“The greatest among you, let him become the servant of others.”. Matthew 23:1-12 Today we have a hard text to pray about. “Specialists discuss whether Jesus denounced the lawyers and Pharisees, in public, in too strong and even violent way… But we must accept that the fundamental part of this Gospel account has its origin […]

“The second is equivalent.” (Mt. 22:34-40) The text we have for today is central: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. And you shall love your neighbor as yourself.” It was Jesus’ answer to the doctor of the law, who maliciously

“There are many called, but few are chosen.” Mt. 22:1-14 Jesus continues to speak in parables. Let us prepare ourselves to welcome the one that today’s Gospel brings us. The parable of The Wedding Banquet expresses the relationship between the Lord and His guests. Among the former, there are some who exclude themselves for personal

God’s logic is that of gratuitous love. Mt. 20:1-16 Today’s Gospel is very revealing of what God is like. But to understand this, it is necessary to remember that, in the Bible, the vineyard is a symbol of the People of God. We cannot, therefore, interpret the text from the perspective of a trade union

You cannot serve God and money. Mt. 19:23-30 After the rich young man “went away sad,” comes Jesus’ dialogue with his disciples. They fulfill the two conditions that Jesus set for the rich young man: they have left everything and have followed Jesus. This time Pedro is largely right. That is why his reward will

Teach me your way of loving. Mt. 19:16-22 This passage of the rich young ruler is well known to us. Surely we have prayed with him many times. The young man is very sure that he had complied with the law and surely it was true; but that had not given him the fullness he

Christian life, like human life, is a constant struggle. Lk.12:49-53 Jesus spoke at times in enigmatic phrases, to his listeners and also to us. It is not easy to decipher them in all their mystery. The fire of which He speaks is not the fire that destroys, but the fire that purifies. The Baptism of

A symbol of Jesus’ humanity. Mt.19:13-15 This story of Jesus with the children makes clear to us the value that those children that the disciples do not appreciate have for Jesus. There is no doubt that Jesus valued children because they were fully persons, human beings. But beyond that, the stories with the children focus

“Rejoice, Mary, full of grace.” Lk.1:39-56 We cannot understand the Assumption of Mary in a physical way. With the image of the Assumption in body and soul, it is meant that Mary has already reached fullness, identifying herself totally with God. On this feast of the Assumption of Mary, an anecdote, in case it is

Love and forgive, because God loves you and forgives you. Mt.18,21,19,1 Pedro returns to the stage, this time with an arithmetic question. And Jesus responds by jumping from a generous number to an indefinite one. Before God there are no debts great or small… It is as if He were saying to him: “As long
