John 16: 5-11 - 'Unless I go, the advocate will not come to you.'


Catechism of the Catholic Church Paragraphs:

- 2611 (In 'Jesus teaches us how to pray') - The prayer of faith consists not only in saying “Lord, Lord,” but in disposing the heart to do the will of the Father. Jesus calls his disciples to bring into their prayer this concern for cooperating with the divine plan.

- 543 (In 'The Proclamation of the Kingdom of God') - Everyone is called to enter the kingdom. First announced to the children of Israel, this messianic kingdom is intended to accept men of all nations (abbreviated).

- 1509 (In 'Heal the Sick') - “Heal the sick!” The Church has received this charge from the Lord and strives to carry it out by taking care of the sick as well as by accompanying them with her prayer of intercession. She believes in the life-giving presence of Christ, the physician of souls and bodies (abbreviated).

- 2121 (In 'Irreligion') - Simony is defined as the buying or selling of spiritual things. To Simon the magician, who wanted to buy the spiritual power he saw at work in the apostles, St. Peter responded: “Your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain God’s gift with money!” Peter thus held to the words of Jesus: “You received without pay, give without pay.” It is impossible to appropriate to oneself spiritual goods and behave toward them as their owner or master, for they have their source in God. One can receive them only from him, without payment.

- 2443 (In 'Love for the Poor') - God blesses those who come to the aid of the poor and rebukes those who turn away from them: “Give to him who begs from you, do not refuse him who would borrow from you”; “you received without pay, give without pay" (abbreviated).

Hi everyone. Let's get straight into today's podcast and we're looking at Matthew chapter 9,

0:17.4

verse 36, right through to chapter 10 verse 8. So as always, I'll read the passage, and then we'll

0:25.6

have a go at doing an exegesis of this text. When Jesus saw the crowds, he felt sorry for them

0:33.6

because they were harassed and dejected, like sheep without a shepherd.

0:39.3

Then he said to his disciples,

0:41.9

The harvest is rich, but the labourers are few, so ask the Lord of the harvest to send labourers

0:48.9

to his harvest.

0:51.0

He summoned his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits with power to cast them out and to cure all kinds of diseases and sickness.

1:03.6

These are the names of the 12 apostles.

1:07.6

First, Simon who is called Peter and his brother Andrew, James the son of Zebedee and his brother John,

1:15.6

Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the tax collector, James the son of Alpheus,

1:23.6

Simon the zealot and Judas Ascariot, the one who was to betray him.

1:30.9

These twelve Jesus sent out, instructing them as follows,

1:35.2

Do not turn your steps to pagan territory, and do not enter any Samaritan town.

1:41.7

Go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And as you go, proclaim that the

1:46.9

kingdom of heaven is close at hand. Cure the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out devils.

1:55.8

You received without charge, give without charge.

2:03.0

So, what's the context?

2:04.9

What's been happening prior to this?

2:06.8

So Jesus has been moving throughout Galilee and he's been doing lots of different

2:10.6

healings and he's been teaching in the synagogues.

2:14.2

Matthew, the author, has ended the previous section about Jesus' healing ministry, which covers
