Re"lectionofToday’sGospel~John20:1-9
There is so much to consider in this Gospel passage;
even the first few words give us a whole world of things
to consider. “On the first day of the week,” we are told,
“Mary of Magdala came to the tomb early in the
morning.” As already noted, the first day of that week
in that year was the feast of First Fruits. Again, as just
noted, St. Paul calls Jesus the first fruits of those who are
to rise from the dead. That means that we are part of
the full harvest, of which Jesus is the first fruits.
According to the Jewish practice, that full harvest of
which the feast of First Fruits was but a promise came
on the harvest feast of Pentecost, fifty days after. As
we know from Acts 3, on Pentecost the Holy Spirit fell
on the apostles and disciples, bringing a great harvest
of souls (3000, in fact). The “first day” is also redolent
with meaning on other levels. Jesus had rested in the
tomb on the old Sabbath of Israel. Just as the Creator
God had rested after his week’s work of making the
world on the seventh day, Jesus, who has re-created
the world by his Passion Week, rested in the sleep of
death on that Sabbath. Now, he rises to new life on a
new first day, as a sign of the first day of the first
creation, the day when God had made light, and of
the new creation he has worked in his Paschal Mystery.
And so, that Mary of Magdala arrives in the morning,
just as the light is dawning on this new creation, is a
sign of the new light and life that this Easter brings.
Resolution:Sometimes we say that we believe
Jesus rose from the dead without really thinking about
what we are saying. Take time to prayerfully consider
what it means to you in your daily life that Jesus has
truly conquered death and is alive.

Last Easter, Pope Francis, who had only
been Pope for some 12 days, smiled and
looked at his people, his newly designated flock, and at
the Easter Vigil he said, “Let the risen Jesus enter your life;
welcome Him as a friend, with trust. Jesus is life! If up until

He will receive you with open arms. If you have been
indifferent, take a risk; you won’t be disappointed.
If following Him seems difficult, don’t be afraid. Trust Him!
Be confident that He is close to you; He is with you; He
will give you the peace you are looking for and the
strength to live as He would have you do.
”His Holiness admittedly did not use the word
“stewardship,” but what he said and what he was talking
about exuded stewardship. On this radiant Easter
Sunday, filled with life, filled with beauty, and filled with
hope, we need to embrace everything that Pope

Re"lexióndelEvangeliodeHoy~
Hay tantas cosas que considerar en este pasaje del
Evangelio; incluso las primeras palabras nos dan todo
un mundo de cosas a considerar. "En el primer día de
la semana", se nos dice, "María Magdalena fue al
sepulcro muy de mañana." Como ya se ha señalado,
el primer día de la semana en ese año era la fiesta de
las Primicias. De nuevo, como se acaba de señalar,
St. Paul llama a Jesús el primer fruto de aquellos que
han de resucitar de entre los muertos. Eso significa que
somos parte de la cosecha total, de la cual Jesús es la
primicia. De acuerdo con la práctica judía, que la
cosecha completa de la que la fiesta de los primeros
frutos era más que una promesa se hizo en la fiesta de
la cosecha de Pentecostés, cincuenta días después.
Sabemos por los Hechos 3, el día de
Pentecostés el Espíritu Santo descendió sobre los
apóstoles y discípulos, trayendo una gran cosecha de
almas (3000, de hecho). El "primer día" también está
impregnada de significado en otros niveles.
Jesús había descansado en la tumba en el antiguo día
de Reposo de Israel. Así como el Dios Creador había
descansado después de la obra de su semana de
hacer el mundo en el séptimo día, Jesús, que ha vuelto
a crear el mundo con su Semana de Pasión, descansó
en el sueño de la muerte de aquel sábado. Ahora, se
eleva a una nueva vida en un nuevo primer día, como
un signo de la primera jornada de la primera
creación, el día en que Dios había hecho la luz,
y de la nueva creación, ha trabajado en su misterio
pascual. Y es así, que María de Magdala llega
en la mañana, así como la luz amanece en esta
nueva creación, es un signo de la nueva luz y l
a vida que esta Pascua trae.
