The Dedication of the Lateran Basilica LITURGY OF THE WORD 1st READING EZEKIEL 47: 1-2,8-9, 12 (Life giving Temple) This text is a figure of the life that flows from the new temple from the new worship brought by Christ. It will overflow the earth, producing trees, herbs, and fruits that will become the food and medicine of human beings. Water is a sign and a promise of life. RESPONSORIAL PSALM PS 46 (God in Its Midst) “The waters of the river gladden the city of God, the holy dwelling of the Most High”
2nd READING CORINTHIANS 3: 9C-11, 16-17 (God’s Building) Paul elaborates on the temple figure, of which our parish church is a sign. God’s people can only be a solid building, in which the Spirit of God dwells, if it built on the solid foundation that is Christ.
THE GOSPEL OF JOHN 2:13-22 (JESUS: Living Temple) John wants to teach that Jesus put an end to the old way of worship (in the temple), and inaugurated a new worship, “in Spirit and truth.” This transition was accomplished by Jesus’ death and resurrection.
