[Grem] *****SPAM(10.2)***** Gospel meditation + 'Úr angyala'

[Emoke Greschik]

Friends, in today’s Gospel, *Jesus recognizes the prudence of the ten wise
virgins*. *In the Middle Ages, prudence was called “the queen of the
virtues,” because it enabled one to do the right thing in a particular
situation. Prudence is a feel for the moral situation,* something like the
feel that a quarterback has for the playing field or a politician has for
the voters in his district.

*Wisdom is, like prudence, a kind of vision, but it is, unlike prudence, a
sense of the big picture*.* It is the capacity to survey reality from the
vantage point of God*, appreciating the grandest perspective. *Without
wisdom, even the most prudent judgment* *will be erroneous, short-sighted,
and inadequate.*


*The combination, therefore, of prudence and wisdom is especially powerful.
Someone who is both wise and prudent will have both a sense of the big
picture and a feel for the particular situation. *
