恭讀聖路加福音 20:27-38
那時,否認復活的撒杜塞人當中,有幾個來問耶穌說:「師傅,梅瑟曾定下規條:『如果哥哥死了,沒有兒女,他的弟弟該娶嫂為妻,替兄立嗣。』假如有兄弟七人,大哥娶了妻,沒有兒女就死了。二弟,三弟直至七弟,相繼娶她為妻,都沒有留下兒女就死了。後來那婦人也死了。那麼,在復活的時候,這婦人是誰的妻子呢?因為七兄弟都娶過她。」耶穌對他們說:「今世的人男婚女嫁,但是,那些有資格死而復活,獲得永生的人,不娶也不嫁,他們也不能再死,因為他們像天使一樣。他們既然復活了,也就是天主的兒女。至於死人復活的事,梅瑟在荊棘篇已說明了:他稱上主是亞巴郎的天主,依撒格的天主和雅各伯的天主。天主不是死人的天主,而是活人的天主:所有人在天主眼中都是活的。」

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke 20:27-38
27 There came to him some Sadducees, those who say that there is no resurrection, 28 and they asked him a question, saying, “Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies, having a wife but no children, the man must take the wife and raise up children for his brother. 29 Now there were seven brothers; the first took a wife, and died without children; 30 and the second 31 and the third took her, and likewise all seven left no children and died. 32 Afterward the woman also died. 33 In the resurrection, therefore, whose wife will the woman be? For the seven had her as wife.” 34 And Jesus said to them, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage; 35 but those who are accounted worthy to attain to that age and to the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage, 36 for they cannot die any more, because they are equal to angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection. 37 But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the passage about the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. 38 Now he is not God of the dead, but of the living; for all live to him.”

家的附近正在興建不少新房子,所以在路旁放置了很多建築材料。主日工地沒有開工,當我們走過那處,竟然看見有位仁兄將車子泊在路旁﹐然後用他帶來的桶裝滿了沙粒就走。他不是工人吧!? 拿了不是自己的東西,便是偷竊啊﹗
在聖堂裡搞活動,時常會遇到一些自我膨脹的人,總之-一切都得照他的旨意而行,就算是參加學習營,截止了也得要出席,還要帶同朋友一同參加;不管你有什麼的規則,他有他的法則,還擺出一副理所當然的模樣,最重要的是他覺得自己是重要人物。試問「尊重」何在﹖
一天,有輛公車駛到身旁,立時被車身的廣告吸引著—「摩登的家庭」: 兩位男士抱著一個嬰兒的電視節目,我即時想:不應該是一男一女抱著嬰兒而成為一個家嗎?
現今人的自私,個人主義和錯謬的思想,已經到了無可挽救的地步。正如神父所說:「在世不尊重生命的,將來便沒有生命。」在世不懂得尊重自己,不懂得尊重別人,更不懂得尊重生命,在死時如何面對付予生命的天主。但,因主耶穌的慈悲,人認為不可能的,在祂內成為可能,求祢派遣聖神使我等罪人醒悟且走向皈依之路﹗主,我們信賴祢﹗
