Topsy-Turvy: Living In The Biblical World
Gospel Sermons For Sundays After Pentecost (Middle Third) Cycle C
Rich man, poor man -- stories of contrast. It's a familiar theme in literature. Remember several years back when Public Television, on Masterpiece Theater, ran the series called "Upstairs, Downstairs"? It was kind of a British soap opera portraying the lives of the occupants of an English manorhouse: the masters and the servants.
Today we have Jesus' version of "rich man, poor man," the story of the rich man and Lazarus. It, too, is a story of contrasts. Not so much upstairs, downstairs, but rather inside, outside.
