Biography
According to those who have worked closely with him, what “undoubtedly” keeps the cardinal focused, especially amid conflict, “is his devotion to meditating on the word of God.” Close collaborators also observe that his “teaching and preaching, his public addresses and his messages have at their very core the Gospel.” Pizzaballa’s perspective is not so much one of exegesis as of a living encounter with Christ through Scripture. “The Word of God is a love letter written for us by Him who knows us like no one else: by reading it, we hear His voice again and receive His message for us,” he told the faithful in January 2024, encouraging them to celebrate the Sunday of the Word of God. Without a relationship with Scripture,” he confessed at a meeting with Italian priests and seminarians at the beginning of 2024, “in these months [of war] I would be lost. (…) It is a Word that gives life, that guides and sustains you. … I believe that for a believer this is the essential starting point; otherwise, our words are merely human words.” The cardinal maintains that “We, especially Catholics, are very good at pastoral programs and so many other activities, which are good. But we need to recover a relationship with the Word of God, because in this—naturally together with the Eucharist and the Sacraments—we find the source and font of our hope, and of our relationship with Jesus. When we lose everything, the only thing we can hold on to is this relationship, which helps us not so much to resolve problems but to remain in them with that comfort and that presence. We need to touch, but we also need to listen to the Word, which comes into us and introduces us into a relationship, and this is the heart of the life of faith.”
