L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
Bil-Malti hemm espressjoni li tgħid: “patta parapatta”. Tintuża l-aktar meta xi ħadd ipatti b’azzjoni ħażina għal azzjoni ħażina li jkun irċieva, qisha l-espressjoni li kien semma Ġesù “għajn b’għajn u sinna b’sinna” (Mt 5:38). Nafu kemm issir ħsara meta jiġri hekk, u speċjalment nafu x’ħerba ssir meta jkun hemm gwerra li tibda patta parapatta, u tispiċċa ħafna agħar. Bħalissa qegħdin naraw kemm vittmi innoċenti jispiċċaw maqtula f’Gaża, u ftit qabel kemm vittmi innoċenti spiċċaw maqtula f’Israel… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
“Kulma jgħidulkom huma, agħmluh u ħarsuh. Iżda tagħmlux kif jagħmlu huma” (Mt 23:3). Din il-kelma ta’ Ġesù li smajna fl-Evanġelju llum hi kelma ta’ għajnuna kbira għalina, għax issib nies li jkollhom din id-diffikultà, jgħidulek: “fil-Knisja hemm nies li huma ipokriti. Kultant tisma’ saċerdot qed jipprietka, imma ma tarahx jagħmel dak li jipprietka!” Hawn min li minħabba f’hekk, għax jidhirlu li s-saċerdot qed jgħid mod u jagħmel mod ieħor, jarmi kollox… Read more »
