神父講道 – 常年期第九週 (星期四) (2023年6月8日)

恭讀聖馬爾谷福音 12:28-34

那時候,有一位經師聽見了耶穌與撒杜塞人辯論,覺得耶穌對他們回答得好,便上前來,問他說:「一切誡命中,那一條是第一條呢?」耶穌回答說:「第一條是:『以色列!你要聽!上主我們的天主是唯一的天主。你應當全心、全靈、全意、全力愛上主,你的天主。』第二條是:『你應當愛近人如你自己。』再沒有別的誡命比這兩條更大的了。」那經師對耶穌說:「不錯!師傅說的實在對:他是唯一的,除他以外,再沒有別的:應以全心、全意、全力愛他,並愛近人如自己,遠超過一切全燔祭和犧牲。」耶穌見他回答的明智,便對他說:「你離天主的國不遠了。」從此,沒有人敢再問他。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark 12:28-34

One of the scribes came to Jesus and asked him, “Which is the first of all the commandments?” Jesus replied, “The first is this: Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is Lord alone! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. The second is this: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.” The scribe said to him, “Well said, teacher. You are right in saying, He is One and there is no other than he. And to love him with all your heart, with all your understanding, with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is worth more than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.” And when Jesus saw that he answered with understanding, he said to him, “You are not far from the Kingdom of God.” And no one dared to ask him any more questions.

神父講道 – 常年期第九週 (星期三) (2023年6月7日)

恭讀聖馬爾谷福音 12:18-27

那時候,否認復活的撒杜塞人來到耶穌跟前,問他說:「師傅!梅瑟曾給我們寫說:如果一個人的哥哥死了,撇下妻子而沒留下孩子,他的弟弟就應娶他的妻子,給他哥哥立嗣。曾有兄弟七人,第一個娶了妻,沒有留下子嗣就死了。第二個娶了她,也沒有留下子嗣就死了。第三個也是這樣。那七個都沒有留下子嗣;末了,那婦人也死了。在復活時,他們復活以後,她將是他們中那一個人的妻子?因為七個人都娶過她為妻。耶穌對他們說:「你們豈不是因為沒有明瞭經書,也沒有明瞭天主的能力,而錯誤了嗎?因為人從死者中復活後,也不娶,也不嫁,就像天上的天使一樣。關於死人復活的事,在梅瑟書上荊棘篇中,你們沒有讀過天主怎樣對他說的嗎?他說:『我是亞巴郎的天主,依撒格的天主,和雅各伯的天主。』他不是死人的,而是活人的天主。所以你們大錯了!」

(9th Week in Ordinary Time – Wednesday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark 12:18-27

Some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and put this question to him, saying, “Teacher, Moses wrote for us, ‘If someone’s brother dies, leaving a wife but no child, his brother must take the wife and raise up descendants for his brother.’ Now there were seven brothers. The first married a woman and died, leaving no descendants. So the second brother married her and died, leaving no descendants, and the third likewise. And the seven left no descendants. Last of all the woman also died. At the resurrection when they arise whose wife will she be? For all seven had been married to her.” Jesus said to them, “Are you not misled because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God? When they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but they are like the angels in heaven. As for the dead being raised, have you not read in the Book of Moses, in the passage about the bush, how God told him, I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? He is not God of the dead but of the living. You are greatly misled.”

聖玻尼法 (主教、殉道) (紀念)

恭讀聖馬爾谷福音 12:1-12

那時候,耶穌開始用比喻對司祭長、經師和長老們說:「有一個人培植了一個葡萄園,周圍圍上了籬笆,掘了一個榨酒池,築了一座守望台,把它租給園戶,就離開了本國。到了時節,他便打發一個僕人到園戶那裏,向園戶收取園中的果實;園戶卻抓住他,打了他,放他空手回去。主人又打發別的一個僕人到他們那裏去;他們打傷了他的頭,並且凌辱了他。主人又打發另一個,他們把他殺了;後又打發好些僕人去:有的他們打了,有的他們殺了。主人還有一個,即他的愛子;最後就打發他到他們那裏去,說:他們必會敬重我的兒子。那些園戶卻彼此說:這是繼承人,來!我們殺掉他,將來產業就歸我們了。於是,抓住他殺了,把他拋在葡萄園外。那麼,葡萄園的主人要怎樣處置呢?他必來除滅這些園戶,將葡萄園另租給別人。你們沒有讀過這段經文嗎?『匠人棄而不用的石頭,反而成了屋角的基石:那是上主的所作所為,在我們眼中神妙莫測。』」
他們明白這比喻是指他們說的,就想逮捕耶穌;但害怕群眾,於是離開他走了。

—上主的話。

(Memorial of Saint Boniface, Bishop and Martyr)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark 12:1-12

Jesus began to speak to the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders in parables. “A man planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a wine press, and built a tower. Then he leased it to tenant farmers and left on a journey. At the proper time he sent a servant to the tenants to obtain from them some of the produce of the vineyard. But they seized him, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed. Again he sent them another servant. And that one they beat over the head and treated shamefully. He sent yet another whom they killed. So, too, many others; some they beat, others they killed. He had one other to send, a beloved son. He sent him to them last of all, thinking, ‘They will respect my son.’ But those tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ So they seized him and killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard. What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come, put the tenants to death, and give the vineyard to others. Have you not read this Scripture passage:
The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; by the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes?”
They were seeking to arrest him, but they feared the crowd, for they realized that he had addressed the parable to them. So they left him and went away.

神父講道 – 天主聖三節 (節日) (2023年6月4日)

恭讀聖若望福音 3:16-18

天主竟這樣愛了世界,甚至賜下了自己的獨生子,使凡信他的人不至喪亡,反而獲得永生,因為天主沒有派遣子到世界上來審判世界,而是為叫世界,藉著他而獲救。那信從他的,不受審判;那不信的,已受了審判,因為他沒有信從天主獨生子的名字。

—上主的話。

(The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity – Sunday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 3:16-18

God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him will not be condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

恭讀聖馬爾谷福音 11:27-33

那時候,耶穌和他的門徒來到耶路撒冷。當耶穌在殿裏徘徊時,司祭長、經師和長老來到他跟前,對他說:「你憑什麼權柄作這些事?或者,是誰給了你權柄作這些事?」耶穌對他們說:「我也要問你們一句話,你們回答我,我就告訴你們:我憑什麼權柄作這些事。若翰的洗禮是從天上來的,還是從人來的?答覆我吧!」他們心中思量說:「若我們說:是從天上來的,他就要說:那麼你們為什麼不信他?但我們怎敢說:是從人來的呢?」——他們是害怕民眾,因為眾人都以若翰實在是一位先知。他們便回答耶穌說:「我們不知道。」耶穌也對他們說:「我也不告訴你們:我憑什麼權柄作這些事。」

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark 11:27-33

Jesus and his disciples returned once more to Jerusalem. As he was walking in the temple area, the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders approached him and said to him, “By what authority are you doing these things? Or who gave you this authority to do them?” Jesus said to them, “I shall ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things. Was John’s baptism of heavenly or of human origin? Answer me.” They discussed this among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘Of heavenly origin,’ he will say, ‘Then why did you not believe him?’ But shall we say, ‘Of human origin’?”– they feared the crowd, for they all thought John really was a prophet. So they said to Jesus in reply, “We do not know.” Then Jesus said to them, “Neither shall I tell you by what authority I do these things.”

神父講道 – 常年期第八週 (星期五) (2023年6月2日)

恭讀聖馬爾谷福音 11:11-25

那時候,耶穌進了耶路撒冷,到聖殿裏,周圍察看了一切,時辰已晚,遂同十二門徒出來,往伯達尼去了。
第二天,他們從伯達尼出來,耶穌餓了。他從遠處望見了一棵茂盛的無花果樹,就上前去,看是否在樹上可以找到什麼;及至走到那裏,除了葉子外,什麼也沒有找著,因為還不是無花果的時節。耶穌就開口對它說:「永遠再沒有人吃你的果子了!」他的門徒也都聽見了。
他們來到耶路撒冷。耶穌一進殿院,就開始把在殿院裏的買賣人趕出去,把錢莊的桌子和賣鴿子的凳子推翻,也不許人帶著器皿由殿院裏經過,教訓他們說:「經上不是記載:『我的殿宇將稱為萬民的祈禱之所』麼?你們竟把它作成了賊窩!」
司祭長和經師聽了,就設法要怎樣除掉他,卻又害怕他,因為全群眾對他的教訓都驚奇不已。到了晚上,他們就出了城。
早晨,他們從那裏經過時,看見那棵無花果樹連根都枯乾了。伯多祿想起來,就對耶穌說:「師傅!看,你所咒罵的無花果樹已枯乾了。」耶穌回答他們說:「你們對天主當有信德!我實在告訴你們:無論誰對這座山說:起來,投到海裏去!他心裏若不懷疑,反相信他說的必成就,就必給他成就。因此,我告訴你們:你們祈禱,不論求什麼,只要你們相信必得,必給你們成就。當你們立著祈禱時,若你們有什麼怨人的事,就寬恕吧!好叫你們在天之父,也寬恕你們的過犯。」

(8th Week in Ordinary Time – Friday)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark 11:11-25

Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple area. He looked around at everything and, since it was already late, went out to Bethany with the Twelve.
The next day as they were leaving Bethany he was hungry. Seeing from a distance a fig tree in leaf, he went over to see if he could find anything on it. When he reached it he found nothing but leaves; it was not the time for figs. And he said to it in reply, “May no one ever eat of your fruit again!” And his disciples heard it.
They came to Jerusalem, and on entering the temple area he began to drive out those selling and buying there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling doves. He did not permit anyone to carry anything through the temple area. Then he taught them saying, “Is it not written:
My house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples? But you have made it a den of thieves.”
The chief priests and the scribes came to hear of it and were seeking a way to put him to death, yet they feared him because the whole crowd was astonished at his teaching. When evening came, they went out of the city.
Early in the morning, as they were walking along, they saw the fig tree withered to its roots. Peter remembered and said to him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered.” Jesus said to them in reply, “Have faith in God. Amen, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it shall be done for him. Therefore I tell you, all that you ask for in prayer, believe that you will receive it and it shall be yours. When you stand to pray, forgive anyone against whom you have a grievance, so that your heavenly Father may in turn forgive you your transgressions.”

神父講道 – 聖猶思定 (殉道) (紀念) (星期四) (2023年6月1日)

恭讀聖瑪竇福音 5:13-19

那時候,耶穌對門徒說:「你們是地上的鹽,鹽若失了味,可用什麼使它再鹹呢?它再毫無用途,只好拋在外邊,任人踐踏罷了。你們是世界的光;建在山上的城,是不能隱藏的。人點燈,並不是放在斗底下,而是放在燈台上,照耀屋中所有的人。照樣,你們的光也當在人前照耀,好使他們看見你們的善行,光榮你們在天之父。「你們不要以為我來是廢除法律或先知;我來不是為廢除,而是為成全。我實實在在告訴你們:即使天地過去了,一撇或一畫也決不會從法律上過去,必待一切完成。所以,誰若廢除這些誡命中最小的一條,也這樣教訓人,在天國裏,他將稱為最小的;但誰若實行,也這樣教訓人,這人在天國裏將稱為大的。」

(Memorial of Saint Justin, Martyr)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 5:13-19

Jesus said to his disciple “You are the salt of the earth. But if salt loses its taste, with what can it be seasoned? It is no longer good for anything but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. You are the light of the world. A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and then put it under a bushel basket; it is set on a lampstand, where it gives light to all in the house. Just so, your light must shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your heavenly Father. “Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. Amen, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or the smallest part of a letter will pass from the law, until all things have taken place. Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do so will be called least in the kingdom of heaven. But whoever obeys and teaches these commandments will be called greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

—The Gospel of the Lord.

瑪利亞就在那幾日動身,急速往山區去,到了猶大的一座城。她進了匝加利亞的家,就給依撒伯爾請安。依撒伯爾一聽到瑪利亞請安,胎兒就在她的腹中歡躍。依撒伯爾遂充滿了聖神,大聲呼喊說:「在女人中你是蒙祝福的,你的胎兒也是蒙祝福的。我主的母親駕臨我這裏,這是我那裏得來的呢?看,你請安的聲音一入我耳,胎兒就在我腹中歡喜踴躍。那信了由上主傳於她的話必要完成的,是有福的。」瑪利亞遂說:「我的靈魂頌揚上主,我的心神歡躍於天主、我的救主。因為他垂顧了他婢女的卑微,今後萬世萬代都要稱我有福;因全能者在我身上行了大事,他的名字是聖的。他的仁慈世世代代於無窮世,賜與敬畏他的人。他伸出了手臂施展大能,驅散那些心高氣傲的人。他從高座上推下權勢者,卻舉揚了卑微貧困的人。他曾使饑餓者飽饗美物,反使那富有者空手而去。他曾回憶起自己的仁慈:扶助了他的僕人以色列,正如他向我們的祖先所說過的恩許,施恩於亞巴郎和他的子孫,直到永遠。」瑪利亞同依撒伯爾住了三個月左右,就回本家去了。

(Feast of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 1:39-56

Mary set out and traveled to the hill country in haste to a town of Judah, where she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, “Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? For at the moment the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy. Blessed are you who believed that what was spoken to you by the Lord would be fulfilled.”
And Mary said:
“My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant. From this day all generations will call me blessed: the Almighty has done great things for me, and holy is his Name.
He has mercy on those who fear him in every generation. He has shown the strength of his arm, he has scattered the proud in their conceit. He has cast down the mighty from their thrones, and has lifted up the lowly. He has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent away empty. He has come to the help of his servant Israel for he has remembered his promise of mercy, the promise he made to our fathers, to Abraham and his children for ever.”
Mary remained with her about three months and then returned to her home.
