First source report

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Pope Leo XIV reflected on the parable of the workers invited to the vineyard during the Angelus prayer on Sunday, September 20. Speaking to pilgrims in St. Peter's Square, the Pope used the Gospel story to describe how people often resist a more generous form of justice and a greater love.

The Pope noted that the parable depicts different groups of workers, some laboring all day and others only for a few hours or starting in the evening. He explained that God's plans are much larger and more merciful than human conceptions of justice. Referring to the prophet Isaiah, Leo XIV encouraged people to abandon crooked paths and return to the Lord, who offers mercy and forgiveness.
