Sources of Information
- Work cat.: The Post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortations of John Paul II, 1998:p. 10 (in 1939, Pope Pius XII issued the first document called an "exhortation"; the same year he addressed an "apostolic exhortation" to priests and clerics serving in the military; with Paul VI the apostolic exhortation becomes a regular document of the papal Magisterium; he attributed less weight to apostolic exhortations than to encyclical letters; beginning in 1975, with the publication of Evangelii Nuntiandi, a new type of papal document came into being: the post-synodal apostolic exhortation)
- Readings in church authority, 2003:p. 109 (among the papal documents diversely sealed, the most authoritative are apostolic constitutions, apostolic letters, and apostolic exhortations; such documents are usually addressed to the universal church)

Wikipedia description:
An apostolic exhortation is a magisterial document written by the pope. Some experts regard it as third in importance among papal documents, after apostolic constitutions and encyclicals. Exhortations generally encourage a particular virtue or activity. Apostolic exhortations are frequently issued following a Synod of Bishops, in which case they are known as post-synodal apostolic exhortations. They do not define Church doctrine and are not considered legislative.
