Twenty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time – Year A


Jesus speaks of his Passion and rebukes Peter for his objection.
Matthew 16:21-27
Gospel Reading

Paul encourages the Romans to stay faithful to God.
Romans 12:1-2
Second Reading

Our souls yearn for God.
Psalm 63:2-6,8-9
Responsorial Psalm

Jeremiah laments but cannot fail to speak in God’s name.
Jeremiah 20:7-9
First Reading


 Peter rejects this prediction, and Jesus rebukes him severely, calling him “Satan.” In opposing this aspect of Jesus’ mission, Peter shows that he is no longer speaking based on the revelation from God but as a human being. Jesus then teaches all of the disciples about the difficult path of discipleship: to be Christ’s disciple is to follow in his way of the cross.

Peter could not yet understand what it meant to call Jesus the Messiah. It is unlikely that the other disciples understood any better. Messianic expectations were a common aspect of first-century Judaism. Under Roman occupation, many in Israel hoped and prayed that God would send a Messiah to free the Jews from Roman oppression. The common view was that the Messiah would be a political figure, a king that would free Israel from Roman rule. This is perhaps what Peter envisioned when he was led to recognize Jesus as the Messiah. In this passage, however, Jesus is beginning to teach his disciples that he would be the Messiah in a different way.

Jesus would be more like the suffering servant described by the prophet Isaiah than the political liberator. Those who would be Jesus' disciples would be called to a similar life of service. Perhaps this is what Peter feared most in Jesus’ prediction of his Passion. He whom Jesus had called “rock” would also be called upon to offer himself in sacrifice and service to others. Christian leaders today are still called to sacrifice and serve others as Jesus did.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

En el evangelio de este domingo escuchamos a Jesús que dice: “Si alguien quiere venir en pos de mí, niéguese a sí mismo, coja su cruz y me siga. Porque quien quiera salvar su vida la perderá, pero quien pierda su vida por causa mía, la encontrará”.

¿Qué significa “negarse a sí mismo”? Es más, ¿por qué hay que negarse a sí mismo? Conocemos la indignación que suscitaba en el filósofo Nietzsche esta exigencia del Evangelio. Comienzo respondiendo con un ejemplo. Durante la persecución nazi, muchos trenes cargados de hebreos partían desde todas partes de Europa hacia los campos de exterminio. Se les convencía de subir a ellos con falsas promesas de llevarlos a lugares mejores por su bien, mientras que en cambio se les llevaba a la destrucción. A veces sucedía que en alguna parada del convoy, alguien que sabía la verdad gritaba a escondidas a los pasajeros: bajad, huid. Y alguno lo conseguía.

Pero debemos hacer inmediatamente una precisión: Jesús no nos pide renegar de “lo que somos”, sino de “aquello en lo que nos hemos convertido”. Nosotros somos imagen de Dios, somos por tanto algo “muy bueno”, como dijo Dios mismo en el momento de crear al hombre y la mujer. De lo que tenemos que renegar no es de lo que Dios ha hecho, sino de lo que hemos hecho nosotros, usando mal nuestra libertad. En otras palabras, las tendencias malas, el pecado, todas esas cosas que son como incrustaciones posteriores superpuestas al original.

“Negarse a sí mismo” no es por tanto una operación para la muerte sino para la vida, para la belleza y para la alegría. Consiste también en aprender el lenguaje del verdadero amor. Imagina, decía un gran filósofo del siglo pasado, Kierkegaard, una situación puramente humana. Dos jóvenes se aman. Pero pertenecen a dos pueblos diversos y hablan dos lenguas completamente diversas. Si su amor quiere sobrevivir y crecer, es necesario que uno de los dos aprenda el idioma del otro. En caso contrario, no podrán comunicarse y su amor no durará.

Homilía del P. Raniero Cantalamessa, ofmcap

PRAYER O Jesus,
you are the Son of God. And so, you not only solve our problems and respond to our aspirations, you also do so with unexpected fullness.
As the Son sent to us by the Father, you are the God who comes to meet us and manifests for us the God whom we seek. You are the revelation of God for us— the full, perfect, divine revelation—
God in person. In you the God-who-is-far-off becomes the God-who-is-near, the God-with-us, and the God-who-is-one-of-us, our companion on life’s journey.
You alone, O Lord, are the Way, the Truth, and the Life, the Messiah, and the Son of the Living God. Amen. (Adapted from “Prayer to Jesus,
True God” in the New St. Joseph People’s Prayer Book [Catholic Book Publishing Company])
