Kozak Sacristan Mr. Peter Mrowca Convent 5434 S. Lockwood Ave. Chicago, IL tel. (773) Reflecting on God s Word Luke sketches his characters quickly but with precision, telling us all we need to know to appreciate the situation. Zacchaeus was chief tax collector, a wealthy man, and short. Most important, he was a seeker, trying to catch sight of Jesus. Because of the crowd Jesus attracted as he was passing through town and because of his height, Zacchaeus had to climb a tree. His stature might not have been the only reason why. Tax collectors were nobody s favorite; they collaborated with the Roman occupiers and became rich to the detriment of their own people. Up a tree would have been the safest location for a tax collector in a crowd. What makes this story so appealing is the joy that both Jesus and Zacchaeus show in meeting each other. Come down quickly, Jesus says, for today I must stay at your house (Luke 19:50). Zacchaeus drops quickly and receives Jesus with joy. The crowd, however, does not share in this joy. They grumble about a prophet eating with a sinner! But Zacchaeus holds his ground, saying that if notice the if he has defrauded anyone, he will make amends fourfold, keeping to the strictest restitution demanded by the law. Jesus, not to be overdone in generosity, proclaims: Today salvation has come to this house (19:9), adding that this is why he came in the first place, to seek and save what was lost (19:10). Sometimes we can find ourselves up a tree, even in our relationship with God. Remember Zacchaeus. Jesus brought him down safely and restored him to the community. This is why he still comes into our lives: to bring salvation to our own house. James A. Wallace, C.SS.R. Copyright 2012, World Library Publications. All rights reserved.
