[Grem] A mai nagyböjti szentmise igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

* Friends, in today’s Gospel, the chief priests and Pharisees unite in a
plot to kill Jesus because he raised Lazarus from the dead.The Crucifixion
of Jesus is a classic instance of Catholic philosopher René Girard’s
scapegoating theory. He held that a society, large or small, that finds
itself in conflict comes together through a common act of blaming an
individual or group purportedly responsible for the conflict.It is utterly
consistent with the Girardian theory that Caiaphas, the leading religious
figure of the time, said to his colleagues, “It is better for you that one
man should die instead of the people, so that the whole nation may not
perish.”In any other religious context, this sort of rationalization would
be validated. But in the Resurrection of Jesus from the dead, this stunning
truth is revealed: God is not on the side of the scapegoaters, but rather
on the side of the scapegoated victim.The true God does not sanction a
community created through violence; rather, he sanctions what Jesus called
the kingdom of God, a society grounded in forgiveness, love, and
identification with the victim.*

*Dicsőség az Atyának, a Fiúnak és a Szentléleknek most és mindörökké. Ámen.*
