إنجيل القدّيس متّى11/من25حتى30/تَعَالَوا إِليَّ يَا جَمِيعَ المُتْعَبِينَ والمُثْقَلِينَ بِالأَحْمَال، وأَنَا أُريْحُكُم. إِحْمِلُوا نِيْري عَلَيْكُم، وكُونُوا لي تَلاميذ، لأَنِّي وَدِيعٌ ومُتَواضِعُ القَلْب
“قالَ الربُّ يَسوعُ: «أَعْتَرِفُ لَكَ، يَا أَبَتِ، رَبَّ السَّمَاءِ والأَرْض، لأَنَّكَ أَخْفَيْتَ هذِهِ الأُمُورَ عَنِ الحُكَمَاءِ والفُهَمَاء، وأَظْهَرْتَها لِلأَطْفَال!نَعَمْ، أَيُّها الآب، لأَنَّكَ هكَذَا ٱرْتَضَيْت! لَقَدْ سَلَّمَنِي أَبي كُلَّ شَيء، فَمَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ يَعْرِفُ ٱلٱبْنَ إِلاَّ الآب، ومَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ يَعْرِفُ الآبَ إِلاَّ ٱلٱبْن، ومَنْ يُرِيدُ ٱلٱبْنُ أَنْ يُظْهِرَهُ لَهُ. تَعَالَوا إِليَّ يَا جَمِيعَ المُتْعَبِينَ والمُثْقَلِينَ بِالأَحْمَال، وأَنَا أُريْحُكُم. إِحْمِلُوا نِيْري عَلَيْكُم، وكُونُوا لي تَلاميذ، لأَنِّي وَدِيعٌ ومُتَواضِعُ القَلْب، فَتَجِدُوا رَاحَةً لِنُفُوسِكُم. أَجَل، إِنَّ نِيْري لَيِّن، وحِمْلي خَفِيف!».
رسالة القدّيس بولس إلى أهل غلاطية03/من07حتى14/مَلْعُونٌ كُلُّ مَنْ لا يَثْبُتُ عَلى العَمَلِ بكُلِّ مَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ في الشَّرِيعَة
“يا إِخوَتِي، إِعْلَمُوا إِذًا أَنَّ الَّذِينَ هُمْ مِنَ الإيْمَانِ هُمْ أَبْنَاءُ إِبرَاهِيم. وَبِمَا أَنَّ الكِتَابَ سَبَقَ فرَأَى أَنَّ اللهَ سيُبَرِّرُ الأُمَمَ بالإِيْمَان، سَبَقَ فبَشَّرَ إِبْراهِيمَ قائِلاً: «فِيكَ تَتَبَارَكُ جَمِيعُ الأُمَم».إِذًا فالَّذِينَ هُمْ مِنَ الإِيْمَانِ يتَبَارَكُونَ مَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ المُؤْمِن. فجَميعُ الَّذِينَ هُمْ مِنْ أَعْمَالِ الشَّرِيعَةِ هُم تَحْتَ اللَّعْنَة، لأَنَّهُ مَكْتُوب: «مَلْعُونٌ كُلُّ مَنْ لا يَثْبُتُ عَلى العَمَلِ بكُلِّ مَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ في الشَّرِيعَة!». ووَاضِحٌ أَنَّهُ مَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ يُبَرَّرُ بِالشَّرِيعَةِ أَمَامَ الله، لأَنَّ «البَارَّ بالإِيْمَانِ يَحْيَا». ولَيْسَتِ الشَّرِيعَةُ مِنَ الإِيْمَان، بَلْ إِنَّ «مَنْ يَعْمَلُ بِأَحْكَامِ الشَّرِيعَةِ يَحْيَا بِهَا». فَالمَسِيحُ ٱفْتَدَانَا مِنْ لَعْنَةِ الشَّرِيعَة، إِذْ صَارَ لَعْنَةً مِنْ أَجْلِنَا، لأَنَّهُ مَكْتُوب: «مَلْعُونٌ كُلُّ مَنْ عُلِّقَ عَلى خَشَبَة!».
وذَلِكَ لِكَيْ تَصِيرَ بَرَكَةُ إِبْرَاهيمَ إِلى الأُمَمِ في المَسِيحِ يَسُوع، فَنَنَالَ بِالإِيْمَانِ الرُّوحَ المَوعُودَ بِهِ”.
Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 11/25-30: ‘I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and the intelligent and have revealed them to infants; yes, Father, for such was your gracious will. All things have been handed over to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him. ‘Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.’”
Cursed is everyone who does not observe and obey all the things written in the book of the law.’
Letter to the Galatians 03/07-14: “So, you see, those who believe are the descendants of Abraham. And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, declared the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, ‘All the Gentiles shall be blessed in you.’ For this reason, those who believe are blessed with Abraham who believed. For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse; for it is written, ‘Cursed is everyone who does not observe and obey all the things written in the book of the law.’Now it is evident that no one is justified before God by the law; for ‘The one who is righteous will live by faith.’But the law does not rest on faith; on the contrary, ‘Whoever does the works of the law will live by them.’Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us for it is written, ‘Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree’in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.”
