PRESENTAZIONE DI GESÙ AL TEMPIO (CANDELORA)

Mercoledì 2 febbraio alle ore 20.00:

Benedizione delle candele,
processione e S. Messa
Dal Proto vangelo di Giacomo (15,1-3): Il sesto giorno entrarono in Betlemme, dove passarono il giorno settimo. L’ottavo giorno circoncisero il bambino e gli diedero nome “Gesù”, come era stato chiamato dall’angelo prima che fosse concepito. Terminati i giorni della purificazione di Maria, secondo la Legge di Mosè, Giuseppe condusse il bambino al tempio del Signore. Quando il bambino ricevette la “peritomè” (“peritomo” significa circoncisione), offrirono un paio di tortore o due piccini di colombe..

 
 
 

Il 2 febbraio la Chiesa cattolica celebra la presentazione al Tempio di Gesù Lc 2,22-39, popolarmente chiamata festa della Candelora, perché in questo giorno si benedicono le candele, simbolo di Cristo “luce per illuminare le genti”, come il bambino Gesù venne chiamato dal vecchio Simeone al momento della presentazione al Tempio di Gerusalemme, che era prescritta dalla Legge giudaica per i primogeniti maschi.

La festa è anche detta della Purificazione di Maria, perché, secondo l’usanza ebraica, una donna era considerata impura per un periodo di 40 giorni dopo il parto di un maschio e doveva andare al Tempio per purificarsi: il 2 febbraio cade appunto 40 giorni dopo il 25 dicembre, giorno della nascita di Gesù.

Anticamente questa festa veniva celebrata il 14 febbraio (40 giorni dopo l’Epifania), e la prima testimonianza al riguardo ci è data da Egeria nel suo Itinerarium Egeriae (cap. 26). La denominazione di “Candelora” data popolarmente alla festa deriva dalla somiglianza del rito del Lucernare, di cui parla Egeria: “Si accendono tutte le lampade e i ceri, facendo così una luce grandissima” (Itinerarium 24, 4), con le antiche fiaccolate rituali che si facevano nei Lupercali (antichissima festività romana che si celebrava proprio a metà febbraio). Ma la somiglianza più significativa tra le due festività si ha nell’idea della purificazione: nell’una relativa all’usanza ebraica:

« Quando una donna sarà rimasta incinta e darà alla luce un maschio, sarà immonda per sette giorni; sarà immonda come nel tempo delle sue regole. L’ottavo giorno si circonciderà il bambino. Poi essa resterà ancora trentatré giorni a purificarsi dal suo sangue; non toccherà alcuna cosa santa e non entrerà nel santuario, finché non siano compiuti i giorni della sua purificazione »   (Levitico 12,2-4

Quando vien la Candelora
da l’inverno sémo fóra,
ma se piove o tira vénto,
ne l’inverno semo drénto
