Latin jazz legend Paquito D'Rivera is the subject of a documentary premeiring on PBS this month called "Paquito D'Rivera: From Carne Y Frijol to Carnegie Hall." It tells his story from his earliest days as musical progidy growing up in Cuba and follows his first encounter with Dizzy Gillespie, his defection to the United States, and his unparalleled career in Latin, jazz, and classical music in the four and a half decades since. In addition to extensive interviews with Paquito, there are conversations with some of the extraordinary musicians who have collaborated with him, including Chucho Valdes, Yo Yo Ma, Anat Cohen, and Diego Urcola. He speaks with Jazz88's Peter Solomon about the upcoming film, which will be broadcast locally on Minnesota PBS at 9 PM on Monday, October 12.
Piccarda may have vanished but questions remain. The pilgrim Dante is caught between them, unable to voice them.Beatrice to the rescue! She voices what he cannot say . . . or perhaps what he is afraid to say.She articulates his two questions, makes one of them very personal, and attempts to mitigate the anger of King Nebuchadnezzar . . . or maybe the pilgrim's anger.Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as we explore the fascinating opening to the fourth canto of PARADISO.Here are the segments for this episode of WALKING WITH DANTE:[01:01] My English translation of PARADISO, Canto IV, lines 1 - 27. If you'd like to read along or drop a comment to continue the conversation, please find the entry for this episode on my website, markscarbrough.com.[03:24] PURGATORIO Canto XVIII as the background for PARADISO Cantos IV and V.[06:27] The multivalent, triplicate, opening simile--a man, a lamb, and a dog; hunger, fear, hunger--which embellishes a simile from PARADISO Canto III.[12:51] Beatrice : Daniel :: Nebuchadnezzar : Dante?[15:09] Beatrice's two intuited doubts from the pilgrim: the souls' origins and destinations, as well as the problem of coercion and the will.[20:01] The Latin in the text, the veil of the will.[22:22] The canto's opening simile again: paralysis, perhaps between women, certainly because of desire, hardly a hymn to rational free will.[26:14] Rereading the passage: PARADISO, Canto IV, lines 1 - 27.

Friends of the Rosary,Following Christ the Lord means trusting His wisdom even when we cannot understand everything.In today's Gospel (Luke 9:57-62), Jesus teaches that discipleship requires a whole, steady heart to follow him, not delay or look back.He said,“No one who sets a hand to the plow and looks to what was left behind is fit for the Kingdom of God.”Without hesitation, Job in the first reading (Job 9:1-12, 14-16) recognized God's greatness and mystery, while Saint Jerome, Priest and Doctor of the Church, and the saint of today, showed us how to love His Word more deeply.About Saint Jerome, who in paintings sometimes holds a large rock as a symbol of mortification, after receiving a fine education in the classics in Rome, he settled in a cave in Bethlehem out of an intense devotion to Christ's life. He studied Hebrew in penance for temptations. The greatest fruit of his lifelong study and writing was the Vulgate, the popular Latin translation of the Bible commissioned by Pope Damasus. He died in 420 and is one of the four great Latin Fathers of the Church.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

In this episode of The Christopher Perrin Show, Christopher Perrin reflects on wisdom as one of the chief aims of classical and liberal education. Beginning with practical wisdom, or phronesis and prudentia, he asks whether the young can become wise before age and experience have done their slow work. Drawing on Aristotle, Proverbs, Mortimer Adler, Anthony Kronman, and the older model of professors as bearers of a treasured inheritance, Perrin argues that students may grow wise by studying what is old with teachers and friends who love wisdom. He then takes listeners to the cathedral of Siena, where the medieval mosaic floor presents a journey from Lady Wisdom, Socrates, Crates, and the mountain of wisdom toward Moses, Abraham, the altar, and Christ, the power and wisdom of God. The episode unfolds the relationship between wonder and wisdom, showing how astonishment, humility, and awareness of ignorance begin the journey of philosophy and education. Perrin closes with Raphael's image of Prudence as a young woman looking into a mirror with an old man's face behind her, suggesting that the wisdom of the ages teaches us to know ourselves. This episode offers a rich meditation on Classical Academic Press's renewed motto, Wonder to Wisdom, and on the lifelong climb toward wisdom, virtue, and freedom.Episode OutlineWisdom as one of the chief ends of classical and liberal educationPractical wisdom, phronesis, prudentia, and the wisdom that comes with ageWhether the young can become wise before long experience has done its workWise friends, noble teachers, old books, and the transmission of a treasured inheritanceThe cathedral of Siena and the mosaic of Lady Wisdom, Socrates, and CratesThe floor of Siena as a journey from pagan wisdom toward Moses, Abraham, the altar, and ChristWonder as the beginning of philosophy, learning, and the pursuit of wisdomClassical Academic Press's renewed motto: Wonder to WisdomRaphael's Prudence and the need to look backward in order to know ourselvesThe lifelong climb toward wisdom, virtue, freedom, and self-examinationKey Topics & TakeawaysWisdom as Education's End: Classical education seeks more than information or novelty. It aims at wisdom, virtue, and freedom, forming students who can see and love what is true, good, and beautiful.Practical Wisdom and Prudence: Perrin distinguishes practical wisdom as the ability to know what to do in changing circumstances. The Greek phronesis and Latin prudentia both point to a kind of foresight gained through experience, mentoring, and disciplined reflection.Young Students and Old Wisdom: The young may lack long experience, but they can still receive wisdom by studying what is old. Wise teachers, noble friends, and great books can help students participate in an inheritance larger than themselves.Siena's Eucharistic Journey: The cathedral floor in Siena presents wisdom as a pilgrimage, moving from Lady Wisdom, Socrates, Crates, and Mount Parnassus toward Mount Sinai, Moses, Abraham, the altar, and Christ.Wonder to Wisdom: Wonder begins the journey toward wisdom by awakening astonishment, fear, humility, and an awareness of ignorance. A good education should preserve and deepen that wonder rather than flatten it into utility.Prudence and Memory: Raphael's Prudence suggests that wisdom requires both self-knowledge and historical memory. The young woman becomes prudent by looking into a mirror that reflects the wisdom of the old.Questions & DiscussionWhat does it mean for wisdom to be one of the chief ends of education?Consider the difference between education aimed at wisdom and education aimed mainly at information, credentials, or novelty. How would a school change if wisdom were truly one of its central goals?How can young people become wise before they have grown old?Discuss Perrin's account of wise friends, noble teachers, old books, and inherited traditions. What kinds of study, friendship, and imitation help the young receive wisdom beyond their years?Why does Siena's cathedral floor place pagan philosophers within a Christian journey?Reflect on the movement from Lady Wisdom, Socrates, Crates, and Mount Parnassus toward Moses, Abraham, the altar, and Christ. What does this suggest about natural wisdom, revealed wisdom, and fulfillment in Christ?What role should wonder play in teaching and learning?Consider Aristotle's claim that philosophy begins in wonder and Perrin's connection between wonder, fear, astonishment, and acknowledged ignorance. How can teachers provoke wonder without reducing it to entertainment?How does looking backward help us know ourselves?Discuss Raphael's image of Prudence as a young woman with an old man's face behind her.

Have an idea or tip? Send us a text!Most businesses fail to grow for a simple reason: The owner is stuck selling the obvious thing, while the customer is buying something deeper. When Kenneth Kollasch tells us what it's like to grow up inside a multi-generational ballroom and Latin dance studio, the lesson lands fast. Dance lessons were never just about steps. They were about confidence, relationships, identity, and feeling at home in a room full of people. That “hidden product” idea maps directly to the photo imaging world too, where prints and gear are really about memories and self expression.From there, we get practical about small business systems and exit planning. Kollasch works with franchise owners and stressed “mom and pop” operators who feel trapped in a daily cycle of fires. Kollasch and Gary Pageau of The Dead Pixels Society talk through how to move from swamp mode to a predictable operating system: start with a deep diagnostic of real numbers, then document the know how that's been living in your head for years. A clear playbook and solid SOPs don't just help you hire and train, they make your business less owner dependent and more valuable when you want to sell.Kollasch also reveals what buyers should look for during due diligence and business acquisition, including the team you're actually buying, how automated and repeatable the operations are, what the financial output really means, and why the seller is exiting.The Dead Pixels Society Podcast is powered by ScanMyPhotos, serving the photo industry for more than 30 years.ScanMyPhotosScanMyPhotos provides professional digitization services for photos, negatives, slides, and more Energize your sales with Shareme.chat, the proven texting platform.

St Paul I [brother: Stephen II] 757-767 Paul II [Pietro Barbo] 1464-1471 Paul III [Alessandro Farnese] 1534-1549 Paul IV [Giovanni Caraffa] 1555-1559 Paul V [Camillo Borghese] 1605-1621 St Paul VI [Giovanni Montini] 1963-1978 St. Paul I: brother to Pope Stephen II and succeeded him--the sort of thing that could happen in the premodern era. This was the era of Pepin the Frank, where the Frankish kingdom had just become the papacy's welcome bulwark against the conquests of the Lombards and the intrigues of the Byzantines, who also wished to take back control of as much of Italy as possible; at the end of the century this would lead to the crowning of Constantine as Western Emperor and the final decline of Byzantine influence, although the Lombard dukes would take longer to diminish in importance. Pope Paul I had a reputation for honor and personal sanctity which were still common in that era. Paul II: elected in the fifteenth century recovery and Roman Renaissance period following the Avignon period and the schism and wild experimental councils that ended it. His uncle was Pope Eugene II and apparently he became a priest after his uncle's election. Paul II was a big spender on building projects (probably still needed at the time), carnivals and festivals, and was a supporter of the arts. However, he also found it necessary to reign in some of the more ardent Renaissance figures of his day and closed something called the Roman Academy for its excesses toward paganism and moral turpitude. He made efforts, building on the conciliar period at the beginning of the century, to bring Russia into communion with Rome and to combat the Turks who had just conquered Constantinople; these big ideas and initiatives were, sadly, not successful. The Ottomans continued expanding for centuries to come and Russia is still very much in schism with Rome. Paul III: An aristocrat of the Farnese family, educated at Rome and Florence; knew Leo X from their youth in Florence. He was a cardinal from age 25 until his election as Pope at age 66, a period embracing the excesses of Popes Alexander and Julius/Julian and the beginning of Luther's disturbances. He was enormously influential between his intellect, education, wealth, time in the Sacred College, and diplomatic skill. Finally he was elected Pope in a time of turmoil, less than 20 years after Luther's 95 theses. By that point he was old and respected and past some questionable periods in his youth. Apparently Paul saw immediately that a new general council was needed to address the outbreak of Protestantism, but his efforts to get one started were thwarted by Holy Roman Emperor Charles V's attempts to hammer out vague agreements that everyone could accept, and even more so by the power politics of the French under Francois I. He wanted the Holy Roman Empire divided and weakened, and did not care if heresy was the means to that end. In that light it is not surprising that he persecuted Protestants harshly within France itself. This became a recurring French policy and would culminate in the Thirty Years' War that devastated and practically ended the Holy Roman Empire as a united country. Pope Paul was not immune to concerns about the excessive power of the Holy Roman Emperors who had mistreated so many of his predecessors, Gregory VII in particular, but in this he may have been short-sighted; his family were traditional Guelphs who supported the Popes politically against the Emperors. In any case Paul III did get the Council of Trent started and, like Pope John XXIII, did see its initial sessions. Against Charles V's desires, they immediately set to work on some of the key issues regarding original sin, justification, and the sacraments. Meanwhile Pope Paul had begun many reforms of the Curia and Church discipline on his own initiative that after his death were taken up by the Council. He supported many of the new religious orders springing up in this era. Many see Paul III as a Pope of towering importance for the history of the Church. Paul IV: Born of a Neapolitan noble family, brought into the Church by his uncle Cardinal Ottavino, but very attracted by the discipline of religious life. He, too, knew Leo X and was sent on diplomatic missions in his pontificate. Cardinal Giovanni, later Paul IV, eventually became a member of the priestly order set up by St. Cajetan. Because Giovanni was Bishop of Chieti, Theate in Latin, and because he was first general of the order, they became known as Theatines--a remarkably indirect reason. Protestant brigands sacked Rome in 1527 and the Theatines suffered greatly and went away to Venice for a few years, but Paul III believed they were needed in Rome and brought them back. Paul III made the future Paul IV a cardinal and employed him in reforming the Curia and in the Inquisition in Italy, where he was very strict if not harsh. Paul IV was very old at his election as pope and quite surprised by it. Legend has it that he might have refused the election if another cardinal had not announced that Charles V would veto Cardinal Caraffa if elected; in outrage at this attempt at meddling, Caraffa accepted. The Habsburgs shut the pope out of the serious issues of the era, especially the attempts at a political settlement with Protestants and issues around the succession to the Empire and forced the pope to ally with France. Unlike Paul III, Paul IV is not considered a successful pope. He promoted a very unworthy "cardinal-nephew" despite his own personal rigor; he was petty in awarding other family members with land taken from Spaniards due to his quarrels with the Habsburgs; he took probably very problematic measures encouraging harshness by Queen Mary in England and thwarting Cardinal Pole. He did take some actions toward re-establishing a Catholic hierarchy in the Netherlands and starting one in the Orient. He continued to encourage the Inquisition but at least had a reputation for being no respecter of persons in that regard, and he did disavow his problematic nephews after various failures. Paul V: A relative of St. Catherine, his family was from Siena and had moved to Rome. In many ways he was a stiff canon lawyer and a bad negotiator. He got into a tremendously bitter dispute with Venice on grounds that to modern ears sound pretty bad: Venice refused to exempt clergy from civil courts. They did also forbid transfer of real property to clergy and required civil approval of new churches. Paul V put them under interdict, which they flagrantly ignored. The Jesuits, Theatines, and Capuchins left the city, and the other clergy apparently sided with the government. Much was written by learned men on either side, such as Baronius, Bellarmine, and the Venetian Paolo Sarpi--something of a quasi-Protestant and despiser of the politics of the Papal Curia. The French and Spanish governments helped broker a somewhat distasteful compromise--certainly distasteful to Paul V. Yet Paul V was not always so intransigent. He tried to reach a rapprochement with James I in England, asking that Catholics in general not be persecuted after the Gunpowder Plot but commiserating with the monarch over the attempted assassination, but the pope was rebuffed. An interesting note: According to J. Jungmanns, The Mass of the Roman Rite, Paul V signed a decree in 1615 allowing the Mass to be celebrated in Chinese, out of respect for the antiquity and learning of ancient Chinese philosophy, recognizing it as a peer to Latin or Greek. This decree was never transmitted and acted upon, and Benedict XIV a few years later decided differently. In administering Rome Paul V was more successful. Even though he promoted many members of his family, they in general served the administration well. He also got to celebrate many of the achievements of the sixteenth century: the new St. Peter's was finished, and he canonized or beatified saints like Charles Borromeo, Frances of Rome, Ignatius of Loyola, Francis Xavier, and Philip Neri. Sadly, his reign also saw the actual start of the Thirty Years' War. Paul VI: Our first pope in living memory if we discount the preliminary discussion of the Piuses. Paul VI was a career Church diplomat, much like John XXIII and Pius XII. When John XXIII called the Second Vatican Council and then passed away a short time into its proceedings, Cardinal Montini was elected and took the long-disused name of Paul. He never publicly explained his choice in detail. It is widely believed that it was to hark back to the Apostle, far more than any kind of biretta-tip to a previous pope, although the legacy of Paul III and his reforms leading to the Council of Trent might be a distant secondary consideration. John XXIII had taken an even more disused name, the name of an Apostle, and Paul's legacy and its connection to Rome if anything makes it surprising that more Popes have not taken the name. In any case, Paul's pontificate was inevitably linked to the Council. His tasks were to celebrate and spread its messages, begin the authoritative interpretation of its statements, and carry out its intentions. In the event Paul was pope long enough to complete most of the latter: the enormous revisions to the Mass and to the Breviary or Liturgy of the Hours. He also implemented changes to the structure of the Curia in Regimini ecclesiae universae, a stream of influence on the later 1983 revision of the Code of Canon Law under John Paul II. Perhaps the final major document of the postconciliar period, the new Catechism of the Catholic Church, was not completed until 1994 and bears more of the mark of John Paul. Paul VI did not use the term "new evangelization" but made statements leading in that direction--for example, in the document Ecclesiam Suam on the Church's posture toward the modern world and in Evangelii Nuntiandi. He contributed to Catholic social teaching on the morality of economic development, especially in Populorum Progressio. In these ways he emphasized the positive developments begun during the Council. In other ways he took stands against the so-called "spirit of Vatican II" by emphasizing traditional doctrines. In Mysterium fidei he emphasized the continuing central role of the Blessed Sacrament in Catholic spirituality, and in Humanae Vitae he reiterated and put on a new, bolder, more consistently argued footing the traditions of Christian sexual morality, combating the unprecedented assault of the "Sexual Revolution" and paving the way for John Paul II to develop these ideas more fully in his pontificate. Why Paul VII, and what would taking that name seem to imply for a 21st century pope? Using St. Paul as a reference point could never be inappropriate. In our contemporary situation the primary inference, an emphasis on the missionary calling of the Church, would again be foremost. Paul could also be used as a symbol of Romanness, but the political situation for that is hard to see reasserting itself any time soon. Obviously folk would assume a reference is being made back to Paul VI and to the Second Vatican Council. This, as even this short summary shows, would be an ambiguous reference. Is Paul VI the "liberal" Pope who fulfilled the Council's promise to rescue us from the Latin mumble Mass? Or is he the "conservative" Pope who was so out of touch as to condemn contraception? Paul III is a prominent enough figure that he, too, could serve as a reference point. In that case look out for a Third Vatican Council or (if Providence is truly gracious) a Fourth Council of Constantinople. The assessment of such a cardinal choosing to call out Paul III specifically (in addition to Paul the Apostle, Paul VI, and perhaps other great Pauls from Christian history) might be that the situation is parallel to the situation Paul III inherited in this way: The conciliar movement at the end of the Western Schism did not reach a stable resolution at Constance, Pisa, or Basle, but left smoldering embers that roared up as Protestantism and required the Council of Trent to address (unfortunately after enormous lasting damage was done). Similarly, the legacy of the Second Vatican Council is clearly unresolved. That is to say nothing of the millennium-old schism with the East, although this hypothetical Paul VII might or might not choose to embrace the goal of complete reunification of apostolic, sacramental Christianity--he might well decide that the Roman communion needs to heal its own wounds before launching itself more vigorously into that quest. In any case, a reference to Paul III might imply a belief in the need for another Council to settle the liturgical, administrative, and other problems still facing the Church.
13 You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt lose its savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is good for nothing any more but to be cast out, and to be trodden on by men.Vos estis sal terrae. Quod si sal evanuerit, in quo salietur? ad nihilum valet ultra, nisi ut mittatur foras, et conculcetur ab hominibus. 14 You are the light of the world. A city seated on a mountain cannot be hid.Vos estis lux mundi. Non potest civitas abscondi supra montem posita, 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but upon a candlestick, that it may shine to all that are in the house.neque accedunt lucernam, et ponunt eam sub modio, sed super candelabrum, ut luceat omnibus qui in domo sunt. 16 So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.Sic luceat lux vestra coram hominibus : ut videant opera vestra bona, et glorificent Patrem vestrum, qui in caelis est. 17 Do not think that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets. I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.Nolite putare quoniam veni solvere legem, aut prophetas : non veni solvere, sed adimplere. 18 For amen I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot, or one tittle shall not pass of the law, till all be fulfilled.Amen quippe dico vobis, donec transeat caelum et terra, jota unum aut unus apex non praeteribit a lege, donec omnia fiant. 19 He therefore that shall break one of these least commandments, and shall so teach men, shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven. But he that shall do and teach, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.Qui ergo solverit unum de mandatis istis minimis, et docuerit sic homines, minimus vocabitur in regno caelorum : qui autem fecerit et docuerit, hic magnus vocabitur in regno caelorum.[17] "To fulfill": By accomplishing all the figures and prophecies; and perfecting all that was imperfect.[18] "Amen": That is, assuredly of a truth. This Hebrew word, amen, is here retained by the example and authority of all the four Evangelists. It is used by our Lord as a strong asseveration, and affirmation of the truth.St Jerome was born in Dalmatia, and educated in Rome, but he was soon led into the gravest disorders. He was inspried by heaven and was converted and became one of the greatest Doctors of the Church, famous for his translation into Latin (the Vulgate) of the Holy Scriptures. He retired into a monastery at Bethlehem and died in 420 A.D.
September 30 is the annual Feast Day of Saint Jerome (347–420), who was originally interred in Bethlehem, where he died. His original rock-cut tomb is inside St. Jerome’s Cave, a subterranean grotto network located beneath the Church of St. Catherine, right next to the study room where he spent 30 years translating the Latin Vulgate Bible. This church sits immediately adjacent to the famous Church of the Nativity. During the 13th century Crusades, his remains were transferred from Bethlehem to Rome to safeguard them from political conflict and desecration. Saint Jerome is buried at the Basilica of Saint Mary Major, following his death in Bethlehem on September 30, 420 AD. Jerome was a Christian priest and Doctor of the Church best known for translating most of the Bible into Latin, a seminal work known as the Vulgate. He is also the patron saint of translators, librarians, archivists, and biblical scholars. The Basilica of Saint Mary Major, Santa Maria Maggiore, is one of the four most illustrious churches of Rome, along with St. John Lateran, St. Peter, and St. Paul Outside the Walls. It is Christendom’s first Marian shrine for pilgrims. Coincidentally, September 30 is also recognized internationally as International Translation Day.

Dibawakan oleh Melpha Adelina dari Saint Peter's School Kelapa Gading, Jakarta Utara, di Keuskupan Agung Jakarta, Indonesia. Ayub 9: 1-12.14-16; Mazmur tg 88: 10bc-11.12-13.14-15; Lukas 9: 57-62.TEMPAT TERHORMAT Tema renungan kita pada hari ini ialah: Tempat Terhormat. Pada hari iniGereja kita merayakan peringatan Santo Hironimus. Ia belajar hukum di Roma,sekaligus belajar teologi. Setelah bertobat dan dibaptis, ia kemudian memilihhidup bertapa. Dalam fokus studi dan bertapa itu ia memilih berkonsentrasiuntuk belajar kitab suci di padang gurun Siria, wilayah Timur Tengah. Atas pilihan yang istimewa tersebut, Paus Damasus I lalu menugaskan diauntuk menerjemahkan kitab suci ke dalam bahasa Latin, yang kemudian dikenaldengan sebutan vulgata. Di dalam Gereja, ia dikenal sebagai ahli kitab suciluar biasa. Perkataannya yang terkenal ialah: mengetahui kitab suci berartimengetahui Yesus Kristus. Tidak tahu kitab suci berarti tidak tahu YesusKristus. Berangkat dari prinsip ajaran Santo Hironimus itu, bahwa orang yangmengetahui kitab suci berarti ia mengetahui Yesus Kristus, sebenarnya kitasedang diarahkan kepada suatu pertanyaan sederhana ini: Bagaimana orang dapatmengetahui kitab suci itu? Atau pertanyaan yang serupa adalah: Apa saja yangdapat kita ketahui dari kitab suci? Jawaban yang umum ialah, bahwa kita dapatmengetahui banyak sekali tentang isi kitab suci, dan karena itu kita dapatmengetahui banyak sekali tentang Yesus Kristus. Selama kita selalu membaca, mendengar, merenungkan, dan menghayati kitabsuci, kita mengalami pribadi Yesus Kristus sendiri. Pada hari ini kita kembalimengenal diri Tuhan Yesus Kristus, yang mengajarkan kita tentang tempatterhormat di dalam Kerajaan-Nya. Tempat terhormat itu disediakan bagiorang-orang yang berhak dan layak menempatinya. Siapakah orang-orang yangberhak dan layak untuk menempati tempat terhormat tersebut? Ketika Anda menjadi tamu yang diundang oleh seseorang, Anda akandipersilakan untuk duduk di tempat spesial, misalnya persis di samping tuanrumah yang mengundang. Seperti inilah Tuhan menyiapkan tempat yang persis disamping-Nya, di dalam kerajaan surga, bagi orang-orang yang menjadipilihan-Nya. Ada banyak kriteria yang ditetapkan oleh Yesus supaya kita dapatmemenuhi kelayakan dan hak penuh untuk duduk di samping-Nya. Salah satu syarat penting ialah yang ditunjukkan Yesus pada hari ini. Iamemanggil orang-orang yang dengan rela dan bebas ingin mengikuti Dia supayamereka tidak membatasi dirinya dengan syarat apa pun. Untuk mendapatkan tempatbersama dan di dalam Dia, seseorang cukup saja menetapkan pilihan hatinyadengan sepenuh hati. Nasihat dari nabi Ayub tentang ini ialah begini: meskipunkita dianugerahi tempat terhormat di dalam Allah, kita tetap harus taatmenjalankan kehendak-Nya, dan bukan mengikuti kehendak kita sendiri. Marilah kita berdoa.Dalam nama Bapa... Ya Bapa mahamurah, semoga melalui firman-Mu ini, kamimenjadi semakin rendah hati dan tulus dalam melaksanakan kehendak-Mu. SalamMaria, penuh rahmat ... Dalam nama Bapa ...

Delivered by Father Peter Tukan, SDB from Salesian Don Bosco Gerak in the Diocese of Labuan Bajo, Indonesia. Job 9: 1-12.14-16; Rs psalm 88: 10bc-11.12-13.14-15; Luke 9: 57-62.PLACE OF HONOR The theme for our meditation today is: Place of Honor.Today our Church celebrates the memorial of Saint Jerome. He studied law andtheology in Rome. After his conversion to Christianity and got baptized, hethen chose to embrace asceticism. In this way of life, as his focus ofattention was to study and meditation on the wisdom of God, he chose toconcentrate on studying the scriptures in the Syrian desert, a particularregion in the Middle East. For this special way of life, Pope Damasus I thenentrusted to him the work to translate the sacred scriptures from theiroriginal language into Latin, the bible version which is known to us asvulgata. He is known in the Church as an extraordinary bible scholar. Hiswell-known expression which is very familiar to all Christians that goes likethis: knowing the scriptures means knowing Jesus Christ. Not knowing thescriptures means not knowing Jesus Christ. Starting from this profound statement of Saint Jeromethat says about one who knows the scriptures knows Jesus Christ, we are quiteaware that we are in agreement with this simple question: How can people knowthe holy bible? Or a similar question would be: What can we know from thescriptures? Our common answer would be our willingness to know more on thecontents of the scriptures, and for that reason we can know more about the LordJesus Christ. This is a commitment and challenge as well for all of us. It is our common understanding that as long as wealways read, hear, meditate, and practice what are being taught from thescriptures, we actually experience the true person of Jesus Christ. Ourreadings today reveal to us one element in the teachings of Jesus. He teachesus about the place of honor in His Kingdom. The place of honor is provided forpeople who are entitled and worthy to occupy it. Who are they? When you are invited by someone as his guest of honor,you will be offered to sit in a special place, for example, right next to thehost who invites you. This is how the Lord prepares a place right next to Him,in the kingdom of heaven for those chosen. There are many conditions proposedby Jesus so that His followers can up to the standard as the chosen ones andhave rights to sit together with Him. One of the important conditions is what Jesus shows ustoday. He calls upon those who willingly and freely want to follow him by meansof abandoning their personal interests. It is sufficient for a person to makethe choice of his wholeheartedly. The prophet Job's advice for us, as he saysin this way: even though we are granted a place of honor in God, we remain obeyHis will, and never follow our own will. Let'spray. In the name of the Father ... O merciful Father, May your words todaymake us even more humble and sincere, and for this we are so grateful to Youand we promise our full obedience to You. Hail Mary, full of grace ... In nameof the Father ...

Re-emerging in Tuscany, Prato, biscotti is derived from the Latin word 'biscoctus,' which means 'twice-baked.' The double baking allows the biscuit to be dry and less perishable. Due to its durability, biscotti was stored to be eaten by travelers and warriors. Biscotti found its way to America thanks to Christopher Columbus, who had used it as food during his voyage. Today you can make or find biscotti in Chocolate Hazelnut, Honey Pistachio, Almond and Lemon Dipped in White Chocolate, Dried Cherry and Almond Biscotti, Biscotti alla Parmigiana, Peppermint Biscotti, Almond and Raisin.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 29, 2026 is: argot AHR-goh noun Argot refers to the language or set of words used by a particular group of people. // The novels were such a success that fans began communicating in the secret argot spoken by the series' characters. See the entry > Examples: “[Lenny] Bruce, born Leonard Alfred Schneider on Long Island, quit school at 16 and got his start telling jokes at a Brooklyn nightclub for $12 a week. … He developed his act in ... jazz joints around Southern California in the mid-1950s. He riffed in a Beatnik argot, and his act took on the flavor of improvisational jazz.” — Christopher Goffard, The Los Angeles Times, 16 Aug. 2026 Did you know? English borrowed argot from French in the early 1800s, although the language already had several words basically covering its meaning. Jargon, the Anglo-French ancestor of which meant “twittering of birds,” had been used for specialized (and often obscure or pretentious) vocabulary since the 1600s. There was also lingo, from the Latin word lingua, meaning “language”; that term had been in use for more than a century. English novelist and lawyer Henry Fielding used it of “court gibberish”—what we tend to call legalese. And speaking of legalese, the suffix -ese is a newer means of indicating specialized argot. One of its very first applications at the turn of the 20th century was for “American ‘golfese.'”
Welcome back, Adnavserinos, to the wild world of H.I. Marrou. This week it's Part III, ch. III, entitled The Language Question: Greek and Latin. Here the fearless French historian takes us through bilingualism in the Roman Empire, developing familiar themes and extending them in surprising directions. Sure, the Romans steamrolled militarily over all resistance in East and West, and by the time of Trajan's greatest success in 117 A.D. the Roman Empire extended from Mesopotamia to northern Britain. But did the legions take with them more than bathing, togas, and mosaics for your entryway? Did the Latin language go along for the ride, and how was it received? Surprisingly, says Marrou, Greek was never eclipsed nor canceled, and indeed Romans were all agog to master their Homer and Menander. To serious students of antiquity this is not news, but you may be surprised at the "freshness preserving" directions in which Marrou takes the argument.
This meditation is about the art of stillness and clarity. It is very much a third eye chakra meditation. In this busy world where we are bombarded with information being discerning is more important than ever... Discernment is an act of will - a place of choice, decision making and looking beneath what is obvious. We need to feel into this part of us. The word derives from the Latin to separate. So we are looking at separating the voice of fear from the voice of truth, external expectations from internal alignment, temporary from long term. In this meditation you will find yourself on a path with a fork in the road - two options within your life. How does the body respond to each path, what comes up for you as you step a foot onto each path... In this meditation we are practising the art of discernment without concerning ourselves with the outcome, training ourselves to listen to the wisdom of the body.Much loveRosanne xxTo find free resources and ways to work with me go to chakra-way.comDownload your Nervous System First Aid Kit hereTo support the podcast and show your love please click hereTo join the Slow & Restore Retreat in St Andrews on 21st/22nd November please click hereOr simply message me directly Hosted on Acast.

Why are the new English translations for the forthcoming second edition of the Liturgy of the Hours opting for unrhymed meter? Dr. Benjamin Lewis, Director of Translation Services for the International Commission on English in the Liturgy (ICEL), joins host Matt Swaim on the Son Rise Morning Show following his presentation at the Society for Catholic Liturgy conference. Dr. Lewis defends ICEL’s approach, explaining why preserving theological depth and Latin meter takes precedence over forcing rhyme schemes. He also highlights historical precedents for unrhymed hymnody—such as O Come, All Ye Faithful—and previews what clergy, religious, and lay faithful can expect from the upcoming Divine Office translation.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 28, 2026 is: fungible FUN-juh-bul adjective Fungible describes things, such as currency, goods, and commodities, that can be exchanged for something else of the same kind or value. In broader usage, fungible can also mean “interchangeable,” as well as “readily changeable to adapt to new situations.” // A dollar bill is considered fungible because it can easily and acceptably be traded for ten dimes, four quarters, twenty nickels, or one hundred pennies, as well as any other dollar bill. // Since fruits and vegetables are regarded as fungible in this diet, you are allowed a total of five servings of either or both. // Some baseball team managers set their batting orders in stone, while others prefer to keep their lineups fungible, to respond to the strengths or weaknesses of different opposing pitchers. See the entry > Examples: “... bitcoin is regulated differently from securities such as stocks and bonds. It's treated as a tradable, fungible asset whose value is determined by global supply and demand.” — Becca Bratcher, Forbes, 12 Aug. 2025 Did you know? Before expectations about the origins of fungible mushroom into mycological fantasy: no, fungible has no relation to the noun fungus and its plural fungi. The fungi in fungible is there because of the Latin verb fungi, meaning “to perform,” ancestor of both fungible and function. Fungible is considerably less familiar than its cousin to most English users, but it pops up like toadstools (sorry) in legal, technological, and economic contexts. Something described as fungible can be exchanged for something else of the same kind. For example, when we say “oil is a fungible commodity,” we mean that when a purchaser is expecting a delivery of oil, any oil of the stipulated quantity and quality will usually do. Another example of something fungible is cash. It doesn't matter what twenty dollar bill you get—it's still worth the same amount as any other twenty dollar bill. In contrast, something like a work of art (or an NFT, aka a “non-fungible token”) isn't fungible; a purchaser would expect a specific, identifiable item to be delivered. In broader use, fungible can mean “interchangeable,” or sometimes “readily changeable to adapt to new situations.”

The first chapter of Esther impresses many readers as simple background information for the following story. Taking a hint from the Jewish Targums (Aramaic translations of the OT), Ron Lindo found that there are many allusions to 1 Kings 1-10, suggesting parallels between the Persian king, Ahasuerus (Xerxes), and Israel's King Solomon. Dr. Lindo is Assistant Professor of Christian Ministry at East Texas Baptist University. His publications include Literary Allusions in Esther: A Study on the Convergence of Intertexts and Narrative. He is presently working on commentaries on Jeremiah and Esther.

In traditional education and clinical settings, anatomy is typically taught from the outside in: Latin terminology, mechanical levers, origins, and insertions. But reciting muscle attachments does not heal a dysregulated nervous system or chronic somatic pain.In this episode, host Michele Lawrence sits down with pioneering yoga therapist and author Leila Stuart to explore the shift from intellectual, structural anatomy to living, experiential inquiry. Leila breaks down how reclaiming a felt sense of our tissues and bones serves as the foundation for autonomic regulation, emotional resilience, and deep trauma-informed healing.In This Episode, We Discuss:Shifting from "Cadaver" to Lived Anatomy: Moving past textbook diagrams and objectified views of the body into somatic, interoceptive inquiry.Embodiment as Resistance: Unpacking Leila's perspective on why guiding people into their felt physical experience is a profound counterweight to modern digital disembodiment.The Learn It, Feel It, Heal It Framework: A breakdown of Leila's three-part cycle for somatic integration and how to apply it across different regions of the body.Interoception and the Pancha Kosha: How developing direct internal awareness of bones, muscles, and viscera (Annamaya) reverberates through our vital energy (Pranamaya), emotional weather (Manomaya), and inner wisdom (Vijnanamaya).Trauma-Informed Somatic Pacing: Clinical strategies for introducing experiential awareness to clients experiencing hypervigilance, dissociation, or chronic pain without triggering overwhelm.The Power of Somatic Inquiry: Why neutral, non-judgmental language during self-palpation and breath awareness changes how the nervous system receives sensation.Practical Invitations for Clinicians: Simple steps yoga therapists and practitioners can take today to embody experiential anatomy in their own bodies and clinical practices.Resources & Links MentionedLeila Stuart's Books:Experiential Anatomy: Therapeutic Applications of Embodied Movement and AwarenessPathways to a Centered Body (co-authored with Donna Farhi)Connect with Leila Stuart: https://leilastuart.com/Support the showConnect with Inner Peace Yoga TherapyEmail us: info@innerpeaceyogatherapy.comWebsiteInstagramFacebook

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 26, 2026 is: confabulate kun-FAB-yuh-layt verb Confabulate has two very different meanings. Most of the time, to confabulate is to generate a false memory by filling in memory gaps with fabrications. An older meaning, still in use, is "to talk informally; to chat." // Patients who have this type of memory disorder are known to confabulate. See the entry > Examples: "My dearly-loved sister, Marj, died suddenly one month ago at 93. ... No one else will remember the glint that lit Dad's eyes when Mom announced, 'I'm baking a batch of Mrs. Mahoney's cookies.' I can smell that molasses now. ... I miss her, and especially dread the loss of her as a companion in our treasure-trove of joint memories. Who else can set the record straight when I confabulate?" — Larry Beahan, The Buffalo News, 17 Aug. 2025 Did you know? There are multiple ways to confabulate. If you want to do it the original way, you'll simply have a chat with someone. People have been confabulating with one another thusly since the early 1600s. Today, however, the word is usually used with the meaning it took on in the early 1900s, and especially in contexts relating to psychology: confabulating in this way means fabricating memories especially to fill memory gaps. In the 2000s, confabulate is taking on a new use. Artificial intelligence that produces false output is also now sometimes said to be confabulating, i.e. hallucinating. The ultimate source of this versatile word is the Latin noun fābula, which refers to a conversation or a story, and is also the root of fabulous, as well as fable.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 25, 2026 is: tactile TAK-tul adjective Tactile typically describes something, such as a sensation or experience, relating to the sense of touch. It can also be used specifically to describe something that is perceptible by touch. // With the introduction of haptics to smartphones, receiving a call from a friend became a much more tactile experience. See the entry > Examples: “Streaming music services are great and their recommendation engines will serve up endless new tracks for listening. But vinyl records have a tactile appeal.” — Mike Snider, USA Today, 17 Apr. 2026 Did you know? Tactile has many relatives in English, from the sometimes-synonymous tangible to familiar words like intact, tact, tangent, contingent, and even entire. All of these can be traced back to the Latin verb tangere, meaning “to touch.” Tactile was adopted by English speakers in the early 1600s (possibly by way of the French tactile) from the Latin adjective tactilis (“tangible”). In light of tactile having tangere for a touchstone, its dual senses of “perceptible by touch” and “of, relating to, or being the sense of touch” are perfectly sensible. Since the advent of film, television, and touchscreens, a new sense also appears to be developing, as tactile is increasingly used to suggest that something visual is particularly evocative or suggestive of a certain texture.

Some of the earliest financial supporters of Jesus' ministry were women.Luke 8:1–3 introduces us to Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Susanna, and “many others” who traveled with Jesus and the Twelve. Luke adds a remarkable detail: these women were supporting Jesus' ministry “out of their means.”Sharon Epps, President of Kingdom Advisors and one of the founders of Women Doing Well, points to their story as a powerful picture of generosity. These women didn't simply contribute resources to a cause. They had encountered Jesus personally, received His grace, and responded by using what they had to serve Him and others.Their example reminds us that Christian generosity begins not with what we give to God, but with what we have already received from Him.Generosity Begins With ReceivingLuke tells us that these women had experienced Jesus' healing and restoration. Mary Magdalene had been delivered from seven demons, while others had been healed of diseases and afflictions. Then, having received from Jesus, they gave.“God always pours into us first,” Epps explains. “Our breath, our skills, our life, and our resources are all gifts from Him.”That changes the starting point for generosity. We don't give to earn God's favor or repay Him for His grace. We give because His grace has already been freely given to us.Everything we possess—our money, abilities, opportunities, relationships, and time—ultimately comes from God. When we begin there, generosity becomes less about meeting an obligation and more about faithfully responding to what we have received.Turning Our Attention OutwardAn old Latin phrase, incurvatus in se, means “curved in on oneself.” It describes the human tendency to turn inward and make life primarily about ourselves. That temptation can become especially strong when life feels exhausting.Epps uses the playful word “exhausterwhelmulated”—exhausted, overwhelmed, and overstimulated—to describe how many people feel today. When we're depleted, our instinct can be to turn inward and focus almost exclusively on our own needs.But remembering God's care gives us another way forward.“When we can breathe in God's care, we can resist the self-focus and actually flow outward,” Epps says. “Let His generosity flow through us, even when life feels heavy.”Generosity invites us to notice the people God has placed around us. It turns our attention outward—not because our own needs don't matter, but because God's provision frees us to see beyond ourselves.Stewarding More Than MoneyThe women of Luke 8 also remind us that faithful stewardship extends beyond financial giving.Today, women can use their resources, work, relationships, businesses, investments, experience, and influence for others' good. That might mean supporting a local ministry, operating a business with integrity, investing in ways that promote human flourishing, mentoring someone who needs guidance, or simply responding to a need close to home.“We can use our positions and relationships as part of God's work of restoration,” Epps says.God entrusts each of us with different resources and opportunities. Faithful stewardship asks how we might use those gifts in love of God and neighbor.Start With One Faithful StepFor someone who wants to become more generous but already feels stretched, the answer doesn't have to be a dramatic financial commitment. Epps encourages women to begin by remembering who they are.“You are a daughter of the King,” she says. “Pause long enough to breathe in His love and acknowledge that He's our ultimate provider. Then look for just one small, concrete way you can share.”Perhaps it's meeting a need you notice today. Maybe it's offering your time, sharing your expertise, encouraging someone, or giving financially where you're able.The women of Luke 8 show us that generosity begins with receiving. They encountered the grace of Christ and responded by faithfully using what had been entrusted to them. Their names appear in only a few verses, but their generosity helped support a ministry that would change the world. And their example still invites us to ask: What has God graciously entrusted to me, and how might I use it today for the good of others?To read more content on women and faithful stewardship, explore the special edition of Faithful Steward Magazine by becoming a FaithFi partner at FaithFi.com/Give.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I own several renovated rental properties that I bought very cheaply and hoped to leave to my family.

Friday, 25 September 2026 A summary of Matthew Chapter 22. The individual chapters of Matthew have given a broad panorama of what is going on in redemptive history. In the recent chapters, we saw that Chapter 20 was filled with hints of the transition from the dispensation of the law to the dispensation of grace. It dealt with order and propriety concerning the redemptive process, ensuring that each step is completed as the plan progresses. It also presented the truth that God has made faith in what He has done the necessary condition for man's salvation. Nothing more can be added to it, and without meeting that one condition, there is no chance of obtaining access. Chapter 21 continued that thought, dealing specifically with the object of that faith, Jesus Christ. Chapter 21 ended with the parable of the wicked vinedressers. It clearly revealed that the vineyard would be taken away from Israel and given to other vinedressers. That continued as Chapter 22 began, as seen in the parable of the wedding feast. The symbolism was that the Father was preparing Jesus as a bridegroom. The invitation was made to Israel, but they rejected the offer. Because of this, they were destroyed and their city, Jerusalem, was burned, exactly what later occurred. Therefore, the message went throughout the world, inviting anyone to come and share in the banquet. At the end of the parable, it was seen that only those who had the appropriate garments, signifying the righteousness of Christ, were welcome. All others would be cast into outer darkness. The rest of the chapter shows Israel what their true responsibilities are and where their proper doctrine should lie. What is said is directed to Israel. As such, even though the parable of the wedding feast showed that their people and city would be destroyed, it does not mean that it is the end of the line for Israel the nation. Rather, the interactions show that any future for them must include a right understanding of what is expected of them and how to appropriate their right to be God's people once again. The first note of this was the challenge of the Pharisees and Herodians concerning one's obligation to society. They attempted to trap Jesus into taking one side or another, but He gave a rightly centered third option. We live in the world and must interact with the world around us. Israel under the law still has obligations to fulfill apart from the law. Using an earthly example of Caesar, the exchange demonstrates that what belonged to Caesar was to be rendered to Caesar. What can be inferred from this is that Caesar is being used as a type of Christ. If God has determined a new path for Israel, apart from the law, they must meet that obligation. This was seen in the use of the word eikón when Jesus asked, “Whose, the ‘likeness, this'? And whose inscription?” That word is used in 2 Corinthians 4:4 and Colossians 3:14 when referring to Christ. Jesus is the image of God. The inscription that this is the case is seen in Luke 23 – “And an inscription [epigraphé] also was written over Him in letters of Greek, Latin, and Hebrew: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.” Luke 23:38 Jesus is the image of God. The inscription at His crucifixion was a sign to Israel that He is their King. God gave the law to Israel, and they were obligated to it. But God also gave Jesus to Israel. Thus, they are obligated to Him. As Jesus fulfilled the law, Israel must come to Jesus (the fulfillment of the law), thus rendering to God what is God's, both under the law and under the Headship of Christ. After that, Jesus was challenged by the Sadducees concerning the resurrection. The resurrection is the ultimate sign of Jesus' authority as the designated Messiah and representative of God. Therefore, if a resurrection was possible and to be expected based on the state of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, then it was to be expected that when Jesus resurrected, they should have understood that He was the fulfillment of the messianic promises. After that, the Pharisees had a lawyer, a man who was a specialist in the law, test Jesus concerning the greatest commandment. Jesus' response was a two-fold answer: total allegiance and devotion to God and love toward one's neighbor that matched one's love of himself. Jesus finished the exchange, saying, “In these, the two commandments, all the law and the prophets, they hang.” As seen, the impossibility of meeting these two commandments was highlighted. It thus takes the reader's mind back to the previous two encounters: First, that there is an obligation to God through the law and a fulfillment of it in Christ, to which the people are obligated. Second, that there was an absolute need for Christ because only He could adequately satisfy the demands of the law. The chapter finished with the final piece of the “need for Jesus” puzzle. Jesus asked the Pharisees, who had gathered, a question concerning the Sonship of the Christ. Their answer was that the Christ was the son of David, something exactingly seen in their Scriptures. However, they missed the important point from those Scriptures that David considered the Christ his “Lord.” In citing the 110th Psalm, it is clear that this son of David, who is his Lord, would be given the full authority of God – “He said, Lord, to the ‘Lord, Mine', ‘You sit from ‘rights, Me', Until if I should put the ‘enemies, Yours' – footstool, the ‘feet, Yours'.'” Matthew 22:44 As this is so, it is an implicit reference to the deity of Christ. This then solidifies the previous thought even further: the obligation to Israel under the law was to God, but because Jesus is the Lord incarnate, Israel has a full obligation to Him as well. Rendering unto Caesar what is Caesar's can be seen in this dispensation as “rendering unto Christ what is Christ's.” The law is not a means to an end. It is also not the final obligation for Israel. It is a part of God's redemptive plan that was fulfilled in Christ. To be obedient to the law, one must bow the knee to Christ, who is God incarnate. Life application: The chapter continues the Bible's theme of the law versus grace. There is no way around a relationship with Jesus in order to be pleasing to God. As Jesus fulfilled the law, Israel's obligation is to accept Christ's fulfillment of the law and come to God through Him. In doing so, they will be rendering their total allegiance to God, because Jesus is God incarnate. Nothing else will do. And more, for those who teach that people today must observe the Law of Moses, in part or in whole, there will be no salvation for them. If they were saved before heading down that unholy path, there will be no rewards credited to them from that day forward. God is not in the business of sharing His glory with others. We can either come to Him as He has determined, or not at all. The absolutes of the Christian faith are not negotiable because God, who cannot lie, has set them forth. “He says to him, the ‘Jesus', ‘I, I am the Road, and the Truth, and the Life. None, he comes to the Father if not through Me.'” John 14:6 (CG) Lord God, today we lift up Israel, hoping they will get Jesus right so that many will be saved before the time of trouble comes. We also lift up those who are mired in law observance instead of resting in Christ Jesus. May they give up on their path and walk the road of Jesus alone. Amen. Matthew 22 22 And answering, the ‘Jesus', again, He said in parables to them, saying, 2“It resembled, the ‘kingdom the heavens,' man, king, who he made nuptials – the ‘son, his'. 3And he sent, the ‘servants, his' to call those having been called to the nuptials. And not they inclined to come. 4Again, he sent other servants, saying, ‘You say to those having been called, “You behold, the ‘brunch, mine' I prepared, the ‘oxen, mine', and the fatted have been sacrificed, and all – readied. You come to the nuptials!'” 5The ‘also having been uncaring', they departed, the – indeed – to the ‘his field', the also to the ‘emporium, his'. 6The ‘also rest', having seized the ‘servants, his', they mistreated, and they killed. 7Having heard, also, the king, he angered, and having sent the ‘troops, his' he destroyed the ‘murderers, those', and the ‘city, theirs' he burned. 8Then, he says to ‘servants, his', ‘The, indeed, nuptial, ready, it is. Those, also, having been invited, not they were worthy. 9You go, therefore, upon the ‘through-departures, the roads', and as many, if you should find, you call to the nuptials.' 10And having departed, the ‘servants, those' into the roads, they gathered all, as many as they found, evil, both, and good. And it filled, the nuptial – reclinings. 11Having entered, also, the king, to view those reclining, he beheld there – man, not ‘having been donned, apparel, nuptial'. 12And he says to him, ‘Shammer! How – you entered here, not having ‘apparel, nuptial'?' The ‘also', he muzzled. 13Then, the king, he said to the servants, ‘Having bound his feet and hands, you take him, and you cast into the ‘darkness, the outer'. There, it will be the weeping and the ‘gnash, the teeth'.' 14Many, also, they are invitees, and few, elect.” 15Then, having gone, the Pharisees, counsel, they took: how, Him, they might ensnare in word. 16And they send to Him, the ‘disciples, theirs' with the Herodians, saying, “Teacher, we have known that true, You are, and the ‘road, the God' in truth You teach, and not it concerns You about anyone. Not, also, You look to ‘appearance, men'. 17You tell, therefore, us what to You, it seems? It permits to give census to Caesar or not?” 18Having known, also, the ‘Jesus', the ‘depravity, theirs', He said, “Why, Me, you test, hypocrites? 19You display to me the ‘coin, the census'.” They also offered to Him – denarius. 20And He says to them, “Whose, the ‘likeness, this'? And whose inscription?” 21They say to Him, “Caesar's.” Then He says to them, “You render, therefore, those Caesar's to Caesar, and those the ‘God's' to God.” 22And having heard, they wondered, and having left Him, they departed. 23In that, the ‘day', they approached Him, Sadducees (saying not is ‘resurrection'), and they queried Him, 24saying, “Teacher, Moses, he said if anyone, he should die not having children, he will affinitize the ‘brother, his, the wife, his', and he will raise seed – the ‘brother, his'. 25They were, also, among us seven brothers, and the first, having married, he died, and not having seed, he left the ‘wife, his' to the ‘brother, his'. 26Similarly, also, the second, and the third, until the seventh. 27Afterward, also of all, she died, even the woman. 28In the resurrection, therefore, which of the seven, she will be – wife? All, for, they had her.” 29Answering, also, the ‘Jesus', He said to them, “You roam, not having known the Scriptures nor the ‘power, the God'. 30 In, indeed, the resurrection, neither they marry, nor they are espoused, but like ‘messengers, the God, in heaven', they are. 31Concerning, also, the ‘resurrection, the dead', not you read the ‘having been uttered to you by the God', saying, 32‘I, I am the ‘God, Abraham', and the ‘God, Isaac', and the ‘God, Jacob'?' Not, He is, the God – ‘God, dead', but living.” 33And having heard, the crowds, they were outstruck upon the ‘teaching, His'. 34The ‘also Pharisees', having heard that He muzzled the Sadducees, they gathered upon the same. 35And he queried, one from them – ‘jurisprudent, testing Him', and saying, 36“Teacher, which-such commandment – greatest in the law?” 37The ‘also Jesus', He said to him, “You will love – ‘Lord, the God, yours' in all the ‘heart, yours', and in all the ‘soul, yours', and in all the ‘cognition, yours'. 38This, it is – first and great commandment. 39Second, also, like it: You will love the ‘neighbor, yours' as yourself. 40In these, the two commandments, all the law and the prophets, they hang.” 41Having been gathered, also, the Pharisees, He queried them, the ‘Jesus', 42saying, “What – you, you think about the Christ? Whose Son, He is?” They say to Him, “The ‘of David'.” 43He says to them, “How then, David – in Spirit, ‘Lord,' Him, he calls, saying: 44‘He said, Lord, to the ‘Lord, Mine', “You sit from ‘rights, Me', Until if I should put the ‘enemies, Yours' – footstool, the ‘feet, Yours'.”' 45If therefore, David, he calls Him ‘Lord,' how ‘Son, His' He is?” 46And none, He could Him answer – word, nor he ventured, any, from that, the day, to question Him longer.
This episode focuses on the idea that sharing stories is at the heart of any relationship. The word relate comes from Latin roots meaning "to carry back, to report, to tell." From ancient times humans have related by carrying stories back to each other. When we stop sharing the heartfelt tales of our life experiences, we can lose the essence of our relationships. Through mythic stories we learn to relate to the deepest parts of ourselves, while also reconnecting to the realm of great imagination and universal truths. Mythic tales can release us from the prison of time and carry us all the way back, past invisible thresholds, to the creation of the world and the origins of human life. Ancient people used creation tales to stay in relationship to the mysteries of nature and the hidden potentials of life. If we forget our connection to mythic stories, we can lose essential understandings of how the world renews itself and how we can be agents of creation ongoing.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 23, 2026 is: compendious kum-PEN-dee-us adjective A compendious book, research paper, article, etc. is one that provides most or all of the information one may want or require. Similarly, a person might be said to have compendious knowledge of a subject if they have a full and wide-ranging—that is, comprehensive—grasp of it. Compendious can also describe something that is both comprehensive and concise, as in “a compendious summary.” // The coveted book prize was awarded to a compendious history of environmental literature in the United States. See the entry > Examples: “For much of a career that spanned decades, he pursued the oscines, or songbirds, of the Neotropics to their habitats in the Southern Hemisphere—sketching, making compendious field notes, and amassing a vast file of images that he used as a reference tool when painting the plates for definitive books …” — Guy Trebay, The Boston Globe, 26 July 2026 Did you know? When Noah Webster titled his first dictionary, published in 1806, A Compendious Dictionary of the English Language, he used compendious to mean “short, brief, concise, summary,” as he defined it on the book's 58th page. This may come as a surprise given that compendious is now most often used to mean “comprehensive” and is applied to books, papers, etc. that are quite lengthy. But Webster's Compendious Dictionary was no more than a preparation for his two-volume An American Dictionary of the English Language (1828), and compendious traces back to the Latin adjective compendiōsus, meaning “both comprehensive and succinct.” Webster's title signaled that his debut word compendium would be useful, if not exhaustive. Today, however, compendious asserts comprehensiveness, typically without brevity.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 20, 2026 is: volition voh-LISH-un noun Volition is a formal word that means “the power to make your own choices or decisions.” Usually, though not always, volition follows own, as in “left the company of her own volition.” // Every choice I made was of my own volition and not due to outside influence. See the entry > Examples: “Believe it or not, a lot of people find worms in their birdbaths. … Some birds, most notably crows, like to give their food a good dunking before eating, so there's a possibility worms in the birdbath were left by these fastidious birds. The most likely reason is that the worms crawled there on their own volition.” — Joan Morris, The Marin Independent Journal (San Rafael, California), 3 May 2026 Did you know? When you do something of your own volition, you do it voluntarily, which makes sense—both volition and voluntary ultimately come from the Latin velle, meaning “to wish” or “to will.” English speakers borrowed volition from French in the 17th century, using it at first to mean “an act of choosing,” a meaning Herman Melville employed in Moby-Dick (1851): “Almost simultaneously, with a mighty volition of ungraduated, instantaneous swiftness, the White Whale darted through the weltering sea.” By then, however, the word had also developed an additional meaning, “the power to choose,” which is now more common.
