In the Sound of Music, there’s a song entitled: “Maria”. In that song the Mother Abbess sings: “How do you solve a problem like Maria?” Although the song presents Maria as an enigma, it does have a hint of exasperation. In today’s gospel Jesus doesn’t give a hint. He makes it very clear how exasperated he was with his disciples inability to understand what he had been saying concerning his death and resurrection.
