Vangelo Domenica Mt 4:1-11 March 13
In quel Gesù fu tempo condotta dallo Spirito nel deserto dal diavolo per esser tentative. E dopo aver digiunato Quaranta giorni e quaranta notti, ebbe fame. Il tentatore allora gli si accostò e gli disse: “Se sei Figlio di Dio, di' che questi sassi diventino pane”. Ma egli rispose: “Sta scritto: Non di solo pane vivrà l'uomo, ma di ogni parola che esce dalla bocca di Dio ”. Allora il diavolo lo condusse con sé nella città santa, lo depose sul pinnacolo del tempio e gli disse: “Se sei Figlio di Dio, gettati giù, poiché sta scritto: Ai suoi angeli darà ordini a tuo riguardo, ed essi ti sorreggeranno con le loro mani, perché non abbia a urtare contro un sasso il tuo piede ”. Gesù gli rispose: “Sta scritto also: It groped the Lord your God. " Then the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory, and said: "All these things will I give thee, if, prostrate yourself and worship me." But Jesus answered him, "Begone, Satan! It is written: Worship the Lord your God and worship Him alone. " Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and ministered to him.
Gospel Domingo 13 de marzo Mt from 4.1 to 11
Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. And the tempter came and said, "If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become bread." Jesus replied: "It is written:" Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. " Then the devil took Jesus to holy city and placed in the top of the Temple, saying: "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, it is written: "God will command his angels, and they will carry in their hands so that your foot will not stumble over any stone." Jesus replied: "It is written:" Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. " The devil then took him to a very high mountain, and from there showed him all the kingdoms of the world in all its splendor, and said, 'I'll give you this, if thou wilt fall down and worship ".0 Jesus replied," Go away Satan, for it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God, and Him only worship them "." Then the devil left him, and angels came to serve.
Jesus retires in the desert to pray and here, in utter solitude, is tempted by the devil. The desert should be a place of silence and prayer, encounter with God, becomes a place of temptation and trial.
The three temptations suffered by Jesus are the same as those we are subject to all of us:
seek their own food outside of God, God groped to satisfy ourselves, to deny him follow many small idols before whom we prostrate every day.
The temptation is the moment when we are faced with two alternatives, one of which is false.
The clash between Jesus and the tempter ended with the victory of Jesus
Jesus won for us, but the victory of Jesus does not exempt us from fighting our daily battles against temptation, it is for everyone to do their own choice that should always be guided by faith and love, the choice to worship God and not the tempter. And it is in the Word of God that we find our light to overcome the temptations that we must accept the Word, deepen, custodire e vivere. Essa ci aiuterà a trovare la nostra pace e la nostra serenità.
Non è un luogo il deserto: è la tua vita che incessantemente rinasce e si rinnova nel silenzio adorante
Jesús se aparta en el desierto para rezar y aquí, en la completa soledad, es tentado por el diablo. El desierto era un lugar de silencio, de oración, de encuentro con Dios, pero se convierte en lugar de tentación, de prueba.
Las tres tentaciones soportadas por Jesús son las mismas a las que estamos sometidos all of us seek out God's own nutrition, to tempt God to satisfy ourselves, renegades to follow many small idols before which we bow to each day.
The temptation is the moment in which we find ourselves faced with two alternatives, one of which is false.
The clash between Jesus and the tempter is concluded with the victory of Jesus. Jesus has conquered for us also, but the victory of Jesus does not exempt us to fight our daily battles against the temptations, it is up to each of us to make their own choice que debería siempre ser guiada por la fe y el amor, la elección e adorar a Dios y no al tentador. Y es en la Palabra de Dios, que nosotros encontramos nuestra luz para vencer las tentaciones, Palabra que debemos acoger, profundizar, custodiar y vivir. La misma nos ayudará a encontrar nuestra paz y nuestra serenidad.
No es un lugar el desierto: es tu vida que incesantemente renace y se renueva en el silencio adorante.
