The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say,‘ Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’ But wisdom is proved right by her deeds.”

Then Levi gave a huge banquet for Jesus at his house. A large crowd of tax collectors and others were eating with them.But the Pharisees and their teachers of the law complained to Jesus’ disciples. They said,“ Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

One Sabbath day, Jesus went to eat in the house of a well- known Pharisee. While he was there, he was being carefully watched.

Later Jesus was having dinner at Matthew’s house. Many tax collectors and sinners came. They ate with Jesus and his disciples.The Pharisees saw this. So they asked the disciples,“ Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”

All the people saw this. They began to whisper among themselves. They said,“ Jesus has gone to be the guest of a sinner.”

All the people who heard Jesus’ words agreed that God’s way was right. Even the tax collectors agreed. These people had all been baptized by John.

The tax collectors and sinners were all gathering around to hear Jesus.But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law were whispering among themselves. They said,“ This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”

But when the Son of Man came, he ate and drank as you do. And you say,‘ This fellow is always eating and drinking far too much. He’s a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’All who follow wisdom prove that wisdom is right.”One of the Pharisees invited Jesus to have dinner with him. So he went to the Pharisee’s house. He took his place at the table.

But there are those God has chosen, both Jews and Greeks. To them Christ is God’s power and God’s wisdom.The foolish things of God are wiser than human wisdom. The weakness of God is stronger than human strength.Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when God chose you. Not many of you were considered wise by human standards. Not many of you were powerful. Not many of you belonged to important families.But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise. God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.God chose the things of this world that are common and looked down on. God chose things considered unimportant to do away with things considered important.So no one can boast to God.

Lord, how great are the things you do! How wise your thoughts are!Here is something that people without sense don’t know. Here is what foolish people don’t understand.

Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding.

Each of us should please our neighbors. Let us do what is good for them in order to build them up.

Then I looked and heard the voice of millions and millions of angels. They surrounded the throne. They surrounded the living creatures and the elders.In a loud voice they were saying,“ The Lamb, who was put to death, is worthy! He is worthy to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength! He is worthy to receive honor and glory and praise!”All creatures in heaven, on earth, under the earth, and on the sea were speaking. The whole creation was speaking. I heard all of them say,“ Praise and honor belong to the one who sits on the throne and to the Lamb! Glory and power belong to God for ever and ever!”The four living creatures said,“ Amen.” And the elders fell down and worshiped.

A dinner was given at Bethany to honor Jesus. Martha served the food. Lazarus was among the people at the table with Jesus.Then Mary took about a pint of pure nard. It was an expensive perfume. She poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped them with her hair. The house was filled with the sweet smell of the perfume.But Judas Iscariot didn’t like what Mary did. He was one of Jesus’ disciples. Later he was going to hand Jesus over to his enemies. Judas said,“ Why wasn’t this perfume sold? Why wasn’t the money given to poor people? It was worth a year’s pay.”He didn’t say this because he cared about the poor. He said it because he was a thief. Judas was in charge of the money bag. He used to help himself to what was in it.“ Leave her alone,” Jesus replied.“ The perfume was meant for the day I am buried.You will always have the poor among you. But you won’t always have me.”

They said,“ Amen! May praise and glory and wisdom be given to our God for ever and ever. Give him thanks and honor and power and strength. Amen!”

Anyone who understands what is right keeps wisdom in view. But the eyes of a foolish person look everywhere else.

I am by far the least important of all the Lord’s holy people. But he gave me the grace to preach to the Gentiles about the unlimited riches that Christ gives.God told me to make clear to everyone how the mystery came about. In times past it was kept hidden in the mind of God, who created all things.He wanted the rulers and authorities in the heavenly world to come to know his great wisdom. The church would make it known to them.
