14th Sunday in Ordinary Time
"Rabbi" means "teacher". "Disciple" means "student". In Israel, 2,000 years ago, there were a couple formulaic statements that a rabbi would use to call a disciple and then invite that disciple to take on the rabbi's worldview and become like him (one statement we find in today's Gospel!). Then at the end of this period of formation, the disciple is sent out to teach others what he learned from his rabbi. We are disciples of the Great Rabbi, and Jesus has sent us to witness to what we have seen, heard, learned and experienced!
