Abstract

A survey and study of the liturgical Kiss of Peace in the historical liturgies of the Scottish Episcopal Church, arguing that, with the exception of the 1970 rite, the Peace in the liturgies of the Scottish Episcopal Church has had a continuous significance both as a kind of sealing of intercessory prayer, and as a form of mutual recognition within a gathered community, linked also to reconciliation. To move the ‘Peace’ back to the Roman position would now disrupt a consistent meaning. Several suggestions and questions to be considered in the process of revision are posed at the end.
