Father Mike Schmitz: 亚哈王觊觎拿伯的葡萄园,但拿伯因祖先产业不可出卖而拒绝。亚哈因此闷闷不乐,耶洗别便设计陷害拿伯,最终导致他被处死。以利亚奉神之命宣告对亚哈和耶洗别的审判。亚哈虽有悔改,但恶果终将降临。我认为这个故事揭示了权力、贪婪和不公,以及个人在面对强权时的无力。同时也提醒我们,即使是国王,也无法凌驾于道德和正义之上。耶洗别的行为更是邪恶的化身,她利用权力操纵舆论,陷害无辜,最终也难逃神的审判。我们应该从中吸取教训,坚守正义,抵制邪恶,维护社会的公平和正义。

Shownotes Transcript

Today we read about Elijah's discouragement after fleeing from Jezebel, and how God tells him to "arise and eat" to strengthen him for the journey ahead. Fr. Mike points out how God calls us to draw strength for the journey as well, even at the end of our earthly lives. The readings are 1 Kings 19-20, 2 Chronicles 20, and Song of Solomon 6.
