26th SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
A major theme in the Gospel of Luke is the importance of
the care of the poor in the life of discipleship. In the parable
found in today's Gospel, Jesus contrasts the life of a rich
man and the poor man, Lazarus, who lives in the shadow of
the rich man and his wealth. Both die. Lazarus finds himself
in heaven; the rich man in the netherworld. The rich man
asks for assistance from Lazarus in his torment. But
Abraham reminds the rich man of the good things he had in
his life and describes the current situation as a reversal of
fortunes. The rich man then asks that Lazarus be sent to
warn his family, but this is denied with the reminder that
Moses and the prophets have warned of judgment for those
who neglect the care of the poor.

XXVI DOMENICA DEL TEMPO ORDINARIO
Povertà e ricchezza sono situazioni antiche quanto il
mondo. Ma hanno fatto e continuano sempre a fare
problema. Le interpretazioni e le soluzioni sono molte. C’è
chi collega povertà e ricchezza alla «fortuna» e al caso. Chi
vede nella povertà il segno della incapacità e del disordine
morale e nella ricchezza il segno e il premio dell’intelligenza
e della virtù. Per altri è proprio il contrario: chi è onesto non
si arricchisce, perché per diventare ricchi non bisogna avere
troppi scrupoli di coscienza. Ricchezza coincide con
sfruttamento dell’uomo da parte dell’uomo: il ricco è un
ladro, disposto a tutto per difendere il suo privilegio. Nasce il
