L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
F’Ħadd il-Għid, il-Mulej Rxoxt juri lilu nnifsu lil Marija Maddalena li tmur tavża lill-ħdax u d-dixxipli: “il-Mulej qam tassew”. Tnejn minnhom jitilqu minn Ġerusalemm. L-aħbar li semgħu ħawdithom u ma ġabitilhomx paċi f’qalbhom. Jerħulha għal għonq it-triq lejn villaġġ jismu Għemmaws; il-Mulej ma jabbandunahomx imma jissieħeb magħhom u huma ma setgħux jagħrfuh. Ġesù jibda jispjegalhom l-Kelma ta’ Alla u xħin jaslu qrib il-villaġġ jagħmel tabirruħu li se jkompli fit-triq u jgħidulu: “Ibqa magħna, għax issa sar ħafna ħin u l-jum ġa wasal biex jintemm” (Lq 24:29)… Read more »
L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
Il-ġrajja ta’ meta Kristu Rxoxt jidher lid-dixxipli tiegħu hi ġrajja li turina l-bidla li sseħħ fid-dixxipli hekk kif Kristu ħaj ikun preżenti fosthom.
Il-bidla
Id-dixxipli, kif rawh, “twerwru bil-biża’”. U ħasbuh xi fantażma. Hu kien qalilhom, żmien qabel, li kellu jgħaddi mill-passjoni u l-mewt u jqum mill-imwiet. Imma għalihom tant kienet esperjenza iebsa u diffiċli li jarawh jispiċċa fix-xejn fuq is-salib, li kienet esperjenza li tilfitilhom kull tama… Read more »
L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
L-Evanġelju tal-lum jibda billi jsemmi żewġ dixxipli; ir-rakkont tal-esperjenza tagħhom qrajnieh f’jum il-Għid il-Kbir u aħna nafuhom bħala ż-żewġ dixxipli ta’ Għemmaws. Meta jagħrfu lil Ġesù, jirritornaw minn fejn kienu ġew, jirritornaw Ġerusalemm u jgħidu lill-ħdax li kienu għarfu lil Ġesù fil-qsim tal-ħobż (Lq 24:35). Din l-espressjoni sabiħa, ‘il-qsim tal-ħobż’, hija l-iżjed isem antik li aħna l-Insara għandna għall-Ewkaristija: il-qsim tal-ħobż… Read more »

Għada l‑Ħadd, 18 ta’ April 2021, il‑Knisja f’Malta se tfakkar Jum il‑Karità.
