Det var p\u00e5 denne dagen, 9. januar, at jeg feiret min aller f\u00f8rste messe, min primitz, og i \u00e5r 2000 var det ogs\u00e5 samme s\u00f8ndag, festen for Herrens d\u00e5p. Jeg har notatene fra min preken den dagen, men har ikke tenkt \u00e5 se p\u00e5 dem – jeg hadde ikke mye tid eller krefter til \u00e5 tenke p\u00e5 prekenen den dagen, og ingen nevnte for meg at det er vanlig at en annen prekst preker i en slik f\u00f8rste messe.<\/p>\n
I \u00e5r har jeg p\u00e5 nytt sett p\u00e5 en preken av den hellige Gregor av Nazianz (300-tallet) p\u00e5 denne festen, der han bl.a. pr\u00f8ver \u00e5 sette seg inn i Johannes d\u00f8perens tanker denne dagen:<\/p>\n
… Kristus blir opplyst [i d\u00e5pen], la oss skinne sammen med ham! Kristus d\u00f8pes, la oss g\u00e5 ned i d\u00e5pens bad sammen med ham! Johannes er i ferd med \u00e5 d\u00f8pe, Jesus n\u00e6rmer seg. Muligens er det for \u00e5 helliggj\u00f8re d\u00f8peren, men helt klart er det for \u00e5 helliggj\u00f8re den gamle Adam og begrave ham helt og holdent i vannet. Men f\u00f8r han helliggj\u00f8r dem og for deres skyld, helliggj\u00f8r han elven Jordan. P\u00e5 samme m\u00e5te som han var \u00c5nd og kj\u00f8d, slik innvier han ved \u00c5nd og vann. <\/p>\n
D\u00f8peren vegrer seg, Jesus st\u00e5r p\u00e5 sitt. \u201dJeg har behov for \u00e5 bli d\u00f8pt av deg\u201d, sier lampen til solen, r\u00f8sten til ordet, brudgommens venn til brudgommen, den st\u00f8rste av dem som er f\u00f8dt av kvinner, til den f\u00f8rstef\u00f8dte av all skapningen, han som hoppet i morsliv, til ham som allerede i morsliv ble tilbedt, han som har g\u00e5tt forut og igjen skal g\u00e5 foran, til ham som n\u00e5 blir \u00e5penbart og som atter en gang skal \u00e5penbares. \u201dJeg har behov for \u00e5 bli d\u00f8pt av deg\u201d, underforst\u00e5tt: \u201dog for din skyld\u201d, for han visste nemlig at han skulle motta martyriets d\u00e5p, eller, p\u00e5 samme m\u00e5te som Peter, visste han at det ikke bare var hans f\u00f8tter som skulle vaskes. ….<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
