All three readings have examples of people complaining in different ways. Paul contrasts two ways of life. One way, a complaining and dissatisfied life, results in “bitterness, fury, anger….” In the other path, the life of the Spirit, others are treated with love and compassion and everyone strives to be “imitators of God, as beloved children who live in love.” In the First Reading, the prophet Elijah is despondent. The King and Queen of Israel seek to kill him because he had destroyed the prophets of Baal. Afraid, Elijah calls upon the Lord to end his life, saying that he has suffered enough. In the midst of his complaint, the Lord strengthens Elijah with food. This food renews Elijah and he sets out to “the mountain of God, Horeb,” where the Ten Commandments were given to Moses (Deuteronomy 5:2). The people of Israel also complain against Jesus in John’s Gospel today as the “Bread of Life Discourse” continues. Jesus contrasts the bread that he is to give with the bread that their ancestors ate. Their ancestors ate the bread and died. On the other hand, Jesus, the true living bread, guarantees eternal life for all who eat of it. John goes on to explain that “the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world.” T he idiom “flesh and blood” is a Hebrew way of referring to the “whole person.” Here John deliberately connects the Death of Jesus and the Eucharist. By eating of his body, the bread of life, Jesus promises the fruits of his Death and Resurrection: eternal life and a living relationship with God. As God sustained and renewed Elijah’s life, so Jesus now sustains his followers through himself, “the living bread that came down from heaven.” The Eucharist is the true food for our life’s journey. Why do “the Jews” complain in today’s Gospel? How would you explain the connection between the
Eucharist and Jesus’ Death and Resurrection to a newcomer?
In your own experience how does the Eucharist renew you
and give you a new sense of strength for your life’s journey?
