Fr. Jeffrey Kirby of South Carolina reflected on the Parable of the Wedding Banquet, a story about a king who banishes improperly dressed guests to a wedding.
'But when the king came in to meet the guests, he saw a man there not dressed in a wedding garment. The king said to him, 'My friend, how is it that you came in here without a wedding garment?' But he was reduced to silence. Then the king said to his attendants, 'Bind his hands and feet, and cast him into the darkness outside, where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.' Many are invited, but few are chosen' .
The door to the banquet is 'opened wide, and everyone is encouraged to come in,' said Kirby. And while many accepted the invitation and filled the hall, 'some refused to wear the wedding garment.' This may seem confusing to modern readers of the verse — yet 'at that time, such garments were offered as a gift by the host,' he said. 'It was an offense and an insult not to wear the garment.
