SUMMARY:Vigils Reading - 8th Sunday Ordinary time
DESCRIPTION:THE DISCIPLE IS NOT \nABOVE HIS TEACHER \nFrom a commentary by St Cyril of Alexandria \n◊◊◊ \nThe disciples were to be the spiritual guides and teachers of the whole \nworld. It had therefore to be clearly seen by all that they held fast to the true \nfaith. It was essential for them to be familiar with the gospel way of life\, skilled \nin every good work\, and to give teaching that was precise\, salutary\, and \nscrupulously faithful to the truth they themselves had long pondered\, \nenlightened by the divine radiance. Otherwise they would be blind leaders of the \nblind. Those imprisoned in the darkness of ignorance can never lead others in \nthe same sorry state to knowledge of the truth. Should they try\, both would fall \nheadlong into the ditch of the passions. \nTo destroy the ostentatious passion of boastfulness and stop people from \ntrying to win greater honor than their teachers\, Christ declared: The disciple is \nnot above his teacher. Even if some should advance so far as to equal their \nteachers in holiness\, they ought to remain within the limits set by them\, and \nfollow their example. Paul also taught this when he said: Be imitators of me\, as \nI am of Christ. So\, then\, if the Master does not judge\, why are you judging? He \ncame not to judge the world\, but to take pity on it. \nWhat he is saying\, then\, is this: “If I do not pass judgment\, neither must \nyou\, my disciple. You may be even more guilty of the faults of which you accuse \nanother. Will you not be ashamed when you come to realize this?” The Lord uses \nanother illustration for the same teaching when he says: Why do you look for \nthe speck in your brother’s eye? \nWith compelling arguments he persuades us that we should not want to \njudge others\, but should rather examine our own hearts\, and strive to expel the \npassions seated in them\, asking this grace from God. He it is who heals the \ncontrite of heart and frees us from our spiritual disorders. If your own sins are \ngreater and worse than other people’s\, why do you censure them\, and neglect \nwhat concerns yourself? \nThis precept\, then\, is essential for all who wish to live a holy life\, and \nparticularly for those who have undertaken the instruction of others. If they are \nvirtuous and self-restrained\, giving an example of the gospel way of life by their \nown actions\, they will rebuke those who do not choose to live as they do in a \nfriendly way\, so as not to break their own habit of gentleness.
