This part of Sirach stood out to me in light of current events in the Church: "No one does he command to act unjustly, to none does he give license to sin."

And I wonder how many went to parishes that used the "short form" of the readings that excise the harder sayings of Jesus about Gehenna and divorce and remarriage. It's scandalous the Novus Ordo provides the option for a bowlderized Scripture reading to be proclaimed.
