FAUSTI - Many believe, some instead denounce Him: the same sign brings to light those who are blind and blinds those who think they see. The heads of the priests and the Pharisees gathered the sinedrio to decide what to do. To the doing of Jesus who gives life to the dead, is opposed the doing of those who give death to the living. The sign of Lazarus, who reveals the glory of the God of life, will also be the cause of the glorification of the Son, soon to be raised on the scaffold. In fact, if Jesus is the Messiah, they will intervene heavily to crush any claim to freedom. They have not understood that the Romans will do with them exactly as they do with the Messiah. He came not to free them from the Romans, but to free them and the Romans from the game of death that we all play. The Lord, who in one night brought Israel out of Egypt, will not be able in forty years to bring Egypt out of the heart of Israel. And, if its history is an anticipation of what happens to us, one can think that, in two thousand years, He may not yet have managed to free our hearts. Caiaphas is the chief of the sinedrium, who holds power, even if subordinate to the Romans. They are both sinhedrons and Roman emperors subjects of death. But in the end, it will be subject to the Lord of life, who came to see the place where we placed man. Caiaphas says the meaning of the death of Jesus: it is MAN, the only One who dies for the benefit of all, so that no one perishes. Despite himself, as chief of the priests, that of Caiaphas is a prophecy, which the evangelist notes and interprets. It is the prophecy, which from Abel to the last righteous, reveals the truth of history: it is always the righteous who pays for injustice. He brings the evil of others to the salvation of all. In God's plan the death of Jesus not only saves the Jewish people, but brings together in unity his children dispersed throughout the world. The children of God are all men, who become so, beyond any distinction of religion and race, believing in the Son and loving the brothers and the Father The day when Jesus gives His life, is the same day when they decide His death. Life for life; life at a high price, at the price of one's own death. Thus ends His day and comes His "hour" in which He will reveal His Glory. Jesus disappears; He withdraws to a region near the desert, to the city of Ephraim, in Samaria, where He was revealed as the Saviour of the world.
