讀經一（看，那作夢的人來了，我們殺掉他。）

創世紀　37:3-4,12-13,17-28

以色列愛若瑟超過其他的兒子，因為是他年老生的，並給他做了一件彩色長衫。若瑟的哥哥們見父親愛他勝過其餘的兒子，就忌恨他，不能與他和氣交談。

若瑟的哥哥們去了舍根，放他們父親的羊。以色列對若瑟說：「你哥哥們不是在舍根放羊麼？來，我打發你去看看他們。」於是若瑟便去追尋他的哥哥，在多堂找到了。他們老遠就看見了他；在他尚未來近以前，就已決定要謀殺他。他們彼此說：「看，那作夢的人來了！我們殺掉他，將他拋在一口井裡，說是猛獸吃了。看他的夢還有什麼用？」勒烏本聽了，就設法由他們手中救他，遂說：「我們不要害他！」勒烏本又對他們說：「你們不要流血；只將他丟在這曠野的井裡，不可下手害他。」他的意思是想由他們手中救出他來，還給父親。若瑟一來到他哥哥們那裡，他們就脫去了他穿的那件彩色長衣，抓住他，把他丟在井裡；那井是空的，裡面沒有水。

他們坐下吃飯時，舉目看見一隊由基耳阿得來的依巿瑪耳人；他們的駱駝滿載樹膠、香液和香料，要下到埃及去，猶大遂對兄弟們說：「殺害我們的弟弟，隱瞞他的血，究竟有什麼益處？不如將他賣給依巿瑪耳人，免得對他下毒手，因為他究竟是我們的兄弟，是我們的骨肉。」兄弟們聽從了他的意見。米德楊的商人經過那裡時，他們便從井中拉出若瑟來，以二十塊銀錢賣給了依巿瑪耳人；他們便將若瑟帶到埃及去了。——上主的話。

福音（這是繼承人；來！我們殺掉他。）

恭讀聖瑪竇福音　21:33-43,45-46

那時候，耶穌對司祭長和民間長老說：「你們再聽一個比喻吧！從前有一個家主，培植了一個葡萄園，周圍圍上籬笆，園內挖了一個榨酒池，築了一個守望台，把它租給園戶，就離開了本國。快到收果子的時節，他打發僕人到園戶那裡去收果子。園戶拿住了僕人，將一個鞭打了，將一個殺了，將另一個用石頭砸死了。他再打發一些僕人去，人數比以前還多；園戶也一樣對待了他們，最後他打發自己的兒子到他們那裡去，說：他們會敬重我的兒子。但園戶一看見是兒子，就彼此說：這是繼承人；來！我們殺掉他，我們就能得到他的產業。於是他們拿住他，把他推到園外殺了。那麼，當葡萄園的主人來時，他要怎樣處置那些園戶呢？」他們回答說：「要凶惡地消滅那些凶惡的人，把葡萄園另租給按時給他繳納出產的園戶。」耶穌對他們說：「『匠人棄而不用的石頭，反而成了屋角的基石；那是上主的所行所為，在我們眼中，神妙莫測！』的這句經文，你們沒有讀過嗎？為此，我對你們說，天主的國，必由你們中奪去，而交給結果子的外邦人。」

司祭長和法利塞人聽了他的這些比喻，覺出他是指著他們說的，就想逮住他，但害怕民眾，因為他們以耶穌為一位先知。——上主的話。

Friday of the Second Week of Lent Lectionary: 234 Reading I Gn 37:3-4, 12-13a, 17b-28a

Israel loved Joseph best of all his sons, for he was the child of his old age; and he had made him a long tunic. When his brothers saw that their father loved him best of all his sons, they hated him so much that they would not even greet him. One day, when his brothers had gone to pasture their father’s flocks at Shechem, Israel said to Joseph, “Your brothers, you know, are tending our flocks at Shechem. Get ready; I will send you to them.” So Joseph went after his brothers and caught up with them in Dothan. They noticed him from a distance, and before he came up to them, they plotted to kill him. They said to one another: “Here comes that master dreamer! Come on, let us kill him and throw him into one of the cisterns here; we could say that a wild beast devoured him. We shall then see what comes of his dreams.” When Reuben heard this, he tried to save him from their hands, saying, “We must not take his life. Instead of shedding blood,” he continued, “just throw him into that cistern there in the desert; but do not kill him outright.” His purpose was to rescue him from their hands and return him to his father. So when Joseph came up to them, they stripped him of the long tunic he had on; then they took him and threw him into the cistern, which was empty and dry. They then sat down to their meal. Looking up, they saw a caravan of Ishmaelites coming from Gilead, their camels laden with gum, balm and resin to be taken down to Egypt. Judah said to his brothers: “What is to be gained by killing our brother and concealing his blood? Rather, let us sell him to these Ishmaelites, instead of doing away with him ourselves. After all, he is our brother, our own flesh.” His brothers agreed. They sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces of silver. Responsorial Psalm 105:16-17, 18-19, 20-21 R. (5a)

Remember the marvels the Lord has done. When the LORD called down a famine on the land and ruined the crop that sustained them, He sent a man before them, Joseph, sold as a slave.

R. Remember the marvels the Lord has done. They had weighed him down with fetters, and he was bound with chains, Till his prediction came to pass and the word of the LORD proved him true.

R. Remember the marvels the Lord has done. The king sent and released him, the ruler of the peoples set him free. He made him lord of his house and ruler of all his possessions.

R. Remember the marvels the Lord has done.

Verse before the Gospel Jn 3:16​

God so loved the world that he gave his only-begotten Son; so that everyone who believes in him might have eternal life.

Gospel Mt 21:33-43, 45-46

Jesus said to the chief priests and the elders of the people: “Hear another parable. There was a landowner who planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a wine press in it, and built a tower. Then he leased it to tenants and went on a journey. When vintage time drew near, he sent his servants to the tenants to obtain his produce. But the tenants seized the servants and one they beat, another they killed, and a third they stoned. Again he sent other servants, more numerous than the first ones, but they treated them in the same way. Finally, he sent his son to them, thinking, ‘They will respect my son.’ But when the tenants saw the son, they said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and acquire his inheritance.’ They seized him, threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What will the owner of the vineyard do to those tenants when he comes?” They answered him, "He will put those wretched men to a wretched death and lease his vineyard to other tenants who will give him the produce at the proper times.” Jesus said to them, "Did you never read in the Scriptures: The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; by the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes? Therefore, I say to you, the Kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people that will produce its fruit.” When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they knew that he was speaking about them. And although they were attempting to arrest him, they feared the crowds, for they regarded him as a prophet.

3月5日聖人 聖日拉西瑪（St. Gerasimus）院長 https://www.facebook.com/BonfireWorld/posts/3006225472933543

聖日拉西瑪是小亞細亞的一位隱修士。他後來自小亞細亞遷居巴勒斯坦，不幸墮入「基督唯神性」的邪說，幸賴聖歐第滿的忠告，悔悟己非。

有許多弟子拜日拉西瑪為師，所以他在約旦河畔，創立了一座修院。院內的修士經常守靜默，終日不出一言，夜間睡在蘆蓆上，室內從不生火取暖。他們吃的是麵包、棗子和清水。每日一部分時間祈禱，另一部分時間作手工。院規非常嚴厲，但是日拉西瑪自己遵守的規律更嚴，封齋期內，除領聖體外，不進任何食物。聖歐第滿很器重日拉西瑪。有人想修務純全的聖德，歐第滿便會介紹他到日拉西瑪處受訓。日拉西瑪在巴勒斯坦的名聲僅次於聖撒巴，日拉西瑪死後，他的修院繼續維持了一百年。

有一天，日拉西瑪在約旦河畔散步，一頭獅子蹣跚地走來，舉起一足，似乎很痛苦。日拉西瑪見獅子的足趾上有一根刺，就給牠拔去，並用布將傷口包紮好。這獅子不肯離去，日拉西瑪便將牠養在修院裡。院裡有一頭驢子，供運送水桶之用，這驢子每天出外吃草時，獅子伴牠一同到牧場去，保護牠。有一天，驢子被遊牧的外方人偷去，獅子單獨回家。日拉西瑪說道：「你怎麼單獨回來，你一定把驢子吞吃了。」獅子瞪視著主人，牠不通人言，無法自辯。日拉西瑪說：「好吧，你既然把驢子吃了，從今以後，你應代牠工作。」果然自那日起，獅子每日運載水桶到修院。過了一個時期，偷驢子的遊牧者，又帶著那頭驢子在附近走過，獅子看見了，上前將竊賊趕走，帶著驢子回來。日拉西瑪才知道以前怪錯了獅子，便給牠取名叫「約當」。日拉西瑪死後，那獅子很悲傷，不肯吃東西。新院長對牠說：「約當，你的老院長到耶穌那裡去了，你不要太悲傷，照常吃東西吧。」獅子嗚咽哀呼，不肯進食。新院長無奈，就帶牠到日拉西瑪的墳上，含淚指著墳墓說：「你看，他就葬在這裡。」獅子聞言，就躺在墳上，以頭碰地，任憑怎樣動牠，牠也不肯離去。數天後，那獅子就這樣死在墳上，以身殉主。

3.5（五）我們都是管理員 瑪竇福音廿一33-43，45-46

那時，耶穌對司祭和民間的長老說：「你們再聽一個比喻罷！從前有一個家主，培植了一個葡萄園，周圍圍上籬笆，園內掘了一個榨酒池，築了一個守望台，把它租給園戶，就離開了本國。快到收果子的時節，他打發僕人到園戶那裏去收果子。園戶拿住了僕人，將一個鞭打了，將一個殺了，將另一個用石頭砸死了。他再打發一些僕人去，人數比以前還多；園戶也一樣對待了他們，最後他打發自己的兒子到他們那 裏去，說：他們會敬重我的兒子。但園戶一看見是兒子，就彼此說：這是繼承人；來，我們殺掉他，我們就能得到他的產業。於是他們拿住他，把他推到園外殺了。那麼，當葡萄園的主人來時，他要怎樣處置那些園戶呢？」他們回答說：「要凶惡地消滅那些凶惡的人，把葡萄園另租給按時給他繳納出產的園戶。」耶穌對他們說：「『匠人棄而不用的石頭，反而成了屋角的基石；那是上主的所行所為，在我們眼中，神妙莫測』的這句經文，你們沒有讀過嗎？為此，我對你們說：天主的國，必由你們中奪去，而交給結果子的外邦人。」司祭長和法利塞人聽了衪的這些比喻，覺出衪是指著他們說的，就想逮住衪；但害怕民眾，因為他們以耶穌為一位先知。

(釋經小幫手)

你記得在創世紀中天主如何創造天地並為人們準備一個天堂般的生活環境嗎？今天，我們可以看到，天主就像福音中這「家主」一樣，培植了一個葡萄園，周圍圍上籬笆，園內掘了一個榨酒池，築了一個守望台，把它租給園戶。這意味到天主多麽信任人類，邀請人類來管理祂為我們準備的一切。

福音中的「園戶」卻想佔有所有的果子，將家主派遣來的僕人，用不同方式欺凌、處死。家主最後打發自己的兒子，認為大家會敬重他，結果沒有。看到這裡，我們也許會覺得「園戶」好殘暴、不正義。然而，是否我們也有這樣的傾向？

當我們從無到有的時候，特別當我們付出了自己的血汗得到某些成功時，我們的心態就會改變，從經營到佔有、從守護到控制？

福音中，「家主」一次次派遣僕人來提醒「園戶」他們是管理者，不是主宰者。這麼多機會反映著家主的耐心和仁慈。祂希望他們能悔改，能再次和祂建立對的關係。可惜「園戶」沒有領情，反而覺得受威脅，用暴力對待了他們認為的威脅人物。「園戶」帶給我們一個很好的警訊：當我不斷放縱自己想佔有的心，便很容易為了保護自己或不失去自己的利益，而不斷的去殺害別人。

天主願意透過我們的信仰來淨化我們，給我們悔改的機會。問題是，我們會領情嗎?

(品嚐聖言)

默想家主的耐心和仁慈。

(活出聖言)

寫下你想佔有什麼、保護什麼、主宰什麼。

(全心祈禱)

主，請教導我成為一位好的管理員，學習不要佔有，並有一顆慷慨的心。阿們。

3月5日   共創家園 
人與人相處，就像兩手交纏的十指。我們因為孤單而緊黏著對方，卻因互相黏在一起而造成極大的傷害，因為這麼做並不能消除孤單。可是我越刻意，就越急切。很多“交纏”的關係破裂，正因為這些關係領人透不過氣，感到壓迫。人與人相處應該像兩雙握起的手，手指相觸，卻不一定要黏在一起。兩人可以營造一處空間，是可以安然憩息的帳篷、家園。 
真誠的人際關係是以天主為中心的，這種關係在世上有如祈禱，有時兩手完全相合，有時兩手分開，但總是兩手間移來移去，不會失去接觸，向著把他們聚在一起的天主祈禱。~ 盧雲神父
