Lk 14: 15-24: The parable speaks about
an eschatological final gathering into God’s community of salvation. For this
heavenly banquet which will take place at the end of time, Jesus sends out the
invitations. The time to respond is now! Those who are invited (in the parable
the cream layer of the Jewish people) seem to have rejected the invitation on
the false pretexts their own concerns. The second invitation to the Jewish
people who are poor, crippled, outcasts and the marginalized and the third
invitation to the gentiles indicate the togetherness of a wider community of
God.
