FIRST READING (Sir 15.16 to 21)
No one has commanded to be ungodly.
From the Book of Sirach
If you want to keep his commandments, they guard you,
if you trust him, you will.
He has placed before you fire water
where you tend your hand.
Before man are life and death, good and evil:
everyone will be given what he pleases.
Great indeed is the wisdom of the Lord;
strong and powerful, he sees everything.
His eyes are on those who fear him, and he knows every
work of men.
No one has commanded to be ungodly
and nobody has given permission to sin.
Word of God

SECOND READING (1Cor 2.6 to 10)
God has established a wisdom before the ages for our glory.
from the first letter of St Paul
Brothers to the Corinthians, among those who are perfect we are talking about, yes, of wisdom, but a wisdom that is not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, which are reduced to nothing. Let's talk about the wisdom of God, who is the mystery that has remained hidden and that God has set before the ages for our glory.
None of the rulers of this world has known, if they had known, would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
But, as it is written
"What eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor the
heart of man,
God has prepared for them that love him.
But to us God has revealed by the Spirit, the Spirit indeed knows all things, even the depths of God's Word God
Singing the Gospel (Mt 11:25)
Alleluia, alleluia.
thank you, Father,
Lord of heaven and earth, because the small
have revealed the mysteries of the kingdom.
Alleluia.
GOSPEL (Mt 5.17-37)
So it was said to the ancients, but I tell you.
+ Gospel according to Matthew
At that time, Jesus told his disciples:
"I do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets: I came not to abolish them but to give its full completion. Verily I say unto you, until they are passed the heavens and the earth, not only will a single hyphen or an iota of the Law, until all is done. Whosoever therefore shall break one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do so will be called least in the kingdom of heaven. Who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
I tell you, in fact, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
You have heard that the ancients were told, "Do not kill, and whoever kills shall be submitted to the court." But I say to every one who is angry with his brother will be subject to legal proceedings. And whoever says to his brother: "Stupid", will be answerable to the Sanhedrin, and whoever says, "Crazy," will go to hell fire.
So if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there before the altar, it should 'first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come to offer your gift.
will soon agree with your opponent while you are traveling with him, because the adversary deliver thee to the judge and the judge to the guard, and you will be thrown in jail. Verily I say unto you will never get out until you have paid the last penny! You have heard
that it was said: "Thou shalt not commit adultery." But I say to everyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
If your right eye causes you to sin, and cast it from thee: in fact you should lose one of your members than that your whole body thrown into Gehenna. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away: in fact you should lose one of your members than that your whole body go into hell.
was also said, "Whoever divorces his wife must give the act of repudiation." But I say unto you, whoever divorces his wife, except in the case of illegitimate union, adulteress and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
you have heard that the ancients were told, "Do not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to the Lord." But I say: Do not swear at all, neither by heaven, for it is God's throne, nor by the earth, because it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King Do not swear your head, because you do not have the power to make one hair white or black. Let what you say, "yes, yes," "no, no" more than this comes from evil. "
Word of the Lord.

Comment
The religious ideal of devout Jews consisted in observing the law, through which it carries out the will of God
meditate, obey the law, was for the Israelite his "legacy", "a lamp for his steps, his" refuge ", his" peace "(cf. Ps 119).
Jesus is the fulfillment of the law because he is the last word of the Father (Heb 1:1). Paul tells us that "he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law ... Fulfilling of the law is love "(Rom 13.8 to 10).
It is in this sense that Jesus is the fulfillment of every word that proceeds from the mouth of God: "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son ... that the world might be saved through him "(Jn 3:16-17).
The Christian is first and foremost a disciple of Jesus, not the one who fulfills the law. The Pharisees were obsessed with the literal and meticulous implementation of the law, but they had completely lost the spirit. Hence the words of Jesus: "Unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees ...".
Love is not primarily a widespread feeling to always do what we want, but rather the engine of the service of others, according to the divine plan. And that is why Jesus enumerates six cases of daily life - we will see today the first three - in which this love is manifested concretely reconciliation with our neighbors, do not be angry, do not insult anyone, not even the desire to commit adultery, avoid sin, even if there is as loyal to your eye or your right hand, not a valid marriage divorce ...
The contrast with the criteria that govern the modern world could hardly be greater. For what values \u200b\u200bChristians bet? Once again we are comforted by the statement of Christ: "Heaven and earth will pass away but my words shall not pass away" (Mt 24:35).
