Twenty-eighth Week in Ordinary Time

Luke 11:37-41




*Friends, Jesus concludes today’s Gospel by prescribing giving alms as a
key to holiness. I’ve quoted to you before some of the breathtaking remarks
of saints and popes about almsgiving: Leo XIII says, "Once the demands of
necessity and propriety have been met, the rest of your money belongs to
the poor." John Chrysostom says, "The man who has two shirts in his closet,
one belongs to him; the other belongs to the man who has no shirt."The
deepest root of all of this is in the prophets, who continually rail
against those who are indifferent to the poor. The prophets teach us that
compassion is key to biblical ethics, feeling the pain of others in our own
hearts. We’re not dealing with an abstract Aristotelian moral philosophy,
but rather with something more visceral. This is precisely why the two
great commandments are so tightly linked: "Love the Lord your God with all
your heart…and love your neighbor as yourself." In loving God you feel the
feelings of God, and God is compassionate to the poor and oppressed. That’s
all the argument that a biblical person needs.*
