The Gospel parable underscores Jesus’ teaching on the proper use of wealth and sensitivity to the plight of a fellow human being. The contrast between the rich man (Dives) and the poor man Lazarus highlights the great divide between the two. Dives enjoys the comfort and luxury of life, and Lazarus lies helpless and suffering at his door. In the other life, however, Lazarus enjoys peace and comfort at the bosom of Abraham, while Dives is tormented in the netherworld. The parable is a strong warning to those who will not listen to Moses and the prophets and Jesus himself who call on everyone to listen to the cries of the poor. Kahlil Gibran, the Lebanese-American author, writes: “A man’s true wealth is the good he does in the world.”
Maestro, ¡qué bien se está aquí! Vamos a hacer tres tiendas, una para ti, otra para Moisés y otra para Elías
