Re�lection of Today’s Gospel ~ Matthew 17:1–9 ~

This Gospel reading represents a confluence of themes

from the Old Testament. Mt. Tabor has been spoken of as

a second Mt. Sinai—where the Ten Commandments and

the ceremonial law of the Old Covenant were received.

This fits nicely into Matthew’s theme of Jesus as the new

Moses. Several elements in this narrative also suggest a

connection with the Jewish Feast of Booths (Sukkot).

It’s significant that Jesus’ coming to Mt. Tabor also results

in a manifestation of God’s glory and the presence of a

cloud, both of which are associated with the Feast of

Booths. Jesus is thereby simultaneously portrayed as the

new Law, the new manifestation of God, and the new

Temple; all of which were elements of importance in the

Jewish celebration of the Feast of Booths. It’s sometimes

overlooked that Moses and Elijah were the only two

figures in the Old Testament who spoke directly with God,

both on Mt. Horeb (another name for Mt. Sinai).

If Tabor is intended to represent a new Sinai, then we

ought to consider the possibility that Matthew is showing

us that Jesus is more than simply a new Moses or Elijah;

he’s also the God who spoke to Moses and Elijah on

Mt. Horeb—as he’s now shown doing on Mt. Tabor.

Question to Re�lect on… How can this week’s reading

help prepare us to live with the contrasts that occur in

the Christian life?

Resolution: This week, think about areas in your life that

need to be “transfigured” by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Choose one, and ask God to help you begin to work on

that area for the remaining weeks of Lent.

Lord hear our prayer.

Please call your prayer requests for upcoming

listings to Judy R. at 865.560.1574.

Holy Scripture makes it quite clear in the first reading

from Genesis and the second reading from Second

Timothy that God includes all of us among His blessings,

and He will provide us with all the strength we need to

fulfill His expectations. From the inclusion of “all the

communities of the earth” in Genesis to the assurance

that we can bear all hardships with “the strength that

comes from God” in the second reading we need to

recognize that this Lent is a time for us to respond to

God’s stewardship call. It is never too late to commit

ourselves to try to be more holy, and to try to be better

stewards of the incredible gifts we have received from

the Lord. The Gospel gives us just a glimpse of the glory

which awaits in Heaven. St. Peter’s offer to construct

three shelters to preserve this Heavenly experience and

Jesus’ ignoring that is a reminder to us that we cannot

have Heaven on earth. Nevertheless, this Lenten season

is a time for us to seek holiness and commit to lives of

stewardship as we await and seek our eternal reward.

Re�lexión del Evangelio de Hoy ~ Mateo 6:24-34

Esta lectura del Evangelio representa una confluencia

de temas del Antiguo Testamento. Se ha hablado de el

Monte Tabor como un segundo Monte Sinaí,

donde los diez mandamientos y la ley ceremonial de la

Antigua Alianza se recibieron . Esto encaja muy bien en

el tema de Mateo de Jesús como el nuevo Moisés.

Varios elementos de esta narrativa también sugieren

una conexión con la fiesta judía de los Tabernáculos

(Sukkot).Es significativo que la venida de Jesús al Monte

Tabor también da lugar a una manifestación de la gloria

de Dios y la presencia de una nube, ambos de los

cuales están asociados con la Fiesta de los

Tabernáculos. Jesús es retratado al mismo tiempo como

la nueva Ley, la nueva manifestación de Dios, y el nuevo

templo, todos los cuales eran elementos de importancia

en la celebración judía de la Fiesta de los Tabernáculos.

Es a veces que se pasa por alto que Moisés y Elías fueron

los dos únicos figuras del Antiguo Testamento que

hablan directamente con Dios, tanto en el Monte Horeb

(otro nombre para el Monte Sinaí). Si Tabor está

destinado a representar un nuevo Sinaí, entonces

debemos considerar la posibilidad de que Mateo nos

muestra que Jesús es más que simplemente un nuevo

Moisés o Elías, él es también el Dios que habló con

Moisés y Elías en el Monte Horeb-como él se

muestra ahora haciendo en el Monte Tabor.

Del 5 de marzo al 13 abril de 2014

Esta Cuaresma, únase a nosotros para apoyar a

nuestra sexta campaña anual de la Diócesis, 40 Días

por la Vida, en la que ofrecemos un testimonio de

oración, de amor y esperanza enfrente de la clínica

de “Planned Parenthood” (710 N. Cherry Street,

en Knoxville a la altura de la salida 390 de la I-40).

Planned Parenthood es el proveedor de abortos más

grande de la nación y estableció su clínica en

Knoxville en el año 2010. Nuestra vigilia pacífica y

respetuosa de la ley comenzo el Miércoles de Ceniza,

día 5 de marzo y se extenderá todos los días de

7:00am a 7:00pm hasta el Domingo de Ramos, 15 de

abril. Aunque muchas parroquias y organizaciones

católicas se han comprometido con días enteros de

oración, todavía necesitamos la generosidad de sus

oraciones y de su tiempo. Fueron las oraciones y

sacrificios de tantas personas las que contribuyeron

al cierre de la clínica de abortos en la calle

Concord Street hace dos años atrás.
