THREAT TO STATUS QUO
Wednesday of the 13th Week in Ordinary Time
Mt 8:28-34
After Jesus freed the town from the menace of two demoniacs, the people asked Jesus to leave the town. But why? Should the people not ask Jesus to stay with them instead?
The people of that town seemed to be both ungrateful and rude to Jesus.
Could it be that people of that town saw Jesus as a threat to the status quo?
Yes, they actually did. Jesus disturbed the town from its complacency to having two demoniacs in the neighborhood.
