Homily
At the beginning of this Gospel story, two processions meet at the gates of the small village of Nain, near Nazareth. One brings life, the other brings death. Jesus, proclaiming the Word of God, approaches the town, followed by His disciples and a large crowd. As He arrives at the gates of the town, a widow comes out, accompanied by a large crowd, to bury her only son.
