‘When he heard that John had been delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee’. Christ’s behavior towards people wasn’t monolithic. He reacted in a variety of ways. In any case, He became incarnate, was made manifest to people and revealed His wisdom with the aim of ‘presenting His life as a model to be imitated’, as Saint Gregory Palamas puts it. The way He acted depended on the particular case. He didn’t behave diplomatically or out of self-interest but always with a view to the salvation of the person concerned.

Epistle Reading Eph. 4, 7-13: “The Humility of Christ” Today is the first Sunday after the great feast of Theophany. As with all the feasts of the Lord, the Church acclaims the event of God’s Epiphany through its sublime hymns.
