[福音] 聖神降臨節
聖神：耶穌生命的果實
福音：若二十19-23
正是那一週的第一天晚上，
門徒所在的地方，因為怕猶太人，門戶都關著，
耶穌來了，站在中間對他們說：「願你們平安！」
說了這話，便把手和肋旁指給他們看。門徒見了主，便喜歡起來。
耶穌又對他們說：「願你們平安！就如父派遣了我，我也同樣派遣你們。」
說了這話，就向他們噓了一口氣，
說：「你們領受聖神罷！
你們赦免誰的罪，就給誰赦免；
你們存留誰的，就給誰存留。」
反省
若望福音並沒有將聖神降臨放在五旬節，而是在復活當日，一週的第一天。
他刻意要營造一個新的創世紀，
耶穌給門徒們吹了一口氣如同天主給亞當吹的那富有生機的氣息，
聖神要在門徒身上開啟一個新的生命。
一個不被罪惡所綑綁的生命，在復活當日開啟的超越死亡的生命，
有屬靈的平安的生命。
第一次創造形成了世界，第二次創造成就了天國。
（姜嶺神父）
Gospel JN 20:19-23
On the evening of that first day of the week,
when the doors were locked, where the disciples were,
for fear of the Jews,
Jesus came and stood in their midst
and said to them, “Peace be with you.”
When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side.
The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.
Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you.
As the Father has sent me, so I send you.”
And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them,
“Receive the Holy Spirit.
Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them,
and whose sins you retain are retained.”
