SUMMARY:29th Sunday in Ordinary Time
DESCRIPTION:WHOSE LIKENESS AND INSCRIPTION IS THIS?\nFrom a commentary by Lawrence of Brindisi1\n◊◊◊\nIn today’s gospel we find two questions: one put to Christ by the Pharisees\,\nand the other put by him to them. The Pharisees’ question concerns this world\nalone\, while Christ’s has an entirely heavenly and other-worldly sense. Their\nquestion derived from profound ignorance and perversity; his stemmed from\nperfect wisdom and goodness. \nWhose likeness and inscription is this? Caesar’s\, they reply. Then give to\nCaesar the things that are Caesar’s and to God the things that are God’s. To each\, he\nsays\, must be given what belongs to him. This\, surely\, is a judgment full of heavenly\nwisdom and instruction. For it teaches that authority is twofold\, having an earthly\nand human aspect\, and a heavenly and divine aspect. It teaches that we owe a\ntwofold duty of obedience: to the human laws and to the law of God. The coin\nbearing Caesar’s likeness and inscription must be given to Caesar\, and the one\nstamped with the divine image and likeness must be given to God. We bear the\nimprint of your glorious face\, O Lord. \nWe are made in the image and likeness of God. So you\, O Christian\, because\nyou are a human being\, are God’s tribute money – a little coin bearing the image\nand likeness of the divine emperor. Therefore with Christ I ask: Whose likeness and\ninscription is this? Your answer is\, God’s. To which I reply\, Then why not give God\nwhat belongs to him? \nIf we really want to be God’s image\, we must be like Christ\, for his is the image of God’s goodness and the perfect copy of his nature\, and God foreordained\nthat those he has chosen should take on a likeness to his Son. Christ undoubtedly\ngave Caesar what was Caesar’s and God what was God’s. He fulfilled to perfection\nthe precepts of both tablets of the law\, becoming obedient unto death\, even death\non a cross\, and he was most highly endowed\, both inwardly and outwardly\, with\nevery virtue. \nIn today’s gospel the reply\, most wise and discreet\, by which Christ\nsidestepped his enemies’ trap shows his great prudence. His teaching that each\nmust be given what belongs to him\, and also the example he gave by being willing\nto pay the temple tax and giving a shekel for himself and Peter\, shows his justice.\nHis declaring it to be a duty to pay taxes to Caesar\, openly teaching the truth\nwithout fear of the Jews who would be offended\, shows his fortitude. For this is\nGod’s way\, of which Christ is the authentic teacher. \nThose therefore who resemble Christ in their lives\, conduct and practice of\nvirtues\, they are the ones who manifest the divine image; for the way to recover\nthis image is by being absolutely just. Give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s and\nto God the things that are God’s; that is\, give to each what belongs to him. \n1\nJourney with the Fathers – Year A – New City Press – NY -1999 – pg 134-135.
