Background on the Gospel Reading (Loyola Press)

3rd Sunday of Lent On this Sunday and the next two Sundays, we break from reading the Gospel of Matthew to read from John’s Gospel. The Gospel of John is the only Gospel not assigned to a particular liturgical year. Instead, readings from John’s Gospel are interspersed throughout our three-year liturgical cycle. In today’s Gospel, the dialogue between Jesus and a woman from Samaria is among the most lengthy and most theological found in Scripture.

The most startling aspect of the conversation is that it happens at all. Jesus, an observant Jew of that time, was expected to avoid conversation with women in public. The animosity between the Jews and the Samaritans should have prevented the conversation as well. The woman herself alludes to the break from tradition: “How can you, a Jew, ask me, a Samaritan woman, for a drink?” Yet Jesus not only converses with the woman, he also asks to share her drinking vessel, an action that makes him unclean according to Jewish law. The initial conversation between Jesus and the woman is better understood if we consider the importance of water, especially in the climate of Israel. At first, the woman understands Jesus’ promise of “living water” in a literal sense: “Sir, give me this water, so that I may not be thirsty or have to keep coming here to draw water.” With no running water, the daily trip to the well by the women of the community was of paramount importance. The women of the town would have traveled to the well in the early morning, but this woman came to the well at noon, the hottest time of the day. The timing of her visit is a clear sign that she is an outcast within the Samaritan community. We learn in her conversation with Jesus that she is an outcast because of her “many husbands.” Behind the conversation lies the animosity and rivalry between the Jews and the Samaritans. Samaritans shared Jewish ancestry, but Samaritans had intermarried with foreigners when they lived under the rule of the Assyrians. Samaritan religion included worship of Yahweh, but was also influenced by the worship of other gods. When the Jews refused Samaritan help in the building of the Temple at Jerusalem, the Samaritans eventually built a temple for themselves at Mt. Gerizim (the same mountain mentioned by the woman at the well). Like the Jews, the Samaritans believed that a Messiah would come. The high point of the conversation is when Jesus reveals himself to her as the Messiah. His answer to the Samaritan woman’s questions about worship is meant to predict a time when worshiping in truth and spirit will become the way to worship. After the conversation, the Samaritan woman becomes a disciple. Even though she is an outcast and not a Jew, she returns to her town to lead others to Jesus and to wonder whether she has found the Messiah. The Samaritan townspeople return with her to meet Jesus for themselves, and many are said to come to believe in him. The significance of the encounter between Jesus and the Samaritan woman has many levels. The first is personal: The woman is herself converted to belief in Jesus as Messiah because he knows her sin but speaks with her just the same. The second is social: Having come to know Jesus as the Messiah, the Samaritan woman becomes an evangelist to her own people. The third level of the story is educational: Jesus uses his encounter with the Samaritan woman to teach his disciples that God’s mercy is without limit. The disciples return from their shopping quite confused to find Jesus talking with a Samaritan, and a woman at that! But the conversion of the Samaritan townspeople is a foretaste of the kind of open community that will be created among those who believe that Jesus is the Messiah.

REFLECTIONS FOR THE 3rd SUNDAY OF LENT by Fr. Antony Kadavil

Introduction: All three of today's readings speak of God’s mercy and compassion in disciplining His children

with occasional punishment while giving them another chance despite their repeated sins. Although God’s love

for us is constant and consistent, He will not save us without our co-operation. That is why He invites us during

Lent to repent of our sins and to renew our lives by producing fruits of love, compassion, forgiveness, and

faithful service.

LIFE MESSAGES:

(1) We need to live lives of repentance, a) because we never know when we will meet a tragedy of our own. Let us repent while we

have the chance. Let us turn to Christ, acknowledge our faults and failings and receive from him mercy, forgiveness and the

promise of eternal life. There is no better way to take these words of Jesus to heart than to go to sacramental confession, and there

is no better time to go to confession than during Lent. We are unable to predict when a tragic accident may happen to us. Our end

may come swiftly – without warning and without giving us an opportunity to repent; (b) because repentance helps us in life and in

death. It helps us to live as forgiven people and helps us to face death without fear. When we repent, we are saying: "I've been

going in the wrong direction – I must turn my life around." Repentance begins with an admission of our sin and inadequacy. We

cannot see Jesus in all his fullness unless we look at Him through the lens of repentance. Scripture says repentance results in

forgiveness, renewal, and redirection. Repentance is a statement of regret for the inner condition of our souls, with a

determination to have that condition changed.

(2) We need to be fruitful trees in God’s orchard. Lent is an ideal time "to dig around and manure" the tree of our life so that it may

bring forth fruits. The “fruits” God expects from us during Lent are repentance, renewal of life and the resulting virtues of love,

compassion, mercy, forgiveness, selflessness and humble service. Let us start producing these fruits in the family by becoming

more sensitive to the feelings of others and by accepting each member of the family with love and respect. The Christian fruit of

reconciliation will grow in the family when each member shows good will by forgiving others and by asking their forgiveness. We

become fruit-bearing in the community by caring for the poor, the sick, the little ones, the old, and the lonely.

(3) We need to make the best use of the "second chances" God gives us. Our merciful Father always gives us a second chance. The

prodigal son, returning to the father, was welcomed as a son, not treated as a slave. The repentant Peter was made the head of the

Church. The persecutor Paul was made the apostle to the Gentiles. During Lent, we, too, are given another chance to repent and

return to our Heavenly Father’s love. We are also expected to give others another chance when they ask our forgiveness. God

would like to use each one of us as the “gardener” in the parable to help Him cultivate our families and communities and enrich

them with grace. Let us thank God for using others to help us bear fruit. Grace is everywhere. Let us always cooperate with

grace, especially during Lent.

ON BLESSED AND CURSED CONSCIOUSNESS by Ron Rolheiser

There’s a Buddhist parable that runs something like this: One day as the Buddha was sitting under a tree, a young, trim soldier walked by, looked at the Buddha, noticed his weight and his fat, and said: “You look like a pig!” The Buddha looked up calmly at the soldier and said: “And you look like God!” Taken aback by the comment, the soldier asked the Buddha: “Why do you say that I look like God?” The Buddha replied: “Well, we don’t really see what’s outside of ourselves, we see what’s inside of us and project it out. I sit under this tree all day and I think about God, so that when I look out, that’s what I see. And you, you must be thinking about other things!” There’s an axiom in philosophy that asserts that the way we perceive and judge is deeply influenced and coloured by our own interiority. That’s why it’s never possible to be fully objective and that’s why five people can witness the same event, see the same thing, and have five very different versions of what happened. Thomas Aquinas expressed this in a famous axiom: Whatever is received is received according to the mode of its receiver. If this is true, and it is, then, as the Buddhist parable suggests, how we perceive others speaks volumes about what’s going on inside of us. Among other things, it indicates whether we are operating out of a blessed or a cursed consciousness. Let’s begin with the positive, a blessed consciousness: We see this in Jesus, in how he perceived and in how he judged. His was a blessed consciousness. As the gospels describe it, at his baptism, the heavens opened and God’s voice was heard to say: “This is my blessed one, in whom I take delight.” And, it seems, for the rest of his life Jesus was always in some way conscious of his Father saying that to him: “You are my blessed one!” As a consequence, he was able to look out at the world and say: “Blessed are you when you are poor, or when you are persecuted, or suffering in any way. You are always blessed, no matter your circumstance in life.” He knew his own blessedness, felt it, and, because of that, could operate out of a blessed consciousness, a consciousness that could look out and see others and the world as blessed. Sadly, for many of us, the opposite is true: We perceive others and the world not through a blessed consciousness but through a cursed consciousness. We have been cursed and because of that, in whatever subtle ways, we curse others. What’s a curse? A curse is not the colourful language that comes out of our mouths when we get stuck in traffic or when we slice our golf ball the wrong way. What we say then may be in bad taste and highly profane, but it’s not a curse. A curse is more pernicious. Cursing is what we do when we look at someone whom we don’t like and think or say: “I wish you weren’t here! I hate your presence! I wish you’d go away!” Cursing is what we do when we affronted by the joyous screams of a child and we say: “Shut up! Don’t irritate me!” Cursing is what we do when we look at someone and think or say: “What an idiot! What a jerk!” Cursing is what we do whenever we look at another person judgmentally and think or say: “Who do you think you are! You think you’re an artist! You think you’ve got talent! You don’t, you’re full of yourself!” Notice in each of these examples that what is being said is the antithesis of what the Father said to Jesus’ at his baptism: “You are my blessed one, in you I take delight!” If any of us could play back our lives as a video we would see the countless times, especially when we were young, when we were subtly cursed, when we heard or intuited the words: Shut up! Who do you think you are! Go away! You aren’t wanted here! You’re not that important! You’re stupid! You’re full of yourself! All of these were times when our energy and enthusiasm were perceived as a threat and we were, in effect, shut down. And the residual result in us is shame, depression, and a cursed consciousness. Unlike Jesus we don’t see others and the world as blessed. Instead, like the young soldier looking at an overweight Buddha under a tree, our spontaneous judgments are swift and lethal: “You look like a pig!” Whatever is received is received according to the mode its receiver. Our harsh judgments of others say less about them than they say about us. Our negativity about others and the world speaks mostly of how bruised and wounded, ashamed and depressed, we are – and how little we ourselves have ever heard anyone say to us: “In you I take delight!
