23. Oktober
Hl. Antonius Maria Claret, Bischof und Bekenner
Freitag nach dem 21. Sonntag nach Pfingsten
Am 23. Oktober feiert der traditionelle römische Kalender (nach dem Messbuch von 1962) das Fest des heiligen Antonius Maria Claret, Bischof und Bekenner. Antonius Maria Claret wurde 1807 in Spanien geboren und war in einer Zeit des Umbruchs und des religiösen Verfalls von tiefer apostolischer Leidenschaft erfüllt. Nach seiner Priesterweihe zeichnete er sich bald durch einen asketischen Lebensstil und außergewöhnliche Seeleneifrigkeit aus. 1849 gründete er die 'Kongregation der Missionare, Söhne des Unbefleckten Herzens Mariens' (Claretiner), deren Spiritualität sich besonders durch Marienverehrung, missionarischen Eifer und Treue zur Kirche auszeichnet.
Antonius Maria Claret wurde 1850 zum Erzbischof von Santiago de Cuba ernannt und führte dort umfangreiche pastorale Reformen durch, wobei er sich besonders für Bildung, soziale Gerechtigkeit und die Verteidigung der Armen einsetzte. Seinem Wirken begegneten sowohl Bewunderung als auch Widerstände; sogar mehrere Mordanschläge überstand er unversehrt. Nach seiner Rückkehr nach Spanien wurde er zum Beichtvater der spanischen Königin ernannt, litt aber auch hier unter Verfolgungen und Missverständnissen. Sein tiefes Vertrauen auf Gott und seine kindliche Hingabe an die Gottesmutter prägten sein ganzes Leben und öffneten vielen Menschen den Weg zu Christus. Die Aufnahme des Festes im traditionellen liturgischen Kalender verdeutlicht die bedeutende Rolle dieses Heiligen im 19. Jahrhundert als Vorbild apostolischen Eifers, missionarischer Dynamik und übernatürlicher Liebe zur Kirche. Die Feier am 23. Oktober erinnert die Gläubigen im traditionellen katholischen Ritus daran, am Beispiel des hl. Antonius Maria Claret in der Nachfolge Christi und im Dienst an den Bedürftigen zu wachsen.

Léctio Epístolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Hebrǽos
Heb 7:23-27.
Fratres : Plures facti sunt sacerdótes, idcírco quod morte prohiberéntur permanére : Iesus autem, eo quod máneat in ætérnum, sempitérnum habet sacerdótium. Unde et salváre in perpétuum potest accedéntes per semetípsum ad Deum : semper vivens ad interpellándum pro nobis. Talis enim decébat, ut nobis esset póntifex, sanctus, ínnocens, impollútus, segregátus a peccatóribus, et excélsior cælis factus : qui non habet necessitátem cotídie, quemádmodum sacerdótes, prius pro suis delíctis hóstias offérre, deínde pro pópuli : hoc enim fecit semel, seípsum offeréndo, Iesus Christus, Dóminus noster.
℟. Deo grátias.

Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Hebrews
Heb 7:23-27
Brethren: The priests were numerous, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office; but Jesus, because He continues forever, has an everlasting priesthood. Therefore He is able at all times to save those who come to God through Him, since He lives always to make intercession for them. For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, set apart from sinners, and become higher than the heavens. He does not need to offer sacrifices daily - as the other priests did - first for His own sins, and then for the sins of the people; for this latter He did once for all in offering up Himself, Jesus Christ our Lord.
℟. Thanks be to God.

Matt 24:42-47.
In illo témpore: Dixit Iesus discípulis suis: Vigiláte ergo, quia nescítis qua hora Dóminus vester ventúrus sit. Illud autem scitóte, quóniam si sciret paterfamílias qua hora fur ventúrus esset, vigiláret útique, et non síneret pérfodi domum suam. Ideo et vos estóte paráti: quia qua nescítis hora Fílius hóminis ventúrus est. Quis, putas, est fidélis servus, et prudens, quem constítuit dóminus suus super famíliam suam ut det illis cibum in témpore? Beátus ille servus, quem cum vénerit dóminus eius, invénerit sic faciéntem. Amen dico vobis, quóniam super ómnia bona sua constítuet eum.

℟. Glory be to Thee, O Lord.
Matt 24:42-47
At that time, Jesus said to His disciples, “Watch, for you do not know at what hour your Lord is to come. But of this be assured, that if the householder had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would certainly have watched, and not have let his house be broken into. Therefore you also must be ready, because at an hour that you do not expect, the Son of Man will come. Who, do you think, is the faithful and prudent servant whom his master has set over his household to give them their food in due time? Blessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, shall find so doing. Amen I say to you, he will set him over all his goods.”
