Since God has first loved us (cf. 1 Jn 4:10), love is now no longer a mere “command”; it is the response to the gift of love with which God draws near to us [Pope Benedict]
Siccome Dio ci ha amati per primo (cfr 1 Gv 4, 10), l'amore adesso non è più solo un « comandamento », ma è la risposta al dono dell'amore, col quale Dio ci viene incontro [Papa Benedetto]
Another aspect of Lenten spirituality is what we could describe as "combative" […] where the "weapons" of penance and the "battle" against evil are mentioned. Every day, but particularly in Lent, Christians must face a struggle […] (Pope Benedict)
Un altro aspetto della spiritualità quaresimale è quello che potremmo definire "agonistico" […] là dove si parla di "armi" della penitenza e di "combattimento" contro lo spirito del male. Ogni giorno, ma particolarmente in Quaresima, il cristiano deve affrontare una lotta […] (Papa Benedetto)
Jesus wants to help his listeners take the right approach to the prescriptions of the Commandments given to Moses, urging them to be open to God who teaches  us true freedom and responsibility through the Law. It is a matter of living it as an instrument of freedom (Pope Francis)
Gesù vuole aiutare i suoi ascoltatori ad avere un approccio giusto alle prescrizioni dei Comandamenti dati a Mosè, esortando ad essere disponibili a Dio che ci educa alla vera libertà e responsabilità mediante la Legge. Si tratta di viverla come uno strumento di libertà (Papa Francesco)
In the divine attitude justice is pervaded with mercy, whereas the human attitude is limited to justice. Jesus exhorts us to open ourselves with courage to the strength of forgiveness, because in life not everything can be resolved with justice. We know this (Pope Francis)
Nell’atteggiamento divino la giustizia è pervasa dalla misericordia, mentre l’atteggiamento umano si limita alla giustizia. Gesù ci esorta ad aprirci con coraggio alla forza del perdono, perché nella vita non tutto si risolve con la giustizia; lo sappiamo (Papa Francesco)
The true prophet does not obey others as he does God, and puts himself at the service of the truth, ready to pay in person. It is true that Jesus was a prophet of love, but love has a truth of its own. Indeed, love and truth are two names of the same reality, two names of God (Pope Benedict)
Il vero profeta non obbedisce ad altri che a Dio e si mette al servizio della verità, pronto a pagare di persona. E’ vero che Gesù è il profeta dell’amore, ma l’amore ha la sua verità. Anzi, amore e verità sono due nomi della stessa realtà, due nomi di Dio (Papa Benedetto)
“Give me a drink” (v. 7). Breaking every barrier, he begins a dialogue in which he reveals to the woman the mystery of living water, that is, of the Holy Spirit, God’s gift [Pope Francis]

The mystery of ‘home-coming’ wonderfully expresses the encounter between the Father and humanity, between mercy and misery, in a circle of love that touches not only the son who was lost, but is extended to all (Pope John Paul II)
Il mistero del ‘ritorno-a-casa’ esprime mirabilmente l’incontro tra il Padre e l’umanità, tra la misericordia e la miseria, in un circolo d’amore che non riguarda solo il figlio perduto, ma si estende a tutti (Papa Giovanni Paolo II)
