Message from Father Robert:

Even though we cannot physically celebrate Holy Week as parish community this year, Holy Week still goes on, I invite everyone to read and meditate on this text and see why this Week is different from all other weeks. This is taken from the Office of Readings on Holy Saturday.

“From An Ancient Homily on Holy Saturday” Something strange is happening – there is a great silence on earth today, a great silence and stillness.

The whole earth keeps silence because the King is asleep. The earth trembled and is still because God has fallen asleep in the flesh and he has raised up all who have slept ever since the world began. God has died in the flesh and hell trembles with fear.

He has gone to search for our first parent, as for a lost sheep. Greatly desiring to visit those who live in darkness and in the shadow of death, he has gone to free from sorrow the captives Adam and Eve, he who is both God and the son of Eve. The Lord approached them bearing the cross, the weapon that had won him the victory. At the sight of him, Adam, the first man he had created, struck his breast in terror and cried out to everyone: “My Lord be with you all.” Christ answered him: “And with your spirit.” He took him by the hand and raised him up, saying:

“Awake, O sleeper, and rise from the dead, and Christ will give you light.

“I am your God, who for your sake have become your son. Out of love for you and for your descendants I now by my own authority command all who are held in bondage to come forth, all who are in darkness to be enlightened, all who are sleeping to arise.

“I order you, O sleeper, to awake. I did not create you to be held a prisoner in hell. Rise from the dead, for I am the life of the dead. Rise up, work of my hands, you who were created in my image. Rise, let us leave this place, for you are in me and I am in you; together we form only one person and we cannot be separated. For your sake I, your God, became your son; I, the Lord, took the form of a slave; I, whose home is above the heavens, descended to the earth and beneath the earth.

“For your sake, for the sake of man, I became like a man without help, free among the dead. For the sake of you, who left a garden, I was betrayed to the Jews in a garden, and I was crucified in a garden.

“See on my face the spittle I received in order to restore to you the life I once breathed into you. See there the marks of the blows I received in order to refashion your warped nature in my image. On my back see the marks of the scourging I endured to remove the burden of sin that weighs upon your back. See my hands, nailed firmly to a tree, for you who once wickedly stretched out your hand to a tree.

“I slept on the cross and a sword pierced my side for you who slept in paradise and brought forth Eve from your side. My side has healed the pain in yours. My sleep will rouse you from your sleep in hell. The sword that pierced me has sheathed the sword that was turned against you.

“Rise, let us leave this place. The enemy led you out of the earthly paradise. I will not restore you to that paradise, but I will enthrone you in heaven. I forbade you the tree that was only a symbol of life, but see, I who am life itself am now one with you. I appointed cherubim to guard you as slaves are guarded, but now I make them worship you as God.

“The throne formed by cherubim awaits you, its bearers swift and eager. The bridal chamber is adorned, the banquet is ready, the eternal dwelling places are prepared, the treasure houses of all good things lie open. The kingdom of heaven has been prepared for you from all eternity.”

Mensaje del Padre Robert: Aunque no podemos celebrar físicamente la Semana Santa como comunidad parroquial este año, la Semana Santa continúa, invito a todos a leer y meditar en este texto y ver por qué esta Semana es diferente de todas las otras semanas. Esto fue tomado de la Oficina de Lecturas el Sábado Santo.

“De una antigua homilía el sábado santo” Algo extraño está sucediendo: hoy hay un gran silencio en la tierra, un gran silencio y quietud. Toda la tierra guarda silencio porque el Rey está dormido. La tierra tembló y está quieta porque Dios se ha dormido en la carne y ha levantado a todos los que han dormido desde que comenzó el mundo. Dios ha muerto en la carne y el infierno tiembla de miedo.

Se fue a buscar a nuestro primer padre, como a una oveja perdida. Deseando visitar a aquellos que viven en la oscuridad y a la sombra de la muerte, se ha liberado del dolor de los cautivos Adán y Eva, el que es Dios e hijo de Eva. El Señor se les acercó llevando la cruz, el arma que le había ganado la victoria. Al verlo, Adam, el primer hombre que había creado, se golpeó el pecho con terror y gritó a todos: "Mi Señor esté con todos ustedes". Cristo le respondió: "Y con tu espíritu". Lo tomó de la mano y lo levantó, diciendo:

“Despierta, tú que duermes, y levántate de los muertos, y Cristo te iluminará.

“Soy tu Dios, quien por tu bien se ha convertido en tu hijo. Por amor a ti y a tus descendientes, ahora, por mi propia autoridad, ordeno que salgan todos los que están sujetos a la esclavitud, todos los que están en la oscuridad para iluminarse, todos los que duermen para levantarse.

Te ordeno, oh durmiente, que despiertes. No te creé para ser prisionero en el infierno. Levántate de los muertos, porque yo soy la vida de los muertos. Levántate, trabajo de mis manos, tú que fuiste creado a mi imagen. Levántate, déjanos dejar este lugar, porque tú estás en mí y yo en ti; juntos formamos una sola persona y no podemos separarnos. Por tu bien, yo, tu Dios, me convertí en tu hijo; Yo, el Señor, tomé la forma de un esclavo; Yo, cuyo hogar está sobre los cielos, descendí a la tierra y debajo de la tierra.

“Por tu bien, por el bien del hombre, me convertí como un hombre sin ayuda, libre entre los muertos. Por tu bien, que dejaste un jardín, fui traicionado a los judíos en un jardín, y fui crucificado en un jardín.

“Mira en mi cara la saliva que recibí para devolverte la vida que una vez respiré en ti. Vea allí las marcas de los golpes que recibí para remodelar su naturaleza deformada en mi imagen. En mi espalda, ve las marcas de la flagelación que soporté para eliminar la carga del pecado que pesa sobre tu espalda. Mira mis manos, clavadas firmemente en un árbol, para ti que una vez extendió malvadamente tu mano hacia un árbol.

“Dormí en la cruz y una espada me atravesó el costado por ti, que dormiste en el paraíso y sacaste a Eva de tu lado. Mi costado ha curado el dolor en el tuyo. Mi sueño te despertará de tu sueño en el infierno. La espada que me atravesó ha envainado la espada que se volvió contra ti.

“Levántate, dejemos este lugar. El enemigo te sacó del paraíso terrenal. No te devolveré a ese paraíso, pero te entronizaré en el cielo. Te prohibí el árbol que era solo un símbolo de la vida, pero mira, yo, que soy la vida misma, soy uno contigo. Designé a querubines para que te protegieran como los esclavos están protegidos, pero ahora hago que te adoren como a Dios.

“El trono formado por querubines te espera, sus portadores rápidos y ansiosos. La cámara nupcial está adornada, el banquete está listo, las moradas eternas están preparadas, las casas del tesoro de todas las cosas buenas permanecen abiertas. El reino de los cielos ha sido preparado para ti desde toda la eternidad.
