In the Gospel reading Jesus answers the Pharisees and the leaders of the Jews, telling them that they have refused to listen to him and accept him, despite the many witnesses for him – God himself, John the Baptist, Moses – and the many good works he has done.
Indeed, the Pharisees and the leaders were behaving like their stiff-necked ancestors with the Lord and Moses.
We could reflect in what areas of our lives have we been stiff-necked? And have we really accepted Christ’s “credentials”?
