Dear brothers and sisters,
Each year we commemorate in our liturgical celebrations the cycle of the main events in the life of the Savior Jesus and we read his teaching in the Gospel, following a cycle of 52 Sundays called the liturgical year, which begins on the first Sunday of Advent. We are therefore very close to the end of this cycle, and the readings on the last Sundays of the year will tell us about the end of time. One of the characteristics of these end times, according to the Gospel, will be the reversal of situations: those who have been underprivileged and oppressed in this life will be in joy, and the privileged of this world who have lived without compassion for the less fortunate will be in pain. This is the context in which this morning's Gospel should be understood.
