Father Mark Mary: 我认为耶稣在此事件中展现了天国的真谛。当那些控告者带着一个犯了通奸罪的女人来找耶稣时,他们真正的目的是为了试探和陷害他,而不是真正关心律法或这个女人本身。耶稣并没有直接回答他们的问题,而是弯下腰在地上写字,这给那些控告者一个反思自己罪过的机会。然后,耶稣站起来说:‘你们中间谁是没有罪的,谁就可以先拿石头打她。’这句话像一面镜子一样,照出了他们内心的污秽,使他们开始意识到自己的罪。最终,他们都默默地离开了。耶稣的沉默、冷静和智慧,使他们有机会悔改,并改变了自己的行为。接着,耶稣转向那个女人,他没有轻描淡写她的罪,而是以充满慈悲的目光看着她,对她说:‘我不定你的罪,去吧!从今以后不要再犯罪了。’耶稣的这句话充满了怜悯和宽恕,他不仅赦免了她的罪,还给了她重新开始的机会。耶稣的爱是无条件的,他愿意接纳那些被社会抛弃的人,并引导他们走向光明。他通过自己的行动,向世人宣告了天国的福音,那就是爱、怜悯和宽恕。 Father Mark Mary: 耶稣对这个女人的态度,也向我们展示了如何对待那些犯错的人。我们不应该像那些控告者一样,站在道德的制高点上指责和审判他们,而是应该以怜悯和理解的心去帮助他们。每个人都会犯错,重要的是我们要从错误中吸取教训,并努力改正。耶稣的榜样告诉我们,真正的爱是包容和接纳,是给予他人改过自新的机会。我们应该学习耶稣的爱,用爱去感化他人,用爱去改变世界。通过这个事件,我们可以更深刻地理解耶稣的教诲,那就是爱人如己,宽恕他人,并努力追求圣洁的生活。耶稣的爱是永恒的,他永远不会抛弃我们,只要我们愿意悔改,他就会接纳我们,并带领我们走向永生。

Shownotes Transcript

In Lorenzo Lotto’s painting, The Adulterous Woman, we are presented with an unforgettable moment from the Gospels. A group of accusers try to trap Jesus by asking for his judgement of a woman caught in sin. However, Fr. Mark-Mary explains, Jesus’ incredible response to the accusers and the woman is a response to all of us. Today’s focus is the mystery of the Proclamation of the Gospel and Call to Conversion and we will be praying one decade of the Rosary.
