Fourth Sunday of Advent
A NEW ORDER
“O, Little Town of Bethlehem.” A Philadelphia clergyman named Phillips Brooks penned
these popular words back in the mid-1800s, but
the prophet Micah could have used them first.
Micah knew that from small packages great treasures come. In today’s first reading, he knew that
from tiny Bethlehem would come the Lord.
The writer in Hebrews explains that Christ
came to us to do the will of God by establishing a
new order and by becoming our perfect sacrifice.
And Luke tells us that Elizabeth and John, the
infant in her womb, understand that great and
wondrous things are at hand with the coming of
the Lord.
This is the Fourth Sunday of Advent. Soon
we celebrate anew the fruit of Mary’s womb. As
we are told in Hebrews, Jesus’ new order is being
established even today. And as Micah proclaims,
his greatness is reaching even now to the ends of
the earth.

Cuatar Domingo de Adviento
UN ORDEN NUEVO
“Oh, pequeña aldea de Belén”; un clérigo de
Filadelfia llamado Phillips Brooks escribió este
popular villancico a mediados de los 1800, pero
el profeta Miqueas hubiera podido hacerlo primero. Miqueas sabía que el tesoro grande viene en
estuche pequeño. En la primera lectura de hoy, él
sabía que del pueblito de Belén vendría el Señor.
El escritor de la carta a los hebreos explica
que Cristo vino a nosotros para hacer la voluntad
de Dios de establecer un nuevo orden y ser un
sacrificio perfecto. Y Lucas nos dice que Isabel y
Juan, el pequeño en sus entrañas, comprenden
que grandes maravillas han llegado con la venida
del Señor.
Este es el Cuarto Domingo de Adviento. Mañana celebramos de nuevo el fruto de tu vientre,
María. Como se nos dice en Hebreos, el nuevo
orden de Jesús se está creando hoy mismo. Y como proclama Miqueas, su grandeza llega ahora
mismo hasta los confines de la tierra.
