Fr. Mike clarifies the meaning behind Mattathias&#39; zealous attack against the Greeks and his fellow Jews who were not obeying God&#39;s laws. From our reading of Sirach, Fr. Mike reminds us to remember the needs of the poor, and to be careful when forming friendships. Today&#39;s readings are 1 Maccabees 2, Sirach 4-6, and Proverbs 22:1-4.
