[ 백 ] God's Supper, Holy Thursday

 

< Gloria > 

The Church begins the Sacred Triduum with the Mass of the Lord's Supper.
On the night before he was arrested, Jesus shared a last meal with his disciples. During this meal, he offered his body and blood to God the Father in the form of bread and wine. He also showed his great love for his disciples by washing their feet.
In obedience to Jesus' command, his disciples and their successors have continued to celebrate this meal as the Eucharist. The Eucharist is a central part of Christian life, and it is a time when we remember Jesus' sacrifice and his love for us.

제 1독서  First Reading
< The Rules of the Passover Meal > 

▥ From the Book of Exodus.   12,1-8.11-14
Then the Lord said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt.
"Make this month your first month, and your first month of the year.
3. Tell this to the whole community of Israel.
"On March 10th of this month, you will have a small livestock in each household,
Prepare a small farm animal for each house.
If you don't have a family and you have too many animals,
Prepare the beast with your nearest neighbor according to the number of people.
Choose the beast according to the amount each eats.
This beast is a flawless male from a year ago, and be prepared among sheep and goats.
You will leave it until the 14th of this month,
All the communities of Israel gather and catch them in the evening.
and take his blood, and apply it to the two pillars of the house where the beasts are eaten, and to the merchant's room.
I should have eaten the meat that night,
It should be grilled over a fire and eaten with malted bread and bitter vegetables.
11 When you eat it, you tie a belt around your waist, put shoes on your feet, and hold a cane in your hand,
You have to hurry up and eat. This is the Pascha Festival for God.
This night I passed through the land of Egypt,
"From man to beast, we will defeat all the eldest and eldest sons of the land of Egypt."
and punish all the Egyptian gods. I am the Lord.
13 The blood applied to your house will be the cover for you.
When I strike Egypt, I see its blood and you pass by.
and no calamity will destroy you.
It's your anniversary,
On this day, hold a festival for God.
We should make this an eternal rule and spend

it as a holiday for generations to come."

The Word of the Lord.
◎ Thanks be to God.

제 2독서  Second Reading
< For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup,
you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes. > 

▥ From the first letter of Paul to the Corinthians.  Corinthians 11:23-26
Brothers and sisters,
23 I passed on to you what I received from the Lord himself.
On the night he was betrayed, the Lord Jesus took bread,
24 and when he had given thanks,
he broke it and said,
“This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.”
25 In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying,
“This cup is the new covenant in my blood;
do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.”
26 For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup,
you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.

복음  Gospel
< Jesus loved his people to the very end. >

✠ The Holy Gospel according to John.   Jn 13:1-15
1 Before the Passover festival began,

Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart from this world and go to the Father.

Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.
2 The evening meal was in progress,

and the devil had already prompted Judas,

the son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus.
3 Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power,

and that he had come from God and was returning to God; 
4 so he got up from the meal,

took off his outer clothing,

and wrapped a towel around his waist. 
5 After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples' feet,

drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him. 
6 He came to Simon Peter, who said to him,

"Lord, are you going to wash my feet?"
7 Jesus replied,

"You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand."
8 "No," said Peter,

"you shall never wash my feet."
Jesus answered,

"Unless I wash you, you have no part with me."
9 "Then, Lord," Simon Peter replied,

"not just my feet but my hands and my head as well!"
10 Jesus answered,

"Those who have had a bath need only to wash their feet;

their whole body is clean. And you are clean, though not every one of you."
11 For he knew who was going to betray him,

and that was why he said not every one was clean.
12 When he had finished washing their feet,

he put on his clothes and returned to his place.

"Do you understand what I have done for you?" he asked them. 
13 "You call me 'Teacher' and 'Lord,' and rightly so,

for that is what I am. 
14 Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet,

you also should wash one another's feet. 
15 I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.

The Gospel of the Lord.
◎ Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ

감사송  Preface
< Eucharistic Preface 1: Christ's Sacrifice and the Sacrament > 

Holy Father, almighty and everlasting God,
Through our Lord Jesus Christ,
it is truly right and our duty at all times
and in all places to give you thanks, Father most holy.
For he, your only Son, our Lord Jesus Christ,
is the true and eternal priest, who,
offering himself once for all as a perfect sacrifice for our sins,
entered into the holy of holies, not made with hands,
but into heaven itself, now to appear in your presence for us.
Therefore, as we celebrate the memorial
of his death and resurrection, we offer you,
O Lord, the bread of life and the cup of salvation,
giving thanks to you through him, and we pray:
Look with favor on your Church,
which you have purchased with the precious blood
of your Son, and bring us all to the unity
of your holy Spirit.
Remember your people throughout the world,
and sanctify them in the truth. Your word is truth.
Keep safe and strengthen your servants,
the bishops, priests, and deacons,
and all who minister in your holy Church.
Pour out your gifts on your people,
and guide us in the way of peace.
Bring us, together with all your saints,
into the joy of your eternal kingdom,
where we shall live and praise you through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.

오늘의 묵상  Today's Meditation

The Triduum begins with the celebration of the Lord's Supper Mass, which can be considered the culmination of salvation history. Therefore, all the readings and the Gospel of today's liturgy introduce the 'Supper' scene. The First Reading introduces the Passover Supper of the Old Testament, the Second Reading introduces the Supper of the early Church, and the Gospel introduces the Last Supper of Jesus. Just as the 'Old Testament Passover' began with Moses' exhortation to the Israelites, the 'New Testament Passover' began with Jesus' Last Supper.
The story of the Last Supper in the Gospel of John focuses on the themes of 'love' and 'service.' Sensing that his time with his disciples was coming to an end, Jesus expressed his love for them in a tangible way. Love cannot be hidden, and it always leads to concrete action. Jesus showed that love must be expressed through service by washing the feet of his disciples.
In Jewish culture, it was customary to wash the feet of guests who had traveled long distances on dusty roads. Jesus took on the role of a servant and washed the feet of his disciples, teaching them that love must be expressed through service. He then asked them, "Do you understand what I have done to you?" In the original Greek text, the verb "understand" comes first, emphasizing the question "Do you know why I am doing this?" The answer is given in the following verse: "I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you." The love that is expressed through service, as Jesus did, is the task that we are called to do.
God kneels before humanity. This love, which kneels before the unjust violence of the privileged and before the human who betrayed him, will now be solemnly remembered and celebrated throughout the Triduum.

< After the Sacred Heart, a procession is held to worship the extremely sacred body in a specially prepared Sacred Heart Storage (Reception Hall) with decorations suitable for other parts of the cathedral and the Buddhist temple.

○ Open your mouth and praise
     The glorious mystery of the Eucharist,
     The mystery of the sacred blood
     Shed for the salvation of the world.
     The King of all people, born in the flesh,
     Shed his blood for you.

     Observed the Old Testament law,
     And ate the food of the meal.
     He gave his body to feed the twelve disciples.
○ The bread of truth, spoken by the Lord who became man,
     Became the Eucharist,
     And the pure grape juice was transformed
     Into the holy blood.
     Though we cannot see it with our senses,
     We believe it firmly.
○ Let us kneel and worship before the Most High Eucharist.
     He has fulfilled the old covenant and made a new one.
     Let us proclaim the mysterious mystery of the Eucharist with faith.
○ Let us praise and glorify the one who was born
     and the one who gave birth.
     Let us praise forever the power and glory
     of the one who saved us.
     Let us offer the same praise to the Holy Spirit
     who proceeds from both.
     Amen.
