SUMMARY:Vigils Reading - 16th Sunday
DESCRIPTION:A reading from \nST GREGORY PALAMAS \n◊◊◊ \nNow as the Lord himself explains\, the darnel is the offering of the evil one. \nThey bear his mark because they behave the way he does; they are seeds of his \nsowing\, and his children by adoption. Harvest time will be the end of the world\, \nfor although it began long since and continues now through death\, only then \nwill all things come to an end. \nThe reapers are the angels\, for they are\, and will be especially at that time\, \nthe servants of the King of heaven. As Scripture says: Just as the darnel is \ncollected and burnt in the fire\, so it will be at the end of the world. The Son of \nMan\, who is the son of the Father Most High\, will send his angels\, and they will \ngather out of his kingdom all evil doers and every cause of sin. \nAnd so the Lord’s servants\, the angels of God\, seeing the darnel in the \nfield\, that is\, the wicked and impious folk living among the good people\, and \nthat even within the Church\, said to the Lord: Do you wish us to go and gather \nit up? In other words: “Shall we kill them\, to remove them from the earth?” But \nthe Lord’s reply was: No\, for fear that in collecting the darnel you may also \nuproot the wheat. \nHow then would the wheat\, the good people\, be uprooted as well if the \nangels gathered up the darnel\, cutting off the wicked by death to separate them \nfrom the just? The fact is that many godless sinners who live among people who \nare upright and devout repent in time and are converted\, and learning new \nhabits of piety and virtue they cease to be darnel and become wheat. And so \nsome wheat would be uprooted in the gathering of the darnel if the angels \nsnatched the wicked away before they repented. \nMoreover\, many while living evil lives produce children of good \ndisposition\, or they may have other rightly disposed descendants. This is why he \nwho sees everything before it comes into being would not permit the darnel to \nbe uprooted until the appointed time. But he says: At harvest time I will say to \nthe reapers: “First collect the darnel and bind it into bundles to be burnt\, but \ngather the wheat into my barn.” \nThose therefore who wish to be saved from eternal punishment and to \ninherit the everlasting kingdom of God must be not darnel but wheat. They \nmust avoid saying or doing anything evil or useless\, and practice the opposite \nvirtues\, thus bringing forth the fruits of repentance. In this way they will \nbecome worthy of the heavenly granary; they will be called children of the \nFather Most High\, and as heirs will enter his kingdom rejoicing\, resplendent \nwith divine glory. To this may we all attain through the grace and loving \nkindness of our Lord Jesus Christ. To whom with his eternal Father and the \nmost holy\, good and life-giving Spirit belongs glory now and always and for \nendless ages.
