23. Phinehas son of Eleazar is third in glory because of his zeal in the fear of the Lord, because he stood firm when the people revolted, with a staunch and courageous heart; and in this way made expiation for Israel.





“Quanto mais te deixares enraizar na santa humildade, tanto mais íntima será a comunicação da tua alma com Deus”. São Padre Pio de Pietrelcina
