MESSAGE FROM FR TOM
10/13 - 28th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Dear Parish Family,
The incident of Cleansing of the Lepers in St. Luke’s Gospel is a familiar one. Undoubtedly it is often interpreted as an example of Gratitude. Based on this incident St. Ignatius developed a special part of his famous Spiritual Exercise. You can read a ‘teaser’ of it on Pg. 6 of this Bulletin. Besides the lesson of Gratitude, the Lukan narrative seems to allude to something deeper for our reflection. Luke is careful to note that this episode occurs “along the borders of Samaria and Galilee” (apart from Jericho, this is the only location he mentions during the whole nine-chapter journey from Galilee to Jerusalem). When Jesus instructs the ten lepers to “show (themselves) to the priests,” two things are implied. First, he is telling them to do what Leviticus instructs those who recover from diseases that ostracized them from society, to get certified by the Temple personnel as cured, so that they might resume normal life in the community. Second, the lone Samaritan (whom we learn later is among the ten) has a dilemma: to which temple should he report? Jesus surely means the Jerusalem Temple, but as a Samaritan he would naturally will want to go to Mount Gerizim as the true place to worship God, and his priests are, of course, the Samaritan priests at Gerizim.
