Any way you cut it, just going to Mass will NOT give a functional knowledge of Scripture.

I don't think it is meant to, one needs to do the homework also.

Absolutely. It WILL, however, help us with the right disposition, with infused graces, etc. etc. so that we wilklbe more moved to study and our ears will be all the more open to hear the Word.

And, on a more mundane level, with Mass and office, one finds that especially the psalms but also paragraphs from Scripture have burrowed into our hearts ....

Exactly. I get told here all the time that they read the OT and Revelation plus all the rest. NOT.
