NINETEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME Continuing Jesus’
words on the Bread of Life from two Sundays ago, the gospel today
tells us how the Son, the one who “comes down from heaven,” both gives
life and is life himself. Manna was also food that came from God, but
it remained food.
Jesus himself becomes what he offers: eternal
life. He is nourishment that sustains those who believe in him on the
journey from death and despair, as Ezekiel felt, to new life. This
journey is also one of discipleship. In the Eucharist we encounter
this Living Bread, both offering and the One who offers, which
sustains us to the end.
DICIANNOVESIMA DOMENICA DEL TEMPO ORDINARIO Come i
loro padri avevano mormorato contro Mose’ nel deserto, i farisei
mormorano contro Gesù. Sono sordi all’insegnamento del Padre. Se
l’Eucarestia lascia scettici anche noi, non è forse perchè cerchiamo,
nella parola e nei gesti liturgici, i nostri luoghi comuni, anzichè
lasciarci attirare e interpellare dal messaggio di Dio? O perchè la
comunione con Dio ci interessa di meno delle chiacchiere che facciamo
con noi stessi?

I
am the bread of life. Your ancestors ate the manna in the desert, but
they died; this is the bread that comes down from heaven so that one may
eat it and not die." - Jn 6:48-50
