恭讀聖若望福音　7:40-53

那時候，群眾中有些人聽了耶穌的話，便說：「這人真是那位先知。」另有些人說：「這人是默西亞。」但也有人說：「難道默西亞能來自加里肋亞嗎？經上不是說：默西亞要出自達味的後裔，來自達味出生的村莊白冷嗎？」因此，為了耶穌的緣故，在群眾中起了紛爭。他們中有些人願捉拿他，但誰也沒有向他下手。差役回到司祭長和法利塞人那裏；司祭長和法利塞人問他們說：「為什麼你們沒有把他帶來？」差役回答說：「從來沒有一個人如此講話，像這人講話一樣。」法利塞人遂向他們說：「難道你們也受了煽惑嗎？首長中或法利塞人中，難道有人信仰了他嗎？但是，這些不明白法律的群眾，是可詛咒的！」他們中有一個，即先前曾來到耶穌那裏的尼苛德摩，遂向他們說：「如果不先聽取人的口供，和查明他所作的事，難道我們的法律就許定他的罪麼？」他們回答他說：「難道你也是出自加里肋亞麼？你去查考，你就能知道：從加里肋亞不會出先知的。」然後，他們就各自回家去了。

—上主的話。

(4th Week of Lent – Saturday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 7:40-53

Some in the crowd who heard these words of Jesus said, “This is truly the Prophet.” Others said, “This is the Christ.” But others said, “The Christ will not come from Galilee, will he? Does not Scripture say that the Christ will be of David’s family and come from Bethlehem, the village where David lived?” So a division occurred in the crowd because of him. Some of them even wanted to arrest him, but no one laid hands on him.
So the guards went to the chief priests and Pharisees, who asked them, “Why did you not bring him?” The guards answered, “Never before has anyone spoken like this man.” So the Pharisees answered them, “Have you also been deceived? Have any of the authorities or the Pharisees believed in him? But this crowd, which does not know the law, is accursed.” Nicodemus, one of their members who had come to him earlier, said to them, “Does our law condemn a man before it first hears him and finds out what he is doing?” They answered and said to him, “You are not from Galilee also, are you? Look and see that no prophet arises from Galilee.”
Then each went to his own house.

—The Gospel of the Lord.

殯葬彌撒 (2020年3月27日)

by pleung | Mar 27, 2020 | Gospel Reflection, Homily, Prayers, Reflection, Sharing

恭讀聖若望福音　11:17-27

耶穌一到了伯達尼，得知拉匝祿在墳墓裡，已經四天了。伯達尼靠近耶路撒冷，相距約十五「斯塔狄」，因而有許多猶太人，來到瑪爾大和瑪利亞那裡，為她們兄弟的死，安慰她們。
瑪爾大一聽說耶穌來了，便去迎接他；瑪利亞仍坐在家裡。瑪爾大對耶穌說：「主！如果你在這裡，我的兄弟決不會死！就是現在，我也知道：你無論向天主求什麼，天主必要賜給你。」
耶穌對瑪爾大說：「你的兄弟必定要復活。」
瑪爾大說：「我知道在末日復活時，他必要復活。」
耶穌對瑪爾大說：「我就是復活，就是生命；信從我的，即使死了，仍要活著；凡活著而信從我的人，必永遠不死。你信麼？」
瑪爾大回答說：「是的，主，我信你是默西亞，天主子，要來到世界上的那一位。」
—上主的話。

Funeral Mass (March 27, 2020)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 11:17-27

When Jesus arrived, he found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days. Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, only about two miles away. And many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them about their brother. When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him; but Mary sat at home. Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died. [But] even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you.” Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise.” Martha said to him, “I know he will rise, in the resurrection on the last day.” Jesus told her, “I am the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?” She said to him, “Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, the one who is coming into the world.”

—The Gospel of the Lord.
