When You Have Lifted Up the Son of Man, then You will Know that I am He
Published 1 year, 1 month ago
Description
Today's gospel teaches us the parallel drawn by the Lord between what happened to the chosen people on their long journey to the promised land and what Jesus would do for them also centuries later. To save those bitten by the poisonous serpents during their long journey to the promised land, God instructed Moses to craft a serpent on a standard so that anyone bitten who looked at it would be saved from death. Then, at present Jesus was saying that when He is lifted, we would know that He is the God who saves them from the definitive death. Find out more about it in the homily.
