Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
THE LORD OF LIFE
You changed my mourning into dancing;
O Lord, my God,
forever will I give you thanks.
— Psalm 30:13
At this bountiful time of year, our Sunday readings
teem with life and abundance. Both the first reading, from
the book of Wisdom, and the Gospel passage from Mark
assure us that God did not make death or even will us to
be ill. Illness and death entered the world through the
presence of evil, the Wisdom author tells us. Mark’s stories of Jesus healing a hemorrhaging woman and resuscitating a dead little girl make it clear that Jesus is from
God. As the Son of God he does not will that anyone suffer illness or death. In the face of such power, the second
reading, from Paul’s Second Letter to the Corinthians,
provides a stark contrast. Jesus, who could raise the dead
to new life, “though he was rich, for your sake he became poor” (2 Corinthians 8:9). Our gift of new life from
Christ demands our response in charity.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
The premier poet of the English language, Geoffrey
Chaucer, introduced one of his most beloved characters,
the “Wife of Bath,” by this telling remark: “Husbands at
church door she had five.” Four times widowed, she was
setting off on a pilgrimage, notably without number five.
The church door is a curious detail, pointing to the fourteenth-century wedding custom of marrying on the porch
of the parish church. The goal was to give maximum publicity to the consent of the groom and bride, and so consent was moved from the bride’s home to a public venue.
The priest would stand in the doorway and begin by
sprinkling the couple with holy water. He needed to make
sure they weren’t too closely related and give them some
instruction. He would direct the groom to pay the bride’s
family a dowry, and then announce the monetary amounts
to the interested passersby. Only then would the guests
enter the church for the wedding Mass, during which the
bride and groom would hold lighted candles. The gradual
move from home to church and the shift from the bride’s
father to the priest’s authority helped to protect the freedom of brides who weren’t quite as confident as the Wife
of Bath. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
Decimotercero Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario
EL SEÑOR DE LA VIDA
Convertiste mi duelo en alegría
te alabaré por eso eternamente.
— Salmo 30 (29):13
En este tiempo tan fecundo del año nuestras lecturas dominicales rebosan con vida y abundancia. Tanto la
primera lectura, del libro de la Sabiduría, como la tercera
del Evangelio de san Marcos nos aseguran que Dios no
creó la muerte, ni quiere que suframos de ninguna enfermedad. Fue por la envidia del diablo que la muerte entró
al mundo, según nos dice el Sabio. Y lo que san Marcos
nos cuenta sobre la curación de la hemorroisa y cómo
revivió la hija de Jairo nos muestran claramente que Jesús
viene de Dios. Como Hijo de Dios, Jesús no quiere que
nadie sufra enfermedad ni muerte. Pero en el contexto de
tanto poder, la segunda lectura, de la segunda carta de san
Pablo a los corintios, nos presenta un fuerte contraste.
Jesús, que puede levantar a los muertos a una nueva vida,
“siendo rico se hizo pobre por ustedes” (2 Corintios 8:9).
Así pues, la nueva vida que recibimos como regalo de
Cristo exige una respuesta: nuestra caridad.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
Muchos hispanos que vivimos en Estados Unidos
somos personas bilingües. Podemos leer la Palabra de
Dios en inglés o español. Por ejemplo, el texto de Juan
21:15-19, en el que Jesús le pregunta a Pedro si lo ama. El
texto en inglés nos dice que Jesús le pregunta tres veces:
Peter, do you love me? Pedro le responde: Lord, you
know that I love you, mientras que en español le dice:
“Señor, tú sabes que te quiero”.
La diferencia es casi imperceptible, pero importante. El texto original fue escrito en griego y usaba dos palabras que significan amor, ágape (amor que se sacrifica) y
fileo (amor fraterno). En inglés, Jesús y Pedro usan la misma palabra, love, mientras en español Jesús dos veces pregunta por “amor”, y Pedro responde con “querer”. La tercera vez, Jesús se acopla a Pedro y sólo pregunta en torno
al “querer”, reconociendo que en ese momento, Pedro no
puede darle más que eso. Jesús le asegura que algún día
Pedro sería capaz del amor ágape entregando su vida por
él. Jesús se acopla a nosotros pidiendo lo que le podemos
dar y ayudándonos a crecer hasta que podamos darle toda
nuestra vida.
