4th Sunday in Lent Year A
Gospel: John 9:1-41
The Man Born Blind in Siloam

Today is the Fourth Sunday of Lent. The Gospel from Saint John tells us the mystery of Jesus healing a man born blind at the Pool of Siloam.

We often say that the eyes are the windows to the soul and an important way for us to perceive the world. When we cannot see what lies ahead, we lose our sense of direction. Sometimes, even though we can see what is happening before us, our lack of inner firmness still leaves us in confusion. Our understanding of God is no different. When we see people who suffer various misfortunes, have physical disabilities, or are wounded in spirit, we may, like the disciples of Jesus, think that their misfortune is due to the sins they have committed (cf. Jn 9:2). For we believe that the suffering they endure is because they (or their parents) did not accumulate merit for themselves.

When we receive the sacraments of initiation, we all receive the light from the Paschal Candle. This light is the Light of Christ, the light that shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it (cf. Jn 1:5). Furthermore, we receive the white garment symbolizing Christ from our godparents, so that we may put on Christ and be thoroughly cleansed of the stain of original sin and personal sins by the living water that gushed forth from His Sacred Side. We also receive the Holy Spirit of Christ and become children of God. In this way, we take up the responsibility and mission to proclaim the Gospel of God to all creation and to share all that Christ has done in us.

Today, Jesus healed this man born blind at the Pool of Siloam. The Pharisees repeatedly questioned him about this matter, intending to link him with the Messiah whom they did not acknowledge. This man born blind and his family stood firm under pressure and courageously testified to all that Jesus had done for him. Similarly, in life, we will constantly be asked by others about the source of our faith. Let us courageously imitate this man born blind and his family and boldly bear witness to the truth.

O God, who through your Word reconcile the human race to yourself in a wonderful way, grant, we pray, that with prompt devotion and eager faith the Christian people may hasten toward the solemn celebrations to come. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.

四旬期第三周星期六
福音：路18:9-14
效法稅吏，自謙自卑

今天是四旬期第三周星期六，取自聖路加記述的福音給我們講述了法利賽人和稅吏在聖殿中祈禱的場景。
我們知道，聖殿是敬禮和朝拜天主的場所。我們當下所處的聖堂也是如此，在我們的聖堂，有隱藏於聖體龕內的天主聖言，也有祭台，讀經台，有歌詠團，他們頌唱讚頌天主的聖歌，有讀經員，他們按照我們能懂的語言，給我們讀出天主的聖言，有我們敬愛的神父，他們在司鐸的座位上向我們宣講聖言，有來到天主的祭台前的天主子民，他們都按照自己的習慣，遵照教會的訓導，向天主致敬。
耶穌所說的法利賽人，指的是那些恪守天主的法律，特別注重外在的禮儀，喜歡受到世人的稱讚，常常與祂發生爭執的猶太人。有些聖經學家說：稅吏背棄了信仰，為了金錢背叛了自己的同胞，成了一個連窮人都剝削的人。因此，在我們看來，這兩人都不是義人，都是罪人。
我們能從法利賽人的祈禱（參看：路18:11-12）看出他的心境，他渴望能從天主那裡得到認可，他認為自己的義人，指責那些在他看來不配向天主獻上祈禱的人。他希望天主能像他一樣，公開譴責那個稅吏。因為在他看來，那聆聽他祈求的天主，是一個賞善罰惡的天主，而他所認為的善，就是遵守他為自己制訂的法律的人。稅吏則不然，他沒有如同那個法利賽人那樣（參看：路18:13）歌頌自己所做的一切，他甚至不敢望向天主，以此給我們立了榜樣。
今天，我們來到聖堂的時候，讓我們效法這個稅吏，靜靜坐在祭台前，不要如同法利賽人那樣誇誇其談，而是要像稅吏那樣，用最簡單的話向天主獻上祈禱。這簡單的祈禱就是：“上主，求祢憐憫我這個罪人。好使我能注目於祢的奧跡。”好使祂能按照祂的聖意，賜給我們各種各樣的恩典。

上主，我們每年歡欣踴躍，舉行四旬齋期。求祢使我們的心專注於復活奧跡，好使我們能因它們的圓滿恩效而喜樂。藉著祢的子，我們的主耶穌基督，祢和祂及聖神，是天主，永生永王。亞孟。

效法税吏，自谦自卑

今天是四旬期第三周星期六，取自圣路加记述的福音给我们讲述了法利赛人和税吏在圣殿中祈祷的场景。
我们知道，圣殿是敬礼和朝拜天主的场所。我们当下所处的圣堂也是如此，在我们的圣堂，有隐藏于圣体龛内的天主圣言，也有祭台，读经台，有歌咏团，他们颂唱讚颂天主的圣歌，有读经员，他们按照我们能懂的语言，给我们读出天主的圣言，有我们敬爱的神父，他们在司铎的座位上向我们宣讲圣言，有来到天主的祭台前的天主子民，他们都按照自己的习惯，遵照教会的训导，向天主致敬。
耶稣所说的法利赛人，指的是那些恪守天主的法律，特别注重外在的礼仪，喜欢受到世人的称赞，常常与祂发生争执的犹太人。有些圣经学家说：税吏背弃了信仰，为了金钱背叛了自己的同胞，成了一个连穷人都剥削的人。因此，在我们看来，这两人都不是义人，都是罪人。
我们能从法利赛人的祈祷（参看：路18:11-12）看出他的心境，他渴望能从天主那里得到认可，他认为自己的义人，指责那些在他看来不配向天主献上祈祷的人。他希望天主能像他一样，公开谴责那个税吏。因为在他看来，那聆听他祈求的天主，是一个赏善罚恶的天主，而他所认为的善，就是遵守他为自己制订的法律的人。税吏则不然，他没有如同那个法利赛人那样（参看：路18:13）歌颂自己所做的一切，他甚至不敢望向天主，以此给我们立了榜样。
今天，我们来到圣堂的时候，让我们效法这个税吏，静静坐在祭台前，不要如同法利赛人那样夸夸其谈，而是要像税吏那样，用最简单的话向天主献上祈祷。这简单的祈祷就是：“上主，求祢怜悯我这个罪人。好使我能注目于祢的奥迹。”好使祂能按照祂的圣意，赐给我们各种各样的恩典。

上主，我们每年欢欣踊跃，举行四旬斋期。求祢使我们的心专注于复活奥迹，好使我们能因它们的圆满恩效而喜乐。藉着祢的子，我们的主耶稣基督，祢和祂及圣神，是天主，永生永王。亚孟。

Saturday of the Third Week of Lent
Gospel: Luke 18:9-14
Imitate the Tax Collector, Humbly Recognizing Our Unworthiness

Today is the Saturday of the Third Week of Lent. The Gospel passage taken from Saint Luke recounts the scene of a Pharisee and a tax collector praying in the Temple.
We know the Temple was a place of worship and adoration of God. So too is our present-day church: within its walls, hidden in the tabernacle, is the Word of God made flesh; there is the altar, the lectern, and the choir, which sings hymns praising God; there are lectors who proclaim God’s Word in language we can understand; there is our beloved priest, who preaches from the Ambo; and there are the people of God, who approach the altar to pay homage to God according to their custom and in obedience to the Church’s teachings.
The Pharisee Jesus speaks of refers to those Jews who strictly observed the laws of God but emphasized external rituals, sought the praise of others, and often clashed with Him. Some biblical scholars note that tax collectors abandoned their faith, betrayed their own people for money, and became exploiters even of the poor. Thus, in our eyes, neither of these two men was righteous—both were sinners.
From the Pharisee’s prayer (cf. Luke 18:11-12), we see his heart: he desired recognition from God, considering himself righteous and condemning those he deemed unworthy to pray to God. He hoped God would publicly condemn the tax collector, just as he did. To him, the God who heard his prayers was one who rewards the good and punishes the wicked—and by “good,” he meant those who obeyed the laws he had added to God’s commandments. The tax collector was different: unlike the Pharisee (cf. Luke 18:13), he did not boast of his own deeds. He dared not even lift his eyes to God, setting an example for us.

As we come to church today, let us imitate this tax collector: sit quietly before the altar, not boasting as the Pharisee did, but offering a prayer to God in the simplest words. This simple prayer is: “Lord, have mercy on me, a sinner, that I may fix my gaze on Your mysteries.”May He grant us various graces according to His holy will.

Rejoicing in this annual celebration of our Lenten observance, we pray, O Lord, that, with our hearts set on the paschal mysteries, we may be gladdened by their full effects. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,God, for ever and ever. Amen.

四旬期第三周星期五
福音：谷12:28-34

我們時常如同福音中的經師那樣，認為只要遵循世間法則中的基礎法則就能生存，並使自己過上更好的生活，甚至會選擇精打細算，用最小成本謀求最大收益。

我們時常如同福音中的經師那樣，在天主透過祂的教會向我們宣講的聖言，我們的主耶穌基督教給我們的全部誡命中尋找對我們有利的，摒棄一切對我們不利的，遵循我們認為重要的法律，輕看那些在我們看來是次要的。而造成我們進行這樣選擇的，是源于我們的原罪，罪使我們變得不安，罪使我們變得不自由。

今天，耶穌教給我們兩條誡命：“以色列，請聽！我們的天主上主是唯一的天主。你們應全心，全靈，全意，全力，愛上主，你們的天主。’第二條誡命是：你們應如同愛自己一樣，愛你們的近人。再沒有別的誡命大過這兩條了。”（參看：穀12:29-31）祂並不是要廢除別的誡命，而是在給我們講述天主在西奈山上賜給梅瑟的十誡的精髓。因為對我們而言，天主十誡不是沉重的誡命，而是一部愛的誡命，天主要求我們愛祂，祂說：“凡愛慕我，遵守我誡命的，我要對他們施仁慈，直到他們的千代子孫”（參看：出20:6）更要求我們與人為善（參看：出20:12-17）而這一切，恰恰與耶穌所說的完全對應。

在此四旬期，讓我們總不要忘記藉著祈禱與天主相遇，每天誦讀天主聖言，聆聽天主的訓誨，在生活中，總隨從天主聖神的指引，活出福音的精神。

上主，求祢在我們的心中傾注祢的恩典，好使我們始終遠離那難以節制的偏情，賴祢親自賜下的恩典，服從祢自天賜下的訓誨。藉著祢的子，我們的主耶穌基督，祢和祂及聖神，是天主，永生永王。亞孟。

Friday of the Third Week of Lent
Gospel: Mark 12:28-34

We often act like the scribe in the Gospel, believing that by following the basic principles of worldly laws, we can survive and improve our lives. We even become calculating, seeking the greatest return for the smallest cost.
We also often resemble that scribe, searching among the sacred words proclaimed by the Church—the very precepts taught to us by our Lord Jesus Christ, the commandments—for those that benefit us. We reject whatever seems disadvantageous, following only the laws we deem important while neglecting those we consider secondary. This tendency stems from our Original Sin; sin makes us restless and robs us of true freedom.
Today, Jesus teaches us two commandments: “Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is Lord alone! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbour as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” (cf. Mk 12:29-31) He does not intend to abolish the other commandments, but rather to reveal the essence of the Ten Commandments given by God to Moses on Mount Sinai. For us, the Ten Commandments are not a burdensome set of rules, but a law of love. God asks us to love Him, saying, “I, the Lord, show mercy to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments” (cf. Ex 20:6), and He further asks us to do good to others (cf. Ex 20:12-17). All this corresponds perfectly with what Jesus said.
In this Lenten season, let us never forget to encounter God through prayer, to daily read the Word of God, and to listen to His teachings. In our lives, let us always follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit, living according to the spirit of the Gospel.

Pour your grace into our hearts, we pray, O Lord, that we may be constantly drawn away from unruly desires and obey by your own gift the heavenly teaching you give us. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,God, for ever and ever

福音：路11:14-23

我們在生活中，時常會因自己在生活中所做的一切，遭受他人的非議。特別是當我們自發地援助那些孤苦弱小者的時候，那些親眼目睹我們做這些善舉的人，他們也會如同眼見耶穌從人身上驅逐魔鬼的群眾一樣（參看：路11:15-16）認為我們之所以能有如此成就，並非出於善行，而是出於滿足自己的私欲，以使自己以在此變幻塵世得到稱譽。

我們經受非議的時候，應當如何做，才能配受天主的祝福呢？假如我們與那些在某些事情上與我們持不同觀點的人辯論，並試圖按我們自己的理智，與他們一較高下，我們便如同耶穌所說的那樣（參看：路11:17-19）失去了天主原先賞賜我們的平安，致使我們因仇恨彼此，一同陷入永久的喪亡之中。但假如我們試著向“由地上被高舉，吸引眾人歸向祂”（參看：若12:31B-32）的基督學習，便會發現：在世人看來，十字架原為極其殘酷的刑具，它使人與人之間滿布仇恨；但為那些藉著領受基督的洗禮，“將舊人與基督同釘在十字架上，便那屬罪惡的自我消逝，不再作罪惡的奴隸”（參看：羅6:6）； “依賴聖神，致死肉性的妄動，隨從天主聖神的引導，成為天主的子女”（參看：羅8:13-14）；分享“同一祝福之杯，同一擘開的餅，共結合於耶穌基督內”（參看：格前10:1-17）的人來說，十字架並非是一個製造分裂的刑具，而是一個與天父和祂創造的萬有重修舊好的標記，因為那被高懸於十字架上的基督，曾“以大聲哀號和眼淚，向那能救祂脫離死亡的天主，獻上了祝福和懇求”（參看：希5:7）當祂身懸于十字架上時，祂向天父祈求說：“父啊，寬赦他們吧，因為他們不知道自己做的是什麼。”（參看：路23:34）

尊威的上主，我們得救的慶節，日漸臨近，謙恭求祢：使我們能更熱切，更相稱慶祝這逾越奧跡。藉著祢的子，我們的主耶穌基督，祢和祂及聖神是天主，永生永王。亞孟。

Thursday of the Third Week of Lent
Gospel: Luke 11:14-23

In our lives, we often face criticism for all that we do. Especially when we spontaneously assist those who are lonely and vulnerable, those who witness our good deeds may, like the crowds who saw Jesus driving out demons (cf. Lk 11:15-16), believe that our achievements are not from good works but from satisfying our own desires to gain praise in this fleeting world.

How should we act when we endure such criticism, that we may be worthy of God’s blessing? If we debate with those who hold different views on certain matters and try to outwit them with our own reason, we would, as Jesus said (cf. Lk 11:17-19), lose the peace God originally bestowed upon us, leading us to fall into eternal perdition together in hatred for one another. But if we strive to learn from Christ, “the One lifted up from the earth [who] will draw all to Himself” (cf. Jn 12:31B-32), we will discover this: in the eyes of the world, the cross was once an instrument of extreme cruelty, sowing hatred among people; yet for those who, through Baptism in Christ, “have crucified the old self with Christ, so that the self belonging to sin might die and we might no longer be slaves to sin” (cf. Rom 6:6); who “rely on the Holy Spirit to put to death the misdeeds of the body and follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit, becoming children of God” (cf. Rom 8:13-14); and who share “the one cup of blessing which we bless, and the one bread which we break, and are all united in Jesus Christ” (cf. 1 Cor 10:1-17)—for these, the cross is not an instrument of division, but a sign of reconciliation with the Father and all His creation. For the Christ lifted high on the cross once “with loud cries and tears, offered prayers and supplications to the One who could save Him from death” (cf. Heb 5:7). As He hung on the cross, He prayed to the Father: “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing” (cf. Lk 23:34).

We implore your majesty most humbly, O Lord,
that, as the feast of our salvation draws ever closer,
so we may press forward all the more eagerly
towards the worthy celebration of the Paschal Mystery.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever
