The Gospel according to St. Luke Chapter 3 of 24 (To update)


The Gospel according 

to 

St. Luke



Chapter 3


¹ In the fifteenth year of the reign of Emperor Tiberius, when Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, and Herod was ruler of Galilee, and his brother Philip ruler of the region of Iturarea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias ruler of Abilene, ² during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John son of Zechariah in the wilderness.


(The Gospel according to St. Luke Chapter 3 verses 1 to 2)


Oh God my Father You send Your Word at the most appropriate time in world history when interesting changes are taking place. The time of Emperor Tiberius was a time of wise and controlled rule. On the other hand, the reign of Pontius Pilate was also described as being a reasonable rule of Judea which is described as being attested and approved. Moreover, Herod's rule marked a new beginning for his subjects as was for the people of God under Annas and Caiaphas. During our times oh God my Father You are also allowing important changes to take place, both in the social and political domain and even on an environmental and spiritual dimension. For instance the impact of Corona Virus brought new life to attending for Mass since we had abstained for almost three months as in the case of Malta. Amen. Therefore every change that happens affects and is affected by another thus creating a chain reaction leading to the unfolding of Your plan for us Amen.
