Ordinary 28
Heb 4:12-13
NT teaching about Word of God is rooted in tradition of Prophets. The Word of God is effective. The people to whom the Letter to the Hebrews was directed seem to have grown lax in thier acceptance of the Gospel, perhaps boredom or stagnation. There is judgement in the Word of God.
To the Israelites, to hear meant to obey. The First Reading from Wisdom reminds us how valuable the Word of God for his people.
Possible topic is Church as Prophet proclaiming God's Word afresh in every generation.
