Sunday of the Two Loves
The Pie Discepole del Divin Maestro published a reflection for the 30th Sunday in Ordinary Time regarding Matthew 22:34-40.
Sister M. Penha Carpenedo notes that Jesus responds to a question about the greatest of the 613 commandments of the Torah by citing Deuteronomy 6:4. This passage instructs to love God with all the heart, soul, and mind, and to love the neighbor as oneself.
The text states that this response indicates the foundation of unity between the love of God and the love of neighbor. The reflection explains that the mystery of the Incarnation allows for the recognition of God's presence in every human face.
