Friends of the Rosary,
As Christ Jesus was entering a city called Nain, near Nazareth, a large crowd was accompanied in a burial procession by a man who had died. His mother was a widow who had only this son.
This death was a disaster for a widow since it eliminated any income for making a living.
Jesus was moved with pity — as Luke tells us (Lk 7:11-1) in today’s reading — and said to her: “Do not weep.”
Then, he touched the coffin and said, “Young man, I tell you, arise!”
The dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him to his mother. The crowd recognized that Jesus was a prophet of God.
This passage anticipates Christ’s Resurrection. Jesus is the God of the living who hates the ways of death, and his sacred heart is moved with pity.
Ave Maria!
Jesus, I Trust In You!
Come, Holy Spirit, come!
To Jesus through Mary!
