We will be judged according to how we judge others – The Archbishop

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Il-Kelma ta’ Ġesù hi ċara ħafna. Anke l-parabbola li jagħtina llum hi parabbola qawwija u għażiża. Aħna min jaf kemm-il darba, kuljum, għandna bżonn nitolbu maħfra lil Alla ta’ xi nuqqas, ta’ xi dnub, ta’ xi falliment, ta’ xi kattiverja. Imbagħad insibuha bit-tqila, li dak li Alla jagħmel magħna, nagħmluh ma’ ħaddieħor. Għalhekk il-Mulej, fit-talba li għallimna, għallimna nitolbu hekk: “Aħfrilna dnubietna, bħalma naħfru lil minn hu ħati għalina” (Mt 6:12)… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

Tolqotna r-reazzjoni vjolenti tan-nies li fis-sinagoga kienu qed jisimgħu lil Ġesù. Meta semgħuh, jgħidilna l-Evanġelju, dawn qamu, ħarġuh ’il barra mill-belt, ħaduh fuq xifer ta’ rdum tal-għolja li fuqha kienet mibnija l-belt tagħhom, u riedu jixħtuh minn hemm fuq għal isfel. Verament vjolenti! Lanqas tgħid, pereżempju, li waqt li qed jitkellem Ġesù kien hemm xi ħadd u beda jgħajjat li ma jaqbilx miegħu, jew qalulu “itlaq ’il barra mis-sinagoga”… Read more »
