Come and join us at the Parish Mass to celebrate the naming of Our Lord (as directed by the Angel at the Annunciation to Our Lady). As the child of devout Jewish parents, Jesus was named and circumcised according to Jewish law ('I came to fulfil the Law, not to destroy it'). The fact that God chose to send his Son, the Word made flesh, to live as a Jew with Jewish parents makes the terrible stain of anti-Semitism even more completely anti-Christian. If it was good enough for the Word made flesh to be born into a Jewish family, it is good enough for every single Christian on the planet. Let us reflect on this fact tomorrow at our Parish Mass as we celebrate Our Lord's naming and circumcision.
