L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
Il-ġrajja tat-Trasfigurazzjoni tal-Mulej fuq il-muntanja hi ġrajja li baqgħet stampata fil-moħħ u fil-qalb ta’ dawk it-tlett iħbieb ta’ ġewwa li Ġesù ħa miegħu – Pietru, Ġwanni u Ġakbu.
X’jiġri fuq din il-muntanja? Ġesù, jgħidilna San Luqa fl-Evanġelju, tela’ hemm bi skop: biex jitlob. U kien proprju huwa u jitlob li sseħħ bidla li jistgħu jarawha t-tlett iħbieb: fid-dehra ta’ wiċċu, u l-ilbiesi li saru ta’ bjuda li tgħammex… Read more »
L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
Fl-Evanġelju tal-lum Ġesù jieħu tlieta mid-dixxipli għezież tiegħu, inzertaw tliet sajjieda: Pietru jew Xmun Pietru u ż-żewġt aħwa Ġakbu u Ġwanni, ulied Żebedew. Jeħodhom miegħu u jsejħilhom jitilgħu fuq muntanja. L-Evanġelju ta’ San Luqa jgħidilna li t-tradizzjoni tgħid li fuq il-Muntanja Tabor u l-Evanġelju ta’ San Luqa l-Mulej inġabar fit-talb. “Ġara li huwa hu jitlob id-dehra ta’ wiċċu tbiddlet u l-ilbiesi tiegħu saru ta’ bjuda li tgħammex” (Lq 9:29) … Read more »

Suddenly they saw two men, Moses and Elijah, talking to him. They appeared in glory and were speaking of his departure, which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem… Read more »
L-Arċidjoċesi ta’ Malta se tagħti b’self sitt statwi tal-kartapesta indurati lill-Faċilità Korrettiva ta’ Kordin sabiex jintramaw fuq l-artal maġġur tal-kappella tal-ħabs.
