Como «Evangelio pneumático», el Evangelio de Juan no sólo proporciona una especie de transcripción taquigráfica de las palabras y del camino de Jesús… - Benedict XVI
" "Como «Evangelio pneumático», el Evangelio de Juan no sólo proporciona una especie de transcripción taquigráfica de las palabras y del camino de Jesús, sino que, en virtud de la comprensión que se obtiene en el recordar, nos acompaña más allá del aspecto exterior hasta la profundidad de la palabra y de los acontecimientos, esa profundidad que viene de Dios y nos conduce a Él. El Evangelio es, como tal, «recuerdo», y eso significa: se atiene a la realidad que ha sucedido y no es una composición épica sobre Jesús, una alteración de los sucesos históricos. Más bien nos muestra verdaderamente a Jesús, tal como era y, precisamente de este modo, nos muestra a Aquel que no sólo era, sino que es; Aquel que en todos los tiempos puede decir en presente: «Yo soy». «Os aseguro que antes de que Abraham naciera, Yo soy» (Jn 8, 58). Este Evangelio nos muestra al verdadero Jesús, y lo podemos utilizar tranquilamente como fuente sobre Jesús.

Mary is a woman who loves. How could it be otherwise? As a believer who in faith thinks with God's thoughts and wills with God's will, she cannot fail to be a woman who loves. We sense this in her quiet gestures, as recounted by the infancy narratives in the Gospel. We see it in the delicacy with which she recognizes the need of the spouses at Cana and makes it known to Jesus. We see it in the humility with which she recedes into the background during Jesus' public life, knowing that the Son must establish a new family and that the Mother's hour will come only with the Cross, which will be Jesus' true hour (cf. Jn 2:4; 13:1). When the disciples flee, Mary will remain beneath the Cross (cf. Jn 19:25-27); later, at the hour of Pentecost, it will be they who gather around her as they wait for the Holy Spirit (cf. Acts 1:14).
