THE EW COVEAT
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITIO
Today’s first reading is an enormously important
passage, not only in the history of the Jewish people, but
also for us as disciples of Jesus, who see in it a
foreshadowing of the Christian dispensation. The prophet
announces that God has chosen to forgive the people, and
that as a sign of divine forgiveness a new covenant will be
established. Contrasting the new covenant with the one
made with Moses on Mount Sinai, Jeremiah says that the
new covenant will be written on the people’s hearts rather
than on tablets of stone. No longer will the community’s
tradition be the sole bearer of the covenant; henceforth,
God will speak directly and personally to each individual,
forgiving sin and calling for a return to God in faithfulness.
No longer will mere outward compliance with the dictates
of the Law suffice; henceforth, God asks for an obedience
that springs from the depths of one’s heart.
Precisely that kind of obedience is highlighted in
today’s second reading, where the author of the Letter to
the Hebrews describes Jesus as the mediator of the new
covenant whose obedience has made him the source of
salvation for all who, in turn, obey him.
Ask senior parishioners about this fifth Sunday, and
they will share memories of this Sunday years ago, when
it was known as “Passion Sunday.” In those days, the
statues and crucifixes were draped in purple cloth, and a
deeply somber atmosphere infused worship. The structure
is different today for good reason. The stunning changes
in the appearance of the church building drew attention
away from the twofold work of Lent: reconciliation and
preparing for initiation. Today, this Sunday is given to
reflection on the necessity to commit, like Jesus, to the
Father’s will. Wherever elect are present today, the “A”
reading reveals Jesus’ compassion in the face of human
suffering, and his desire to call us from the tombs of sin,
isolation, and even death itself.
As Lent draws to a close over the next ten days, and
before the beginning of the Easter Triduum on Holy
Thursday, we enter an ideal time for celebrating the
sacrament of reconciliation. Today’s old title of “Passion
Sunday” has migrated to next Sunday, also called “Palm
Sunday.” In many places, people prepare their own
bundles of branches for next week’s liturgy: pussy
willow, forsythia, dogwood. If your parish schedules a
procession, you may want to prepare these branches at
home and bring them along.

LECTURAS DE HOY
Primera lectura - El Señor hará una nueva alianza con la
casa de Israel. (Jeremías 31:31-34) o
Ezequiel 37:12-14.
Salmo - Oh Dios, crea en mí un corazón puro
(Salmo 51 [50]) o Salmo 130 (129).
Segunda lectura - Cristo aprendió obediencia, y los que
ahora le obedecen encuentran en él la salvación eterna
(Hebreos 5:7-9) o Romanos 8:8-11.
Evangelio - Si el grano de trigo cae en tierra y muere, da
mucho fruto (Juan 12:20-33) o Juan 11:1-45.
VIA CRUCIS LOS VIERES DE CUARESMA
7:30 PM - ESPAÑOL - IGLESIA DE ARRIBA
EL UEVO PACTO
La primera lectura de hoy es un paso muy importante, en
la historia del pueblo judío y también para nosotros como
discípulos de Jesús que ven en ella un anuncio de la
dispensación cristiana. El profeta anuncia que Dios ha
escogido perdonar al pueblo, y que como un signo del
perdón divino se establecerá una nueva alianza.
Contrastando la nueva alianza con la que Dios hizo con
Moisés en el Monte Sinaí, Jeremías dice que el nuevo pacto
será inscrito en el corazón del pueblo y no en tablas de
piedra. Ya no será la tradición de la comunidad la única
portadora de la alianza; a partir de ahora, Dios hablará
directa y personalmente a cada individuo, perdonando el
pecado y pidiendo un retorno a Él en fidelidad. Ya no
bastará el mero cumplimiento de los dictados externos de la
ley; a partir de ahora, Dios pide una obediencia que brota de
lo más profundo de nuestro corazón.
Precisamente ese tipo de obediencia se destaca en la
segunda lectura de hoy, donde el autor de la Carta a los
Hebreos describe a Jesús como el mediador del nuevo pacto,
cuya obediencia ha hecho de él la fuente de salvación para
todos los que, a su vez, le obedecen.

TRADICIOES DE UESTRA FE
Basándose en las palabras de Jesús, Mariano de Blas,
compuso su canto: “Entre tus manos”. Este hermoso canto
nos recuerda que “hay que morir para vivir”, es decir, que no
es nada fácil ser discípulo de Jesucristo. El mismo Jesús nos
pide que nos neguemos a nosotros mismos (Mateo 16:24);
que carguemos la cruz para seguirlo (Marcos 8:34); que
perdamos nuestra vida por su nombre (Lucas 9:24). Todo
esto porque Jesús reconoce que el grano de trigo debe morir
para dar vida, para multiplicarse (Juan 12:24).
El canto: “Una espiga dorada por el sol”, de Cesáreo
Gabaráin, nos recuerda que los cristianos somos trigo del
mismo sembrador. Es Jesús quien nos siembra, nos cultiva,
nos cosecha, nos tritura, nos amasa, y nos hace un solo pan
consagrado a Dios. Somos granos de trigo que, unidos
formamos el pan de la comunión que es comunidad. Para
esto, cada uno debe morir a sus egoísmos y preferencias.
Morir a sí mismo tiene sentido cristiano, sólo si es para
trabajar unidos y en la misión de Cristo, la cual es salvación
del mundo y construcción del Reino de Dios.
