Book of Numbers 21:4-9
1st Reading on Tuesday of week 5 of Lent
Is-serp tal-bronż
[Num:21:4] U telqu minn ħdejn il-muntanja Ħor mat-triq tal-Baħar tal-Qasab biex jeħduha bid-dawra ma' l-art ta' Edom, imma l-poplu ddejjaq jimxi,
[Num:21:5] u beda jgerger kontra Alla u kontra Mosè: “Għala tellajtuna mill-Eġittu biex immutu fid-deżert? M'hawnx ħobż u lanqas ilma; aħna xbajna b'dan l-ikel ħafif.”
[Num:21:6] U l-Mulej bagħat sriep velenużi f'nofs il-poplu u bdew jigdmuhom; u mietu ħafna mill-poplu ta' Iżrael. [Num:21:7] U l-poplu mar għand Mosè, u qalulu: “Dnibna għax tkellimna kontra l-Mulej u kontra tiegħek. Itlob lill-Mulej ħa jwarrab is-sriep minn fostna.” U Mosè mar jitlob għall-poplu.
[Num:21:8] U l-Mulej kellem lil Mosè u qallu: “Agħmel serp tal-bronż velenuż, u arbulah bħal stendard; u kull min jingidem u jħares lejh ifiq u jgħix.” [Num:21:9] U Mosè għamel serp tal-bronż, u arbulah bħal stendard. U ġara li kull min kien jigdmu s-serp kien iħares lejn is-serp tal-bronż, u kien ifiq u jgħix.
Jn 8:21-30 -- Dispute Over Who Jesus Is - Meta terfgħu ’l fuq lil Bin il-bniedem, imbagħad tagħrfu li jiena hu.
TUESDAY GOSPEL OF WEEK 5 OF LENT
--- When you have lifted up the Son of Man then you will know that I am
He ---
Evanġelju
Meta terfgħu ’l fuq lil Bin il-bniedem, imbagħad tagħrfu li jiena hu.
Ġw 8, 21-30
Qari mill-Evanġelju skont San Ġwann
F’dak iż-żmien, Ġesù qal lill-Fariżej: [Ġw:8:21] "Jiena mmur, u intom
għad tfittxuni, imma għad tmutu fid-dnub tagħkom. Fejn sejjer jien intom
ma tistgħux tiġu." [Ġw:8:22] Qalu l-Lhud: "Jaqaw se jneħħi ħajtu
b'idejh dan? Għax qal li 'Fejn sejjer jien intom ma tistgħux tiġu.' "
[Ġw:8:23] Ġesù qalilhom: "Intom minn hawn isfel, u jiena ġej minn hemm
fuq. Intom nies ta' din id-dinja, imma jien m'iniex ta' din id-dinja.
[Ġw:8:24] Kif għedtilkom jien, intom tmutu fi dnubietkom. Għax jekk
intom ma temmnux li jiena hu, tmutu fi dnubietkom." [Ġw:8:25] "U int min
int?" staqsewh. Weġibhom Ġesù: "Dak li ili ngħidilkom sa mill-bidu.
[Ġw:8:26] Għandi ħafna xi ngħid fuqkom u x'nikkundanna fikom; iżda dak
li bagħatni jgħid il-verità, u jiena ngħid lid-dinja dak li smajt
mingħandu." [Ġw:8:27] Huma ma ntebħux li kien qiegħed ikellimhom fuq
il-Missier.
[Ġw:8:28] Għalhekk Ġesù qalilhom: "Meta terfgħu 'l fuq lil Bin
il-bniedem, mbagħad tagħrfu li jiena hu u li minn rajja ma nagħmel xejn,
imma li nitkellem skont ma għallimni l-Missier. [Ġw:8:29] U min
bagħatni huwa miegħi, ma telaqnix waħdi, għax jiena dejjem nagħmel dak
li jogħġob lilu." [Ġw:8:30] Meta tkellem hekk, kienu ħafna dawk li emmnu
fih.

A PHYSICIAN'S VIEW OF THE CRUCIFIXION OF JESUS CHRIST
By Dr. C. Truman Davis
http://www.lovecrucified.com/jesus/crucifixion_physicians_view.html
The blood stains of Jesus exposed on the shroud of Turin
What does the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, our God, our Creator in human nature, really mean?
What Jesus, went through so that our sins could be forgiven, is beyond man's comprehension: The love and glory of God overflowed in His humility to bow down to be tortured and crucified, in total obedience to the will of God the Father.
This love still overflows yet again in His humility hidden in the Holy Eucharist in order for us to let Him transform us and in gratitude we give Him first priority in our life, bowing down to His will.
By the Sacrament of Penance and Reconcilation, we learn to become conscious of the empowerment in the Sacrament of Holy Communion during Holy Mass: The empowerment to evangelize the Word of God without fear or shyness, through our humble and charitable duties and services.

The Shroud of Turin: Detailed Analysis
The Shroud
of Turin is secured in a vault in the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in
Turin, Italy, the Shroud is believed by millions to be the burial cloth of
Jesus. It is a fine linen cloth, measuring 14.5 feet by 3.5 feet, and
mysteriously displays a finely detailed negative photographic image — front and
back, head to toe, of an anatomically correct man who appears to have been
tortured, beaten, and crucified. Note that, in their accounts of Christ’s
suffering and death on the cross, all four Gospels mention a “fine linen
cloth.”
Biggest Shroud Of Turin Discovery Ever Made 3 Jun 2022 - The Shroud of Turin is one of the most mysterious objects in the world.
