بَلِ ٱلطُّوبَى لِلَّذينَ يَسْمَعُونَ كَلِمَةَ اللهِ وَيَحْفَظُونَها
إنجيل القدّيس لوقا11/من27حتى31/:”فيمَا يَسوعُ يَتَكَلَّم بِهذَا، رَفَعَتِ ٱمْرَأَةٌ مِنَ الجَمْعِ صَوْتَها، وَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «طُوبَى لِلْبَطْنِ الَّذي حَمَلَكَ، وَلِلثَّدْيَينِ اللَّذَينِ رَضِعْتَهُمَا». أَمَّا يَسُوعُ فَقَال: «بَلِ ٱلطُّوبَى لِلَّذينَ يَسْمَعُونَ كَلِمَةَ اللهِ وَيَحْفَظُونَها!». وفيمَا كانَ الجُمُوعُ مُحْتَشِدِين، بَدَأَ يَسُوعُ يَقُول: «إِنَّ هذَا الجِيلَ جِيلٌ شِرِّير. إِنَّهُ يَطْلُبُ آيَة، وَلَنْ يُعْطَى آيَةً إِلاَّ آيَةَ يُونَان. فكَمَا كَانَ يُونانُ آيَةً لأَهْلِ نِينَوى، كَذلِكَ سَيَكُونُ ٱبْنُ الإِنْسَانِ لِهذَا ٱلجِيل. مَلِكَةُ الجَنُوبِ سَتَقُومُ في الدَّيْنُونَةِ مَعَ رِجَالِ هذا الجِيلِ وَتَدِينُهُم، لأَنَّها جَاءَتْ مِنْ أَقَاصِي الأَرْضِ لِتَسْمَعَ حِكْمَةَ سُلَيْمَان، وَهَا هُنَا أَعْظَمُ مِنْ سُلَيْمَان. رِجَالُ نِينَوى سَيَقُومُونَ في الدَّيْنُونَةِ مَعَ هذا الجِيلِ وَيَدِينُونَهُ، لأَنَّهُم تَابُوا بِإِنْذَارِ يُونَان، وَهَا هُنَا أَعْظَمُ مِنْ يُونَان.:

بِمَا أَنَّ الأَبْنَاءَ شُرَكَاءُ في اللَّحْمِ والدَّم، صَارَ هُوَ أَيْضًا شَرِيكًا فِيهِمَا، لِيُبْطِلَ بِالمَوتِ مَنْ لَهُ سُلْطَانُ المَوت، أَي إِبْلِيس
الرسالة إلى العبرانيّين02/من14حتى18//03/من01حتى06/:”يا إخوتي، بِمَا أَنَّ الأَبْنَاءَ شُرَكَاءُ في اللَّحْمِ والدَّم، صَارَ هُوَ أَيْضًا شَرِيكًا فِيهِمَا، لِيُبْطِلَ بِالمَوتِ مَنْ لَهُ سُلْطَانُ المَوت، أَي إِبْلِيس، ويُعْتِقَ جَمِيعَ الَّذِينَ كانُوا مَدَى الحَياةِ خَاضِعِينَ لِلعُبُودِيَّةِ خَوْفًا مِنَ المَوْت. فَمِنَ المُؤَكَّدِ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَأْخُذْ على عَاتِقِهِ ٱلمَلائِكَة، بَلْ نَسْلَ إِبْرَاهيم. ومِن ثَمَّ كَانَ عَلَيهِ أَنْ يتَشَبَّهَ بإِخْوَتِهِ في كُلِّ شَيء، لِيَصِيرَ عَظيمَ أَحْبَارٍ رَحِيمًا وأَمِينًا في مَا هُوَ لله، حَتَّى يُكَفِّرَ خَطايَا الشَّعْب. وبِمَا أَنَّهُ هُوَ نَفْسُهُ قَدْ ٱبْتُلِيَ بِالآلام، فَهُوَ قَادِرٌ عَلى إِغَاثَةِ المُبْتَلَيْن. والآن، أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ القِدِّيسُون، ٱلْمُشْتَرِكُونَ في الدَّعْوَةِ السَّماوِيَّة، تَأَمَّلُوا رَسُولَ وعَظِيمَ أَحْبَارِ ٱعْتِرَافِنَا، يَسُوع، وهُوَ مُؤتَمَنٌ لِمَنْ أَقَامَهُ، كَمَا كَانَ مُوسَى مُؤْتَمَنًا على بَيْتِ اللهِ كُلِّهِ. فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ صَارَ أَهْلاً لِمَجْدٍ يَفُوقُ مَجْدَ مُوسى، بِمِقْدَارِ مَا لِبَانِي البَيْتِ مِنْ كَرَامَةٍ تَفُوقُ كَرَامَةَ البَيْت. فَلِكُلِّ بَيْتٍ إِنْسَانٌ يَبْنِيه، وبَانِي الكُلِّ هُوَ الله. وكانَ مُوسَى مُؤْتَمَنًا عَلى بَيْتِ اللهِ كُلِّهِ بِصِفَتِهِ خَادِمًا، لِيَشْهَدَ لِمَا سَوفَ يُقَال؛ أَمَّا المَسِيحُ فَكَالٱبْنِ على بَيتِهِ، وبَيتُهُ هُوَ نَحْنُ، إِنْ تَمَسَّكْنَا بِثِقَةِ الرَّجَاءِ وفَخْرِهِ.

Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 11/27-32/:”A woman in the crowd raised her voice and said to him, ‘Blessed is the womb that bore you and the breasts that nursed you!’But he said, ‘Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it!’When the crowds were increasing, he began to say, ‘This generation is an evil generation; it asks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah.For just as Jonah became a sign to the people of Nineveh, so the Son of Man will be to this generation. The queen of the South will rise at the judgement with the people of this generation and condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to listen to the wisdom of Solomon, and see, something greater than Solomon is here! The people of Nineveh will rise up at the judgement with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the proclamation of Jonah, and see, something greater than Jonah is here!

Since, therefore, the children share flesh and blood, he himself likewise shared the same things, so that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil
Letter to the Hebrews 02/14-18//03-01-06/:”Since, therefore, the children share flesh and blood, he himself likewise shared the same things, so that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by the fear of death. For it is clear that he did not come to help angels, but the descendants of Abraham. Therefore he had to become like his brothers and sisters in every respect, so that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make a sacrifice of atonement for the sins of the people. Because he himself was tested by what he suffered, he is able to help those who are being tested. Therefore, brothers and sisters, holy partners in a heavenly calling, consider that Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession, was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses also ‘was faithful in all God’s house.’ Yet Jesus is worthy of more glory than Moses, just as the builder of a house has more honour than the house itself. (For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.)Now Moses was faithful in all God’s house as a servant, to testify to the things that would be spoken later. Christ, however, was faithful over God’s house as a son, and we are his house if we hold firm the confidence and the pride that belong to hope.”
