- Abstract
- The commandment: Honor your father and mother...has its origin in the grace of God. Elders are witnesses and mediators in their seniority of the faithfulness of God. In the New Covenant the elderly witness to the priority of grace and tradition which sustains the community. In their frailty they also point us to the frailty and limitation with which God became identified in the humanity of Jesus Christ for our sake. The aged witness to us, mediate by their existence, the mystery of grace. In the worship of a weak, dependent people, God is there in grace.
