Iad si\u00fad a sh\u00edneann iad f\u00e9in agus a chanann baothamhr\u00e1in, imeoidh siad ar deora\u00edocht. <\/em>Ba \u00f3n fh\u00e1idh Am\u00f3s c\u00e9ad l\u00e9acht an Domhnaigh seo caite agus ch\u00e1in an f\u00e1idh go g\u00e9ar sa l\u00e9acht sin muintir R\u00edocht an Tuaiscirt, Iosrael, toisc an mh\u00ed-\u00fas\u00e1id a bhain siad as an saibhreas agus an leatrom a rinne siad ar na boicht. Bh\u00ed lucht an rachmais ag baint aoibhnis as an dul chun cinn suntasach a bh\u00ed d\u00e9anta ag an dt\u00edr i gc\u00farsa\u00ed polait\u00edochta agus soisialta. T\u00e1 cur s\u00edos cu\u00edosach mion i l\u00e9acht an lae inniu ar an saghas beatha a bh\u00ed \u00e1 caitheamh acu si\u00fad. Bh\u00ed saol na n-uaisle acu i R\u00edocht an Tuaiscirt (ar a dtugtai I\u00f3saef go fileata), faoi mar a bh\u00ed i Si\u00f3n, Iar\u00fasail\u00e9im, chomh maith. Mhothaigh siad iad f\u00e9in sl\u00e1n sabh\u00e1ilte sa phr\u00edomhchathair Sam\u00e1ire, gan fhios n\u00f3 aird acu ar an mbaol a bh\u00ed \u00e1 bhagairt \u00f3 fh\u00f3rsa\u00ed na hAsa\u00edre a bheadh chucu go luath agus a dh\u00e9anfadh an chathair agus an st\u00e1t a threascairt agus an pobal a thabhairt i gc\u00e9in ar deora\u00edocht. Cuirtear s\u00edos sa l\u00e9acht seo ar an ardleibh\u00e9al maireacht\u00e1la costasach bh\u00ed acu, ina lu\u00ed ar leapacha eabhair, s\u00ednte ar tholga, \u00e1 mbeath\u00fa f\u00e9in le uaineoil agus laofheoil, ag canadh baothamhr\u00e1n, agus fi\u00fa ag cumadh nuaghl\u00e9asanna ceoil, ceird a luatar le D\u00e1ivi, b\u00edodh gur baint le salmaireacht seachas d\u00e9ant\u00fas \u00fairlis\u00ed ceoil fianaise an Bh\u00edobla faoi Dh\u00e1iv\u00ed. \u00d3lann siad neart f\u00edona, as coirn.

L\u00e9acht chu\u00ed \u00ed seo le dul le parabal an duine shaibhir (dives) agus Lazaras i soisc\u00e9al an Domhnaigh seo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Salm le Freagra<\/em> (Salm 145[146]). Tabhair moladh don Tiarna, a anam liom.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n An Dara L\u00e9acht<\/em> (1 Tiom\u00f3id 6:11-16). Coime\u00e1d an aithne n\u00f3 go nochtfaidh \u00e1r dTiarna \u00cdosa Cr\u00edost chugainn. <\/em>Seo \u00ed an l\u00e9acht dheiridh as C\u00e9ad Litir chuig Tiom\u00f3id, agus tagann si thart ar chr\u00edoch na litreach. Leanann s\u00ed go d\u00edreach ar shliocht den litir ina thugann P\u00f3l comhairle do Thiom\u00f3id faoi chleachta\u00ed \u00e1irithe a bh\u00ed i measc mhuintir na heaglaise a bheadh le seachaint. Ina measc si\u00fad luann s\u00e9 daoine ar d\u00f3igh leo gurb \u00fadar saibhris \u00ed an cr\u00e1ifeacht (n\u00f3 an creideamh), ar a dtugann s\u00e9 a thuairim gur m\u00f3r an t-\u00fadar saibhris \u00ed an chr\u00e1ifeacht, go deimhin, an t\u00e9 a bh\u00edonn s\u00e1sta lena chuid (1 Tiom\u00f3id 6:3-6). Toisc gur duine tiomnaithe do Dhia, duine gur le Dia (\u201cduine le Dia\u201d!) \u00e9 Tiom\u00f3id n\u00ed m\u00f3r d\u00f3 bheith mar fhinn\u00e9 beo do luachanna cearta Cr\u00edosta\u00ed, agus luann P\u00f3l cuid diobh, ag tos\u00fa le creideamh. Iarrtar air cath an chredimh a fhearadh go calma, lena shl\u00ed bheatha agus firinne an chreidimh a chumhdach. Is fianaise don chreideamh beatha Thiom\u00f3id, agus cheannair\u00ed na heaglaise. Deir P\u00f3l le Tiom\u00f3id gur admhaigh s\u00e9 an creideamh go sol\u00fanta i l\u00e1thair m\u00f3r\u00e1n finn\u00e9ithe. N\u00ed deirtear linn cathain a rinne Tiom\u00f3id an admh\u00e1il sin \u2013 ag a bhaisteadh b\u2019fh\u00e9idir seachas nuair a \u00f3irn\u00edodh mar cheannaire eaglaise \u00e9 (f\u00e9ach 2 Tiom\u00f3id 1:6). Leagtar b\u00e9im anseo ar an fhianaise, agus tobar f\u00edorghlan agus eiseaml\u00e1ir gach fianaise admh\u00e1il shol\u00fanta, \u00cdosa Cr\u00edost os comhair Phoint Piol\u00e1it, an gobharn\u00f3ir R\u00f3mhanach. B\u2019fh\u00e9idir gur bheith i l\u00e1thair do Chr\u00edost os comhair Phoint at\u00e1 i gceist, fi\u00fa m\u00e1s ina a thost a bh\u00ed s\u00e9. Ach b\u2019fh\u00e9idir go bhfuil tagairt ann do briathra \u00cdosa do Phiol\u00e1it gur th\u00e1inig s\u00e9 ar an saol le fianaise a thabhairt ar an bhf\u00edrinne (Eoin 18:37). Deir P\u00f3l le Tiom\u00f3id an \u201caithne\u201d a choime\u00e1d gan ch\u00e1im, gan locht, agus b\u2019fh\u00e9idir gurb \u00e9 an aithne ghinear\u00e1lta an soisc\u00e9al a fhogairt at\u00e1 i gceist, seachas aithne \u00e9igin faoi leith. Cuirtear cr\u00edoch leis an sliocht le tagairt do theacht, taispe\u00e1nadh, \u00cdosa Cr\u00edost athuair, a bhfuil Dia le taispe\u00e1int in am tr\u00e1th, \u201cina mhithid\u00ed f\u00e9in\u201d. Ag deireadh t\u00e1 iomann molta D\u00e9, Dia dofheicthe, cos\u00fail leis an cheann a tugadh cheana in 1:17.<\/p>\n\n\n\n An Soisc\u00e9al <\/em>(L\u00fac\u00e1s 16:19-31). Fuair tusa do chuid f\u00e9in de na dea-nithe le linn do bheatha, agus mar an gc\u00e9anna fuair Lazaras na drochnithe. Ach anois t\u00e1 seisean \u00e1 sh\u00f3l\u00e1s\u00fa abhus, agus tusa do do chr\u00e1. <\/em>Ina chomhth\u00e9acs sa Soisc\u00e9al t\u00e1 ceangail idir an parabal iomr\u00e1iteach seo ar an bhfear saibhir (sa Laidin Dives) agus Lazaras agus na t\u00e9acsanna d\u00edreach roimhe i shoisc\u00e9al L\u00fac\u00e1is, go m\u00f3r m\u00f3r l\u00e9acht an Domhnaigh seo caite ar an maor m\u00edmhac\u00e1nta, agus r\u00e1itis \u00cdosa faoi sin a leanann \u00e9. Ina dhiaidh sin ar\u00eds t\u00e1 r\u00e1itis eile \u00cdosa, d\u00edrithe ar na Fairis\u00ednigh, ar an Dl\u00ed agus na F\u00e1ithe, \u00cdosa ag meabhr\u00fa gur ann f\u00f3s don Dl\u00ed, ach \u00e9 m\u00ednithe nios radaca\u00ed maidir leis an colscaradh. Ina dhiaidh sin tagann parabal an lae inniu agus an teachtaireacht at\u00e1 ann. T\u00e1 tr\u00ed roinn, mh\u00edr, sa pharabal, ar f\u00e9idir iad a iniuchadh ceann ar cheann. I dtosach b\u00e1ire t\u00e1 cur s\u00edos ar bheatha chomp\u00f3rdach an fhir shaibhir agus ar ainnis an duine dhear\u00f3ile. Faigheann an bheirt acu b\u00e1s agus t\u00f3gann an haingil Lazaras go \u201chucht Abrah\u00e1m\u201d. Samhla\u00edotar Abrah\u00e1m ina lu\u00ed ag an F\u00e9asta Meisiasach agus Lazaras ina lu\u00ed ina ucht. Adhlacadh an fear saibhir in Hades, ifreann, \u00e1it na bpianta s\u00edora\u00ed. Sa dara m\u00edr t\u00e1 comhr\u00e1 idir an fear saibhir agus Abrah\u00e1m, Abrah\u00e1m ag labhairt anseo thar cheann D\u00e9, b\u00edodh nach deirtear sin go folasach. Glaonn an fear saibhir ar Abrah\u00e1m, athair an chine Ghi\u00fadaigh, mar \u201cA Athair Abrah\u00e1m\u201d, ach achain\u00ed in aisce d\u00f3 sin. N\u00edl laghd\u00fa ar a phianta le f\u00e1il aige. Sa tr\u00ed\u00fa m\u00edr t\u00e1 achain\u00ed an duine shaibhir ar son a ch\u00faigear dearth\u00e1ir at\u00e1 beo i gc\u00f3na\u00ed le rabhadh a thabairt d\u00f3ibh lena saoradh \u00f3 phianta ifrinn. N\u00ed glactar leis an achain\u00ed seo ach oiread. Is leor d\u00f3ibh a bhfuil ina a dtraidisi\u00fan creidimh, i Dl\u00ed Mhaois agus sna F\u00e1ithe. T\u00e1 go leor sna scr\u00edbhinn\u00ed sin faoi bhaol an tsaibhris agus ch\u00faram na mbocht. Muna \u00e9isteann duine le guth D\u00e9 ag labhairt sna scr\u00edbhinn\u00ed sin, n\u00ed thabharfar aird ar ghuth duine a meastar a fhill \u00f3n mb\u00e1s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n B. An B\u00edobla: Machnamh agus agallamh le ceisteanna an lae<\/strong>: \u201cSolas an chreidimh agus ceisteanna \u00e1r linne\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Spreagann l\u00e9achta\u00ed an lae inniu, an ch\u00e9ad l\u00e9acht agus an soisc\u00e9al ach go h\u00e1irithe, spreagann siad sinn le machnamh a dh\u00e9anamh ar chreideamh i gCr\u00edost agus sa saol eile agus \u00e1r misean mar bhaill den chine daonna don saol seo agus gach a bhaineann leis. Is \u00e1bhar \u00e9 ina bhfuil saol an lae inniu in agallamh linn, agus guthanna l\u00e1idre ag mao\u00edmh gur constaic an creideamh agus an traidisi\u00fan Cr\u00edosta\u00ed le dul chun cinn an chine daonna agus c\u00faram na mbocht. Labhair an P\u00e1pa Proinsias faoi seo ina imlitir Lumen fidei\u00b8\u201dSolas an Chreidimh\u201d, <\/em>gur \u00f3n iar-Ph\u00e1pa Benedict XVI (Josef Ratzinger) an imlitir d\u00e1ir\u00edre. B\u00edodh gur baineadh \u00fas\u00e1id cheana as a d\u00fairt s\u00e9 san imlitir seo (Machnamh 19\u00fa Domhnach) is fi\u00fa a smaointe a thabhairt anseo ar\u00eds. Deir an P\u00e1pa (alt 6 den imlitir) gur ionann labhairt ar \u201csholas an chreidimh\u201d inniu agus bheith ag feitheamh le ag\u00f3id\u00ed, cur ina choinne, \u00f3 roinnt mhaith de lucht \u00e1r gcomhaimsire. Sa saol at\u00e1 inniu ann d\u2019fh\u00e9adfa\u00ed a mheas go n-oirfeadh an solas sin ceart go leor do dhaoine \u00f3 ghl\u00fain agus socha\u00ed eile at\u00e1 thart, ach nach meastar go bhfuil aon tairbhe ann d\u00e1r linn f\u00e9in, don chine daonna at\u00e1 in aois, m\u00f3rtasach as chumas a r\u00e9as\u00fain agus c\u00edocrach a thodhcha\u00ed a scr\u00fad\u00fa i sl\u00edte nua. F\u00e9achadh ar an gcreideamh ag daoine \u00e1irithe mar sholas mearbhlach, ag cur mearbhaill ar dhaoine, ag cur cosc ar na gcine daonna aghaidh a thabhairt go d\u00e1na ar lorg an eolais, mar dh\u00fal\u00e9im, l\u00e9im sa dorchadas, le t\u00f3gaint nuair nach raibh solas ar f\u00e1il, \u00e1 dtiom\u00e1int ag moth\u00fach\u00e1n caoch, n\u00f3 mar sholas subiacht\u00fail, a bh\u00ed in ann b\u2019fh\u00e9idir ola a chur ar an gcro\u00ed agus s\u00f3l\u00e1s pearsanta a thabhairt, ach nach rud \u00e9 a fh\u00e9adfa\u00ed a thairiscint do dhaoine eile mar sholas obiacht\u00fail a thabharfadh treoir don r\u00f3d seo romhainn. Sin r\u00e1ite aige, deir an P\u00e1pa go bhfuil g\u00e1 ann ar\u00eds f\u00e9achaint ar an gcreideamh mar sholas, mar uair amh\u00e1in go m\u00fachtar lasair an chreidimh, tosa\u00edonn gach solas eile ag dul i l\u00e9ig. <\/p>\n\n\n\n N\u00ed solas mearbhlach n\u00f3 ola don chr\u00f3i teachtaireacht na bhF\u00e1ithe n\u00f3 \u00cdosa.
