聖高比 (司鐸、殉道) (紀念)

恭讀聖瑪竇福音　19:3-12

那時候，有些法利塞人來到耶穌跟前，試探他說：「許不許人為了任何緣故，休自己的妻子呢？」他回答說：「你們沒有念過，那創造者自起初就造了他們——男和女；且說：『為此，人要離開父親和母親，依附自己的妻子，兩人成為一體』的話嗎？這樣，他們不是兩個，而是一體了。為此，凡天主所結合的，人不可拆散。」他們對他說：「那麼，為什麼梅瑟還吩咐人下休書休妻呢？」耶穌對他們說：「梅瑟為了你們的心硬，才准許你們休妻；但起初並不是這樣。如今我對你們說﹕無論誰休妻﹐除非因為姘居﹐而另娶一個﹐他就是犯奸淫；凡娶被休的，也是犯奸淫。」門徒對他說﹕「人同妻子的關係﹐如果是這樣﹐倒不如不娶的好。」耶穌對他們說：「這話不是人人所能領悟的，只有那些得了恩賜的人，才能領悟。因為有些閹人，從母胎生來就是這樣；有些閹人，是被人閹的；有些閹人，卻是為了天國，而自閹的。能領悟的，就領悟吧！」

—上主的話。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 19:3-12

3 And Pharisees came up to him and tested him by asking, “Is it lawful to divorce one’s wife for any cause?” 4 He answered, “Have you not read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female, 5 and said, `For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? 6 So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder.” 7 They said to him, “Why then did Moses command one to give a certificate of divorce, and to put her away?” 8 He said to them, “For your hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. 9 And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for unchastity, and marries another, commits adultery.” 10 The disciples said to him, “If such is the case of a man with his wife, it is not expedient to marry.” 11 But he said to them, “Not all men can receive this saying, but only those to whom it is given. 12 For there are eunuchs who have been so from birth, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to receive this, let him receive it.”

神父講道 – 常年期第十九週 (週四) (2015年8月13日)

by pleung | Aug 12, 2015 | Gospel Reflection, Homily, Prayers, Reflection, Sharing

恭讀聖瑪竇福音　18:21-19:1

那時，伯多祿前來對耶穌說：「主啊！若我的弟兄得罪了我，我該寬恕他多少次？直至七次嗎？」耶穌對他說：「我不對你說：直到七次，而是到七十個七次。為此天國好比一個君王，要同他的僕人算賬。他開始算賬的時候，給他送來了一個欠他一萬「塔冷通」的，因為他沒有可還的，主人就下令，要他把自己和妻子兒女，以及他所有的一切，都變賣來還債。那僕人就俯伏在地叩拜他說：主啊！容忍我吧！一切我都要還給你。那僕人的主人就動心把他釋放了，並且也免了他的債。但那僕人正出去時，遇見了一個欠他一百「德納」的同伴，他就抓住他，扼住他的喉嚨說：還你欠的債！他的同伴就俯伏在地哀求他說：容忍我吧！我必還給你。可是他不願意，且把他關在監裏，直到他還清了欠債。他的同伴見到所發生的事，非常悲憤，遂去把所發生的一切告訴了主人。於是主人把那僕人叫來，對他說：惡僕！因為你哀求了我，我就免了你那一切的債；難道你不該憐憫你的同伴，如同我憐憫了你一樣嗎？他的主人大怒，遂把他交給刑役，直到他還清所欠的一切。如果你們不各自從心裏寬恕自己的弟兄，我的天父也要這樣對待你們。」
耶穌講完這些話以後，就離開加里肋亞，來到約旦對岸的猶太境內。

—上主的話。

(19th Week in Ordinary Time – Thursday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 18:21-19:1

21 Then Peter came up and said to him, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?” 22 Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you seven times, but seventy times seven.23 “Therefore the kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his servants. 24 When he began the reckoning, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents; 25 and as he could not pay, his lord ordered him to be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and payment to be made. 26 So the servant fell on his knees, imploring him, `Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.’ 27 And out of pity for him the lord of that servant released him and forgave him the debt.
28 But that same servant, as he went out, came upon one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and seizing him by the throat he said, `Pay what you owe.’ 29 So his fellow servant fell down and besought him, `Have patience with me, and I will pay you.’ 30 He refused and went and put him in prison till he should pay the debt. 31 When his fellow servants saw what had taken place, they were greatly distressed, and they went and reported to their lord all that had taken place. 32 Then his lord summoned him and said to him, `You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you besought me; 33 and should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you?’ 34 And in anger his lord delivered him to the jailers, till he should pay all his debt. 35 So also my heavenly Father will do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.” 19:1 Now when Jesus had finished these sayings, he went away from Galilee and entered the region of Judea beyond the Jordan.

神父講道 – 常年期第十九週 (週三) (2015年8月12日)

by pleung | Aug 11, 2015 | Gospel Reflection, Homily, Prayers, Reflection, Sharing

恭讀聖瑪竇福音　18:15-20

那時，耶穌對門徒說：「如果你的弟兄得罪了你，去，要在你和他獨處的時候，規勸他，如果他聽從了你，你便賺得了你的兄弟；但他如果不聽，你就另帶上一個或兩個人，為叫任何事情，憑兩個或三個見證人的口供，得以成立。若是他仍不聽從他們，你要告訴教會；如果他連教會也不聽從，你就將他看作外教人或稅吏。我實在告訴你們：凡你們在地上所束縛的，在天上也要被束縛；凡你們在地上所釋放的，在天上也要被釋放。我實在告訴你們：若你們中有兩個人，在地上同心合意，無論為什麼事祈禱，我在天之父，必要給他們成就，因為那裏有兩個或三個人，因我的名字聚在一起，我就在他們中間。

—上主的話。

(19th Week in Ordinary Time – Wednesday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 18:15-20

15 “If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. 16 But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every word may be confirmed by the evidence of two or three witnesses. 17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. 18 Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. 19 Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”

神父講道 – 聖嘉勒 (貞女) (紀念) (週二) (2015年8月11日)

聖嘉勒 (貞女) (紀念)

恭讀聖瑪竇福音　18:1-5,10,12-14

就在那時刻，門徒來到耶穌跟前說：「在天國裏究竟誰是最大的？」耶穌就叫一個小孩來，使他站在他們中間，說：「我實在告訴你們：你們若不悔改而變成如同小孩一樣，你們決不能進天國。所以，誰若自謙自卑如同這一個小孩，這人就是天國中最大的。無論誰因我的名字，收留一個這樣的小孩，就是收留我。你們小心！不要輕視這些小子中的一個，因為我告訴你們：他們的天使在天上，常見我在天之父的面。」
耶穌又說：「你們以為如何？如果一個人有一百隻羊，其中一隻迷失了路，他豈不把那九十九隻羊留在山上，而去尋找那隻迷失了路的嗎？如果他幸運找著了，我實在告訴你們：他為這一隻，比為那九十九隻沒有迷路的，更覺歡喜；同樣，使這些小子中的一個喪亡，決不是你們在天之父的意願。」

—上主的話。

(19th Week in Ordinary Time – Tuesday)

(Memorial of Saint Claire, Virgin)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 18:1-5, 10, 12-14

1 At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” 2 And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them, 3 and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Whoever humbles himself like this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 “Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me; 10 “See that you do not despise one of these little ones; for I tell you that in heaven their angels always behold the face of my Father who is in heaven.12 What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains and go in search of the one that went astray? 13 And if he finds it, truly, I say to you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that never went astray. 14 So it is not the will of my Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.

聖老楞佐 (執事、殉道) (慶日)

恭讀聖若望福音　12:24-26

那時候，耶穌對他的門徒說：「我實實在在告訴你們：一粒麥子如果不落在地裏死了，仍只是一粒；如果死了，才結出許多子粒來。愛惜自己性命的，必要喪失性命；在現世憎恨自己性命的，必要保存性命入於永生。誰若事奉我，就當跟隨我；如此，我在那裏，我的僕人也要在那裏；誰若事奉我，我父必要尊重他。」

—上主的話。

(19th Week in Ordinary Time – Monday)

(Feast of Saint Lawrence, deacon and martyr)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 12:24-26

24 Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. 25 He who loves his life loses it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 26 If any one serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there shall my servant be also; if any one serves me, the Father will honor him.
