SEVENTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
What is the “kingdom of heaven”? There is no doubt that Jesus has a passion for the kingdom and he wants us to share it. The kingdom is a central feature in his mission of teaching and healing. But it remains elusive, even baffling, like the parables he tells that both hide and reveal. Today Matthew brings Jesus’ Parable Sermon to a close with three more stories. Two of them call for decisive action while the third counsels patience. Faced with such different demands we might well pray as Solomon does for the gift of wisdom! And if we feel both daunted and yet fascinated by the mystery of it all, Paul reassures us today that our lives are in good hands. God’s loving purposes will come to glorious fulfilment.

A READING FROM THE HOLY GOSPEL ACCORDING TO MATTHEW
Jesus said to the crowds, ‘The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field which someone has found; he hides it again, goes off happy, sells everything he owns and buys the field. ‘Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls; when he finds one of great value he goes and sells everything he owns and buys it. ‘Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet cast into the sea that brings in a haul of all kinds. When it is full, the fishermen haul it ashore; then, sitting down, they collet the good ones in a basket and throw away those that are no use. This is how it will be at the end of time: the angels will appear and separate the wicked from the just to throw them into the blazing furnace where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth. ‘Have you understood all this?’ They said,’Yes.’ And he said to them, ‘Well then, every scribe who becomes a disciple of the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out from his storeroom things both new and old.’
A READING FROM THE LETTER OF ST PAUL TO THE ROMANS
We know that by turning everything to their good, God co-operates with all those who love him, with all those that he has called according to his purpose. They are the ones he chose specially long ago and intended to become true images of his Son, so that his Son might be the eldest of many brothers. He called those he intended for this; those he called he justified, and with those he justified he shared his glory.
A READING FROM THE FIRST BOOK OF THE KINGS
The Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream and said, ‘Ask what you would like me to give you.’ Solomon replied, ‘Lord, my God, you have made your servant king in succession to David my father. But I am a very young man unskilled in leadership. Your servant finds himself in the midst of this people of yours that you have chosen, a people so many its numbers cannot be counted or reckoned. give your servant a heart to understand how to discern between good and evil, for who could govern this people of yours that is so great?’ It pleased the Lord that Solomon should have asked for this. ‘Since you have asked for this’ the Lord said ‘ and not asked for long life for yourself or riches or the lives of your enemies, but have asked for a discerning judgement for yourself, here and now I do what you ask. I give you a heart wise and shrewd as none before you has had and none will have after you.

The movie reviewed this week is Irresistible.“While it may not be all its title promises, TV comedian-turned-writer-director Jon Stewart's clever political satire Irresistible is certainly appealing. Though couched in terms that put it off-limits for youngsters, his lampooning of both the cynicism underlying our current electoral system and the cultural divide separating the coasts from the heartland will likely amuse most grown-ups.” By John Mulderig.
