The 15th Sunday In Ordinary Time

Welcome to

St. Joseph Church, 7240 W. 57th St.,

Summit, Illinois 60501-1324

“They stripped man of his immortality and wounded him (by persuading to sin).”

St. Augustine

This Sunday, we hear of one of the most famous and beautiful parables of Jesus: the Parable of the Good Samaritan. The Spanish artist Pelegrin Clave (1811-1880) puts the words of Jesus into art splendidly. In the center, we see the image of the good Samaritan, dressed in red and gold, nursing the man who was beaten and robbed. To the right of the good Samaritan is his donkey, grazing on some green grass. Behind the donkey’s behind, we see the priest who passed by, and next to the donkey’s head, we see the Levite, dressed like a Franciscan friar with tonsured head, who is also passing by. The Gospel of Luke tells us the man journeying down from Jerusalem was stripped, beaten, and left for dead. In this painting by Clave, we see the man is stripped and lying half dead, but he doesn’t look beaten. Unlike many other paintings of this parable, which show the man bleeding and

wounded, Pelegrin’s man has no visible external wounds In Pelegrin’s image, we see the good Samaritan tending to the man’s head, but we see no wound on the head. Pelegrin is teaching us that the wounds that are being healed are internal. The man symbolizes humanity, who was beaten and robbed by the devil. Writing on this parable, the great patristic Father and Doctor of the Church, St. Augustine teaches us, “they stripped man of his immortality and wounded him (by persuading to sin).”

This wound that St. Augustine talks about is called concupiscence. Concupiscence is the frailty and weakness of human nature, as a result of Original Sin, that disorders our appetites (a word in philosophy and theology that means desires) and inclines the human person to sin (Catechism, 1426). After understanding the meaning of concupiscence, Pelegrin’s depiction of the man’s wounds makes perfect sense. There are no external wounds to see, like blood, because the man wasn’t primarily wounded physically, externally. Rather, man was wounded internally, spiritually. Pelegrin masterfully illustrates that our will and intellect have been wounded. Our choice for good or evil resides in the mind, or intellect, but as a result of Original sin, “man’s freedom is limited and fallible” (Catechism, 1739). As St. Augustine teaches, we are wounded, and as a result, easily persuaded to sin, to choose wrong/evil. In Pelegrin’s painting, we see the good Samaritan (symbol for Jesus) healing the man’s head because humanity’s will (our choice for good or evil) is wounded. Concupiscence, the disordered appetites and attachment to sin brought about by Original Sin, is cured only through Jesus. Let us pray to Christ to heal our wills with His grace that we may love God, know what is good, avoid evil, and choose what is right/good in our lives. Please pray for safe travel for all young people who are travelling to World Youth Day in Krakow, Poland, particularly all young people from the Archdiocese of Chicago. May our Blessed Mother Mary help us with her maternal care and St. Joseph pray for us. Vivat Jesus! Live Jesus!

Informes Padre Bob

Este domingo, se habla de una de las más famosas y bellas parábolas de Jesús: la parábola del buen sa-maritano. El artista español Pelegrín Clavé (1811-1880) pone las palabras de Jesús en el arte espléndi-damente. En el centro, vemos la imagen del buen samaritano, vestido de color rojo y oro, cuidando el hombre que fue golpeado y robado. A la derecha del buen samaritano esta su burro, comiendo un poco de pasto verde. Detrás del burro, vemos el cura que pasaba, y al lado de la cabeza del burro, vemos el levita, vestido como un fraile franciscano con la cabeza tonsurada, que también está pasando. El Evangelio de Lucas nos dice que el hombre viajando en el camino de Jerusalén fue despoja-do, golpeado y dejado por muerto. En esta pintura de Clavé, vemos que el hombre es despojado y acos-tado medio muerto, pero no se ve vencido. A diferencia de muchas otras pinturas de esta parábola, que

muestran al hombre sangrado y herido, el hombre en la pintura de Pelegrín no tiene heridas visibles exter-nas. En la imagen de Pelegrín, vemos el buen samaritano que atiende la cabeza del hombre, pero no ve-mos ninguna herida en la cabeza. Pelegrín nos enseña que las heridas que están siendo cura-das son internas. El hombre simboliza la humanidad, que fue golpeada y robada por el demonio. Escribien-do en esta parábola, el gran Padre patrística y doctor de la Iglesia, San Agustín nos ense-ña, "despojaron al hombre de su inmorta-lidad y lo hirieron (por convencer al pecado).” La herida de la que habla San Agustín se llama concupiscen-cia. La concupiscencia es la fragilidad y la debilidad de la naturaleza humana, como consecuencia del Pecado Original, que trastorna nuestro apetito (una palabra en filosofía y teología que significa deseos) e inclina a la persona humana al pecado (Catecismo, 1426). Después de entender el significado de la concupiscencia, la representación de las heridas del hombre de Pelegrín tiene mucho sentido. No hay heridas externas visibles, como la sangre, debido a que el hombre no estaba herido físicamente, externamente. Por el contrario, el hombre fue herido interiormente, espiritualmente. Pelegrín ilustra con maes-tría que nuestra voluntad e intelecto han sido heridos. Nuestra elección para el bien o el mal reside en la mente, o el intelec-to, pero como resultado del pecado original, "la libertad del hombre es limitada y falible" (Catecismo, 1739). Como enseña San Agustín, estamos heridos, y como resultado, fáciles de persuadir al pecado, para elegir lo equivocado/mal. En la pintura de Pelegrín, vemos el buen samaritano (símbolo de Jesús) curando la cabeza del hombre, porque la voluntad de la humani-dad (nuestra elección para el bien o el mal) ha sido herida. La concupiscencia, los apetitos desordenados y el apego al peca-do provocados por el pecado original, se cura sólo a través de Jesús. Pidamos a Cristo para sanar nuestra voluntad con su gracia para que podamos amar a Dios, saber lo que es bueno, evitar el mal, y elegir lo que es correcto/bueno en nuestras vidas.

Por favor oren por un viaje seguro para todos los jóvenes que viajan a World Youth Day (Día Mundial de la Juven-tud) en Cracovia, Polonia, en particular todos los jóvenes de la Arquidiócesis de Chicago. Que Nuestra Santa Madre María nos ayude con su cuidado maternal y San José ruega por nosotros. Vivat Jesus! ¡Viva Jesús!

Z biurka Ks. Proboszcza 

W tym tygodniu usłyszeliśmy bodaj najpiękniejszą, najbardziej znaną przypowieść Jezusa – tę o Dobrym Samarytaninie. Jej treść wspaniale przelał na płótno hiszpański artysta, Pelegrin Clave (1811-1880). Pośrodku widzimy ubranego w złoto i czerwień Dobrego Samarytanina, opiekującego się mężczyzną, którego pobito i okradziono. Na prawo od Samarytanina, jego osiołek skubie zieloną trawę. Za osiołkiem widzimy przechodzącego akurat tamtędy kapłana, zaś obok łba osiołka przechodzi Lewita w przebraniu franciszkańskiego mnicha. W Ewangelii według św. Łukasza zapisano, iż mężczyzna wędrujący z Jerozolimy został napadnięty, pobity, okradziony i pozostawiony nagi na pastwę losu. Na obrazie

Clave'a widać, że owszem – nieszczęśnik został okradziony i rozebrany do naga, lecz na pobitego nie wygląda. W przeciwieństwie do wielu innych przedstawień tej sceny, na których mężczyzna jest posiniaczony i krwawi, u Pelegrina ten nieszczęśnik nie ma żadnych widocznych ran. Na powyższym obrazie Dobry Samarytanin opatruje napadniętemu głowę, jednak nie wygląda ona na ranną. To dlatego, iż Samarytanin zajmuje się duchowymi ranami tego człowieka. Napadnięty mężczyzna symbolizuje tutaj całą ludzkość, napadniętą i pobitą przez diabła. W swoim komentarzu do tego fragmentu, św. Augustyn z Hippony stwierdza, iż „człowiekowi skradziono nieśmiertelność i zraniono go (nakłaniając do grzechu)”. Ową raną, którą ma na myśli św. Augustyn, jest pożądliwość. Jest to słabość natury ludzkiej, pozostałość po Grzechu Pierworodnym (por. Katechizm Kościoła Katolickiego 1426). Kiedy już pojmiemy istotę pożądliwości, zaczniemy też lepiej rozumieć obraz Pelegrina Clave'a. Nieszczęśnik nie ma na ciele widocznych ran, gdyż nie został pobity fizycznie, lecz raczej duchowo. Artysta cudownie podkreśla fakt, że dusza i umysł człowieka zostały zranione. Nasza zdolność wyboru między dobrem a złem jest domeną woli, umysłu. Jednak z powodu Grzechu Pierworodnego „wolność człowieka jest ograniczona i omylna” (Katechizm Kościoła Katolickiego 1739). Według św. Augustyna, zostaliśmy zranieni, łatwo nas więc nakłonić do złego. Dobry Samarytanin (na obrazie Pelegrina symbolizujący Chrystusa) leczy głowę człowieka, bowiem nasza wola (zdolność) wyboru dobra została uszkodzona. Tylko Jezus Chrystus może nas wyzwolić z pożądliwości i przywiązania do grzechu, które są konsekwencją Grzechu Pierworodnego. Módlmy się do Pana, aby mocą Swej Łaski uleczył naszą wolę, strzegł nas od złego i pomagał dokonywać w życiu właściwych wyborów. Pamiętajmy w modlitwie o wszystkich tych, którzy wybierają się do Krakowa na Światowe Dni Młodzieży; zwłaszcza za młodzież z Archidiecezji Chicago. Święta Maryjo Rozwiązująca Węzły, miej nas zawsze w Swej opiece. Święty Józefie, módl się za nami.
