Bearing Witness to the Light IV...Intentional Exile and LLL

J.M.J. + O.B.T. + M.G.R.*


From high on top of Mt. Sinai...

Man becomes glory for God … when he lives by looking toward God. … Law and ethics do not hold together when they are not anchored in the liturgical center and inspired by it. … It is only when man’s relationship with God is right that all his other relationships … can be in good order. Worship, that is, the right kind of cult, of relationship with God is essential for the right kind of existence in the world. It is so precisely because it reaches beyond everyday life. Worship gives us a share in heaven’s mode of existence … and allows light to fall from that divine world to ours [Joseph Ratzinger, Collected Works: Theology of the Liturgy, pp. 7-8]…

Moses received a profound dose of this divine light...when he was intentionally exiled on the high ground for 40 days...
