EVANGELIUM E OMELIA\HOMILY:
In illo tempore: Misérunt Judǽi ab Jerosólymis sacerdótes et levítas ad Joánnem, ut interrogárent eum: Tu quis es? Et conféssus est, et non negávit: et conféssus est: Quia non sum ego Christus. Et interrogavérunt eum: Quid ergo? Elías es tu? Et dixit: Non sum. Prophéta es tu? Et respondit: Non. Dixérunt ergo ei: Quis es, ut respónsum demus his, qui misérunt nos? Quid dicis de te ipso? Ait: Ego vox clamántis in desérto: Dirígite viam Dómini, sicut dixit Isaías Prophéta. Et qui missi fúerant, erant ex pharisǽis. Et interrogavérunt eum, et dixérunt ei: Quid ergo baptízas, si tu non es Christus, neque Elías, neque Prophéta? Respóndit eis Joánnes, dicens: Ego baptízo in aqua: médius autem vestrum stetit, quem vos nescítis. Ipse est, qui post me ventúrus est, qui ante me factus est: cujus ego non sum dignus ut solvam ejus corrígiam calceaménti. Hæc in Bethánia facta sunt trans Jordánem, ubi erat Joánnes baptízans.
Gospel
John 1:19-28
At that time, the Jews sent to John from Jerusalem priests and Levites to ask him, Who are you? And he acknowledged and did not deny; and he acknowledged, I am not the Christ. And they asked him, What then? Are you Elias? And he said, I am not. Are you the Prophet? And he answered, No. They therefore said to him, Who are you? that we may give an answer to those who sent us. What have you to say of yourself? He said, I am the voice of one crying in the desert, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord,’ as said Isaias the prophet. And they who had been sent were from among the Pharisees. And they asked him, and said to him, Why, then, do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elias, nor the Prophet? John said to them in answer, I baptize with water; but in the midst of you there has stood One Whom you do not know. He it is Who is to come after me, Who has been set above me, the strap of Whose sandal I am not worthy to loose. These things took place at Bethany, beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
DALL’OMELIA DI (FROM THE HOMILY BY) DON ENRICO RONCAGLIA – DOMENICA 17/12/2023 ORE 10.30:
DALL’OMELIA DI DON ENRICO RONCAGLIA (**,1)
Nel Vangeli i sacerdoti israeliti interrogano S. Giovanni Battista riguardo a chi sia lui o pensi di essere.
S. Giovanni risponde che lui non e’ il Cristo, ovvero il Messia, ne’ Elia ne il profeta. Di essere uno che grida nel deserto. Di battezzare in acqua in preparazione del battesimo del Cristo, colui che viene prima di me e a cui non sono degno di legare i lacci dei sandali.
Siamo alla terza domenica di Avvento, la domenica in gaudete (“gioite nel Signore sempre!”). Da qui il colore rosa (di gioia) degli addobbi liturgici.
La liturgia parla di San Giovanni Battista. Non e’ il Messia, ne un profeta, ma uno che grida: “Preparate la via del Signore! Convertitevi e preparatevi per il Messia!”
Anche noi non dobbiamo perdere piu’ tempo! La Chiesa puo’ risollevarsi solo con l’aiuto di Cristo!
Quindi dobbiamo gioire nel Signore perche’ lui e’ vicino!
Sia lodato Gesu’ Cristo! Sempre sia lodato!

FROM THE HOMILY BY DON ENRICO RONCAGLIA (**,1)
In the Gospels, the Israelite priests question St. John the Baptist about who he is or thinks he is. St. John replies that he is not the Christ, or the Messiah, nor Elijah nor the prophet. Of being one who cries in the desert. To baptize in water in preparation for the baptism of Christ, the one who comes before me and whose sandal straps I am not worthy to tie. We are on the third Sunday of Advent, the Sunday in gaudete (“rejoice in the Lord always!”). Hence the pink color (of joy) of the liturgical decorations. The liturgy speaks of Saint John the Baptist. He is not the Messiah, nor a prophet, but one who shouts: “Prepare the way of the Lord! Convert and prepare for the Messiah!” We too must not waste any more time! The Church can only recover with the help of Christ! So we must rejoice in the Lord because he is near!
Praised be Jesus Christ! Always be praised!
