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":"Wednesday of Week 9 in Ordinary Time - Mark 12: 18-27","slug":"wednesday-of-week-9-in-ordinary-time-mark-12-18-27","published_at":"2026-06-02T18:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/daily-gospel-exegesis-774948/wednesday-of-week-9-in-ordinary-time-mark-12-18-27","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/daily-gospel-exegesis-774948","url":"https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/daily-gospel-exegesis/episodes/Wednesday-of-Week-9-in-Ordinary-Time---Mark-12-18-27-eeq5cb","audio_url":"https://anchor.fm/s/1025ef1c/podcast/play/14537547/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2025-7-16%2F81260516-0084-ddeb-22f1-dbe02b334c0e.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 Mark 12: 18-27 - 'The God of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob is the God of the living.' Catechism of the Catholic Church Paragraphs: - 993 (in 'The Progressive Nature of the Resurrection') - The Pharisees and many of the Lord's contemporaries hoped for the resurrection. Jesus teaches it firmly. To the Sadducees who deny it he answers, \"Is not this why you are wrong, that you know neither the scriptures nor the power of God?\" Faith in the resurrection rests on faith in God who \"is not God of the dead, but of the living.\" - 1619 (in 'Virginity for the Sake of the Kingdom') - Virginity for the sake of the kingdom of heaven is an unfolding of baptismal grace, a powerful sign of the supremacy of the bond with Christ and of the ardent expectation of his return, a sign which also recalls that marriage is a reality of this present age which is passing away.
