Fr Toby looks at the cast of characters to whom so much of the dialogue of Jesus is directed - the Pharisees, Scribes and Sadducees - and invites us to a more nuanced understanding lest we veer into anti-Semitism.

WORD FOR TODAY is broadcast live on Radio Maria on weekdays at 1:15pm and is rebroadcast at 12:15am the following day. In it our Priest Director Fr Toby gives a reflection, drawn from the Mass readings of the day.
