Scripture Reflection
as Jesus passed on from there , he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the customs post . He said to him , “ Follow me .” And he got up and followed him . While he was at table in his house , many tax collectors and sinners came and sat with Jesus and his disciples . The Pharisees saw this and said to his disciples , “ Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners ?” He heard this and said , “ Those who are well do not need a physician , but the sick do .” Go and learn the meaning of the words , “ I desire mercy , not sacrifice . I did not come to call the righteous but sinners .” ( Matthew 9:9-13 )
