Fr. Cajetan Cuddy, O.P. reflects on Matthew 1 and the naming of Jesus. The angel commands Joseph to name the child Jesus because He will save His people from their sins. Jesus is not merely a title or a symbol—His name reveals who He is and what He does.

In a world where words often deceive, God does not lie. Names correspond to reality. Jesus means Savior, and Emmanuel means God with us. In Christ, salvation is not theoretical but sacramental and present now. The One who was born of the Virgin still saves, still speaks truth, and still remains with His people.
