Msgr. Pope on Epiphanytide

"This [past] week at daily Mass we have been reading various Gospels. To some they may appear as arbitrarily selected. But they are not; they are an extension of the Feast of the Epiphany and this week that we [were] in is called 'Epiphanytide.' Epiphany, as many know, means, 'manifestation.' As such, the gospels of this past week bid us to reflect on the way Christ is manifest to us and to the early disciples. There is here, no attempt to provide a full Christology. Rather certain 'windows' or images of Christ are given to us that we may more fully recognize who he is."

In a recent commentary, Monsignor Charles Pope (pastor of Holy Comforter-Saint Cyprian Parish, Washington, DC) reflected on how the gospel readings during Epiphanytide reflect these truths about Jesus.
