Broiled Fish
II does seem a little out of tune
with lilies and hyacinths, doesn’t
it? We're not ashamed of it,
though, because we maintain that
our particular broiled fish does fit
in with the Easter picture. We’re
talking about that morsel of
broiled fish that was eaten by the
Lord Jesus after His resurrection.
The Apostles had been fishing
on the Sea of Tiberias when Jesus
called to them front the shore and
they recognize^ Him.
"As soon as they were come to
land, they saw a fire of coals there,
and fish laid thereon, and bread,
. . . Jesus saith unto them. Come
and dine. And none of the disciples
durst ask Him, Who art thou?
knowing that it was the Lord.
Jesus then conieth, and taketh
bread, and giveth them, and fish
likewise. This is now the third
time that Jesus shewed Himself to
his disciples, after that he was
risen from, the dead. So when they
had dined Jesus saith to Simon
Peter," etc. King James Version: j
(John 21:9-15).
How easily St. John tells the j
story. The disciples didn’t have to !
get a fire going. The Lord had |
done it for them. They found |
everything ready, and then Jesus I
ate with them—broiled fish and
bread.
Now how can a ghost eat? If
a ghost were to try eating, the
people with him would see every
i mouthful sliding down and dang
ling somwhere in space. In fact, ;
why should a ghost eat, since it
lias no body to nourish?
It looks as though Jesus used j
this as still another occasion of
showing that He had risen from \
the dead. See how the Gospelj;
keep stressing the fact that the ,
risen Lord was not a ghost, hut His J
former self—body and soul—en- !
dowed with a special glory.
We are told that the tomb was
empty; whereas a ghost would
have left a corpse in the grave.
Then came the apparition on j
Easter night, when the disciples j
recognized Jesus in the breaking
of bread. Next, the time when the
doubting Thomas put his finger
into the nail-wounds, and thrust
his hand into the gaping side. And
then this: the eating of broiled
fish.
These are a few of the many ar- ;
guments which lead us Catholics 1
to believe that Jesus Christ arose j
triumphant from the tomb, body j
and soul, after He had been de- i
posited there dead on that first j
Good Friday night.
If it's anything Catholic, ask a
Catholic!

1 Safeguarding money against |

1 convert your travel funds |

| American Express Travelers |
| Cheques. They are readily |
| spendable as cash, and if lost |
§ or stolen, the amount in- |

1 The cost of the protection |
§ Is but 76c on each |100. |
§ Minimum 40c. There is no |

f them invaluable. This is |
