[Grem] A mai szentmise igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, in today’s Gospel, Jesus is rejected by the people of his own
town. For as he says, “A prophet is not without honor except in his native
place.” But he astounded crowds throughout Galilee because he taught with
authority.As far as we can determine, Jesus was not formally trained in a
rabbinic school, nor was he educated to be a temple priest or a scribe, nor
was he a devotee of the Pharisees, the Saduccees, or the Essenes. He was,
if I can use a somewhat anachronistic term, a layman. And this made his
arrival on the public scene all the more astounding. *
*For this Nazarene carpenter with no formal religious education or
affiliation began to speak and act with an unprecedented authority. To the
crowds who listened to him preach, he blithely declared, “You have heard it
said, but I say . . .” He was referring, of course, to the Torah, the
teaching of Moses, the court of final appeal to any faithful rabbi; and
therefore, he was claiming for himself an authority greater than that of
Israel’s most significant teacher and lawgiver.*

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