[Grem] Gospel meditation

[Emoke Greschik]

 Friends, today’s Gospel gives us* the Our Father. It asks that God’s will
be done “on earth as it is in heaven,*”* but biblical cosmology sees these
two realms as interpenetrating fields of force. Heaven, the arena of God
and the angels, touches upon and calls out to earth, the arena of humans,
animals, plants, and planets.*
*Salvation, therefore, is a matter of the meeting of heaven and earth*, *so
that God might reign as thoroughly here below as he does on high. Jesus’
great prayer, which is constantly on the lips of Christians, is
distinctively Jewish in inspiration*: *“Thy kingdom come, thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.”*
*This is decidedly not a prayer *that we might escape from the earth, but
rather* that earth and heaven might come together. The Lord’s Prayer raises
to a new level what the prophet Isaiah anticipated: “The earth shall be
filled with knowledge of the Lord, as water covers the sea.”*
*The first Christians saw the Resurrection of Jesus as the commencement of
the process by which earth and heaven were being reconciled*.* They
appreciated the risen Christ as the one who would bring the justice of
heaven to this world.*

*Imádkozzál érettünk, Istennek szent Anyja!  Hogy méltók lehessünk Krisztus
ígéreteire!  Könyörögjünk! Kérünk téged, Úristen, öntsd lelkünkbe szent
kegyelmedet, hogy akik az angyali üzenet által szent Fiadnak, Jézus
Krisztusnak megtestesülését megismertük, az ő kínszenvedése és keresztje
által a föltámadás dicsőségébe vitessünk! Krisztus, a mi Urunk által. Ámen.*
