Twenty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time

Humbly welcome the word
that has been planted in you
— James 1:21b

Acepten dócilmente la palabra
que ha sido sembrada en ustedes
y es capaz de salvarlos
— Santiago 1:21b
TWENTY-SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
TRADITION
Tradition is long human memory set, not in stone, but in human
interaction. Without this active memory, the bonds of relationship and
affection fray and fall apart. Communities dissolve as surely as neglected
buildings do. After participating in events, celebrations, and even small
rituals, we remark about how good it is to gather and remember.
Today’s readings remind us of foundations laid deeper than the human will to relate.
Today we hear about God’s will to relate to us—to be our God as we are called to be
God’s own beloved people.
Today in three readings and three ways we remember the covenant bonds that create
us as a people and the obligation and responsibility that express the innermost attitude of
soul. You are mine. I am yours. These are God’s words that created a people as surely as
“Let there be light” created the sun and moon and all the stars.

VIGESIMO SEGUNDO DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO
TRADICIÓN
La tradición es la memoria humana a largo plazo, mantenida no en
piedra sino en la interrelación humana. Sin esta memoria activa, los lazos de
relaciones y de afecto se debilitan y se deshacen. Las comunidades se separan tan de
seguro como caen los edificios abandonados. Después de participar en acontecimientos,
celebraciones y hasta en pequeños ritos, comentamos lo bueno que es el reunirnos y
recordar.
Las lecturas de hoy nos recuerdan aquellos fundamentos que van más hondo
que la voluntad humana para relacionarse. Hoy escuchamos sobre la voluntad divina de
relacionarse con nosotros —de ser nuestro Dios tal como nosotros somos llamados a ser
el pueblo amado de Dios.
Hoy recordamos en tres lecturas y de tres maneras los lazos de la alianza que nos
establece como pueblo, y las obligaciones y responsabilidades que expresan lo más hondo
del alma. Tú eres mío. Yo soy tuya. Estas son palabras de Dios que crearon a un pueblo,
tan seguramente como “Hágase la luz” creó el sol y la luna y todas las estrellas.

Reflecting on God’s Word
Is someone in your house going back to school? If so
there are books and supplies to buy, schedules to
plan, transportation to be arranged. There is the
worry over new teachers and whether everything that
was learned last year has been forgotten. But no matter. Most of the time the school year begins with a
review. That’s good because sometimes we understand things better the second or third time we learn
them.
With the scriptures this Sunday all of us are going
back to school. The series of selections from the Gospel of Mark and the letter of James that we begin this
week will teach us one more time what it means to be
a disciple. Lucky for us, since most of us can only
learn this lesson if we hear and apply it on a daily basis. Today’s first reading also instructs us to “hear”
and “observe” “the commandments of the Lord . . .
that [we] may live” (Deuteronomy 4:1, 2). And the
psalm reviews the basics: “The one who does justice
will live in the presence of the Lord” (15:1a).

Living God’s Word
They say we learn more from example than we do
from words. Today we are blessed to be going back to
school with the very best of teachers, Jesus, who was
the model “doer of the word” (James 1:22). If we
want to know how to “do justice,” all we need to do is
imitate our favorite teacher.

Reflexionemos sobre la Palabra de Dios
¿Hay alguien en tu familia que regresa a la escuela? Si
es así, habrá libros y otros materiales que comprar,
horarios que planificar y arreglos que hacer para el
transporte. Están también las preocupaciones sobre
los nuevos maestros y si todo lo que se aprendió el año
anterior ha sido olvidado. Pero no hay por qué
preocuparse. La mayoría de las veces el nuevo año
escolar comienza con un repaso. Eso es bueno, ya que
algunas veces entendemos mejor las cosas cuando las
escuchamos por segunda o tercera vez.
Con las Escrituras de este domingo todos volvemos de
nuevo a la escuela. La serie de pasajes seleccionados
del Evangelio de Marcos y la carta de Santiago que
comenzamos esta semana nos enseñarán una vez más
lo que significa ser discípulo. Esto es afortunado para
la mayoría de nosotros, que sólo nos es posible
aprender esta lección si la escuchamos y la ponemos
en práctica diariamente. La primera lectura de hoy
también nos instruye para “escuchar” y “practicar”
“las leyes . . . y los preceptos que [nos] da el Señor. . .
para que [vivamos]” (Deuteronomio 4:1, 2). Y el
salmo repasa lo básico: “El que procede con rectitud,
se comporta honradamente” (15:2a).

Vivamos la Palabra de Dios
Se dice que aprendemos más con el ejemplo que con
las palabras. Hoy tenemos la bendición de regresar a
la escuela con el mejor de los maestros, Jesús, que fue
el modelo en poner “en práctica la palabra” (Santiago
1:22). Si queremos saber cómo “proceder con
rectitud”, o sea, practicar la justicia, todo lo que
tenemos que hacer es imitar a nuestro maestro
predilecto.
