PARISH LIFE

Original Unity of Man and Woman So the man gave names to all the live-stock, the birds in the sky and all the wild Animals (Gn 20). The man said, this is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’ for she was taken out of man (Gn 23). Adam and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame (Gn 25). “And the man and his wife were both naked, and were not ashamed.” At first sight, the introduction of this detail, apparently a secondary one in the Yahwist account of man’s creation, may seem something inadequate or misplaced. One would think that the passage quoted cannot bear comparison with what has been dealt with in the preceding verses and that, in a way, it goes beyond the context. However, this judgment does not stand up to a deeper analysis. Genesis 2:25 presents one of the key elements of the original revelation. It is as decisive as the other texts of Genesis 2:20 and 2:23, which has already enabled us to define the meaning of man’s original solitude and original unity. To these is added, as a third element, the meaning of original nakedness, clearly stressed in the context. In the first biblical draft of anthropology, i.e., study of human behavior past and present, it is not something accidental. On the contrary it is precisely the key for its full and complete understanding. This element of the ancient biblical text makes a specific contribution to the theology of the body that absolutely cannot be ignored. Further analysis will confirm this. But before undertaking them, I take the liberty of pointing out that the text of Genesis 2:25 expressly requires that the reflections on the theology of the body should be connected with the dimension of man’s personal subjectivity. It is within the latter that consciousness of the meaning of the body develops. Genesis 2:25 speaks about it far more directly than other parts of the Yahwist text, which we have already defined as the first recording of human consciousness. St. John Paul II, Theology of the Body. In the month of May 2018, 291 babies were aborted at the EMW Women’s Surgical Center in Louisville. Ed Cecil, Respect Life Committee

MARRIAGE MOMENTS

From Archdiocese of Louisville

Family Ministries Office

"But they had no child, because Elizabeth was

barren..." (Luke 1:7). God said to Zechariah,

"Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son."

(Luke 1:13) Perhaps you long for a child.

Perhaps you already have a child or several.

Regardless, ponder how your married love can

reflect the generativity of God by supporting

a child who is not your biological child.

PARISH LIFE

Religious Freedom Week

Religious Liberty is our first, most cherished liberty. God made us as

creatures who seek truth about God and about life, and religious

freedom is the cornerstone of a society that promotes human dignity.

During this week, we strive to pray, reflect, and act to ensure that all

persons of faith, both in our country and worldwide, are given this

freedom to worship and to serve others in God’s love. As Pope Francis reminds us, “All are called to

be vigilant, precisely as good citizens, to preserve and defend that freedom from everything that

would threaten or compromise it.” Learn more at www.usccb.org/ReligiousFreedomWeek.

PARENTING POINTERS From Archdiocese of Louisville Family Ministries Office Discipline does not mean punishment. The purpose of discipline is to help your child learn to become

responsible. Allow your child to experience the consequences of their actions. If a child chooses not to

study for a test, she will get a poor grade. If he leaves his bicycle out in the yard, it may get rusty or

stolen. If she does not set her alarm, she may miss the school bus. These may seem like hard lessons,

but better to learn them when the stakes are low than when losing a job

or having an untimely pregnancy might be the consequence.
