فجَاءَتْ مَرْيَمُ المَجْدَلِيَّةُ تُبَشِّرُ التَّلامِيذ: «لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ الرَّبّ!»، وأَخْبَرَتْهُم بِمَا قَالَ لَهَا
إنجيل القدّيس يوحنّا20/من11حتى18/:”كانَت مَرْيَمُ المَجْدَلِيِّةُ وَاقِفَةً في خَارِجِ القَبْرِ تَبْكِي. وفِيمَا هِيَ تَبْكِي، ٱنْحَنَتْ إِلى القَبْر، فَشَاهَدَتْ مَلاكَيْنِ في ثِيَابٍ بَيْضَاءَ جَالِسَينِ حَيْثُ كَانَ قَدْ وُضِعَ جَسَدُ يَسُوع، أَحَدَهُمَا عِنْدَ الرَّأْس، والآخَرَ عِنْدَ القَدَمَين. فَقَالَ لَهَا المَلاكَان: «يَا ٱمْرَأَة، لِمَاذَا تَبْكِين؟». قَالَتْ لَهُمَا: «أَخَذُوا رَبِّي، ولا أَعْلَمُ أَيْنَ وَضَعُوه!». قَالَتْ هذَا وٱلتَفَتَتْ إِلى الوَرَاء، فَشَاهَدَتْ يَسُوعَ واقِفًا ومَا عَلِمَتْ أَنَّهُ يَسُوع. قَالَ لَهَا يَسُوع: «يَا ٱمْرَأَة، لِمَاذَا تَبْكِين، مَنْ تَطْلُبِين؟». وظَنَّتْ أَنَّهُ البُسْتَانِيّ. فَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «يَا سَيِّد، إِنْ كُنْتَ أَنْتَ قَدْ أَخَذْتَهُ، فَقُلْ لي أَيْنَ وَضَعْتَهُ، وأَنَا آخُذُهُ». قَالَ لَهَا يَسُوع: «مَرْيَم!». فَٱلتَفَتَتْ وقَالَتْ لَهُ بِٱلعِبْرِيَّة: «رَابُّونِي!»، أَي «يَا مُعَلِّم!». قَالَ لَهَا يَسُوع: «لا تُمْسِكِي بِي لأَنِّي لَمْ أَصْعَدْ بَعْدُ إِلى الآب، بَلِ ٱذْهَبِي إِلى إِخْوَتِي وقُولِي لَهُم: «إِنِّي صَاعِدٌ إِلى أَبِي وأَبِيكُم، إِلهِي وإِلهِكُم». فَجَاءَتْ مَرْيَمُ المَجْدَلِيَّةُ تُبَشِّرُ التَّلامِيذ: «لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ الرَّبّ!»، وأَخْبَرَتْهُم بِمَا قَالَ لَهَا.
كُونُوا أَنتُم أَيضًا قِدِّيسِينَ في تَصَرُّفِكُم كُلِّهِ، على مِثَالِ القُدُّوسِ الَّذي دَعَاكُم، فَإِنَّهُ مَكتُوب: «كُونوا قِدِّيسِينَ لأَنِّي أَنَا قُدُّوس!».
رسالة القدّيس بطرس الأولى01/من10حتى16/:”يا إخوَتِي، عَن هذَا الخَلاصِ فَتَّشَ الأَنْبِياءُ وبَحَثُوا فتَنبَّأُوا بِالنِّعْمَةِ المُعَدَّةِ لَكُم، وبَحَثُوا عَنِ الزَّمَانِ والأَحْوَالِ الَّتي كَانَ يَدُلُّ عَليهَا رُوحُ الْمَسِيحِ الَّذي فيهِم، حِينَ سَبَقَ فشَهِدَ على الآلامِ المُعَدَّةِ لِلمَسِيح، والمَجْدِ الَّذي يَتبَعُهَا. وقَد أُوحِيَ إِلَيهِم أَنَّهُم ما كانُوا يَخدُمُونَ تِلْكَ الأُمُورَ مِنْ أَجلِ أَنفُسِهِم بَلْ مِن أَجْلِكُم أَنتُم، وقَدْ بَشَّرَكُم بِهَا الآنَ المُبَشِّرُون، يُؤَيِّدُهُمُ الرُّوحُ القُدُس المُرْسَلُ مِنَ السَّمَاء، وهِيَ أُمورٌ يَشْتَهِي المَلائِكَةُ أَنْ يَنْظُروا إِلَيْها وهُم مُنْحَنُون. فلِذلِكَ شُدُّوا أَحْقَاءَ أَذْهَانِكُم وكُونُوا صَاحِين، وٱجْعَلُوا كُلَّ رَجَائِكُم في النِّعْمَةِ الَّتي ستَأَتيكُم عِندَ ظُهُورِ يَسُوعَ المَسِيح. وكأَوْلادٍ طائِعِين، لا تَعُودُوا إِلى شَهَواتِكُمُ السَّالِفَة، كَمَا في أَيَّامِ جَهَالَتِكُم، بَلْ كُونُوا أَنتُم أَيضًا قِدِّيسِينَ في تَصَرُّفِكُم كُلِّهِ، على مِثَالِ القُدُّوسِ الَّذي دَعَاكُم، فَإِنَّهُ مَكتُوب: «كُونوا قِدِّيسِينَ لأَنِّي أَنَا قُدُّوس!».
Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, ‘I have seen the Lord’; and she told them that he had said these things to her.”
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 20/11-18:”Mary stood weeping outside the tomb. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb;and she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had been lying, one at the head and the other at the feet. They said to her, ‘Woman, why are you weeping?’ She said to them, ‘They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him.’ When she had said this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her, ‘Woman, why are you weeping? For whom are you looking?’ Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, ‘Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away.’ Jesus said to her, ‘Mary!’ She turned and said to him in Hebrew, ‘Rabbouni!’ (which means Teacher). Jesus said to her, ‘Do not hold on to me, because I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, “I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.” ’Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, ‘I have seen the Lord’; and she told them that he had said these things to her.”
Instead, as he who called you is holy, be holy yourselves in all your conduct; for it is written, ‘You shall be holy, for I am holy.”
First Letter of Peter 01/10-16:”Concerning this salvation, the prophets who prophesied of the grace that was to be yours made careful search and inquiry, inquiring about the person or time that the Spirit of Christ within them indicated, when it testified in advance to the sufferings destined for Christ and the subsequent glory. It was revealed to them that they were serving not themselves but you, in regard to the things that have now been announced to you through those who brought you good news by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven things into which angels long to look! Therefore prepare your minds for action; discipline yourselves; set all your hope on the grace that Jesus Christ will bring you when he is revealed. Like obedient children, do not be conformed to the desires that you formerly had in ignorance. Instead, as he who called you is holy, be holy yourselves in all your conduct; for it is written, ‘You shall be holy, for I am holy.”
