St. Jerome Catholic Church San Antonio, Texas
“The whole city was shak-
en” (Matthew 21:10). If the beasts of burden, the tree branches all over
the road, and the shouted hosannas weren’t enough of a sign, when
Jesus passes through the gates of the holy city the very earth quakes.
Among all the evangelists, the
Greek verb eseisthe is unique to Matthew. He uses it three times:
here, in the moment Jesus dies (27:51), and when the angel appears outside the empty tomb (28:4). It
is a sign of a theophany, a manifestation of God on earth. The final two times the witnesses react immediately with the recognition of
God’s presence, but for now the city is ignorant. “Who is this?” is a
far cry from “Truly, this was the Son of God!” (21:10 , 27:54). The earthquake tells them that something momentous is happening, but
they don’t yet realize that in seeing Jesus they have seen the Lord.
Question of the Week How can I rely on God during my trials and hardships?
How will this help?

Souls in Purgatory
In Today’s Readings
En Las Lecturas de Hoy “Toda la ciudad se conmo-
vió” (Mateo 21, 10). Por si el ani-
mal de yugo, las ramas de los
árboles sobre el camino y los gri-
tos de hosanna no fueran signos
suficientes, la ciudad entera se
conmovió. Entre todos los evan-
gelistas el verbo en griego eseisthe
es único de Mateo. Lo usa tres
veces: aquí, en el momento que
muero Jesús (27, 51) y cuando el ángel aparece afuera del se-
pulcro vacío (28, 4). Es signo de una teofanía o manifestación
de Dios en la tierra. Las últimas dos veces los testigos reaccio-
nan inmediatamente al reconocer la presencia de Dios, pero
por ahora la ciudad permanece en la ignorancia. “¿Quién es
éste?” dista mucho de “Verdaderamente éste era Hijo de
Dios” (21, 10 , 27, 54). El temblor de la tierra les dice que algo
transcendental está sucediendo, pero aún no se dan cuenta de
que al ver a Jesús han visto al Señor.
Pregunta de la Semana ¿Cómo puedo confiar en Dios durante mis pruebas y ad-
versidades? ¿Me ayudaría esa confianza?
