Fifth Sunday of Lent

The Jewish people during the Babylonian exile wondered if they will ever be a nation again. Isaiah answers their

questions with this prophecy. God does not want them to be looking to the past and yearning for what was lost.

Rather God wants them to see the future as God filled. God will bring them through a new Exodus from Babylon

to their homeland. The wilderness that stretches between Babylon and Judah will not prove a barrier for them.

Pilgrims probably sang this psalm as they made their way to the Temple for the festivals. Their thoughts immedi-

ately turn to God and to the many times God delivered their ancestors out of trouble. In their mind flash pictures

of Exodus and, more recently, the return from Exile from Babylon.

Paul writes to the Philippians from the prison and tells them how zealous he was in keeping the Law, and perse-

cuting those who strayed. In the midst of persecuting he encountered the Risen Christ in an intimate and life

changing experience. What he previously valued no longer mattered, and Paul left it all “because of the surpas-

sing value of knowing Christ and the power of his Resurrection. And this enables him to look to the future in

hope.

The Pharisees asked Jesus his opinion on a case concerning a woman who was caught committing adultery, a cap-

ital offence in Israel. Jesus is not interested in legal machinations. He wants instead to demonstrate God’s forgiv-

ing love and the new life that love offers to all willing to receive it. He begins with the Pharisees. He very gently

but firmly holds a mirror before their faces, hoping that when they see themselves, they will have more compas-

sion for others just like them. And it works, to a degree. Each of the Pharisees ends up leaving quietly, Jesus then

turns to the woman. She too sees herself in Jesus’ eyes, but instead of walking away, she turns to Jesus and hears

those beautiful words, “Neither do I condemn you.” (Source Book)

Quinto domingo de Cuaresma

El pueblo judío durante el exilio babilónico se preguntó si alguna vez volverán a ser una nación. Isaías responde a

sus preguntas con esta profecía. Dios no quiere que miren el pasado y anhelan lo que se perdió. Más bien, Dios

quiere que vean el futuro como Dios lleno. Dios los llevará a través de un nuevo éxodo de Babilonia a su tierra

natal. El desierto que se extiende entre Babilonia y Judá no será una barrera para ellos.

Los peregrinos probablemente cantaron este salmo mientras se dirigían al Templo para los festivales. Sus pen-

samientos se vuelven de inmediato a Dios y a las muchas veces que Dios libró a sus antepasados de los prob-

lemas. En su mente, destellos de imagenes del Exodo y, más recientemente, el regreso del exilio de Babilonia.

Pablo escribe a los filipenses desde la prisión y les dice lo celoso que era por guardar la ley y por perseguir a los

que se desviaron. En medio de la persecución, se encontró con Cristo resucitado en una experiencia íntima y que

cambió su vida. Lo que antes valoraba ya no importaba, y Pablo lo dejó todo "por el valor supremo de conocer a

Cristo y el poder de su resurrección. Y esto le permite mirar hacia el futuro con esperanza.

Los fariseos le preguntaron a Jesús su opinión sobre un caso relacionado con una mujer que fue sorprendida cometien-

do adulterio, una ofensa capital en Israel. A Jesús no le interesan las maquinaciones legales. En su lugar, quiere de-

mostrar el amor perdonador de Dios y la nueva vida que el amor ofrece a todos los que desean recibirlo. Comienza con

los fariseos. Él muy gentil pero firmemente sostiene un espejo delante de sus rostros, esperando que cuando se vean a

sí mismos, tendrán más compasión por otros como ellos. Y funciona, hasta cierto punto. Cada uno de los fariseos ter-

mina marchándose en silencio, luego Jesús se dirige a la mujer. Ella también se ve a sí misma a los ojos de Jesús, pero

en lugar de alejarse, se vuelve hacia Jesús y escucha esas hermosas palabras: "Tampoco yo te condeno".
