[Grem] A mai szentmise igéi

[Emoke Greschik]

*Friends, today is the Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord. After his
Resurrection, Jesus continued to appear to his disciples for a time—the
standard biblical frame of forty days—and then stopped. The Ascension of
Jesus signals the definitive end of these post-Resurrection appearances and
the commencement of Jesus’ operation from the properly heavenly sphere. It
is crucial to remember, however, that this distantiation by no means
amounts to an abandonment, but rather to an even more intense form of
intimacy. To move into heaven, or the divine manner of existence, is* not
to move to another place but* to that arena of existence that stands
outside of space. Paul Tillich refers to God’s Überräumlichkeit
(over-spacedness), and he insists that this transcendence to any particular
space implies the capacity to be present to every space. *This is what we
mean when we say that


*God is “everywhere.” Therefore, to say that Jesus has “ascended” to that
sphere of existence is not to say that he has “gone away.” It is to assert,
if I can adopt a military metaphor, that he has journeyed to a higher point
of vantage, where he can see the entire field of battle and direct
operations more efficaciously.  *

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