Why Didn’t Jesus Show His Risen Glory to the World? Why Did He Entrust Delivering the Resurrection News to the Disciples? Why Didn’t Jesus Show His Risen Glory to the World? . . . The readings today place before us hearts that are hardened and reluctant to believe. The Church selects these readings today for a specific reason. Hear more within the Homily. One of the remarkable things about the Resurrection is the way it is made known to the world. On Good Friday the death of Jesus is a public event. Thousands of people watch the Crucifixion events unfold. Thousands watched it happen. Jesus’ dying was not a secret. His suffering is visible. His death is visible. Curiously, the Resurrection was not visible to the world. In fact, no one ever sees Jesus leave the tomb. Even when the angels roll the stone away, Jesus has already left the tomb. No one sees Him rise. How is His Victory not visible to the world? We would think, just like His death was made public, that His rising would also be made public. But no! Why Didn’t Jesus Show His Risen Glory to the World? . . . Why Did He Entrust Delivering the Resurrection News to the Disciples? The Lord is, curiously, pleased not to make His Victory public in the same way. He is pleased to let the world know about His Resurrection through the preaching of a handful of disciples. Why? Why didn’t Jesus show His Risen Glory to the World? Hear more within this Homily. Listen to this Meditation Media.
