Nel quadro della vita ecclesiale e sociale di oggi i fondamenti culturali più capaci di delineare delle caratteristiche di vita aperte e liberanti appaiono quelli derivanti da analisi ed interpretazioni serie ed appassionate delle Scritture bibliche. E nella Chiesa di Gesù Cristo catechesi, liturgia e carità sociale risultano dall’antichità le assi portanti della sua azione ed esistenza, sia pure certamente secondo peculiarità specifiche delle diverse confessioni cristiane.

On Sundays in Ordinary Time throughout 2021 What Good News will be presenting a reading from the Gospel according to Mark. This evangelist created the gospel genre, and was the first to compose a gospel narrative. This presentation demonstrates the skill with which Mark put his gospel together, and considers also how the later gospels of Matthew and Luke adapted what Mark wrote and added to it.

How did belief in the resurrection arise within Judaism in the two centuries before Christ? Earlier texts (Psalm 88 and Job 3) attest the ancient Jewish belief that the dead have a shadowy existence in the underworld, while Ecclesiastes and Sirach have no belief in any meaningful personal afterlife. However, reflection on the persecution of devout Jews by Antiochus Epiphanes (167-164 BC) led to a growing belief in individual resurrection, especially for martyrs. Such a resurrection belief is evident in Daniel 12 and 2 Maccabees 7, as well as Wisdom 3, before it becomes predominant in the New Testament.

Das Fest der Verkündigung des Herrn, das auch als das Fest der Menschwerdung des Wortes gefeiert wird, ist reich an Bedeutung und hat mehrere Dimensionen. Sicherlich ist es ein christologisches Fest. Seine Bedeutung und Botschaft ist jedoch untrennbar mit der Jungfrau Maria verbunden, denn Maria von Nazareth ist seine Hauptprotagonistin. Es ist also das Fest der Jungfrau Maria als einer Person, die eine einzigartige und wesentliche Rolle in Gottes Heilsplan gespielt hat, der von Christus vollzogen wurde.

La fête de l’Annonciation du Seigneur, célébrée aussi comme étant la fête de l’Incarnation de la Parole, est riche en sens et est multidimensionnelle. Évidement c’est une fête christologique mais son message et son sens restent intrinsèquement liés à la Vierge Marie, parce que Marie de Nazareth en est le protagoniste majeur. C’est donc la fête de la Vierge Marie, cette personne qui a joué l’essentiel et l'unique rôle dans l’œuvre salvatrice de Dieu, réalisée par le Christ.

The feast of the Annunciation of the Lord, also celebrated as the feast of the Incarnation of the Word, is rich in meaning and has multiple dimensions. Surely, it is a Christological feast. However, its meaning and message is inseparably tied with the Virgin Mary, because Mary of Nazareth is its main protagonist. It is, therefore, the feast of the Virgin Mary as a person who played a unique and essential part in God's work of salvation, carried our by Christ.
