 A. This is an ancient religious usage founded on Jewish law and prevalent since the Middle Ages. In the Roman Catholic Church it is concerned solely with the thanksgiving of the mother for re- covery from child-bearing: But in the Greek church, the Old Testa- ment usage is combined wttH later custom of presenting the child before the priest on the for tieth day after birth. The prayer book of the Church of England and of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States in- cludes a form of service for this rite.
