Pànta, everything
He looked around at everything. Jesus looked at everything - in Greek pànta – around him, he wanted to see with his own eyes what on earth stands so powerfully between God and man, between man and God.
Things, that's what. Things that are around us inside and outside the temple. Preoccupations about the quantity of things or the feeling of inadequancy when we are without those things divide man and God. Things have to be bought and sold, they require our attention, our preoccupation, our time, our will, our choices. Things require our energy and do not give us any in return.
Before God and our own heart, the time and energy dedicated to things fall into nothingness without bearing useful fruits. Things occupy our attention, they burden us with worries and anxiety and make us think that it is never the right time to give fruits of love, praise, gratitude, grace, tenderness, compassion. That is exactly what happened to the figs to which Jesus asked fruits out of season. Things stand between us and God, between us and intimate prayer with him, between us and gratitude in praising, between us and love. That is why it is never the right season, it is never the right time to donate and to taste the fruits of love and beauty with God and our fellow human beings.
