Here are some of the main themes in the readings for the 27th Sunday of the Year.
1st Reading – Genesis 2:18-24
God makes different animals for the man (who gives them names) but none are a suitable partner. God casts a deep sleep on the man and fashions a woman from one of his ribs.
Psalm – 128:1-6
“May the Lord bless us all the days of our lives.” The man who follows the Lord is blessed in his family, with sufficient food and prosperity.
2nd Reading – Hebrews 2:9-11
The passage reflects on the person of Jesus, who was “for a little while” made “lower than the angels” that he might taste death. Christ is the one through whom all things exist, and he made our salvation perfect through his suffering.
Gospel – Mark 10:2-16
Jesus responds to a question from a Pharisee about divorce. Jesus then says, “Let the children come to me” when they were being prevented by the disciples.
