The first week of November is a liturgically jam-packed week. Immediately after we celebrate all the saints in heaven on All Saints Day (Nov. 1), we remember all the beloved deceased on All Souls Day (Nov. 2). In fact, the universal Church prays for all the souls of the faithfully departed throughout the entire month of November with extra fervor and intensity, so that through the mercy of God, they may soon enter into His eternal glory. How do we understand the Catholic custom of praying for the deceased? I believe we can approach this from a few angles. First, the tradition of praying on behalf of the dead predates Christianity. It is not only ancient but scriptural. In the second century BC, the Jewish leader, priest, and heroic warrior, Judas Maccabeus, championed the cause of the Jewish nation against their Greek oppressors. After winning a battle, he offered sacrifice for the sins of the fallen Jewish soldiers. We can find an account of this in the Second Book of Maccabees,

“Turning to supplication, [the soldiers] prayed that the sinful deed might be fully blotted out… [Judas Maccabeus] then took up a collection among all his soldiers… which he sent to Jerusalem to provide for an expiatory sacrifice. In doing this he acted in a very excellent and noble way, inasmuch as he had the resurrection in mind; for if he were not expecting the fallen to rise again, it would have been superfluous and foolish to pray for the dead. But if he did this with a view to the splendid reward that awaits those who had gone to rest in godliness, it was a holy and pious thought. Thus he made atonement for the dead that they might be absolved from their sin.” (2 Mc 12:42–46)

This passage shows clearly that our predecessors in faith already had the hope of a glorious resurrection. Furthermore, in their love towards the deceased countrymen, they asked God to forgive their sins, so that the deceased may be worthy to share God’s splendid reward. Our faith tells us the love of Jesus Christ is so real and so strong that it transcends life and death. Likewise, as Christians, our love for brothers and sisters in Christ also transcends life and death. In addition, our Church is so vast that it is not only made up by the members living in this world, but it is also consisted of those who are already living in God’s eternal blessedness in heaven, as well as those who are undergoing purification in the purgatory. For these reasons, just as the saints do not stop praying for us because they already precede us in heaven, we do not stop praying for our deceased loved ones because they are no longer with us in this world. Out of our love for these brothers and sisters who yearn to soon see God face to face, we are called to offer to God our prayer and supplication on their behalf. Because of this love, God will grant them the forgiveness of their sins, so that they may soon enter into the fullness of the life of the Holy Trinity. In fact, in every Mass, after the consecration of bread and wine, we commemorate all the deceased members of the Christian family. In addition, we may also offer Masses and our own private prayers, such as the rosary, for our loved ones who passed on before us. The Catholic tradition of praying for the dead shows that in the mystical body of Christ, we are all inextricably connected to each other. The merit and love of one member has a positive impact on the whole. Our Catholic faith is so much more than the relationship between Jesus and me. Rather, it is this web of love linking God, the entire Christian community, and myself. It is precisely because of this, we have the hope that we and our loved ones will one day all be enwrapped by the never ending cycle of love of the Blessed Trinity. ~Br. Gregory Liu, O.P.
