God’s Law
 Scripture has always held God’s law to be the path to human happiness. In today’s first reading, Ezra the
 priest reads the scroll of the law to the people returned from exile. They weep—then are joyful. Israel’s
 relationship with God had always been defined by how they kept and lived God’s law. The author of
 Psalm 96 likewise praises the law of God as the source of wisdom, joy and enlightenment, purity and
 justice. In his advice to the bickering Corinthians, Paul points out that, just as God has made all parts of a
 human body essential for the health of the whole, living as “Christ’s body” requires that each member be
 recognized as necessary for the good of all. Finally, in Luke’s Gospel Jesus claims that the Spirit is send-
 ing him to relieve human suffering. Like Ezra, he is reading from a scroll, proclaiming God’s “law” of
 mercy to those in need.

La Ley De Dios
    La Escritura siempre ha sostenido que la ley de Dios es el camino para la felicidad humana.
En la primera lectura, el sacerdote Esdras lee el rollo de la ley al pueblo que regresó del exilio.
El pueblo llora y luego se alegra. La relación de Israel con Dios siempre se ha definido por
cómo guardaba y vivía la ley de Dios. El autor del salmo 96 también alaba la ley de Dios como
el origen de la sabiduría, alegría e iluminación, pureza y justicia.
    En su consejo con los corintios discutidores, Pablo señala que, al igual que Dios ha hecho
todas las partes del cuerpo humano esenciales para la salud integral, vivir como “el cuerpo de
Cristo” requiere que cada miembro sea reconocido como necesario para el bien de todos. Por
último, en el Evangelio de Lucas, Jesús afirma que el Espíritu lo envía a aliviar el sufrimiento
