📖MABUTING BALITA
Mateo 13, 24-30

Ang Mabuting Balita ng Panginoon ayon kay San Mateo

Noong panahong iyon, inilahad ni Hesus ang talinghagang ito sa mga tao, “Ang paghahari ng Diyos ay katulad nito: may isang taong naghasik ng mabuting binhi sa kanyang bukid. Isang gabi, samantalang natutulog ang mga tao, dumating ang kanyang kaaway at naghasik ng masasamang damo sa triguhan. Nang tumubo ang trigo at magkauhay, lumitaw rin ang masasamang damo. Kaya’t lumapit ang mga alipin sa puno ng sambahayan at sinabi rito, ‘Hindi po ba mabuting binhi ang inihasik ninyo sa inyong bukid? Bakit po may damo ngayon?’ Sumagot siya, ‘Isang kaaway ang may kagagawan nito.’ Tinanong siya ng mga utusan, ‘Bubunutin po ba namin ang mga iyon?’ ‘Huwag,’ sagot niya. ‘Baka mabunot pati trigo. Hayaan na ninyong lumago kapwa hanggang sa anihan. Pag-aani’y sasabihin ko sa mga tagapag-ani: Tipunin muna ninyo ang mga damo at inyong pagbigkis-bigkisin upang sunugin, at ang trigo’y inyong tipunin sa aking kamalig.’”

📖UNANG PAGBASA
Exodo 24, 3-8

Pagbasa mula sa aklat ng Exodo

Noong mga araw na iyon, dumating si Moises at sinabi niya sa mga Israelita ang lahat ng iniutos ng Panginoon. Ang mga ito nama’y parang iisang taong sumagot, “Lahat ng iniuutos ng Panginoon ay susundin namin.” Isinulat ni Moises ang lahat ng utos ng Panginoon. Kinabukasan, maagang-maaga siyang nagtayo ng altar sa paanan ng bundok. Nagtayo rin siya ng labindalawang bato, na kumakatawan sa labindalawang lipi ni Israel. Pagkatapos, inutusan niya ang ilang kabataang lalaki na magdala sa altar ng mga handog na susunugin. Sila rin ang inutusan niyang pumatay ng mga hayop na gagamiting handog sa pakikipagtipan sa Panginoon. Ang kalahati ng dugo ng pinatay na hayop ay inilagay niya sa malalaking mangkok at ang kalahati’y ibinuhos niya sa altar. Kinuha niya ang aklat ng tipan at binasa nang malakas. Sabay-sabay namang tumugon ang mga Israelita, “Susundin namin ang lahat ng utos ng Panginoon.”

Pagkatapos, kinuha ni Moises ang mga mangkok ng dugo at winisikan ang mga tao. Sinabi niya, “Ang dugong ito ang siyang katibayan ng pakikipagtipang ginawa sa inyo ng Panginoon sa pagbibigay sa inyo ng kautusang ito.”

📖Today’s Bible Verse of the Day Reflections

Prophet Isaiah perfectly described Jesus for who He is; gentle, kind, meek, humble and all other good things that Jesus truly is. He also prophesies about Jesus coming from God the Father to bring the Good News to all the nations.

God calls Jesus, “My Servant Whom I Have Chosen, My Beloved in Whom I Delight.” Now, you may ask, why did God have to choose His beloved son Jesus and send Him to the world as a servant and take the form of man even though He was true God? This is why!

God created us human beings for one sole reason; to know Him, love Him, serve Him, praise and glorify Him and at the end live with Him in eternal joy.

Instead of doing just that, we human beings began to turn away from God’s purpose and began knowing, loving, serving and glorifying other gods like money, wealth, idols etc.

We began to misuse the privilege of free choice that we were granted. We forgot that God is the owner of everything in this world.

When we were born we met everything already created by God. What we now worship like Money, wealth and power, are all subordinate to God.

This is not to say that they are not important but we should use them to love, serve and praise the Almighty God.

After God saw that the people had decided to worship things that are of this world and not Him, He used people like Abraham and Moses to preach to them but the people did not heed to their message to return and worship Him.

God again tried to use the prophets but the people still did not listen. This is why He decided to come down Himself in the form of His Son Jesus Christ to proclaim the same message. But then the people did not listen to God Himself again.

Now, my friends, God is using me and you to continue from where Jesus left. We need to preach to all people to turn back to God and worship Him alone.

Let us use the wealth, money and power that we have to serve, praise and glorify God because that is the sole reason He created us.

Let us always pray to God so that we can overcome the temptations of the evil one who will always entice us to worship other things instead of God.

📖Today's Gospel – Matthew 12:14-21

14 The Pharisees went out and took counsel against Jesus to put him to death.

15 When Jesus realized this, he withdrew from that place. Many people followed him, and he cured them all,

16 but he warned them not to make him known.

17 This was to fulfill what had been spoken through Isaiah the prophet:

18 Behold, my servant whom I have chosen,
my beloved in whom I delight;
I shall place my Spirit upon him,
and he will proclaim justice to the Gentiles.

19 He will not contend or cry out,
nor will anyone hear his voice in the streets.

20 A bruised reed he will not break,
a smouldering wick he will not quench,
until he brings justice to victory.

21 And in his name the Gentiles will hope.

Catholic Daily Mass Readings for July 19 2025, Saturday of the Fifteenth Week in Ordinary Time

1st Reading – Exodus 12:37-42

37 The children of Israel set out from Rameses for Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, not counting the little ones.

38 A crowd of mixed ancestry also went up with them, besides their livestock, very numerous flocks and herds.

39 Since the dough they had brought out of Egypt was not leavened, they baked it into unleavened loaves. They had rushed out of Egypt and had no opportunity even to prepare food for the journey.

40 The time the children of Israel had stayed in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years.

41 At the end of four hundred and thirty years, all the hosts of the LORD left the land of Egypt on this very date.

42 This was a night of vigil for the LORD, as he led them out of the land of Egypt; so on this same night all the children of Israel must keep a vigil for the LORD throughout their generations.

Today’s Bible Verse of the Day Reflections

Jesus is angry with the Pharisees for innocently condemning the disciples for gathering and eating grains of wheat on the Sabbath.

Jesus had said so many times that the Sabbath was made for man and not man for the Sabbath. The bone of contention here is who is greater, man or sabbath?

The challenge thrown to the Pharisees is, if someone was not supposed to work on the Sabbath, then why did the priests go to the temple to preach on the same sabbath? Why was it lawful for them and not for the rest of the people?

Christ clarifies that it is not the mere act of observing the sabbath that matters here, it is the intentions of the heart.

He says that if you do what is good in front of God on a sabbath, then that’s okay. This is because God wants us to do things out of love and mercy instead of just offering a sacrifice that is devoid of love and mercy.

Therefore, when the disciples gathered and ate the wheat on the Sabbath, then there was no sin because eating is good in God’s eyes.

Jesus also reminds the Pharisees that He is far greater than that temple and sabbath they were so engrossed with.

Jesus is the true God and so he has the powers over everything on earth. That is why he told them, “Something greater than the temple is here.”

Therefore, let us today stop dwelling so much on baseless procedures especially if they inhibit us from loving, serving, praising, and glorifying God.

Let us not be prevented from serving God by a technicality created by man. The martyrs rose above the legal and civic technicalities and praised God regardless of the wishes of evil men.

📖MABUTING BALITA
Mateo 12, 1-8

Ang Mabuting Balita ng Panginoon ayon kay San Mateo

Noong panahong iyon, isang Araw ng Pamamahinga, naparaan si Hesus sa triguhan. Nagutom ang kasama niyang mga alagad kaya’t nangitil sila ng uhay at kinain ang mga butil. Nang makita ito ng mga Pariseo, sinabi nila sa kanya, “Tingnan mo ang ginagawa ng iyong mga alagad. Bawal iyan kung Araw ng Pamamahinga.” Sumagot si Hesus, “Hindi ba ninyo nabasa ang ginawa ni David nang magutom siya at ang kanyang mga kasama? Pumasok siya sa bahay ng Diyos at kumain ng tinapay na handog sa Diyos at pinakain din niya ang kanyang mga kasama. Labag sa Kautusan na kanin nila ang tinapay na iyon sapagkat ang mga saserdote lamang ang may karapatang kumain niyon. Hindi pa ba ninyo nababasa sa Kautusan ni Moises na tuwing Araw ng Pamamahinga, lumalabag sa batas tungkol sa araw na ito ang mga saserdote sa templo, gayunma’y hindi nila ipinagkakasala iyon? Sinasabi ko sa inyo, naririto ang isang higit na dakila kaysa templo. Hindi sana ninyo hinatulan ang mga walang sala kung alam ninyo ang kahulugan ng mga salitang ito, ‘Habag ang ibig ko, hindi hain.’ Sapagkat ang Araw ng Pamamahinga ay nasa ilalim ng kapangyarihan ng Anak ng Tao.”

Exodo 11, 101-12. 14

Pagbasa mula sa aklat ng Exodo

Noong mga araw na iyon, gumawa sina Moises at Aaron ng maraming kababalaghan, ngunit hindi rin pumayag ang Faraon na umalis ang mga Israelita sa lupain ng Egipto.

Sinabi ng Panginoon kina Moises at Aaron, “Mula ngayon, ang buwang ito ang magiging unang buwan ng taon para sa inyo. At sabihin ninyo sa buong pamayanan ng Israel na sa ikasampung araw ng buwang ito, bawat puno ng sambahayan ay pipili ng isang kordero o bisirong kambing para sa kanyang pamilya.

Kung maliit ang pamilya at hindi makauubos ng isang buong kordero, magsasalo sila ng kalapit na pamilya, na hindi rin makauubos ng isang buo. Ang dami ng magsasalu-salo sa isang kordero ay ibabatay sa dami ng makakain ng bawat isa. Kailangang ang kordero ay lalaki, isang taong gulang, walang pinsala o kapintasan. Kung walang tupa ay kahit kambing. Aalagaan itong mabuti hanggang sa ikalabing-apat ng buwan at sa kinagabihan, sabay-sabay na papatayin ng buong bayan ang kani-kanilang kordero. Kukuha sila ng dugo nito at ipapahid sa mga hamba at sombrero ng pintuan ng bahay na kakainan ng kordero. Sa gabi ring iyon, lilitsunin ito at kakaning kasama ng tinapay na walang lebadura at ng mapapait na gulay. Huwag ninyong kakanin nang hilaw o nilaga ang kordero; litsunin ito nang buo, kasama ang ulo, ang mga pata at ang laman-loob. Huwag kayong magtitira para sa kinabukasan. Kung may matitira, sunugin pagka-umaga. Ganito naman ang magiging ayos ninyo sa pagkain nito: nakabigkis, nakasandalyas at may tangang tungkod; dali-dali ang inyong pagkain nito. Ito ang Paskuwa ng Panginoon.

“Sa gabing yaon, lilibutin ko ang buong Egipto at papatayin ang lahat ng panganay na lalaki, maging tao o hayop man. At parurusahan ko ang lahat ng diyus-diyosan sa Egipto. Ako ang Panginoon. Lalampasan ko ang lahat ng bahay na makita kong may pahid ng dugo, at walang pinsalang mangyayari sa inyo sa pagpaparusa ko sa buong Egipto. Ang dugo ang siyang magiging palatandaan na Israelita ang nakatira sa bahay na iyon. Ang araw na ito’y ipagdiriwang ninyo magpakailanman bilang pista ng Panginoon.”

Ang Salita ng Diyos.

📖Today's Gospel – Matthew 12:1-8

1 Jesus was going through a field of grain on the sabbath. His disciples were hungry and began to pick the heads of grain and eat them.

2 When the Pharisees saw this, they said to him, “See, your disciples are doing what is unlawful to do on the sabbath.”

3 He said to the them, “Have you not read what David did when he and his companions were hungry,

4 how he went into the house of God and ate the bread of offering, which neither he nor his companions but only the priests could lawfully eat?

5 Or have you not read in the law that on the sabbath the priests serving in the temple violate the sabbath and are innocent?

6 I say to you, something greater than the temple is here.

7 If you knew what this meant, I desire mercy, not sacrifice, you would not have condemned these innocent men.

8 For the Son of Man is Lord of the sabbath.”

1st Reading – Exodus 11:10-12:14

10 Now Moses and Aaron did all the wonders that are written, in the sight of Pharaoh. And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh; neither did he release the sons of Israel from his land.

1 The Lord also said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt:

2 “This month will be for you the beginning of the months. It will be first in the months of the year.

3 Speak to the entire assembly of the sons of Israel, and say to them: On the tenth day of this month, let everyone take a lamb, by their families and houses.

4 But if the number is less than may suffice to be able to consume the lamb, he shall accept his neighbor, who has been joined with his house according to the number of souls that may suffice to be able to eat the lamb.

5 And it shall be a lamb without blemish, a one year old male. According to this rite, you shall also take a young goat.

6 And you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month. And the entire multitude of the sons of Israel shall slaughter it toward evening.

7 And they shall take from its blood, and place it on both the door posts and the upper threshold of the houses, in which they will consume it.

8 And that night they shall eat the flesh, roasted by fire, and unleavened bread with wild lettuce.

9 You shall not consume anything from it raw, nor boiled in water, but only roasted by fire. You shall devour the head with its feet and entrails.

10 Neither shall there remain anything from it until morning. If anything will have been left over, you shall burn it with fire.

11 Now you shall consume it in this way: You shall gird your waist, and you shall have shoes on your feet, holding staves in your hands, and you shall consume it in haste. For it is the Passover (that is, the Crossing) of the Lord.

12 And I will cross through the land of Egypt that night, and I will strike down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from man, even to cattle. And I will bring judgments against all the gods of Egypt. I am the Lord.

13 But the blood will be for you as a sign in the buildings where you will be. And I will see the blood, and I will pass over you. And the plague will not be with you to destroy, when I strike the land of Egypt.

14 Then you shall have this day as a memorial, and you shall celebrate it as a solemnity to the Lord, in your generations, as an everlasting devotion.

Mateo 11, 25-27

Ang Mabuting Balita ng Panginoon ayon kay San Mateo

Noong panahong iyon, sinabi ni Hesus, “Pinasasalamatan kita, Ama, Panginoon ng langit at lupa, sapagkat inilihim mo ang mga bagay na ito sa marurunong at matatalino at inihayag sa mga may kaloobang tulad ng sa bata. Oo, Ama, sapagkat gayun ang ikinalulugod mo.

Ibinigay sa akin ng aking Ama ang lahat ng bagay. Walang nakakikilala sa Anak kundi ang Ama, at walang nakakikilala sa Ama kundi ang Anak at yaong marapating pagpahayagan ng Anak.”

📖UNANG PAGBASA
Exodo 3, 1-6. 9-12

Pagbasa mula sa aklat ng Exodo

Noong mga araw na iyon, si Moises ay nag-aalaga sa kawan ng biyenan niyang si Jetro. Minsan, itinaboy niya ang kawan pabagtas ng disyerto at nakarating siya sa Horeb, sa Bundok ng Diyos. Doon, ang anghel ng Panginoon ay napakita sa kanya, parang ningas sa gitna ng isang mababang punongkahoy. Kitang-kita ni Moises na nagliliyab ito ngunit hindi nasusunog. Kaya’t nasabi niya sa kanyang sarili, “Kataka-taka ito! Tingnan ko ngang mabuti kung bakit di nasusunog gayong nagliliyab.”

Nang lalapit na si Moises, tinawag siya ng Panginoon buhat sa nagliliyab na punongkahoy, “Moises, Moises.”

“Ano po iyon?” sagot niya.

Sinabi ng Diyos, “Huwag kang lumapit. Hubarin mo ang iyong sandalyas sapagkat banal na dako ang kinatatayuan mo. Ako ang Diyos ng iyong mga magulang – nina Abraham, Isaac at Jacob.” Tinakpan ni Moises ang kanyang mukha pagkat natatakot siyang tumingin sa Diyos.

“Naririnig ko ang daing ng aking bayan at alam ko ang pang-aaping ginagawa sa kanila ng mga Egipcio. Kaya, papupuntahin kita sa Faraon upang ilabas mo sa Egipto ang aking bayan.”

Sumagot si Moises, “Sino po akong haharap sa Faraon at maglalabas ng bayang Israel mula sa Egipto?”

“Huwag kang mag-alaala, hindi kita pababayaan. At ito ang magiging katibayan na ako ang nagsugo sa iyo: sa bundok ding ito sasambahin ninyo ako kapag nailabas mo na sa Egipto ang aking bayan,” sabi ng Panginoon.

Ang Salita ng Diyos.
