Sixth Sunday of Ordinary Time
February 15, 2015
God’s Word is an Inexhaustible Spring of Life
From a commentary on the Diatessaron
by Saint Ephrem, deacon
For us, Christ is everything. We begin
in each day in his presence. We are his
people, from many walks of life, and
from many nations and languages. We
adore the Lord, address him with the
psalms of our ancestors and enter the
sacred Liturgy, the source and summit
in our life in Christ. Through our
Catechetical programs we pass on the
faith both to adults and children, training
in holiness which calls us to a Holy life
distinguished above all in the art of
prayer. Rising from prayer we minister
to the needs of those who ask our help,
with food and other assistance. We are
the people of
St. Edward Catholic Church in Newark,
California. Christ is everything. If you
have a wound to heal, he is the doctor;
if you are in need of help, he is strength;
if you fear death, he is life; if you desire
Heaven, he is the way; if you are in the
darkness, he is light. Blessed are they
who hope in him!
Lord, who can comprehend even one of your
words? We lose more of it than we grasp, like those
who drink from a living spring. For God’s word offers
different facets according to the capacity of the
listener, and the Lord has portrayed his message in
many colors, so that whoever gazes upon it can see
in it what suits him. Within it he has buried manifold
treasures, so that each of us might grow rich in
seeking them out.
The word of God is a tree of life that offers us
blessed fruit from each of its branches. It is like that
rock which was struck open in the wilderness, from
which all were offered spiritual drink. As the Apostle
says: They ate spiritual food and they drank spiritual
drink.
And so whenever anyone discovers some
part of the treasure, he should not think that he has
exhausted God’s word. Instead he should feel that
this is all that he was able to find of the wealth
contained in it. Nor should he say that the word is
weak and sterile or look down on it simply because
this portion was all that he happened to find. But
precisely because he could not capture it all he
should give thanks for its riches.
Be glad then that you are overwhelmed, and
do not be saddened because he has overcome you.
A thirsty man is happy when he is drinking, and he is
not depressed because he cannot exhaust the
spring. So let this spring quench your thirst, and not
your thirst the spring. For if you can satisfy your
thirst without exhausting the spring, then when you
thirst again you can drink from it once more; but if
when your thirst is sated the spring is also dried up,

then your victory would turn to your own harm.
Be thankful then for what you have received,
and do not be saddened at all that such an
abundance still remains. What you have received
and attained is your present share, while what is left
will be your heritage. For what you could not take at
one time because of your weakness, you will be able
to grasp at another if you only persevere. So do not
foolishly try to drain in one draught what cannot be
consumed all at once, and do not cease out of
faintheartedness from what you will be able to
absorb as time goes on.

BOLETIM PORTUGUÊS
MISSA DOMINGO VI DO TEMPO
COMUM
COMENTÁRIO
As categorias: puro/impuro são estranhas à mentalidade
moderna, mas de grande importância na literatura bíblica,
sobretudo nos escritos sacerdotais como o livro do
Levítico. Em tal obra, há uma série de proibições a serem
observadas a fim de que as pessoas não fiquem impuras;
pois, para que alguém se aproxime daquilo que é santo é
necessário ser puro.
“Santo” é tudo aquilo que é divino ou pertencente a Deus,
aquilo que é separado de todo o resto; “puro” é o que
pode entrar em contato com o “santo”. O estado de
pureza torna possível a comunhão com o mundo da
santidade divina; já o da impureza o impede. Assim, fica
claro que a distinção entre puro e impuro não diz respeito
necessariamente à situação moral de uma pessoa, isto é,
não equivale ao fato de ela ser boa ou má, mas se refere
principalmente à sua dimensão física. Mas por que
certas coisas são impuras e outras não? Encontrar uma
explicação racional para esta pergunta nem sempre é
fácil, provavelmente nem mesmo possível. Muitas vezes,
são tabus ancestrais ligados a um modo de ver as coisas
totalmente diferentes de como conhecemos o mundo
hoje em dia. De um modo geral, podemos dizer que a
pureza está ligada à integridade do ser. O contato com
qualquer coisa que esteja no âmbito da morte, como um
ser humano ou um animal morto, moribundo, mutilado,
contaminado, deformado, traz impureza. Tudo isto é
bastante claro nas leituras deste 6º Domingo Comum. O
Antigo Testamento reúne várias enfermidades de pele
que correspondem somente em parte, e talvez muito
pouco, àquilo que hoje chamamos lepra (hanseníase).
Quando a pele mostra qualquer “inflamação, erupção ou
mancha branca”, fala-se do mal da lepra. E, uma vez
declarado pelo sacerdote oficialmente impuro, é dever do
leproso andar “com as vestes rasgadas, os cabelos em
desordem e a barba coberta”, revelando a todos o seu
estado de proximidade com a morte, gritando: “impuro,
impuro!” para que ninguém se aproxime dele e fique
impuro. Talvez pra nós hoje isso soe ridículo, mas para a
época bíblica não era. Para facilitar a nossa
compreensão, basta assistir a um capítulo da nova
novela das oito: “Caminho das Índias”, e perceber o grau
de humilhação e de exclusão total que sofre um
“dalit” (Os dalits ou os intocáveis ou impuros são os
indianos que não descendem de nenhuma casta, coisa
necessária para se ter direitos, são excluídos e vivem
uma vida lamentável). O dalit tem que ter o cuidado para
que nem mesmo a sua sombra alcance alguém para não
Missa Domingo VI Do Tempo Comum
torná-lo impuro. Com a cura do leproso, Jesus muda
tudo. Mas vejamos agora o que diz o relato. São três os
momentos fortes: primeiro, o fato do leproso descumprir a
lei. Em vez de se revelar impuro para Jesus, o leproso se
aproxima e professa a sua fé no poder de Jesus. Depois,
também Jesus viola a lei e toca o leproso. Finalmente, as
consequências da cura prodigiosa. O aproximar-se do
anônimo enfermo de lepra é introduzido pelo evangelista
com “um leproso chegou perto de Jesus””. É um modo de
Marcos ligar este episódio ao versículo imediatamente
precedente no qual Jesus, depois de ter curado muitos
doentes e expulsado muitos demônios, andava
anunciando o Evangelho em toda a Galiléia. Assim, o
evangelista quer explicar aos leitores aquele fato
estranho e desconcertante: contra todo tabu, o leproso
pode se aproximar de Jesus porque no seu lar chegou a
boa notícia de que também para ele, que vivia isolado da
aldeia, o Mestre oferecia uma esperança de cura que
tinha como finalidade reintegrá-lo na comunidade. É
interessante notar o pedido explícito do enfermo para
receber a cura. Normalmente, os enfermos é que são
levados a Jesus. Aqui é o próprio quem procura a Jesus.
Já que foi expulso, não há ninguém que o ajude. O
leproso suplica de joelhos, a sua oração é um exemplo
de fé pura, reconhecendo sem reservas a vontade e o
poder de Jesus: “se queres, tens o poder de curar-me”.
Para este homem, que Jesus tenha poder é evidente;
mas, que possa fazer algo por ele, depende da sua
vontade; por isso, o leproso acredita no poder de Jesus e
se submete a sua vontade. Aquele homem ousa
apresentar-se a Jesus, diante de quem apresenta a
condição miserável de sua pessoa, tornado assim graças
a uma discutível organização religiosa e social.
