    MASS SCHEDULE

    T h i sS u n d a ywe readfrom theG o s p e lo fL u k e ,

    c o n -tinuingimme-

    diately fromast week's Gospel. Recall that in last Sunday's Gospel, Jesus read from the prophet Isaiah and announced that thiscripture was now fulfilled. In today's Gospel, we learn that the people of Nazareth are impressed by Jesus' words,nd yet they seem surprised. They still think of Jesus as merely Joseph's son. They do not expect such words fromomeone they believe that they know.

    This Gospel is about who Jesus is and who people believe him to be. The story of Jesus' preaching and rejectionNazareth is found in each of the Synoptic Gospels. In Luke's Gospel, this incident is told in a way that foretells

    esus' passion and death and helps explain the inclusion of the Gentiles in the promise of salvation. In Luke's Gos-el this incident appears at the beginning of Jesus' ministry; in Matthew and Mark, this event is placed considerablyter, after Jesus has preached and taught elsewhere. Only Luke identifies the content of Jesus' teaching in any de-il, telling us that Jesus read from the book of the prophet Isaiah in the synagogue. In Mark and Matthew's Gos-els, Jesus teaches in the synagogue in Nazareth, and the townspeople take offense because Jesus is only the son ofcarpenter. They reject his authority to teach them. In Matthew and Mark, it is only after Jesus is rejected that hebserves times when Israel has rejected prophets.

    In Luke's Gospel, the people are surprised but not immediately offended by Jesus' words in the synagogue. It ise words that follow his reading from the prophet Isaiah that seem to offend them. Jesus challenges and provokese people of Nazareth by referring to examples in which Israel rejected the prophets. He also challenges them tospond to his message, the message of a prophet, in a way that is different from their ancestors. This call for a newsponse leads to his rejection.It is helpful to consider the historical context of Luke's Gospel. Luke has witnessed the acceptance of the gospel

    message among many Gentiles. He endeavors to explain why the Good News of Jesus has not been as well-ceived by his Jewish contemporaries. Luke's report interprets the cause of Jesus' rejection at Nazareth in the con-xt of this later Christian history. Just as the people at Nazareth did not welcome the Good News that Jesus an-ounced, so too many among the people of Israel will not accept the preaching of the gospel.

    After Jesus' words of challenge, Luke reports that there was a movement to kill Jesus by throwing him over a

    iff. This differs from the reports found in Mark and Matthew's Gospels, where Jesus is said to be unable to per-orm miracles in Nazareth because of the people's lack of faith. Luke says that Jesus walks away from the crowdat intended to kill him; it is not yet his time. The animosity of the people of Nazareth prefigures and prepares theader of Luke's Gospel for the cross. Luke wants all to understand that it is through his death on the cross that

    esus offers God's salvation to all.Retrieved from http://www.loyola.com/sundayconnection
