented below will help for people's enlightenment! Deus Benedicat!
.

Sirach 50:8 (Latin Vulgate) --- "Quasi arcus refulgens inter nebulas gloriae et quasi flos ROSARUM in diebus vernis
et quasi lilia, quae sunt in transitu aquae, et quasi flos Libani in diebus aestatis."
.
Sirach 50:8 (Catholic Public Domain - English) --- "And like a rainbow shining amid clouds of glory, and like
flowering ROSES in the days of spring, and like lilies along the water’s edge, and like sweet smelling frankincense
in the days of summer."
.
Ergo: The etymology of the word "ROSARY" is from the Latin words "ROSARUM" and "ROSARIUM" which means
"FLOWER OF ROSES", "WREATH OF ROSES", "CROWN OF ROSES" and "GARLAND OF ROSES".
.
The prayers contained in the Holy Rosary is also Biblical!
