Readings reveal Jesus as the gentle Servant. In Jesus Christ, God’s justice comes not by force but through mercy, healing, and sacrificial love. Mary of Bethany recognizes His mission, offering costly devotion that foreshadows His death, while Judas Iscariot embodies blindness. Christ opens eyes, frees hearts, and brings light, yet faces rejection. True discipleship responds with love, surrender, and trust in God’s saving plan unfolding through suffering into glory.
In Holy Week, we follow the One who frees captives and establishes justice through the cross.
