Our Lady of Sorrows Parish February 3rd, 2019
IV SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
Dear brothers and sisters,
In the synagogue of Nazareth Jesus reads Isaiah 61:1-
2, where the prophet announces the coming of the
Lord who will free his people from their afflictions:
“These words of St Luke make up the first messianic
declaration, from which flow the acts and words
known in the gospel. Through those words and works,
Christ makes his Father present among men” (St John
Paul II, div. mis., 3). Our Lord extends the meaning of
the passage by asserting the prophecy is fulfilled in
him. The message of salvation is nothing other than
himself: “Since he is the ‘Good News’, there is a
complete identity of message and messenger in Christ,
an identity of saying, acting and being” (St John Paul II,
Redempt. miss., 13). Also, his own countrymen reject
him because he depicts himself as the Messiah – the
first of many ways in which Jesus will suffer at the
hands of his people.
God bless you,
Fr. Francisco M. Tovar
