SUMMARY:Vigils Reading - 30th Sunday Ordinary Time
DESCRIPTION:OPEN YOURSELVES TO THE LIGHT\nFrom a commentary by St Clement of Alexandria1 \nThe commandment of the Lord shines clearly\, enlightening the eyes. Receive Christ\, receive power to see\, receive your light\, “that you may plainly recognize both God and man.” More delightful than gold and precious stones\, more desirable than honey and the honeycomb is the word that has enlightened us. How could he not be desirable\, he who illumined minds buried in darkness\, and endowed with clear vision “the light bearing eyes” of the soul? \n“Despite the other stars\, without the sun the whole world would be plunged in darkness.” So likewise we ourselves\, had we not known the Word and been enlightened by him\, should have been no better off than plump poultry fattened in the dark\, simply reared for death. Let us open ourselves to the light\, then…and become disciples of the Lord. For he promised his Father: I will make known your name to my brothers and sisters\, and praise you where they are assembled.\nSing his praises\, then\, Lord\, and make known to me your Father\, who is God. Your words will save me\, your song instruct me. Hitherto have I gone astray in my search for God\, but now that you light my path\, Lord\, and I find God through you\, and receive the Father through you\, I become co-heir with you\, since you are not ashamed to own me as your brother.\nLet us\, then\, shake off forgetfulness of truth\, shake off the mist of ignorance and darkness that dims our eyes\, and contemplate the true God\, after first raising this song of praise to him: “All hail\, O Light!” For upon us buried in darkness\, imprisoned in the shadow of death\, a heavenly light has shone\, a light of clarity surpassing the sun’s and of a sweetness exceeding any this earthly life can offer. That light is eternal life\, and those who receive it live. Night\, on the other hand\, is afraid of the light\, and melting away in terror gives place to the day of the Lord. Unfailing light has penetrated everywhere\, and sunset has turned into dawn. This is the meaning of the new creation; for the Sun of Righteousness\, pursuing his course through the universe\, visits all alike\, in imitation of his Father\, who makes his sun rise upon all\, and bedews everyone with his truth. \nHe it is who has changed sunset into dawn and death into life by his crucifixion. He it is who has snatched the human race from perdition and exalted it to the skies. Transplanting what was corruptible to make it incorruptible\, transforming earth into heaven\, he\, God’s gardener\, points the way to prosperity\, prompts his people to good works\, “reminds them how to live” according to the truth\, and bestows on us the truly great and divine heritage of the Father\, which cannot be taken away from us… Let us accept the laws of life\, let us obey God’s promptings. Let us learn to know Him\, so that He may be merciful to us. \n1\nJourney with the Fathers – Year B – New City Press – 1993 – pg 128.
