Thursday of the First Week in Ordinary Time
Gospel: Mark 1:40-45
The Leper

In the Gospel he wrote, St. Mark narrates many instances of Jesus cleansing lepers. Leprosy, like leprosy today, is highly contagious. For this reason, in Leviticus, the Lord instructed Moses: “Whoever has a leprous disease shall wear torn clothes and let the hair of his head be disheveled; and he shall cover his upper lip and cry out, ‘Unclean, unclean!’ He shall remain unclean as long as he has the disease; he is unclean. He shall live alone; his dwelling shall be outside the camp”(cf. Lev 13:45-46). From this, we see that for the Jews of Jesus’ time, one afflicted with leprosy had to be separated from family and social ties, thus being isolated by the entire community.

When we sin against God, our souls are afflicted with a leprosy of the spirit. Sin and leprosy alike make us feel alienated—a sense of estrangement that keeps us trapped under the dominion of sin and death. Therefore, today, let us learn from that courageous man who approached Jesus seeking cleansing, and actively turn to God, asking for His healing. The merciful God will surely touch our wounds with His own hand, heal the diseases of our souls and bodies, and restore us to freedom.

Having received Christ’s help, and having drawn from the fullness of grace in Christ all the graces we urgently and with faith seek from Him, we should not continue to be self-centered. Instead, we must center ourselves on the Word of God, imitating the healed leper in today’s Gospel: boldly proclaiming God’s mercy and love to the world, and bearing witness to Christ through our actions.

Savior Jesus, have mercy on us and cleanse us. Amen.

耶穌的醫治德能

我們時常會在生活中經驗到各種疾病,並飽受疾病給我們靈魂和肉身帶來的困擾。有時,當我們參與主日彌撒的時候,我們時常會忽略那些因疾病無法與我們一起參與彌撒的兄弟姐妹,他們猶如躺臥在床,正發著高熱的,西滿的岳母。亟需我們的幫助,亟需我們的祈禱,亟需我們將耶穌帶到他們的跟前。

今天,當我們把他們帶到耶穌跟前以前,先讓我們自省,看看自己是否也飽受疾病和罪過給我們的靈魂和肉身帶來的困擾。因為罪會使我們遠離天主,使我們不再具有天主兒女的形象,使我們與魔鬼和它的使者相似。因此,只有先接受不完美的自我,首先尋求耶穌的醫治,至關重要。因為這會有助於我們認清自己,並幫助那些急需我們幫助的人找到那條通往那能使我們每人的身、心、靈都能恢復如初的天主的坦途。

今天,耶穌同雅各伯和若望進到西滿和安德肋的家中的時候,那些與耶穌在一起的人向耶穌提及正患有高熱的西滿的岳母,並請求耶穌醫治她。他們給我們樹立了榜樣。讓我們效法他們的德表,主動為那些生活在各種不自由境況下的人求得天主的醫治和安慰。

耶穌,良善心謙者,求禰憐憫我們。亞孟。

Wednesday of the First Week in Ordinary Time
Gospel: Mark 1:29-39
The Healing Power of Jesus

We often experience various illnesses in life, enduring the afflictions they bring to both our souls and bodies. Sometimes, when we participate in Sunday Mass, we may overlook our brothers and sisters who are unable to join us due to illness—they are like Simon’s mother-in-law, lying in bed with a severe fever, in urgent need of our help, our prayers, and our bringing Jesus to them.

Today, before we bring others to Jesus, let us first examine ourselves: are we also burdened by the afflictions of illness and sin upon our souls and bodies? For sin separates us from God, robs us of the image of God’s children, and makes us resemble the devil and his messengers. Therefore, it is crucial that we first accept our imperfect selves and seek Jesus’ healing. This helps us recognize our true selves and guide those in need onto the straight path leading to God, who restores wholeness to each person’s body, mind, and spirit.

Today, when Jesus entered Simon and Andrew’s house with James and John, those who were with him told him about Simon’s mother-in-law, who was suffering from a severe fever, and begged him to heal her. They have set an example for us. Let us imitate their virtue, actively interceding for God’s healing and consolation for all those living in various situations of unfreedom.

Jesus, Gentle and Humble of Heart, have mercy on us. Amen.

福音:谷1:21-28
耶穌的驅魔權柄

今天教會慶祝聖依拉略(主教聖師)的自由紀念敬禮日。殉道聖人錄告訴我們:這位主教聖師出生在西元3世紀末或4世紀初。那時候,亞略異端在基督徒中間變得流行。西元353年,聖人被選為主教,在他最擔任主教的那些日子,聖人對這樣的異端並不熟悉,直到他被放逐以後,他才開始研究亞略異端,並撰寫了許多著作,以此來反駁這樣的一種異端文化。

今天的彌撒福音取自聖馬爾谷福音。聖史告訴我們:耶穌來到葛法翁的會堂,祂把天國的真相告訴給他們,祂沒有延續經師的教導。因為經師所宣講的天主,是一個被扭曲的天主的形象。這與今天在我們的教會內看到的情況相似,我們在聖堂參與彌撒時,我們的本堂神父,會在聖道禮儀,給我們講道。當我們聆聽天主透過他們向我們講話時,假如他們的講道,與我們慣常聽到的,有著不同,我們便會感到驚訝,因為在那時候,我們是按照自己的理解進行判斷,而非按照天主的聖意,進行判斷。

今天,聖馬爾谷告訴我們:耶穌不但在會堂裡進行了宣講,祂還以其天主子的權柄,驅逐了在那裡的不潔之神。這強有力的反駁了亞略異端,因為亞略異端主張:耶穌基督既然是由天主聖父所生的,就不能像天主聖父一樣無始無終,全能全知。

親愛的兄弟姐妹!雖然我們今天不在這葛法翁會堂內聆聽天主的聖言,親眼目睹耶穌為那附有不潔之神的人所做的一切,我們仍應在信德上站穩,在生活中,全然的接受基督的教導,善度每天的生活,善用天主藉著祂的鍾愛之子,向我們分施的各項恩寵。好使我們的思言行為,日益肖似基督,不斷追隨基督,走向永生。

聖依拉略主教,請為我們祈禱。亞孟。

今天教会庆祝圣依拉略(主教圣师)的自由纪念敬礼日。殉道圣人录告诉我们:这位主教圣师出生在公元3世纪末或4世纪初。那时候,亚略异端在基督徒中间变得流行。公元353年,圣人被选为主教,在他最担任主教的那些日子,圣人对这样的异端并不熟悉,直到他被放逐以后,他才开始研究亚略异端,并撰写了许多著作,以此来反驳这样的一种异端文化。

Tuesday of the First Week in Ordinary Time
Or Optional Memorial of St. Hilary of Poitiers (Bishop and Doctor of the Church)
Gospel: Mark 1:21-28
Jesus’ Authority to Cast Out Demons

Today, the Church celebrates the optional memorial of St. Hilary, Bishop and Doctor of the Church. The records of the martyrs tell us that this bishop and doctor was born in the late 3rd century or early 4th century. At that time, the Arian heresy became prevalent among Christians. In the year 353, St. Hilary was elected bishop. During the early days of his episcopate, he was not well acquainted with this heresy. It was only after he was exiled that he began to study the Arian heresy and wrote numerous works to refute this heretical doctrine.

Today’s Mass Gospel is taken from the Gospel of St. Mark. The evangelist tells us that Jesus came to the synagogue in Capernaum and proclaimed the truth of the Kingdom of God to them. He did not continue the teachings of the scribes. For the God proclaimed by the scribes was a distorted image of God. This is similar to what we sometimes see in our Church today. When we participate in the Mass in the church, our parish priest, during the Liturgy of the Word, delivers a homily. When we listen to God speaking to us through them, if their homilies are different from what we are accustomed to hearing, we may be surprised. At that moment, we tend to judge based on our own understanding rather than according to God’s holy will.

Today, St. Mark tells us that Jesus not only preached in the synagogue but also, with the authority of the Son of God, cast out the unclean spirit there. This powerfully refutes the Arian heresy, for the Arian heresy claimed that since Jesus Christ was begotten by God the Father, He could not be as eternal, omnipotent, and omniscient as God the Father.

Dear brothers and sisters! Although we are not present in the synagogue of Capernaum today to listen to God’s word and witness what Jesus did for the man possessed by an unclean spirit, we should still stand firm in faith and fully accept the teachings of Christ in our daily lives. We should make good use of the various graces that God bestows upon us through His beloved Son so that our thoughts, words, and deeds may increasingly resemble those of Christ, and we may continually follow Him towards eternal life.

St. Hilary, bishop, pray for us. Amen.

悔改並追隨耶穌

今天,耶穌來到加里肋亞宣講天主的福音。祂所宣講的福音,不是法利賽人,撒杜賽人,黑落德党人,百姓的經師和領袖所宣講的福音。祂所宣講的是愛的福音,祂要向所有人表明:祂所宣講天主,是一個主動與人來往,主動愛人,甚至為了世人,舍掉自己的天主。

聖史馬爾谷告訴我們:今天,耶穌召叫西滿和他的兄弟安德肋,載伯德的兒子雅各伯和若望,祂邀請他們成為祂的首批門徒。西滿、安德肋,雅各伯的若望,他們在完成各自的工作時蒙主召叫,他們並沒有貪戀當下他們所擁有的一切,沒有顧念他們的家人,他們選擇冒著風險,跟隨耶穌,選擇耶穌指給他們的一條新穎道路,以此給我們立了榜樣。

親愛的兄弟姐妹!天主時常會通過我們生活中經歷的一切來召叫我們,使我們從生活中發現天主在我們身上開始的計畫。因此,今天,讓我們效法西滿、安德肋,雅各伯的若望,在日常生活中通過祈禱來分辨天主在我們身上開始的工作,勇敢捨棄自己的一切,緊緊追隨基督,走向永生。

聖西滿、聖安德肋,聖雅各伯,聖若望,請為我們祈禱。亞孟。

Monday of the First Week in Ordinary Time
Gospel: Mark 1:14-20
Repent and Follow Jesus

Today, Jesus came to Galilee to proclaim the Gospel of God. The Gospel He proclaimed was not the same as that proclaimed by the Pharisees, Sadducees, Herodians, the scribes of the people, and their leaders. The Gospel He proclaimed was the Gospel of love. He wanted to show everyone that the God He proclaimed is a God who actively reaches out to people, who loves people, and who even gave Himself up for the sake of the world.

The Evangelist Mark tells us that today, Jesus called Simon and his brother Andrew, as well as James, the son of Zebedee, and John. He invited them to become His first disciples. Simon, Andrew, James, and John were called by the Lord while they were engaged in their respective work. They did not cling to what they had at that moment, nor did they worry excessively about their families. Instead, they chose to take the risk and follow Jesus, choosing the new path that Jesus pointed out to them. In doing so, they set an example for us.

Dear brothers and sisters! God often calls us through all the experiences we go through in life, enabling us to discover the plan that God has begun in us. Therefore, today, let us follow the example of Simon, Andrew, James, and John. In our daily lives, through prayer, let us discern the work that God has begun in us, courageously abandon everything of our own, and cling closely to Christ, walking toward eternal life.

Saint Simon, Saint Andrew, Saint James, Saint John, pray for us. Amen.
