A Gift from the King

from Hill Country Homilies · host Abp. Irineos

Today's Gospel reading is the Parable of the Wedding Feast of the Son of the King from the Gospel of St. Matthew. In his homily, Abp. Irineos discusses the wedding garment in the parable as a gift from the king, and how that relates to the failure of the guest to wear it. Comparing this parabolical robe to our own baptismal robe, Abp. Irineos urges us to be careful not to dishonor the gift our King has given to us. In closing, he ties this parable to the Parable of the Wicked Vinedressers in the opening of the Church to the Gentiles.
