HOSSANA TO THE SON OF DAVID

PALM SUNDAY - Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest! 

Gospel Matthew 21:1-11 Blessings on him who comes in the name of the Lord!

When they drew near to Jerusalem and came to Bethphage, to the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples, saying to them, ‘Go into the village facing you, and immediately you will find an ass tied, and a colt with her: untie them and bring them to me. If anyone says anything to you, you shall say, “The Lord has need of them,” and he will send them immediately.’

This took place to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet, saying, ‘Tell the daughter of Sion, Behold, your king is coming to you, humble, and mounted on an ass, and on a colt, the foal of an ass.’

The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them; they brought the ass and the colt, and put their garments on them, and he sat thereon. Most of the crowd spread their garments on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. And the crowds that went before him and that followed him shouted, ‘Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!’

And when he entered Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, saying, ‘Who is this?’And the crowds said,‘This is the prophet Jesus from Nazareth of Galilee.’

Évangile Matthieu 21:1-11 "Béni soit celui qui vient au nom du Seigneur"

Évangile deJésus Christ selon saint Matthieu Jésus et ses disciples, approchant de Jérusalem, arrivèrent en vue de Bethphagé, sur les pentes du mont des Oliviers. Alors Jésus envoya deux disciples en leur disant : « Allez au village qui est en face de vous ; vous trouverez aussitôt une ânesse attaché et son petit avec elle. Détachez-les et amenez-les moi.  Et si l’on vous dit quelque chose, vous répondrez  ‘Le Seigneur en a besoin’. Et aussitôt on les laissera partir. »

Cela est arrivé pour que soit accomplie la parole prononcée par le prophète  Dites à la fille de Sion : Voici ton roi qui vient vers toi, plein de douceur, monté sur une ânesse et un petit âne,
le petit d’une bête de somme.  

Les disciples partirent et firent ce que Jésus leur avait ordonné. Ils amenèrent l’ânesse et son petit, disposèrent sur eux leurs manteaux, et Jésus s’assit dessus. Dans la foule, la plupart étendirent leurs manteaux sur le chemin ; d’autres coupaient des branches aux arbres et en jonchaient la route. Les foules qui marchaient devant Jésus et celles qui suivaient criaient : « Hosanna au fils de David ! Béni soit celui qui vient au nom du Seigneur ! Hosanna au plus haut des cieux ! » 

Comme Jésus entrait à Jérusalem, toute la ville fut en proie à l’agitation, et disait : « Qui est cet homme ? » Et les foules répondaient : « C’est le prophète Jésus, de Nazareth en Galilée. »

TRUST GOD, TRUST IN ME

Fifth Sunday of Easter  'I am going now to prepare a place for you' First Reading  Acts 6:1-7  They elected seven men full of the Holy Spirit About this time, when the number of disciples was increasing, the Hellenists made a complaint against the Hebrews: in the daily distribution their own widows were being overlooked. So the Twelve called a full meeting of the disciples and addressed them, ‘It would not be right for us to neglect the word of God so as to give out food; you, brothers, must select from among yourselves seven men of good reputation, filled with the Spirit and with wisdom; we will hand over this duty to them, and continue to devote ourselves to prayer and to the service of the word.’ The whole assembly approved of this proposal and elected Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, together with Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolaus of Antioch, a convert to Judaism. They presented these to the apostles, who prayed and laid th...

THE BREAD FROM HEAVEN

Tuesday week 3 of Eastertide -   ‘I can see heaven thrown open’ First Reading 7:51-8,1  'Lord Jesus, receive my spirit' Stephen said to the people, the elders and the scribes: ‘You stubborn people, with your pagan hearts and pagan ears. You are always resisting the Holy Spirit, just as your ancestors used to do. Can you name a single prophet your ancestors never persecuted? In the past they killed those who foretold the coming of the Just One, and now you have become his betrayers, his murderers. You who had the Law brought to you by angels are the very ones who have not kept it.’ They were infuriated when they heard this, and ground their teeth at him. But Stephen, filled with the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at God’s right hand. ‘I can see heaven thrown open’ he said ‘and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.’ At this all the members of the council shouted out and stopped their ears with their hands; then they ...

WHO ARE YOU?

I AM NOT THE CHRIST   First Reading 1John 2:22-28 The anointing he gave you teaches you everything Beloved: Who is the liar? Whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Whoever denies the Father and the Son, this is the antichrist. Anyone who denies the Son does not have the Father, but whoever confesses the Son has the Father as well. Let what you heard from the beginning remain in you. If what you heard from the beginning remains in you, then you will remain in the Son and in the Father. And this is the promise that he made us: eternal life. I write you these things about those who would deceive you. As for you, the anointing that you received from him remains in you, so that you do not need anyone to teach you. But his anointing teaches you about everything and is true and not false; just as it taught you, remain in him. And now, children, remain in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not be put to shame by him at his coming. Responsorial Psalm: ...
