Catholic Daily Readings and Reflection | Tuesday of the Second Week of Lent | March 3, 2026
Religion is the perfect hiding place for hypocrites.
Jesus sees the scribes and Pharisees sitting in Moses' seat, teaching with authority, binding heavy burdens on others while refusing to lift a finger themselves. He sees their widened phylacteries and lengthened tassels, their love of honors and titles.
Do and observe whatever they tell you, but do not follow their example.
Isaiah delivers God's verdict: Hear the word of the Lord, you rulers of Sodom. Your sacrifices mean nothing because your hands are full of blood. Wash yourselves clean. Learn to do good. Make justice your aim.
Whoever exalts himself will be humbled. Whoever humbles himself will be exalted.
