Sunday Readings:
Isaiah 53:10–11 If he gives his life as an offering for sin, he shall see his descendants in a long life.
Psalm 33 “Lord, let your mercy be on us, as we place our trust in you.”
Hebrews 4:14–16 Let us confidently approach the throne of grace.
Mark 10:35–45 or 10:42–45 The Son of Man came to give his life a ransom for many.
Today’s readings, with their focus on Jesus’ ultimate sacrifice, recall the readings of Holy Week. Today’s passage from Isaiah is part of the longer passage we hear on Good Friday, describing the Suffering Servant, whose voluntary suffering atones for the sins of many. Today’s Gospel foreshadows Holy Thursday’s Gospel, with Jesus telling his disciples that he came to serve, not to be served. As the author of Hebrews says, let us look to Jesus for timely help.~ from Pastoral Patterns, fall 2021
Lecturas dominicales:
Isaías 53, 10–11; Salmo 32; Hebreos 4, 14–16; Marcos 10, 35–45 o 10, 42–45
Las lecturas de hoy con su enfoque en el sacrificio definitivo de Jesús nos recuerdan las lecturas de la Semana Santa. El pasaje de Isaías hoy es parte del pasaje más largo que escuchamos el Viernes Santo y que describe al Siervo sufriente, cuyo sufrimiento voluntario expía los pecados de muchos. El Evangelio de hoy augura el Evangelio del Jueves Santo cuando Jesús les dice a sus discípulos que él vino a servir y no a ser servido. Como dice el autor de la carta a los hebreos, acudamos a Jesús para obtener ayuda en el momento oportuno. ~de las publicaciones de WLP Gia, Pastoral Patterns
