The Liturgical Year Volume 06 Passiontide and Holy Week

Description

At 1:09:46 they do not kneel between the last prayer for heretics and schismatics and the first prayer for the Jews; however, they do kneel after the first prayer for the Jews, which Dom Guéranger's version in Liturgical Year vol. 6 p. 485 (PDF p. 496) doesn't include:

Here the deacon does not invite the faithful to kneel. The Church has no hesitation in offering up a prayer for the descendants of Jesus’ executioners; but in doing so she refrains from genuflecting, because this mark of adoration was turned by the Jews into an insult against our Lord during the Passion. She prays for His scoffers; but she shrinks from repeating the act wherewith they scoffed at Him.

Is that genuflection after the first prayer for the Jews a Pius XII '55 Holy Week innovation? The genuflection before is probably a John XXIII innovation.

St. Bernard makes an interesting point in his Twelve Degrees of Humility and Pride (ch. 22 "To what extent may prayer be offered for the incorrigible, and spiritually dead?", ref:135.7):

when he falls into the fifth degree of habitual sin he is already buried. But God forbid that we should cease to pray in our hearts for such even as these—though we do not venture to do so openly, as Paul also mourned for those whom he knew to have died impenitent [2 Cor. 12:21: "I mourn many of them that sinned before and have not done penance for the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness that they have committed."]. For although they shut themselves out from our united prayers, they cannot altogether do so from their effects. They should nevertheless realize the great danger which those incur whom the Church, which prays confidently for Jews, heretics and heathen, dares not to mention in her worship. For when on Good Friday prayer is expressly offered for certain wicked persons, no mention is made of those who are excommunicated.
