2nd Week of Easter – Wednesday A
As we continue our Easter journey in this time slot, chronologically speaking, between the Resurrection and the Ascension of our Lord in just a few more weeks, we are in that time period where Jesus was appearing to various people. And basically, those apparitions were reminders that God keeps His word, that prophecies from the Old Testament are fulfilled in Jesus, who has begun something new—and by new I mean something heroically virtuous: a mode of living which exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and the Pharisees and the Sadducees.
