Today, as we celebrate the First Sunday after Epiphany, the Church presents to us the image of the “Boy Christ in the Temple”, a passage that is as profound as it is mysterious. It is in this moment, at the age of twelve, that we catch a glimpse of the eternal wisdom of the Son of God, fully human and fully divine. As the Scriptures recount, Christ, in a moment of profound clarity, declares to ...
