The act of laying on of hands was accompanied by prayer ( Ac 6:6 8:15 13:3), and the blessing sought was imparted by God Himself. Reiki, Toque Terapêutico (TT) e Healing Touch (HT) são Técnicas de Imposição de Mãos (TIM) que trabalham na harmonização do fluxo natural de energia vital do organismo. Here again the fundamental idea is communication. Application of tecnhique of imposition of hands in cancer, pain and stress-anxiety : sistematic review of literature. An ecclesiastical action, by which a bishop lays his hands on the head of a person in ordination, confirmation, or in uttering a blessing. The presbyters could hardly convey what they had not themselves received ( 1Ti 1:14). This is noticed as taking place in the appointment of the Seven ( Ac 6:6), in the sending out of Barnabas and Saul ( Ac 13:3), at the ordination of Timothy ( 1Ti 4:14 2Ti 1:6), but though not directly mentioned, it seems likely that it accompanied all acts of ordination of presbyters and deacons (compare 1Ti 5:22 Heb 6:2). Specially the imposition of hands was used in the setting apart of persons to a particular office or work in the church. In the New Testament Jesus laid hands on the little children ( Mt 19:13, 15 parallel Mr 10:16) and on the sick ( Mt 9:18 Mr 6:5, etc.), and the apostles laid hands on those whom they baptized that they might receive the Holy Spirit ( Ac 8:17, 19 19:6), and in healing ( Ac 12:17). The primary idea seems to be that of conveyance or transference (compare Le 16:21), but, conjoined with this, in certain instances, are the ideas of identification and of devotion to God.
The idea in these cases varies with the purpose of the act. The tribe of Levi was set apart by solemn imposition of hands ( Nu 8:10) Moses appointed Joshua to be his successor by a similar act ( Nu 27:18, 23 De 34:9). I could be wrong in those distinctions.Im-po-zish'-un (epithesis cheiron, Ac 8:18 1Ti 4:14 2Ti 1:6 Heb 6:2): The act or ceremony of the imposition of hands appears in the Old Testament in various connections: in the act of blessing ( Ge 48:14 ) in the ritual of sacrifice (hands of the offerer laid on head of victim, Ex 29:10, 15, 19 Le 1:4 3:2, 8, 13 4:4, 24, 29 8:14 16:21) in witness-bearing in capital offenses ( Le 24:14). I believe that the exorcism in the scrutiny is a minor exorcism as well (contrasted against a major exorcism in the case of possession or obsession, which should not be attempted even by your average priest as there are specially appointed diocesan exorcists trained for that).
However, if the scrutiny was done outside of Mass (which is acceptable) and the priest could not be present, then I see no reason why the deputized catechist would not be able to act as the celebrant in the scrutiny as well.
I can see no reason for a lay person to do the exorcisms if a priest is present, as was the case in Jeff’s question. The petitioners asked the SC to order the Commission on Audit (COA) to conduct an audit of all the funds collected from consumers since the imposition of the Bill Deposit requirement, the actual interest earned by Meralco from the same, the amount so far refunded to the consumers and the balance of the amount that has not been refunded. I know in many parishes catechists will perform these as well as the blessings and anointings even if there is a regular parish priest because he is unable to attend the weekly sessions (when the minor exorcisms generally take place). My guess (and it is only a guess since it is no where stated in the rites or accompanying documents) is that this provision for a “qualified catechist” to act as celebrant for the minor exorcisms was intended primarily for areas or parishes where it was impossible or difficult for a priest to be present (mission areas, rural churches that get a priest only once a month, etc.). I had to leave in the middle of my post so, here’s the rest: Laying on of hands is a biblical action however, there is no biblical mandate requiring the physical laying on of hands for a particular spiritual.
