comunidades cristianas “daban testimonio de la resurrección del http://delamanodemaria.com/?p=9825

a todos con mucho agrado”.
No olvidemos que hoy concluye la “Octava” de Pascua y, por
tanto, la celebración que comenzó el domingo de Pascua de
Resurrección y se prolongó hasta hoy. De ahí que la lectura
evangélica (Jn 20,19-31) nos presenta las primeras dos
apariciones de Jesús a sus discípulos. La primera el mismo día de
la Resurrección, encontrándose encerrados en la estancia
superior, por temor a las autoridades judías, luego de que Pedro y
Juan encontraran la tumba vacía. La segunda tiene lugar una
semana después (un día como hoy), pero esta vez los discípulos
estaban fortalecidos por la presencia del Resucitado. Ahora la
controversia giraba en torno a la incredulidad de Tomás.
Este pasaje, que es la conclusión del evangelio según san Juan, es
sumamente denso y lleno de símbolos. Nos limitaremos a dos,
comenzando con el segundo: la incredulidad de Tomás.
La pregunta obligada es: ¿Dónde estaba Tomás cuando el Señor
se apareció a los discípulos por primera vez? De seguro estaba
vagando, triste y desilusionado porque Jesús había muerto; había
visto esfumarse en una horas todas sus expectativas, sus sueños
mesiánicos. Se había separado del grupo. Por eso no tuvo la
experiencia de Jesús resucitado; como nos pasa a nosotros
cuando nos alejamos de la Iglesia. Cuando regresó se negaba a
creer porque no lo había visto. Pero esta vez no se alejó, se
mantuvo en comunión con sus hermanos, se congregó, y entonces
tuvo el encuentro con Jesús resucitado. Igual nos pasa a nosotros

celebración eucarística; los ojos de la fe nos permiten tener un
