Mela waħda mara, li kienet ilha tnax-il sena sħaħ tbati bit-tnixxija tad-demm, resqet lejh minn wara u messitlu t-tarf tal-libsa, għax bejnha u bejn ruħha qalet: “Imqar jekk immiss il-libsa tiegħu, infiq”…
San Mark 6:1-6
F’dak iż-żmien Ġesù mar lejn pajjiżu u d-dixxipli tiegħu marru miegħu. Meta wasal is-Sibt, daħal jgħallem fis-sinagoga, u l-ħafna li semgħuh bdew jistagħġbu u jgħidu: “Mnejn kisbu dan kollu? U x’inhu dan l-għerf li ngħatalu biex saħansitra qegħdin isiru dawn l-għeġubijiet kbar b’idejh? Dan mhuwiex il-mastrudaxxa bin Marija u ħu Ġakbu u Ġożè u Ġuda u Xmun? …
