GOSPEL READING: MARK 6:14-29
Everyone understands and accepts things as they view or as they experience or as they expect it to happen. An individual’s background and situation play a major role in his understanding of other persons and events that take place. Only when one sheds his personal interests and motivations and accepts the revelations of God then he is able to reach the truth.
Some people expected a prophet to come into the world and that was the reason that thought Jesus to be a prophet. There were people who were who were waiting for the end of the world and that was the reason they believed in Jesus as Elijah. Herod who had beheaded John was disturbed by his own actions. This was one of the reasons why he saw Jesus to be John raised from the dead.
ஒவ்வொரு மனிதனும் தன்னுடைய அனுபவ பிண்ணனியிலும் வாழ்க்கை நிகழ்வுகளின் பிண்ணனியிலும்தான் இன்று நடக்கின்ற நிகழ்வுகளையும் காண்கின்ற நபர்களையும் புரிந்து கொள்கிறான். அதனால்த்;தான் ஒருசிலர் இயேசுவை இறைவாக்கினராக அல்லது எலியாவாக ஏற்றுக்கொள்கின்றனர். ஏரோதும் அதனால்த்தான் இயேசுவை திருமுழுக்கு யோவான் என்று கூறுகிறார்.
