Do not allow them to go to the
restroom or out to the car alone. Children need to be supervised by a
parent or adult at all times while attending any church-related function.
The Dedication of
the Lateran Basilica
November 9, 2014
The LORD of hosts is with us;
our stronghold is the God of Jacob
— Psalm 46:8
OVERVIEW OF THE GOSPEL:
*In today’s Gospel, which takes place soon after Jesus’
first public miracle in Cana (John 2:1-11), Jesus is in Jerusalem with his disciples for the Passover (verse13).
* In the outer court of the Temple, called the Court of the
Gentiles, Jesus observes the area is full of moneychangers and sellers of sacrificial animals. The moneychangers were necessary because the Temple tax
(Exodus 30:11-17) could not be paid or animals be
bought with Roman coins containing pagan images.
*Jesus, however, is grieved by the circus atmosphere surrounding these activities marked by noisy commotion,
animals (and their manure), dishonest trading, and general lack of reverence for God’s house which prevented
Gentiles from using the area for what it was intended—a
place to come to know the God of Israel.
*Jesus takes matters into his own hands and in the process is challenged by the Temple authorities in the first of
many confrontations to come
TODAY’S READINGS
First Reading — I saw water flowing out of the temple;
wherever the river flows, every living creature shall live
(Ezekiel 47:1-2, 8-9, 12).
Psalm — The waters of the river gladden the city of
God, the holy dwelling of the Most High (Psalm 46).
Second Reading — Do you not know that you are the
temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
(1 Corinthians 3:9c-11, 16-17).
Gospel — Destroy this temple and in three days I will
raise it up (John 2:13-22).
The English translation of the Psalm Responses from Lectionary for Mass © 1969, 1981, 1997,
International Commission on English in the Liturgy Corporation. All rights reserved.
Questions:
*In the first reading, what is the temple symbolic for?
And in light of that interpretation, what is the water coming from the temple symbolic for? What are the qualities
of the water, and what are its effects? How is the Psalm
related to the first reading?
*Looking at the second reading, what (or who) is the
foundation of your life? What are you building on that
foundation? At the end of your life, will your efforts prove
durable? In what condition (physically, intellectually, and
spiritually) is your “temple of the Holy Spirit”?
*Why does Jesus expel the money-changers and
“cleanse” the Temple (Malachi 3:1ff; Matthew 21:12-13;
Mark 11:15-17; Luke 19:45-46)? Are the moneychangers and sellers wrong for selling—or wrong for the
manner and location of their activity? As one of the sellers, how would you feel about Jesus’ actions? As one of
the disciples how would you feel? What did they eventually learn (verse 21)?
*Early Church writers saw Jesus’ actions as driving out
a lack of discipline and a herd of earthly attachments.
What attachments do you have that Jesus might want to
drive out of your heart?
Catechism of the Catholic Church: §§ 583--586
Papa Franciscus says…
* Too often we participate in the globalization of indifference. May we strive instead to live global solidarity.
* The “throw-away” culture produces many bitter fruits,
from wasting food to isolating many elderly people.
* Being a Christian means renouncing ourselves, taking
the cross and carrying it with Jesus. There is no other
way.

La Dedicación de la Basílica de Letrán
9 de noviembre de 2014
El Dios de los ejércitos nos cuida,
y es el Dios de Jacob nuestra defensa.
— Salmo 46 (45):8
EL TEMPLO Y LA ADORACIÓN
En todas las lecturas de hoy, el Templo es mencionado predominantemente. Ezequiel habla de aguas
vivas que fluyen del Templo, regando el desierto, trayendo vida a todas las cosas vivientes, brindando salud y
frescor al pueblo de Dios.
Pablo recuerda a los corintios que su fe reposa sobre
bases firmes, Cristo mismo. Más que eso, Pablo les
revela que quienes siguen a Cristo son templos ellos
mismos, templos del Espíritu Santo, es decir, que Dios
no solamente habita con ellos, sino dentro de ellos.
Para los judíos de los tiempos de Jesús, el Templo
era identificado con la presencia de Dios y como el lugar
santo en donde la verdadera adoración a Dios tenía
lugar. Jesús tenía una percepción diferente. Jesús se
identifica a sí mismo no con el Templo, sino como el
templo. Al hacerlo, Jesús mostró un cambio dramático
en lo que significa adorar a Dios, estar en la presencia
de Dios. Ya no sería un sitio el centro de oración. Ahora
una persona, la persona de Jesucristo, viene a ser el
centro de nuestra adoración.

ORACIÓN DE LA FAMILIA
OH DIOS, PADRE NUESTRO, en Jesús
llamas a todas las familias y hogares cristianos a ser ejemplos de fe viva.
Guiados por la luz del Espiritu Santo,
haz que seamos agradecidos por el don de la fe, y que
por medio de ese don crezcamos en nuestra relacion
con Jesus, tu Hijo, y seamos autenticos testigos de
esperanza y gozo cristiano para todos aquellos con los
que nos encontremos.
En el nombre de Jesucristo, nuestro Senor.
