When the days for Jesus to be taken up were fulfilled, he resolutely determined to journey to Jerusalem, and he sent messengers ahead of him. On the way they entered a Samaritan village to prepare for his reception there, but they would not welcome him because the destination of his journey was Jerusalem. When the disciples James and John saw this they asked, "Lord, do you want us to call down fire from heaven to consume them?" Jesus turned and rebuked them, and they journeyed to another village.
Reflection:
Uno man
na tag-tujoan man gajud ni Jesus na maogi sa Samaritan territory na nahibayo na
man daan Sija na dili sila dawaton nan mga Jew sa ila village, sanan nangajo pa
gajud Sija nan hospitality sa isa sa ila mga village.
Amo
balitaw na nangajo nan permiso an duha ka disciple ni Jesus na sunugon an
Samaritan village kay juhot man sila dila kay dili man sila dawaton nila.
Seguro,
gusto lamang ipakita ni Jesus na madawat Nija an rejection sanan pagdumili nan
mga Samaritan Dija para i-demonstrate na kinahanglan ma-reconcile anay kita
tanan kan God sanan sa ato isigkatawo adeser kita mahilangit.
