5 WEEKDAY READINGS SCRIPTURE INSIGHTS MONDAY, OCTOBER 30, 2017 ROMANS 8:12-17 LUKE 13:10-17 Today s readings show that the Commandments guide us imitate God s gracious ways of interacting with humanity. The First Reading from Exodus, is part of the code of Law that resulted from God s Covenant with the Israelites at Mount Sinai. It s a great example of what we call God s preferential option for the poor. God s care and compassion for the Israelites during their Exodus from Egypt becomes the model for how God s people should behave ward others, especially in the area of social justice. God established that principle first, as he gave Moses the Commandments: I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt (Exodus 20:2). In the Second Reading, Paul praises the church at Thessalonica for behaving in a similar manner. Even though they were suffering affliction, the people imitated Christ (and Paul) by accepting the Word of God with joy and living it so fully that their reputation spread throughout Greece and the Balkan Peninsula. Today s Gospel provides us with one of several confrontations between Jesus and different groups of religious authorities over interpretation of the Law. Here a scribe tries entrap Jesus by asking which is the greatest of the Laws of Moses. Jesus gives a response that might better be described as a summary of the Law: love God; love your neighbor as yourself. The Greek word is agapao, meaning have regard for the other. This is not emotional or sexual love. It is covenant love. Jesus declares that the entire religious tradition depends on covenant relationship with God that is expressed in love for others.

MARTIN DE PORRES, R ELIGIOUS ROMANS 9:1-5 LUKE 14:1-6 SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 2017 ST. CHARLES BORROMEO, BISHOP ROMANS 11:1-2A, 11-12, LUKE 14:1, 7-11 After rereading the Exodus passage, make two lists: actions the believer is called take and the rationale for those actions. What applications can you make your own time and place? The Responsorial Psalm describes the psalmist s love for God. With which words can you best identify your own feelings for God? With which reasons for loving God can you best identify? What do the two great commandments in the Gospel mean for you at this moment? Aunque no hay un Código de Vestimen escri sobre cómo deben vestirse los fieles cuando asisten a la Misa, el sentido común dicta vestimen adecuado y modes y un ambiente de silencio y devoción cuando en la Presencia Real del Señor. La Misa no es una reunión social. Aquellos que reconocen la Presencia Real del Señor en la Iglesia muestran respe, reverencia y orgullo.
