21. The conviction of those who explain suffering as a punishment for sin finds support in the order of justice, and this corresponds to the conviction expressed by one of Job's friends: "As I have seen, those who plough iniquity and sow trouble reap the same"(24). In his 1984 Apostolic Letter, Salvifici Doloris, Pope John Paul II explains the Church's rich teachings on human suffering and its significance.

L'homme souffre, pourrait-on dire, en raison d'un bien auquel il ne participe pas, dont il est, en un sens, dépossédé ou dont il s'est privé lui-même. Medicine, as the science and also the art of healing, discovers in the vast field of human sufferings the best known area, the one identified with greater precision and relatively more counterbalanced by the methods of "reaction" (that is, the methods of therapy). José Martí Donde quiera que alguien sufre, allí está Jesucristo.

In his suffering, sins are cancelled out precisely because he alone as the only-begotten Son could take them upon himself, accept them with that love for the Father which overcomes the evil of every sin; in a certain sense he annihilates this evil in the spiritual space of the relationship between God and humanity, and fills this space with good. Él permanece para sí mismo un ser incomprensible, su vida está privada de sentido si no se le revela el amor, si no se encuentra con el amor, si no lo experimenta y lo hace propio, si no participa en él vivamente.

Precisely by means of his Cross he must strike at the roots of evil, planted in the history of man and in human souls. These words, spoken by Christ in his conversation with Nicodemus, introduce us into the very heart of God's salvific work. Ernesto De Martino, Furore simbolo valore, Il Saggiatore, Milano 1962.

Assuming then that throughout his earthly life man walks in one manner or another on the long path of suffering, it is precisely on this path that the Church at all times - and perhaps especially during the Holy Year of the Redemption - should meet man. These sufferings enable the recipients of that Letter to share in the work of the Redemption, accomplished through the suffering and death of the Redeemer. Nevertheless, the Good Samaritan of Christ's parable does not stop at sympathy and compassion alone. 1. (5) Quod Ezechias subiit (cfr. Suffering seems in some way to share in the characteristics of this nature. Christ's Resurrection has revealed "the glory of the future age" and, at the same time, has confirmed "the boast of the Cross": the glory that is hidden in the very suffering of Christ and which has been and is often mirrored in human suffering, as an expression of man's spiritual greatness. It completes that suffering just as the Church completes the redemptive work of Christ. It is the same when we deal with death. If one becomes a sharer in the sufferings of Christ, this happens because Christ has opened his suffering to man, because he himself in his redemptive suffering has become, in a certain sense, a sharer in all human sufferings. 3. Carta apostólica - Salvifici Doloris del Sumo Pontifice Juan Pablo II. 22. Ps. For man does not put this question to the world, even though it is from the world that suffering often comes to him, but he puts it to God as the Creator and Lord of the world. Tob.

Yes, suffering has been singularly present in that victory over the world which was manifested in the Resurrection. So this circumstance shows—perhaps more than any other—the importance of the question of the meaning of suffering; it also shows how much care must be taken both in dealing with the question itself and with all possible answers to it. This "word of the Cross" completes with a definitive reality the image of the ancient prophecy. Elsewhere he addresses to his recipients words of encouragement: "May the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and to the steadfastness of Christ"(60). 18. 2. And the institutions which from generation to generation have performed " Good Samaritan" service have developed and specialized even further in our times.

Gen. 15, 2), Rachelis (cfr. According to the words spoken to Nicodemus, God gives his Son to "the world" to free man from evil, which bears within itself the definitive and absolute perspective on suffering. When a discussion question in bold is reached, the leader reads that question, and each table takes time to discuss it. Truly, the Apostle first experienced the "power of the Resurrection" of Christ, on the road to Damascus, and only later, in this paschal light, reached that " sharing in his sufferings" of which he speaks, for example, in the Letter to the Galatians. The Christian response to it is different, for example, from the one given by certain cultural and religious traditions which hold that existence is an evil from which one needs to be liberated. And at the same time it has entered into a completely new dimension and a new order: it has been linked to love, to that love of which Christ spoke to Nicodemus, to that love which creates good, drawing it out by means of suffering, just as the supreme good of the Redemption of the world was drawn from the Cross of Christ, and from that Cross constantly takes its beginning. In view of all this, we can say that the parable of the Samaritan of the Gospel has become one of the essential elements of moral culture and universally human civilization. 6. This is a difficult question, just as is a question closely akin to it, the question of evil. The theme of suffering - precisely under the aspect of this salvific meaning - seems to fit profoundly into the context of the Holy Year of the Redemption as an extraordinary Jubilee of the Church. Người đã quả quyết rất rõ ràng: "Ai muốn theo Tôi… hãy vác thập giá mình hằng ngày mà theo" (Lc 9, 23) Và với các môn đệ, Người đã đưa ra những đòi hỏi luân lý chỉ có thể thực hiện được với điều kiện từ bỏ chính mình (Lc 9, 23). The Resurrection became, first of all, the manifestation of glory, which corresponds to Christ's being lifted up through the Cross. Suffering, more than anything else, makes present in the history of humanity the powers of the Redemption. He himself is the one who in each individual experiences love; he himself is the one who receives help, when this is given to every suffering person without exception. To the Romans he writes: " We are ... fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him. Ps. From the introduction of the Book it is apparent that God permitted this testing as a result of Satan's provocation. 26. Christ's words confirm with all simplicity this human truth of suffering, to its very depths: suffering is the undergoing of evil before which man shudders. Even though Paul, in the Letter to the Romans, wrote that "the whole creation has been groaning in travail together until now"(3), even though man knows and is close to the sufferings of the animal world, nevertheless what we express by the word "suffering" seems to be particularly essential to the nature of man. In the messianic programme of Christ, which is at the same time the programme of the Kingdom of God, suffering is present in the world in order to release love, in order to give birth to works of love towards neighbour, in order to transform the whole of human civilization into a "civilization of love". Behold, the true Man of Sorrows presents himself before us: "He had no form or comeliness that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him. And this is the virtue of perseverance in bearing whatever disturbs and causes harm. Considering its "evangelical" content, we are inclined to think here of a vocation rather than simply a profession. Man " perishes" when he loses "eternal life". Parábola del Buen Samaritano. For evil remains bound to sin and death. In the Letter to the Romans, the Apostle Paul deals still more fully with the theme of this "birth of power in weakness", this spiritual tempering of man in the midst of trials and tribulations, which is the particular vocation of those who share in Christ's sufferings. 2, 2. He shows us how it is only in Christ that we can hope to find any meaning and purpose in our experience of suffering. And the more the Church feels the need to have recourse to the value of human sufferings for the salvation of the world. The 13,000-word document, titled ''Salvifici Doloris,'' or Salvific Suffering, says suffering can open the way to spiritual maturity and senstitize Christians to the need to help the afflicted . In the eyes of the just God, before his judgment, those who share in the suffering of Christ become worthy of this Kingdom. But in order to perceive the true answer to the "why" af suffering, we must look to the revelation of divine love, the ultimate source of the meaning of everything that exists. The story of this just man, who without any fault of his own is tried by innumerable sufferings, is well known.

The discovery of the salvific meaning of suffering in union with Christ transforms this depressing feeling. Christ is aware of this, and often speaks to his disciples of the sufferings and death that await him: "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes, and they will condemn him to death and deliver him to the Gentiles; and they will mock him, and spit upon him, and scourge him, and kill him; and after three days he will rise"(35). Faith enables the author of these words to know that love which led Christ to the Cross. These words seem to be found at the end of the long road that winds through the suffering which forms part of the history of man and which is illuminated by the Word of God. Though it is not licit to apply here the narrow criterion of direct dependance (as Job's three friends did), it is equally true that one cannot reject the criterion that, at the basis of human suffering, there is a complex involvement with sin. I now end the present considerations on suffering in the year in which the Church is living the extraordinary Jubilee linked to the anniversary of the Redemption. 13.

Christ does not explain in the abstract the reasons for suffering, but before all else he says: "Follow me!". In this way, that world of suffering which in brief has its subject in each human being, seems in our age to be transformed—perhaps more than at any other moment—into a special "world": the world which as never before has been transformed by progress through man's work and, at the same time, is as never before in danger because of man's mistakes and offences. (15) Haec perpessi sunt sive Iob (cfr. One can say that these words on abandonment are born at the level of that inseparable union of the Son with the Father, and are born because the Father "laid on him the iniquity of us all"(48).

In fact, that vocabulary did not have a specific word to indicate "suffering". 73 [72], 3-14), tum Qoelet (cfr. 38, 1-3). But already in itself it is sufficient argument why the answer to the question about the meaning of suffering is not to be unreservedly linked to the moral order, based on justice alone. Already in the Old Testament we note an orientation that begins to go beyond the concept according to which suffering has a meaning only as a punishment for sin, insofar as it emphasizes at the same time the educational value of suffering as a punishment. Not of course completely (for this we would have to penetrate the divine-human mystery of the subject), but at least they help us to understand that difference (and at the same time the similarity) which exists between every possible form of human suffering and the suffering of the God-man. «La sofferenza ha una forza enorme nella lotta cosmica fra bene e male». It can be said that man suffers whenever he experiences any kind of evil. This happens, as we know, at different moments in life, it takes place in different ways, it assumes different dimensions; nevertheless, in whatever form, suffering seems to be, and is, almost inseparable from man's earthly existence.

When this body is gravely ill, totally incapacitated, and the person is almost incapable of living and acting, all the more do interior maturity and spiritual greatness become evident, constituting a touching lesson to those who are healthy and normal. Christ retains in his risen body the marks of the wounds of the Cross in his hands, feet and side. Christ gives the answer to the question about suffering and the meaning of suffering not only by his teaching, that is by the Good News, but most of all by his own suffering, which is integrated with this teaching of the Good News in an organic and indissoluble way.

It can be said that the above considerations now brings us directly to Gethsemane and Golgotha, where the Song of the Suffering Servant, contained in the Book of Isaiah, was fulfilled.

The Gospel of suffering speaks first in various places of suffering "for Christ", "for the sake of Christ", and it does so with the words of Jesus himself or the words of his Apostles. She likewise bows down with all the depth of that faith with which she embraces within herself the inexpressible mystery of the Body of Christ.

But how then should the scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so?(37)". One could certainly extend the list of the forms of suffering that have encountered human sensitivity, compassion and help, or that have failed to do so. I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed in us"(67). The Apostle shares his own discovery and rejoices in it because of all those whom it can help—just as it helped him—to understand the salvific meaning of suffering. For, whereas the existence of the world opens as it were the eyes of the human soul to the existence of God, to his wisdom, power and greatness, evil and suffering seem to obscure this image, sometimes in a radical way, especially in the daily drama of so many cases of undeserved suffering and of so many faults without proper punishment. 53, 3). His words also attest to this unique and incomparable depth and intensity of suffering which only the man who is the only-begotten Son could experience; they attest to that depth and intensity which the prophetic words quoted above in their own way help us to understand. El sufrimiento como realidad humana inefable e intransferible. Christ himself is especially active in this field. 42 [41], 11; Ps. 77 [76], 3-11; Ps. Suffering seems to belong to man's transcendence: it is one of those points in which man is in a certain sense "destined" to go beyond himself, and he is called to this in a mysterious way.

Estas palabras parecen encontrarse al final del largo camino por el que discurre el sufrimiento presente en la historia del hombre e iluminado por la palabra de Dios. Dios no vino a suprimir el sufrimiento. The purpose of penance is to overcome evil, which under different forms lies dormant in man. 53, 3). To those who share in Christ's sufferings these words present themselves with the power of a supreme example. Suffering has indeed both a subjective and a passive character (from "patior"). The parable in itself expresses a deeply Christian truth, but one that at the same time is very universally human. Invenitur etiam in substantiva forma ra' et rā'ā, significante sine discrimine sive quod malum est in se, sive malam actionem, sive etiam male agentem. EL MUNDO DEL SUFRIMIENTO HUMANO.

To this grace many saints, such as Saint Francis of Assisi, Saint Ignatius of Loyola and others, owe their profound conversion. He himself is present in this suffering person, since his salvific suffering has been opened once and for all to every human suffering. Lacus Doloris (Latin for "Lake of Sorrow") is a small lunar mare located in the Terra Nivium region at 17.1° N, 9.0° E.

This answer has been given by God to man in the Cross of Jesus Christ. I shall see God..."(28). (13) His Psaltes (Ps. But Christ has made suffering the firmest basis of the definitive good, namely the good of eternal salvation. In doing this, the individual unleashes hope, which maintains in him the conviction that suffering will not get the better of him, that it will not deprive him of his dignity as a human being, a dignity linked to awareness of the meaning of life. As a result of Christ's salvific work, man exists on earth with the hope of eternal life and holiness. These persecutions and tribulations will also be, as it were, a particular proof of likeness to Christ and union with him. Thus the personal dimension of punishment is affirmed. Christ, however, not only carries with himself the same question (and this in an even more radical way, for he is not only a man like Job but the only-begotten Son of God), but he also carries the greatest possible answer to this question. 8, 35; Luc.
