Relection on Sunday’s Readings

November 19, 2017 The responsibility of talent

First Reading (Prov 31:10-13.19-20.30-31). This is a poem in praise of the ideal wife. Even though it implies that a woman’s place is in the home, nevertheless, it is a noble tribute to womanhood. By today’s standards the woman would hardly be called a talented person. Yet she is held up as a model of someone who uses her talents to live an industrious and virtuous life.

Second Reading (1 Thess 5:1-6). Paul had assured the Thessalonians of the certainty of Christ’s coming. It seems that the community had speculated as to exactly when that would happen. Paul tells them that he himself doesn’t know that. All he can tell them is that it will happen unexpectedly. He impresses on them the need to be always ready lest they be caught unawares.

Gospel (Mt 25:14-30). The parable of the talents is another extract from Mahew’s Eschatological Sermon (24:1-25:46). Mahew has accepted that the Parousia would be delayed. Since the day of the Lord’s coming is unknown, he stresses the necessity of being watchful. In the parable of the talents he spells out what this watchfulness consists in: it consists in carrying out the Lord’s instrucons to the best of one’s God-given ability. The first two servants are congratulated and rewarded for their enterprise and fidelity. Though their responsibility had been unequal, their reward is the same. What maers is not accomplishment, but wholehearted commitment. The third servant receives blame and condemnaon-because he has done nothing. Instead of blaming himself, the servant blames his master, calling him ‘a hard man’. In the parable we are dealing with man’s response to God’s gi. Mahew seems to present God as a stern taskmaster. The parable is meant as a warning to the lazy and inacve to shape up lest he lose everything. The warning is an expression of love and concern. Page Six 33rd Ordinary Sunday November 19, 2017
