「祥」話短說 (2011年5月6日)

by | May 7, 2011 | Pastor Corner

「聖父(Holy Father為對教宗的稱號)，我是從中國來的！」
這突如其來的呼喚，健步如飛的教宗若望保祿二世便放慢了腳步，向我回望，並回頭走向我那裡，當他用右手放在我的頭上時，我用左手緊握著他的左手。他的目光是全神望著我的，可以說我們是四目相投。
我知道教宗對中國教會情有獨鍾。我們的簡短的對話當然是圍繞著這主題。今天，已回歸父家的他，當然不例外地為中國教會祈禱。
以上的情景，是發生在一九八零年初的一個星期三，地點是保祿六世大禮堂。
另一次近距離見面，是在2002年參與他在多倫多舉行的世界青年節共祭彌撒。說是近距離，也是相當遠的。不過，在主內的共融，是無分遠近的。當時，他的行動雖已不甚靈活，說話也不大清晰，但在場參禮的人，常常報以熱烈的掌聲。
最感人的一個片段，是他在機場的時候，放棄使用升降機，而是親身步行下機。他給予年青人一個清晰的訊息：凡事身體力行。
他的徽號：『我全屬於妳』(TOTUS TUUS)也是他一生寫照。他無懼權勢、無懼凌辱。他默默承受批判。願他的堅忍作風，能烙印在我們的心田。

恭讀聖路加福音24:13-35
就在一周的第一天，耶穌的門徒中，有兩個人，往一個村莊去，村名厄瑪烏，離耶路撒冷約六十『斯塔狄』。他們彼此談論所發生的一切事。正談話討論的時候，耶穌親自走近他們，與他們同行。他們的眼睛卻被蒙蔽住了，以致認不出祂來。耶穌對他們說：「你們走路，彼此談論的是些什麼事？」他們就站住，面帶愁容。一個名叫克羅帕的，回答耶穌說：「在耶路撒冷作客的，獨有祢不知道這幾天在那裡所發生的事嗎？」耶穌問他們說：「什麼事？」他們回答說：「就是有關納匝肋人耶穌的事。祂本是一位先知，在天主及眾百姓前，行事說話都有權力。我們的司祭長及首領，竟解送了祂，判了祂死罪，釘祂在十字架上。我們原指望祂就是那要拯救以色列的。可是……此外還有：這些事發生到今天，已是第三天了。我們中有幾個婦女，驚嚇了我們；她們清早到了墳墓那裡，沒有看見祂的遺體，回來說她們見了天使顯現，天使說祂復活了。我們中也有幾個，到過墳墓那裡，所遇見的事，如同婦女們所說的一樣，但是，沒有看見祂。」耶穌於是對他們說：「唉！無知的人哪！為信先知們所說的一切話，你們的心竟是這般遲鈍！默西亞不是必須受這些苦難，纔進入祂的光榮嗎？」祂於是從梅瑟及眾先知開始，把全部經書論及祂的話，都給他們解釋了。當他們走近他們要去的村莊時，耶穌裝作還要前行。他們強留祂說：「請同我們一起住下罷！因為快到晚上，天已垂暮了。」耶穌就進去，同他們住下。當耶穌與他們坐下吃飯的時候，就拿起餅來，祝福了，擘開，遞給他們。他們的眼睛開了，這纔認出耶穌來；但耶穌卻由他們眼前隱沒了。他們就彼此說：「當祂在路上與我們談話，給我們講解聖經的時候，我們的心不是火熱的嗎？」他們遂即動身，返回耶路撒冷，遇見那十一門徒，及同他們一起的人，正聚在一起，彼此談論說：「主真復活了，並顯現給西滿！」兩人就把在路上的事，及在分餅時，他們怎樣認出了耶穌，述說了一遍。

(3rd Sunday of Easter)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 24:13-35

13 That very day two of them were going to a village named Emma’us, about seven miles from Jerusalem, 14 and talking with each other about all these things that had happened. 15 While they were talking and discussing together, Jesus himself drew near and went with them. 16 But their eyes were kept from recognizing him. 17 And he said to them, “What is this conversation which you are holding with each other as you walk?” And they stood still, looking sad. 18 Then one of them, named Cle’opas, answered him, “Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?” 19 And he said to them, “What things?” And they said to him, “Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people, 20 and how our chief priests and rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him. 21 But we had hoped that he was the one to redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since this happened. 22 Moreover, some women of our company amazed us. They were at the tomb early in the morning 23 and did not find his body; and they came back saying that they had even seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive. 24 Some of those who were with us went to the tomb, and found it just as the women had said; but him they did not see.” 25 And he said to them, “O foolish men, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! 26 Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things and enter into his glory?” 27 And beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted to them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
28 So they drew near to the village to which they were going. He appeared to be going further, 29 but they constrained him, saying, “Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is now far spent.” So he went in to stay with them. 30 When he was at table with them, he took the bread and blessed, and broke it, and gave it to them. 31 And their eyes were opened and they recognized him; and he vanished out of their sight. 32 They said to each other, “Did not our hearts burn within us while he talked to us on the road, while he opened to us the scriptures?” 33 And they rose that same hour and returned to Jerusalem; and they found the eleven gathered together and those who were with them, 34 who said, “The Lord has risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!” 35 Then they told what had happened on the road, and how he was known to them in the breaking of the bread.

恭讀聖若望福音　19:25-27
那時候，在耶穌的十字架旁，站著他的母親和他母親的姊妹，還有克羅帕的妻子瑪利亞和瑪利亞瑪達肋納。耶穌看見母親，又看見他所愛的門徒站在旁邊，就對母親說：「女人，看，你的兒子！」然後；又對那門徒說：「看，你的母親！」就從那時起；那門徒把她接到自己家裏。

(Saturday of the Second Week of Easter – Memorial of Our Lady of China)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 19:25-27

25 But standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Mag’dalene. 26 When Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing near, he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son!” 27 Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.

恭讀聖若望福音 6:1-15
那時候，耶穌往加里肋亞海，即提庇黎雅海的對岸去了。大批群眾，因為看見到他在患病者身上所行的神蹟，都跟隨著他。耶穌上了山，和他的門徒一起坐在那裏。那時，猶太人的慶節，即逾越節，已臨近了。耶穌舉目看見大批群眾來到他前，就對斐理伯說：「你們從那裏買餅給這些人吃呢？」他說這話，是為試探斐理伯；他自己原知道要作什麼。斐理伯回答說：「就是二兩塊『德納』的餅，也不夠每人分得一小塊。」有一個門徒，即西滿伯多祿的的哥哥安德肋說：「這裏有一個兒童，他有五個大餅和兩條魚；但是為這麼多的人這算得什麼？」耶穌說：「你們叫眾人坐下吧！」在那地方有很多青草，於是人們便坐下，男人約有五千。耶穌就拿起餅，祝謝後，分給坐下的人；對於魚也照樣作了；讓眾人任意吃。他們吃飽以後，耶穌向門徒說：「把剩下的碎塊收集起來，免得糟蹋了。」他們就把人吃後所剩下的五個大麥餅的碎塊，收集起來，裝滿了十二籃。眾人見了耶穌所行的神蹟，就說：「這人確是那要來到世界上的先知。」耶穌看出他們要來強迫他，立他為王，就獨自又退避到山裏去了。

(Friday of the Second Week of Easter)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 6:1-15

1 After this Jesus went to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, which is the Sea of Tiber’i-as. 2 And a multitude followed him, because they saw the signs which he did on those who were diseased. 3 Jesus went up on the mountain, and there sat down with his disciples. 4 Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand. 5 Lifting up his eyes, then, and seeing that a multitude was coming to him, Jesus said to Philip, “How are we to buy bread, so that these people may eat?” 6 This he said to test him, for he himself knew what he would do. 7 Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each of them to get a little.” 8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him, 9 “There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what are they among so many?” 10 Jesus said, “Make the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in the place; so the men sat down, in number about five thousand. 11 Jesus then took the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were seated; so also the fish, as much as they wanted. 12 And when they had eaten their fill, he told his disciples, “Gather up the fragments left over, that nothing may be lost.” 13 So they gathered them up and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves, left by those who had eaten. 14 When the people saw the sign which he had done, they said, “This is indeed the prophet who is to come into the world!” 15 Perceiving then that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, Jesus withdrew again to the mountain by himself.

by | May 4, 2011 | Gospel Reflection, Homily, Prayers, Reflection, Sharing

恭讀聖若望福音 3:31-36
那由上而來的，超越一切。那出於下地的，是屬於下地，且講論下地的事；那自上天而來的，超越萬有之上，他對所見所聞的，予以作證，卻沒有人接受他的見證。那接受他見證的人，就是證實天主是真實的。天主所派遣的，講論天主的話，因為天主把聖神無限量地賞賜了他。父愛子，並把一切交在他手中。那信從子的，便有永生；那不信從子的，不但不會見到生命，反有天主的義怒常在他身上。」
—基督的福音。

(Thursday of the Second Week of Easter)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 3:31-36

31 He who comes from above is above all; he who is of the earth belongs to the earth, and of the earth he speaks; he who comes from heaven is above all. 32 He bears witness to what he has seen and heard, yet no one receives his testimony; 33 he who receives his testimony sets his seal to this, that God is true. 34 For he whom God has sent utters the words of God, for it is not by measure that he gives the Spirit; 35 the Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand. 36 He who believes in the Son has eternal life; he who does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God rests upon him.
