The dishonest steward is guilty of having no justice,
and, therefore, does not have judicial approval from God the judge.
Fr. Bob’s Briefs
In the Gospel this Sunday, we hear Jesus tell us a very strange parable, the Parable of the
Dishonest Steward. In this parable, from Luke 16:1-13, Jesus tells us a story of a steward who
cheats his master. At the end of the parable, it seems as if the Lord is praising the man for his
bad actions. “And the master commended that dishonest steward.” How can the Lord praise
the steward for cheating? The Lord Jesus does not praise the steward for his cheating and
dishonesty. The master in the parable praises the steward for his dishonest behavior, but the
Lord Jesus does not.
When we read the Gospel of Luke, we hear Jesus describe the steward as dishonest. In
the original Greek language, St. Luke the Evangelist uses the word adikos. The word adikos is
a combination of two root parts. The “a” means “no” in Greek, and when it precedes a word
in the beginning, as a prefix, it makes the word into a negative. The word dike means “justice.” Thus, the word
adikos can be translated as “no justice.” As an adjective, adikos means “unjust or unrighteous.” So, the steward
in the parable has no justice. What does this mean? Let us delve further with the Greek word dikos. Dikos
comes from the Greek word dike that means judicial verdict. This judicial verdict is a judgment (just finding)
that regards someone as guilty or innocent. Thus, in
Greek, the word dike meant “right or judicial
approval.”
The steward in today’s Gospel is not really
being commended by Jesus for being dishonest.
Rather, Jesus is making a verdict of judgment on
this man’s character and behavior. This steward
cheated his master. He lied and stole. Jesus is
making a just finding based on the evidence of his
actions and declaring that this man is not right in
acting this way. The dishonest steward is guilty of
having no justice, and, therefore, does not have
judicial approval from God the judge. Writing on
the Parable of the Unjust Steward, the Patristic
Father Origen teaches, “it is said also in Genesis that
the serpent was the wisest animal, wherein he makes
wisdom not a virtue, but evil-minded cunning. And
it is in this same sense that the steward that had done
wisely, that is, cunningly and evilly.” We are very
skilled in bad habits and vices, but we don’t tend to
practice (or want to practice) good habits and virtues
in life. Using an opposite example to prove His
point, Jesus teaches us in this parable that just as we
have disposition and energy to perform bad works
and vices, so too, we should have just as much and
the same disposition and energy to prompt us to do
good works of love and grace.
In the painting, we see the dishonest steward
telling his debtor to change the amount that is owed
to the master in the promissory note, book. Slightly
above the debtor’s shoulder, in the upper left side of
the painting, we see a small green parrot sitting on a
perch, looking down at the two people. Many times, this painting is shown with the parrot cut out of the picture,
with only a close up on the two people at the counting table. Why did the artist place this parrot in the scene?
The parrot serves as an important symbol and tool of teaching. First, parrots are social birds; they like in large
groups. Second, parrots can learn to speak, imitate human words and phrases. Thus, the parrot in this painting is
a symbol used by the artist to teach us an important lesson in life that stems from the teaching of Jesus in this
week’s Gospel. If we associate with bad people, make friends with people of vice, then we will learn and imitate
that same vice and bad behavior in our own lives. Jesus wants us to make friends with and imitate the children of
the light, not darkness.
Next weekend, we will have mission speakers speak at the masses for the annual Mission Appeal. This
year, the Archdiocese has assigned to our parish the Roman Catholic Prelature of Sicuani, in the province of
Cusco, Peru. As I was reading on the background of this Prelature, I was reminded that the former auxiliary
bishop of Chicago, Bishop Nevin Hayes, O. Carm., was bishop there in Peru from 1959-1970, before coming
back home to Chicago. Please pray for peace in the world. May our Blessed Mother Mary, Undoer of Knots,
help us with her maternal care and St. Joseph pray for us. Vivat Jesus! Live Jesus!
Informes Padre Bob
En el Evangelio de este domingo, escuchamos a Jesús decirnos una parábola muy extraña, la parábola del administrador deshonesto. En esta parábola, de Lucas 16: 1-13, Jesús nos cuenta la historia de un administrador que
engaña a su amo. Al final de la parábola, parece como si el Señor está alabando al hombre por sus malas acciones. "Y el amo alabó a ese mal administrador." ¿Cómo puede el Señor alabar al administrador por hacer trampa? El Señor Jesús no alaba al administrador por su engaño y deshonestidad. El amo de la parábola elogia al
administrador por su comportamiento deshonesto, pero el Señor Jesús no lo hace.
Cuando leemos el Evangelio de Lucas, escuchamos a Jesús describir al mayordomo como deshonesto. En el
idioma original griego, San Lucas Evangelista usa la palabra adikos. La palabra adikos es una combinación de
dos partes de la raíz. La "a" significa "no" en griego, y cuando precede una palabra en un principio, como un
prefijo, se hace la palabra un negativo. La palabra dikos significa "justicia". Por lo tanto, la palabra adikos se
puede traducir como "no justicia". Como adjetivo, adikos significa "injusto." Por lo tanto, el administrador de
la parábola no es justo. ¿Qué significa esto? Vamos a profundizar aún más con dikos, la palabra griega. Dikos viene de la palabra
griega que significa veredicto judicial. Este veredicto judicial es un juicio (justa conclusión) que se refiere a alguien culpable o
inocente. Por lo tanto, en griego, la palabra dikos significaba "derecho o aprobación judicial.”
El administrador del Evangelio de hoy realmente no está siendo elogiado por Jesús por ser deshonesto. Más bien, Jesús está haciendo un veredicto del juicio sobre el carácter y el
comportamiento de este hombre. Este administrador
engañó a su amo. El mintió y robó. Jesús está haciendo una justa conclusión basado en la evidencia de sus
acciones y declarando que este hombre no hizo bien
en actuar de esta manera. El administrador injusto es
culpable de no serlo y por lo tanto, no tiene la aprobación judicial de Dios, el juez. Al escribir sobre la parábola del administrador injusto, los Origenes Patristicos nos enseña, "también se dice en el Génesis que la
serpiente era el animal más inteligente, y que hace de
la sabiduría no una virtud, sino astucia malintencionada. Y es en este mismo sentido como el administrador
había actuado discretamente, es decir, con astucia y
malicia. "Somos muy hábiles en los malos hábitos y
vicios, pero no practicamos (o queremos practicar)
buenos hábitos y virtudes en la vida. Usando un ejemplo contrario para probar su punto, Jesús nos enseña
en esta parábola que así como existe la disposición y
energía para realizar las obras malas y vicios, así también, debemos de tener la misma disposición y energía
para incitarnos a hacer buenas obras de amor y gracia.
En la pintura, vemos al administrador injusto aconseja a los deudores a cambiar la cantidad que le debe a
su amo en el pagaré, el documento. Ligeramente por
encima del hombro del deudor, en el lado superior
izquierdo de la pintura, vemos un pequeño loro verde
sentado en una percha, mirando hacia abajo a las dos
personas. Muchas veces, esta pintura se muestra con el
loro cortado fuera de la foto, con sólo un primer plano
de las dos personas en la mesa de escrutinio. ¿Por qué
el artista coloca este loro en la escena? El loro sirve
como un símbolo y una herramienta de enseñanza
importante.
En primer lugar, loros son aves sociales; les gusta vivir en grupos grandes. En segundo lugar, loros pueden
aprender a hablar, imitar palabras y frases humanas.
Por lo tanto, el loro en esta pintura es un símbolo utilizado por el artista para enseñarnos una lección importante en la vida que se
deriva de las enseñanzas de Jesús en el Evangelio de esta semana. Si nos juntamos s con gente mala, hacemos amistad con gente
viciosa, enseguida vamos a aprender e imitar ese mismo vicio y el mal comportamiento en nuestras propias vidas. Jesús quiere que
hagamos amistad e imitar a los hijos de la luz, no de la oscuridad.
El próximo fin de semana tendremos misioneros hablando en las misas, sobre la Campaña Anual para las Misiones. Este año, la
Arquidiócesis ha asignado a nuestra parroquia la Católica Romana Prelatura de Sicuani, en la provincia de Cusco, Perú. Cuando
estaba leyendo sobre el fondo de esta Prelatura, recordé que el ex obispo auxiliar de Chicago, Obispo Nevin Hayes, O. Carm., fué
obispo en Perú desde 1959-1970, antes de volver a casa en Chicago.
Oremos por la paz en el mundo. Que nuestra Santa Madre María, Desatadora de nudos, nos ayude con su maternal amor y San
José ruegue por nosotros.
Vivat Jesus! Viva Jesus!
Z biurka Ks. Proboszcza
W dzisiejszym czytaniu Jezus dzieli się ze słuchaczami przypowieścią z Ewangelii według
św. Łukasza 16:1-13. Jest to nieco dziwna opowieść o Nieuczciwym Rządcy, który oszukuje
swojego pana. „Dziwna” dlatego, że pod koniec Chrystus wydaje się chwalić nieuczciwego
rządcę: „Pan pochwalił nieuczciwego rządcę, że roztropnie postąpił”. Jak Mesjasz może
pochwalać złe zachowanie? To pan z przypowieści pochwala nieuczciwego rządcę, a nie
Jezus Chrystus.
W dzisiejszej przypowieści, Jezus określa rządcę mianem „nieuczciwego”. W
oryginalnym greckim tekście, święty Łukasz Ewangelista posługuje się tu słowem: „adikos”.
Składa się ono z dwóch części. „A” w języku greckim oznacza „nie”, zaś jako przedimek,
oznacza przeciwieństwo jakiegoś słowa. Z kolei współcześnie „dike” znaczy: „sprawiedliwość”. „Adikos”
znaczy zatem: „brak sprawiedliwości”. W kontekście naszej przypowieści, owe słowo jest przymiotnikiem,
oznaczającym: „nieprawy”. Wiemy już więc, jakim człowiekiem jest rządca. Przyjrzyjmy się jeszcze bliżej
greckiemu „dikos”. Jego źródłem jest greckie „dike”, czyli „wyrok sądowy”. Dzięki takiemu wyrokowi
wiadomo, czy dana osoba jest winna czy niewinna.
Stąd, dike w języku greckim oznacza dosłownie
„sądowne potwierdzenie lub aprobatę”.
Zgodnie z powyższym, rządca tak naprawdę
nie jest chwalony za swoją nieuczciwość – oszukał
przecież własnego pana, kłamiąc i kradnąc. Jezus
wydaje wobec niego sprawiedliwy osąd,
stwierdzając, iż w oczach Boga (Najwyższego
Sędziego), rządca jest nieprawy i nie otrzymał od
Niego aprobaty. W swoim komentarzu do
przypowieści o Nieuczciwym Rządcy, Ojciec
Kościoła Orygenes pisze, że według Księgi
Rodzaju, wąż był najmądrzejszym zwierzęciem w
Raju. Przemienił jednak cnotę mądrości w złą
chytrość. Podobnie, czyli chytrze, postąpił rządca.
Złe nawyki przychodzą nam łatwo. Nie chcemy
wszakże rozwijać się w cnotliwości. Poprzez tę
przypowieść Jezus uczy nas, iż podobnie jak mamy
predyspozycje i energię, aby czynić zło, z taką
samą energią i zaangażowaniem powinniśmy
czynić dobro.
Na załączonym obrazie widzimy
nieuczciwego rządcę mówiącego dłużnikowi, aby
zmienił widniejącą na wekslu sumę pieniędzy, jaką
jest winny panu. Za dłużnikiem, w lewym górnym
rogu obrazu, widzimy zieloną papugę siedzącą na
grzędzie i patrzącą na rozmówców. Ten obraz
często pokazywany jest bez papugi, cała uwaga
skupia się wtedy na postaciach przy stole. Jaką rolę pełni w tej scenie papuga? Jest ona ważnym symbolem
oraz narzędziem nauczania. Po pierwsze, papugi są towarzyskimi ptakami i lubią przebywać w dużych
grupach. Po drugie: papugi łatwo uczą się mówić, naśladować usłyszane słowa i wyrażenia. Malarz poprzez
papugę pragnie nam przekazać ważną życiową lekcję, mającą swe źródło w dzisiejszej Ewangelii. Przyjaźniąc
się ze złymi ludźmi, będziemy powielać ich zachowanie w naszym własnym życiu. Syn Boży pragnie, abyśmy
naśladowali dzieci światła, a nie ciemności.
W przyszły weekend podczas wszystkich nabożeństw obecni będą ludzie mówiący o corocznym Apelu
Misyjnym. W tym roku, Archidiecezja Chicago przypisała nam prałaturę w peruwiańskim mieście Sicuani.
Czytając na temat tej parafii, przypomniała mi się postać byłego biskupa pomocniczego Chicago. Karmelita, o.
Nevin Heyes, w latach 1959-1970, pełnił posługę kapłańską właśnie w Sicuani w Peru. Módlmy się o pokój na
świecie. Święta Maryjo Rozwiązująca Węzły, miej nas zawsze w Swej opiece.
Święty Józefie, módl się za nami. Vivat Iesus! Chwała Jezusowi!

GIVE HIM ETERNAL REST
ROBERT CONRADI
Eternal rest, grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May the souls of the
faithful through the mercy of God rest in peace!
St. Joseph School:
A Community of
Faith,
Knowledge and
Service.

This Sunday at the 9:30 a.m. Mass we celebrate Catechetical
Sunday. This is the Sunday we recognize all of our
catechists who work with the children in our school and
Religious Education programs. Please pray for them that
they may impart our faith to our children and that our
children are receptive to their message.
This Sunday we begin our Family Mass. The St. Joseph
Choristers begin this week, joined by our seventh graders.
Our classes will continue to read at Mass on the second
Sunday of each month. Our choristers will normally sing at
the second and fourth Sundays of the month.
Each Wednesday, our school attends the 8:30 a.m. Mass as a
whole. If you are free, I would invite you to attend Mass
with us.
Our entrance hymn this week was All Are Welcome. Led by
our fifth graders, our children sang beautifully filling the
Church with their young voices.
The chorus of the song is – All Are Welcome In This Place.
Reflecting on the hymn I thought about how well the
message pertains to St. Joseph School. St. Joseph is a family
and we as a faculty, staff, and school community welcome
everyone.
A new addition to our school is the Water Station, put in to
replace one of the drinking fountains. The Water Station
includes a place to fill water bottles. We wish to thank Mr.
Yanez, Mr. Perez and Diego Yanez for giving up part of
their Sunday to install the station, and the St. Joseph Parent
Club for making the purchase for our school. It is working
very well.
So far we have saved 380 plastic bottles from the
environment.
Finally, as mentioned last week we continue to accept
enrollment for the 2016 – 2017 school year. Remember,
tuition assistance is available through our Pastor’s
Scholarship and Caritas Program. There is still some
$15,000.00 available to us from Caritas Scholarship Fund. If
interested please contact the school office.
Thank you for your continued support. Have a great week.
God Bless.
