Bearing the Right Kind of Fruit

Today’s readings focus our attention on vineyards. Isaiah’s song concerning his friend’s vineyard begins with inspiring and poetic images of an idyllic vineyard where the choicest harvest is expected. Instead, the vineyard yields wild grapes, which causes the owner to abandon it. The psalmist cries out to God, asking that God once again take care of the vineyard, which is the house of Israel. The parable told in today’s Gospel offers a stern warning that those who commit treachery in the hopes of attaining personal wealth will be “put . . . to a wretched death” (Matthew 21:41). Jesus warns his listeners not to

act like the murderous tenants in the vineyard. Instead he exhorts them to produce the kind of fruit that will lead them to the kingdom of God. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

LECTURAS DE HOY Primera lectura — El Señor busca una cosecha de justicia (Isaías 5:1-7). Salmo — La viña del Señor es la casa de Israel (Salmo 80 [79]). Segunda lectura — Mora con pensamientos de pureza y justicia y sabrás lo que es la paz (Filipenses 4:6-9). Evangelio — La piedra que rechazaron los constructores

se ha convertido en la piedra angular (Mateo 21:33-43). Salmo responsorial: Leccionario Hispanoamericano Dominical © 1970, Comisión Episcopal Española. Usado con permiso. Todos los derechos reservados.

DAR BUEN FRUTO Las lecturas de hoy ponen su atención en las viñas. El cántico de Isaías respecto a la viña de su amada comienza con inspiradoras y poéticas imágenes de una idílica viña de la cual se espera la más exquisita cosecha. En cambio, la viña da uvas agrias, lo cual hace que el dueño la abandone. El salmista clama a Dios, pidiéndole que la visite otra vez, ya que es la casa de Israel. La pará-bola que cuenta hoy el Evangelio ofrece la seria adverten-cia de que a los que cometen traición esperando obtener ganancia personal se les “dará muerte terrible” (Mateo 21:41). Jesús advierte a sus oyentes que no actúen como los viñadores asesinos en la viña. Más bien los exhorta a que produzcan el tipo de fruto que los llevará al Reino de Dios. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE La Virgen María tiene siglos de estar apareciéndose a los cristianos. Aún antes de que fuese asunta al cielo, ella ya se le había aparecido al apóstol Santiago en Zaragoza, España. Según una antigua leyenda, Santiago llegó a tierra espa-ñola en el año 40 para predicar el Evangelio. Tuvo poco éxito y desanimado pensaba sacudirse de los pies el polvo de aquella tierra y buscar convertir otras gentes. Mientras estaba en oración, María, la madre de Jesús, se le apareció con palabras de consuelo, ánimo y un pequeño obsequio. Le dio una imagen de ella misma sobre un pilar y con el Niño Jesús en brazos. En esa tierra ella pidió la construcción de un templo donde ella misma sería altar para la gloria de Dios. Santiago mismo construyó la primera iglesia donde hoy se encuentra una gran basílica en honor de Nuestra Señora del Pilar. En el siglo XVIII, el Papa Clemente XII declaró el 12 de octubre como su fiesta en memoria de la llegada de los europeos al continente americano. De María vienen los principios del Día de la Raza. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc..
