Born of the Spirit, the Saviour and the Emmanuel - 4th Sunday of Advent Year A

Published: Dec. 13, 2022, 11:49 p.m.

Born of the Spirit, the Saviour and the Emmanuel: On this final Sunday of Advent we turn to the story of Jesus' birth; it contains a message full of wonderful promise. The puzzlement created by Mary's pregnancy is overcome by the angel's explanation because this child is “of the Spirit". Matthew's story of Jesus' first coming prepares us for a promise that the risen Jesus will make in the very last line of the Gospel: "I will be with you till the end of the ages".

Presented by world-renowned biblical scholar Rev. Professor Francis J. Moloney SDB AM, Audio Divina, is a Lectio-Divina styled reflection on the gospel for the Fourth Sunday of Advent, Year A.

Gospel Reading: Matt 1:18-24
