"We have seen incredible things today"
Light is sweet and it is good to see the sun with these eyes of flesh...; that is why Moses said: «And God saw the light and he said that it was good» (Gn 1:4)...
But how good it is for us to reflect on the great, the true and unchanging light "that enlightens everyone coming into the world" (Jn 1:9), namely Christ, the world's Savior and redeemer. Having disclosed himself before the eyes of the prophets, he became man and entered into the lowest depths of human existence. It is of him that the prophet David spoke: "Chant praise to God's name. Prepare a way for him who rises towards the west, whose name is the Lord; exult in his presence" (cf. Ps 68[67],5 Vg.). And Isaiah, too, cried out: "People who sit in darkness, behold this light. For you who dwell in the land of the shadow of death, a light will shine" (cf. 9:1)...
And so the light of the sun that is seen by these eyes of flesh makes known the spiritual Sun of Righteousness (Ml 3:20), the sweetest of all to rise on those who have the happiness of being taught by him and seeing him with their fleshly eyes when he dwelt among us like any ordinary man. Nevertheless, he was not just an ordinary man in that he was born true God, able to give back sight to the blind, cause the lame to walk, enable the deaf to hear, cleanse lepers and restore the dead to life by his word (Lk 7:22).
