Fr. Mike breaks down the dramatic events from our reading of 1 Maccabees today, including; Jonathan’s new role as high priest, Demetrius’ defeat in battle, and King Alexander Epiphanes formidable alliance with Egypt formed by marrying Cleopatra. In Sirach, Fr. Mike reminds us that the good qualities wives are called to possess are also applicable to husbands. Today we read 1 Maccabees 10, Sirach 26-27, and Proverbs 23:5-8.
