This is How the godless Think
Published 2 years, 2 months ago
Description
The first reading brings us a text from the Old Testament book of Wisdom. It is difficult to read because these lines are a prophecy of what the scheming Jews were thinking and going to do with Jesus. At the end of the day, they reason maliciously. They intuit who Jesus is, and that He is divine, but because of envy, they want to test whether Jesus is truly able to be what He claims to be. Because God respects our freedom, He does not thwart their plot to murder the Son of Man.
