The evangelization of the world involves the profound transformation of the human person (Pope John Paul II)
L'opera evangelizzatrice del mondo comporta la profonda trasformazione delle persone (Papa Giovanni Paolo II)
The Church, which is ceaselessly born from the Eucharist, from Jesus' gift of self, is the continuation of this gift, this superabundance which is expressed in poverty, in the all that is offered in the fragment (Pope Benedict)
La Chiesa, che incessantemente nasce dall’Eucaristia, dall’autodonazione di Gesù, è la continuazione di questo dono, di questa sovrabbondanza che si esprime nella povertà, del tutto che si offre nel frammento (Papa Benedetto)

The Sadducees, addressing Jesus for a purely theoretical "case", at the same time attack the Pharisees' primitive conception of life after the resurrection of the bodies; they in fact insinuate that faith in the resurrection of the bodies leads to admitting polyandry, contrary to the law of God (Pope John Paul II)
I Sadducei, rivolgendosi a Gesù per un "caso" puramente teorico, attaccano al tempo stesso la primitiva concezione dei Farisei sulla vita dopo la risurrezione dei corpi; insinuano infatti che la fede nella risurrezione dei corpi conduce ad ammettere la poliandria, contrastante con la legge di Dio (Papa Giovanni Paolo II)
Are we disposed to let ourselves be ceaselessly purified by the Lord, letting Him expel from us and the Church all that is contrary to Him? (Pope Benedict)

Jesus makes memory and remembers the whole history of the people, of his people. And he recalls the rejection of his people to the love of the Father (Pope Francis)

Ecclesial life is made up of exclusive inclinations, and of tasks that may seem exceptional - or less relevant. What matters is not to be embittered by the titles of others, therefore not to play to the downside, nor to fear the more of the Love that risks (for afraid of making mistakes)
La vita ecclesiale è fatta di inclinazioni esclusive, e di incarichi che possono sembrare eccezionali - o meno rilevanti. Ciò che conta è non amareggiarsi dei titoli altrui, quindi non giocare al ribasso, né temere il di più dell’Amore che rischia (per paura di sbagliare).
Zacchaeus wishes to see Jesus, that is, understand if God is sensitive to his anxieties - but because of shame he hides (in the dense foliage). He wants to see, without being seen by those who judge him. Instead the Lord looks at him from below upwards; Not vice versa
Zaccheo desidera vedere Gesù, ossia capire se Dio è sensibile alle sue ansie - ma per vergogna si nasconde nel fitto fogliame. Vuole vedere, senza essere visto da chi lo giudica. Invece il Signore lo guarda dal basso in alto; non viceversa
