“Jiena ngħolli għalihom sinjal, u nibgħat […] lejn ix-xtut imbiegħda li qatt ma semgħu bija, u qatt ma raw is-sebħ tiegħi, u huma jxandru s-sebħ tiegħi qalb il-ġnus” (Iż 66:19).

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
“Il-qofol tal-Liġi kollha u tal-Profeti” (Mt 22:40). Dan hu li jgħid Ġesù llum meta jsemmi liema kmandament hu l-aktar importanti u jiġi l-ewwel, anzi hu jgħaqqad tnejn flimkien.
