Jesus prays in thanks to God, who has revealed himself to the lowly.
Today’s Gospel continues to enhance our understanding of discipleship as last week’s Gospel did.
Jesus first prays in thanksgiving to God who has made himself known to Jesus’ disciples. He praises God who has made himself known to the “little ones” and not to the wise and learned.
The second part of this reading focuses on the unity between the Father and the Son. God has made himself known through Jesus, and in knowing Jesus, we come to know the Father.
