The Catholic Church teaches that in order to understand the Scriptures, we must start with the literal sense - in other words, how the original hearers of the text would have understood it. That is our aim in this podcast - to help understand what the gospel writers (and more importantly, Jesus) were intending to communicate in today's reading, as well as providing links to the Catechism. Each episode is short and designed to be listened to before or after attending daily Mass.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-17T08:17:03.005151+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/daily-gospel-exegesis-774948"},"episode":{"title":"11th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year A) - Matt 9:36-10:8","slug":"11th-sunday-in-ordinary-time-year-a-matt-9-36-10-8","published_at":"2026-06-13T18:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/daily-gospel-exegesis-774948/11th-sunday-in-ordinary-time-year-a-matt-9-36-10-8","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/daily-gospel-exegesis-774948","url":"https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/daily-gospel-exegesis/episodes/11th-Sunday-in-Ordinary-Time-Year-A---Matt-936-108-ef4sfq","audio_url":"https://anchor.fm/s/1025ef1c/podcast/play/14888890/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2025-10-15%2F51526b40-cfcb-2314-7c08-6d8c57d054aa.mp3","summary":"To support the ministry and access exclusive content, go to: ⁠⁠⁠http://patreon.com/logicalbiblestudy⁠⁠⁠ For complete verse-by-verse audio commentaries from Logical Bible Study, go to: ⁠⁠⁠https://mysoundwise.com/publishers/1677296682850p Matt 9:36-10:8 - 'The harvest is rich, but the labourers are few.' Catechism of the Catholic Church Paragraphs: - 2611 (In 'Jesus teaches us how to pray') - The prayer of faith consists not only in saying “Lord, Lord,” but in disposing the heart to do the will of the Father. Jesus calls his disciples to bring into their prayer this concern for cooperating with the divine plan. - 543 (In 'The Proclamation of the Kingdom of God') - Everyone is called to enter the kingdom. First announced to the children of Israel, this messianic kingdom is intended to accept men of all nations (abbreviated). - 1509 (In 'Heal the Sick') - “Heal the sick!” The Church has received this charge from the Lord and strives to carry it out by taking care of the sick as well as by accompanying them with her prayer of intercession. She believes in the life-giving presence of Christ, the physician of souls and bodies (abbreviated). - 2121 (In 'Irreligion') - Simony is defined as the buying or selling of spiritual things. To Simon the magician, who wanted to buy the spiritual power he saw at work in the apostles, St. Peter responded: “Your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain God’s gift with money!” Peter thus held to the words of Jesus: “You received without pay, give without pay.” It is impossible to appropriate to oneself spiritual goods and behave toward them as their owner or master, for they have their source in God. One can receive them only from him, without payment. - 2443 (In 'Love for the Poor') - God blesses those who come to the ai…","meta_description":"To support the ministry and access exclusive content, go to: ⁠⁠⁠http://patreon.com/logicalbiblestudy⁠⁠⁠ For complete verse-by-verse audio commentaries fro…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1423,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/daily-gospel-exegesis-774948/episodes/11th-sunday-in-ordinary-time-year-a-matt-9-36-10-8/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/daily-gospel-exegesis-774948/11th-sunday-in-ordinary-time-year-a-matt-9-36-10-8.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
