Eleventh Sunday in Ordinary Time
HOPE AND FORGIVENESS
There were some interesting conceptions of sin prevalent in the time of the Hebrew scriptures. There was the
belief that God punished sin immediately. Those who
suffered disease or misfortune were, therefore, sinners
getting their due from the Almighty.
Today’s first reading hints at another kind of God.
When David admits his sin, Nathan declares, “The LORD
on his part has forgiven your sin” (2 Samuel 12:13b).
Here was not a vengeful God but a merciful God. What
good news that must have been to David and those who,
like him, could be honest enough to admit their sinfulness!
Jesus is the good news of God’s mercy and forgiveness incarnate. Without Jesus, perhaps the good
news would have been too good to believe, too difficult
to imagine. But there he is in today’s Gospel, the Godman, forgiving a sinner and declaring that she is forgiven
because of her great love.
There is hope, then, for the rest
of us sinners, if only we love
enough!

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
Last week’s “Treasure” no doubt raised an eyebrow or
two with the image of the deacons scurrying through the
streets of Rome, or perhaps galloping on horseback, with
fragments of eucharistic bread from the bishop’s liturgy.
These would be dropped into the chalice at outlying celebrations, presided over by presbyters, to express unity
with the bishop, and perhaps also to remind the presbyters
that they were not free agents. The Council of Laodicea
forbade the custom of the fermentum in the year 348. Generally, one of the rules of interpreting law is that people
don’t make laws about things that aren’t happening. So, by
mid-fourth century, we have an important clue that what
had once been a Roman custom had become widespread.
Interestingly, when the Church of England (and its
related bodies) went through a liturgical renewal in the
mid-nineteenth century, they reclaimed this custom from
the mists of history. Today, it is the custom in some Anglican dioceses for a fragment of the host from the bishop’s
Holy Week liturgy (what we call the Chrism Mass) to be
carried to every parish. On “Maundy Thursday” (our Holy
Thursday), the fragment is dropped into the chalice to signify the parish’s communion with the bishop. This modern
revival of the fermentum is different from the “comingling” action we are used to, in which a fragment of
the consecrated bread is dropped into the chalice just before Communion.

FORGIVENESS
To forgive is to set a prisoner free
and to discover that the prisoner is me.
