[Grem] *****SPAM(5.2)***** Re: A mai szentmise igéi

 *Friends, in today’s Gospel *Jesus promises peace to his disciples who
would abandon him at his arrest.

* "Behold, the hour is coming and has arrived when each of you will be
scattered . . . and you will leave me alone. But I am not alone, because
the Father is with me. I have told you this so that you might have peace in
me."And Jesus’ prophecy is fulfilled at the Resurrection. The disciples are
gathered in the upper room, that place of fear, and suddenly Jesus is in
their midst. *What is the reaction of the disciples?



*They are afraid. And no wonder: they had abandoned him.In the face of this
fear, Jesus does two simple things. First, he shows his wounds. Second, he
offers his peace. Both are important. By the first action, he reminds them
of the sins that put an end to his life. In the second great move, Jesus
says, "Shalom," which means peace. Jesus returns not with vengeance, not
with a renewal of violence, not with more of the same; rather, the violence
brought against him is met with shalom, the gift of peace.With this, a new
world opens up and a way out emerges.*
