    Oct 30, 2026. Gospel: Matt 22:15-21. Feria of the Twent-Second Sunday after Pentecost.

    15 Then the Pharisees going, consulted among themselves how to insnare him in his speech. Tunc abeuntes pharisaei, consilium inierunt ut caperent eum in sermone.  16 And they sent to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying: Master, we know that thou art a true speaker, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou dost not regard the person of men. Et mittunt ei discipulos suos cum Herodianis, dicentes : Magister, scimus quia verax es, et viam Dei in veritate doces, et non est tibi cura de aliquo : non enim respicis personam hominum :  17 Tell us therefore what dost thou think, is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not? dic ergo nobis quid tibi videtur, licet censum dare Caesari, an non?  18 But Jesus knowing their wickedness, said: Why do you tempt me, ye hypocrites? Cognita autem Jesus nequitia eorum, ait : Quid me tentatis hypocritae?  19 Shew me the coin of the tribute. And they offered him a penny. Ostendite mihi numisma census. At illi obtulerunt ei denarium.  20 And Jesus saith to them: Whose image and inscription is this? Et ait illis Jesus : Cujus est imago haec, et superscriptio?  21 They say to him: Caesar's. Then he saith to them: Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's; and to God, the things that are God's. Dicunt ei : Caesaris. Tunc ait illis : Reddite ergo quae sunt Caesaris, Caesari : et quae sunt Dei, Deo. [16] "The Herodians": That is, some that belonged to Herod, and that joined with him in standing up for the necessity of paying tribute to Caesar, that is, to the Roman emperor. Some are of opinion that there was a sect among the Jews called Herodians, from their maintaining that Herod was the Messias.

    Oct 28, 2026. Gospel: John 15:17-25. Ss Simon and Jude, Apostles

    17 These things I command you, that you love one another. Haec mando vobis : ut diligatis invicem.  18 If the world hate you, know ye, that it hath hated me before you. Si mundus vos odit, scitote quia me priorem vobis odio habuit.  19 If you had been of the world, the world would love its own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. Si de mundo fuissetis, mundus quod suum erat diligeret : quia vero de mundo non estis, sed ego elegi vos de mundo, propterea odit vos mundus.  20 Remember my word that I said to you: The servant is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you: if they have kept my word, they will keep yours also. Mementote sermonis mei, quem ego dixi vobis : non est servus major domino suo. Si me persecuti sunt, et vos persequentur; si sermonem meum servaverunt, et vestrum servabunt.  21 But all these things they will do to you for my name's sake: because they know not him who sent me. Sed haec omnia facient vobis propter nomen meum : quia nesciunt eum qui misit me.  22 If I had not come, and spoken to them, they would not have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. Si non venissem, et locutus fuissem eis, peccatum non haberent : nunc autem excusationem non habent de peccato suo.  23 He that hateth me, hateth my Father also. Qui me odit, et Patrem meum odit.  24 If I had not done among them the works that no other man hath done, they would not have sin; but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father. Si opera non fecissem in eis quae nemo alius fecit, peccatum non haberent : nunc autem et viderunt, et oderunt et me, et Patrem meum.  25 But that the word may be fulfilled which is written in their law: They hated me without cause. Sed ut adimpleatur sermo, qui in lege eorum scriptus est : Quia odio habuerunt me gratis. The holy Apostle Simon was a Cananean. He was called Zelotes (the Zealot). Jude Thaddeus was a brother of St James the Less, a cousin to Jesus. He was called Lebbeus (the Courageous), They preached the Gospel, Simon in Egypt and Jude in Mespopotamia. They both were martyred in Persia in the first century. St Jude wrote a short Epistle exhorting the faithful to beware of heretics.

    Oct 27, 2026. Gospel: John 18:33-37. Feria. Vigil of St Simon and Jude.

    Pilate therefore went into the hall again, and called Jesus, and said to him: Art thou the king of the Jews? Introivit ergo iterum in praetorium Pilatus : et vocavit Jesum, et dixit ei : Tu es rex Judaeorum?  34 Jesus answered: Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or have others told it thee of me? Respondit Jesus : A temetipso hoc dicis, an alii dixerunt tibi de me?  35 Pilate answered: Am I a Jew? Thy own nation, and the chief priests, have delivered thee up to me: what hast thou done? Respondit Pilatus : Numquid ego Judaeus sum? gens tua et pontifices tradiderunt te mihi : quid fecisti?  36 Jesus answered: My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would certainly strive that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now my kingdom is not from hence. Respondit Jesus : Regnum meum non est de hoc mundo. Si ex hoc mundo esset regnum meum, ministri mei utique decertarent ut non traderer Judaeis : nunc autem regnum meum non est hinc.  37 Pilate therefore said to him: Art thou a king then? Jesus answered: Thou sayest that I am a king. For this was I born, and for this came I into the world; that I should give testimony to the truth. Every one that is of the truth, heareth my voice. Dixit itaque ei Pilatus : Ergo rex es tu? Respondit Jesus : Tu dicis quia rex sum ego. Ego in hoc natus sum, et ad hoc veni in mundum, ut testimonium perhibeam veritati : omnis qui est ex veritate, audit vocem meam.

    33 Pilate therefore went into the hall again, and called Jesus, and said to him: Art thou the king of the Jews?

  7. 6d ago

    Oct 24, 2026. Gospel: John 5:1-4. St Raphael, Archangel.

    1 After these things was a festival day of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Post haec erat dies festus Judaeorum, et ascendit Jesus Jerosolymam.  2 Now there is at Jerusalem a pond, called Probatica, which in Hebrew is named Bethsaida, having five porches. Est autem Jerosolymis probatica piscina, quae cognominatur hebraice Bethsaida, quinque porticus habens.  3 In these lay a great multitude of sick, of blind, of lame, of withered; waiting for the moving of the water. In his jacebat multitudo magna languentium, caecorum, claudorum, aridorum, exspectantium aquae motum.  4 And an angel of the Lord descended at certain times into the pond; and the water was moved. And he that went down first into the pond after the motion of the water, was made whole, of whatsoever infirmity he lay under. Angelus autem Domini descendebat secundum tempus in piscinam, et movebatur aqua. Et qui prior descendisset in piscinam post motionem aquae, sanus fiebat a quacumque detinebatur infirmitate. [2] "Probatica": That is, the sheep pond; either so called, because the sheep were washed therein, that were to be offered up in sacrifice in the temple, or because it was near the sheep gate. That this was a pond where miracles were wrought is evident from the sacred text; and also that the water had no natural virtue to heal, as one only of those put in after the motion of the water was restored to health; for if the water had the healing quality, the others would have the like benefit, being put into it about the same time.Benedict XV extended to the Universal Church the Feast of the holy Archangel St Raphael. He is known to us from the inspired words of the Book of Tobias, or Tobit. He is the angelical physician of soul and body.

    Oct 23, 2026. Gospel: Matt 24:42-47. St Anthony Mary Claret, Bishop, Confessor

    42 Watch ye therefore, because ye know not what hour your Lord will come. Vigilate ergo, quia nescitis qua hora Dominus vester venturus sit.  43 But know this ye, that if the goodman of the house knew at what hour the thief would come, he would certainly watch, and would not suffer his house to be broken open. Illud autem scitote, quoniam si sciret paterfamilias qua hora fur venturus esset, vigilaret utique, et non sineret perfodi domum suam.  44 Wherefore be you also ready, because at what hour you know not the Son of man will come. Ideo et vos estote parati : quia qua nescitis hora Filius hominis venturus est.  45 Who, thinkest thou, is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath appointed over his family, to give them meat in season. Quis, putas, est fidelis servus, et prudens, quem constituit dominus suus super familiam suam ut det illis cibum in tempore?  46 Blessed is that servant, whom when his lord shall come he shall find so doing. Beatus ille servus, quem cum venerit dominus ejus, invenerit sic facientem.  47 Amen I say to you, he shall place him over all his goods. Amen dico vobis, quoniam super omnia bona sua constituet eum. Anthony Mary Claret founded the Missionary Sons of the Heat of Mary. He also founded the Teaching Sisters of Mary Immaculate, and other communities of nuns. For many years he laboured in Catalonia. He laboured for six years in Cuba as Archbishop of Santiago. He also laboured in Madrid. He died in exile in France in 1870 because of the political upheavals in Spain and the hostility his religious work attracted.
