 tied, and a colt with her : loose 
 them, and bring them unto Me. 
 And if any man say ought unto 
 you, ye shall say. The Lord 
 hath need of them ; and straight- 
 way he will send them. All 
 this was done, that it might be 
 fulfilled which was spoken by 
 the Prophet, saying. Tell ye the 
 
 daughter of Sion, Behold, thy 
 King Cometh unto thee, meek, 
 and sitting upon an ass, and a 
 colt the foal of an ass. And the 
 disciples went, and did as Jesus 
 commanded them ; and brought 
 the ass, and the colt, and put on 
 them their clothes, and they set 
 Him thereon. And a very great 
 multitude spread their garments 
 in the way; others cut down 
 branches from the trees, and 
 strawed them in the way. And 
 the multitudes that went before, 
 and that followed, cried, saying, 
 Hosanna to the Son of David; 
 Blessed is He that cometh in the 
 Name of the Lord ; Hosanna in 
 the highest. And when He was 
 come into Jerusalem, all the city 
 was moved, saying. Who is this.'*

 ND there shall be

 and in the stars ; 
 and upon the 
 earth distress of nations, with 
 perplexity, the sea and the waves 
 roaring ; men's hearts failing 
 them for fear, and for looking 
 after those things which are 
 coming on the earth : for the 
 powers of heaven shall be shaken. 
 And then shall they see the Son 
 of Man coming in a cloud with 
 power and great glory. And 
 
 when these things begin to come 
 to pass, then look up, and lift 
 up your heads ; for your redemp- 
 tion draweth nigh. And He 
 spake to them a parable. Behold 
 the fig-tree, and all the trees ; 
 when they now shoot forth, ye 
 see and know of your own selves 
 that summer is now nigh at hand. 
 So likewise ye, when ye see these 
 things come to pass, know ye 
 that the Kingdom of God is nigh 
 at hand. Verily I say unto you. 
 This generation shall not pass

 My Words shall not pass away.

 OW when John 
 had heard in the 
 prison the works 
 of Christ, he sent 
 two of his disci- 
 ples, and said unto Him, Art Thou 
 He that should come, or do we 
 look for another ? Jesus an- 
 swered and said unto them, 
 Go and shew John again those 
 things which ye do hear and 
 see : The blind receive their 
 sight, and the lame walk, the 
 lepers are cleansed, and the deaf 
 hear, the dead are raised up, and 
 the poor have the Gospel preached 
 to them : And blessed is he who- 
 
 soever shall not be offended in 
 Me. And as they departed, 
 Jesus began to say unto the mul- 
 titudes concerning John, What 
 went ye out into the wilderness 
 to see ? a reed shaken with the 
 wind ? But what went ye out 
 for to see ? a man clothed in 
 soft raiment ? behold, they that 
 wear soft clothing are in kings' 
 houses. But what went ye out 
 for to see ? a prophet ? yea, I 
 say unto you, and more than a 
 prophet. For this is he of 
 whom it is written. Behold, I 
 send My messenger before Thy 
 Face, which shall prepare Thy 
 Way before Thee.

 HIS is the record 
 of John, when the 
 Jews sent Priests 
 and Levites from 
 Jerusalem to ask 
 him, Who art thou ? And he 
 
 confessed, and denied not; but 
 confessed, I am not the Christ. 
 And they asked him, What then? 
 Art thou Elias ? And he saith, 
 I am not. Art thou that Pro- 
 phet? And he answered. No. 
 Then said they unto him. Who 
 
 B 2
 
 C^e &ook of tf)e (S^ospel0. 
 
 art thou ? that we may give an 
 answer to them that sent us. 
 What sayest thou of thyself? He 
 said, I am the voice of one crying 
 in the wilderness, Make straight 
 the Way of the Lord, as said the 
 prophet Esaias. And they which 
 were sent were of the Pharisees. 
 And they asked him, and said 
 unto him, Why baptizest thou 
 then, if thou be not that Christ, 
 
 nor Elias, neither that Prophet? 
 John answered them, saying, 
 I baptize with water : but there 
 standeth One among you. Whom 
 ye know not : He it is Who 
 coming after me is preferred be- 
 fore me. Whose shoe's latchet I 
 am not worthy to unloose. 
 These things were done in 
 Bethabara beyond Jordan, where 
 John was baptizing.

 C|)ri0tma6'©ap. 
 
 St. Jol 
 
 in 1. I, 
 
 N the beginning 
 was the Word, and 
 the Word was 
 with God, and the 
 Word was God. 
 The Same was in the beginning 
 with God. All things were 
 made by Him; and without Him 
 was not anything made that was 
 made. In Him was life, and 
 the life was the Light of men. 
 And the Light shineth in dark- 
 
 ness, and the darkness compre- 
 hended it not. There was a 
 man sent from God, whose name 
 was John. The same came for 
 a witness, to bear witness of the 
 Light, that all men through him 
 might believe. He was not that 
 Light, but was sent to bear wit- 
 ness of that Light. That was 
 the True Light, Which lighteth 
 every man that cometh into the 
 world. He was in the world, 
 and the world was made by 
 Him, and the world knew Him
 
 C!)e &00K of tlje (S^ospels, 
 
 not. He came unto His own, 
 and His own received Him not. 
 But as many as received Him, 
 to them gave He power to be- 
 come the sons of God, even to 
 them that believe on His Name : 
 which were born, not of blood, 
 
 nor of the will of the flesh, nor 
 of the will of man, but of God. 
 And The Word was made Flesh, 
 and dwelt among us (and we 
 beheld His glory, the glory as of 
 the Only-Begotten of the Father) 
 full of grace and truth.

 EHOLD, I send 
 unto you pro- 
 phets, and wise 
 men, and scribes ; 
 and some of them 
 ye shall kill and crucify ; and 
 some of them shall ye scourge 
 in your synagogues, and per- 
 secute them from city to city; 
 that upon you may come all the 
 righteous blood shed upon the 
 earth, from the blood of righteous 
 Abel unto the blood of Zacharias, 
 son of Barachias, whom ye slew 
 
 between the temple and the 
 altar. Verily I say unto you, 
 All these things shall come upon 
 this generation. O Jerusalem, 
 Jerusalem, thou that killest the 
 prophets, and stonest them which 
 are sent unto thee ; how often 
 would I have gathered thy 
 children together, even as a hen 
 gathereth her chickens under 
 her wings, and ye would not ! 
 Behold, your house is left unto 
 you desolate. For I say unto 
 you, Ye shall not see Me hence- 
 forth, till ye shall say. Blessed 
 is He that cometh in the Name 
 of the Lord.

 ESUS said unto 
 Peter, Follow 
 Me. Then Peter, 
 turning about, 
 seeth the disciple 
 whom Jesus loved following ; 
 which also leaned on His Breast 
 at supper, and said, Lord, which 
 is he that betrayeth Thee ? Peter 
 seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, 
 and what shall this man do ? 
 Jesus saith unto him. If I will 
 that he tarry till I come, what is 
 that to thee ? Follow thou Me. 
 Then went this saying abroad 
 
 among the brethren. That that 
 disciple should not die : yet 
 Jesus said not unto him, He 
 shall not die ; but, If I will that 
 he tarry till I come, what is that 
 to thee ? This is the disciple 
 which testifieth of these things, 
 and wrote these things, and we 
 know that his testimony is true. 
 And there are also many other 
 things which Jesus did, the 
 which if they should be written 
 every one, I suppose that even 
 the world itself could not con- 
 tain the books that should be 
 written.

 Joseph in a dream, 
 saying. Arise, and 
 take the Young 
 Child, and His Mother, and flee 
 
 into Egypt, and be thou there 
 until I bring thee word ; for 
 Herod will seek the Young Child 
 to destroy Him. When he arose, 
 he took the Young Child and His 
 Mother by night, and departed 
 into Egypt, and was there until 
 the death of Herod ; that it

 might be fulfilled which was 
 spoken of the Lord by the pro- 
 phet, saying, Out of Egypt have 
 I called My Son. Then Herod, 
 when he saw that he was 
 mocked of the Wise Men, was 
 exceeding wroth ; and sent forth, 
 and slew all the children that 
 were in Bethlehem, and in all 
 the coasts thereof, from two 
 years old and under, according 
 
 to the time which he had 
 diligently inquired of the Wise 
 Men. Then was fulfilled that 
 which was spoken by Jeremy 
 the prophet, saying. In Rama 
 was there a voice heard, lamen- 
 tation, and weeping, and great 
 mourning, Rachel weeping for 
 her children, and would not 
 be comforted, because they are 
 not.

 HE Birth of Jesus 
 Christ was on this 
 wise : When as 
 His Mother Mary 
 was espoused to 
 Joseph, before they came to- 
 gether she was found with child 
 of the Holy Ghost. Then 
 Joseph her husband, being a 
 just man, and not willing to 
 make her a publick example, 
 was minded to put her away 
 privily. But while he thought 
 on these things, behold, the 
 Angel of the Lord appeared unto 
 
 him in a dream, saying, Joseph 
 thou son of David, fear not to 
 take unto thee Mary thy wife; for 
 That Which is conceived in her 
 is of the Holy Ghost : And she 
 shall bring forth a Son, and thou 
 shaltcall His Name JESUS; for 
 He shall save His people from 
 their sins. (Now all this was 
 done, that it might be fulfilled 
 which was spoken of the Lord 
 by the prophet, saying. Behold, 
 a Virgin shall be with child, and 
 shall bring forth a Son, and they 
 shall call His Name Emmanuel, 
 which being interpreted is, God

 OR THE MANIFESTATION OF CHRIST TO THE GENTILES. 
 
 St. Matth. ii. i. 
 
 HEN Jesus was 
 born in Bethle- 
 hem of Judjea, in 
 the days of Herod 
 the king, behold, 
 there came Wise Men from the 
 east to Jerusalem, saying. Where 
 is He that is born King of the 
 Jews ? for we have seen His Star 
 in the east, and are come to wor- 
 ship Him. When Herod the king 
 had heard these things, he was 
 troubled, and all Jerusalem with 
 him . And when he had gathered 
 all the chief priests and scribes of 
 the people together, he demanded 
 of them, where Christ should be 
 born. And they said unto him, 
 In Bethlehem of Judsa : for 
 thus it is written by the prophet. 
 And thou, Bethlehem, in the 
 land of Juda, art not the least 
 among the princes of Juda : for 
 out of thee shall come a Gover- 
 nor that shall rule My people 
 Israel. Then Herod, when he 
 
 had privily called the Wise Men, 
 enquired of them diligently what 
 time the Star appeared. And he 
 sent them to Bethlehem, and said. 
 Go, and search diligently for 
 the Young Child, and when ye 
 have found Him, bring me word 
 again, that I may come and 
 worship Him also. When they 
 had heard the king, they de- 
 parted ; and lo, the Star which 
 they saw in the east went before 
 them, till it came and stood over 
 where the Young Child was. 
 When they saw the Star, they 
 rejoiced with exceeding great 
 joy. And when they were come 
 into the house, they saw the 
 Young Child with Mary His 
 Mother, and fell down and wor- 
 shipped Him : and when they 
 had opened their treasures, they 
 presented unto Him gifts ; gold, 
 and frankincense, and myrrh. 
 And being warned of God in a 
 dream that they should not re- 
 turn to Herod, they departed into 
 their own country another way.

 OW His parents 
 went to Jerusalem 
 every year at the 
 feast of the Pass- 
 
 over. And when 
 
 He was twelve years old, they 
 went up to Jerusalem, after the 
 custom of the feast. And when 
 they had fulfilled the days, as 
 they returned, the Child Jesus 
 tarried behind in Jerusalem; and 
 Joseph and His Mother knew 
 not of it. But they, supposing 
 Him to have been in the com- 
 pany, went a day's journey, and 
 they sought Him among their 
 kinsfolk and acquaintance. And 
 when they found Him not, they 
 turned back again to Jerusalem, 
 seeking Him. And it came to 
 pass, that after three days they 
 found Him in the temple, sitting 
 
 in the midst of the doctors, both 
 hearing them, and asking them 
 questions. And all that heard 
 Him were astonished at His un- 
 derstanding and answers. And 
 when they saw Him, they were 
 amazed : and His Mother said 
 unto Him, Son, why hast Thou 
 thus dealt with us ? behold. Thy 
 father and I have sought Thee 
 sorrowing. And He said unto 
 them. How is it that ye sought 
 Me ? wist ye not that I must be 
 about My Father's business.'^ And 
 they understood not the saying 
 which He spake unto them. And 
 He went down with them, and 
 came to Nazareth, and was sub- 
 ject unto them : but His Mother 
 kept all these sayings in her 
 heart. And Jesus increased in 
 wisdom, and stature, and in favour 
 with God and man.

 ND the third day 
 there was a mar- 
 riage in Cana of 
 Galilee, and the 
 [I Mother of Jesus 
 was there. And both Jesus was 
 called, and His disciples, to the 
 marriage. And when they 
 wanted wine, the Mother of Jesus 
 saith unto Him, They have no 
 wine. Jesus saith unto her. 
 Woman, what have I to do with 
 thee ? Mine hour is not yet come. 
 His Mother saith unto the ser- 
 vants, Whatsoever He saith unto 
 you, do it. And there were set 
 there six water-pots of stone, 
 after the manner of the purifying 
 of the Jews, containing two or 
 three firkins apiece. Jesus saith 
 
 unto them. Fill the water-pots 
 with water. And they filled 
 them up to the brim. And He 
 saith unto them, Draw out now, 
 and bear unto the governor 
 of the feast. And they bare it. 
 When the ruler of the feast had 
 tasted the water that was made 
 wine, and knew not whence it 
 was, (but the servants which drew 
 the water knew,) the governor of 
 the feast called the bridegroom, 
 and saith unto him, Every man 
 at the beginning doth set forth 
 good wine, and when men have 
 well drunk, then that which is 
 worse : but thou hast kept the 
 good wine until now. This be- 
 ginning of miracles did Jesus in 
 Cana of Galilee, and manifested 
 forth His glory, and His disciples 
 believed on Him.

 Moses commanded, for a testi-

 saying. Lord, my servant lieth at

 him, I will come and heal him.

 Lord, I am not worthy that Thou

 am a man under authority, having 
 soldiers under me : and I say 
 unto this man. Go, and he goeth ;

 Cometh ; and to my servant, Do 
 this, and he doeth it. When

 so great faith, no not in Israel 
 And I say unto you, 
 shall come from the

 fell upon a rock, and as soon 
 as it was sprung up, it withered 
 away, because it lacked moisture. 
 And some fell among thorns, and

 and choked it. And other fell

 theymightnotunderstand. Now 
 the parable is this : The seed is 
 the Word of God. Those by 
 the way-side are they that hear; 
 then Cometh the devil, and taketh 
 away the word out of their hearts, 
 lest they should believe, and be 
 
 saved. They on the rock are 
 they, which, when they hear, 
 receive the word with joy ; and 
 these have no root, which for 
 a while believe, and in time of 
 temptation fall away. And that 
 which fell among thorns, are 
 they, which, when they have 
 heard, go forth, and are choked 
 with cares, and riches, and plea- 
 sures of this life, and bring no 
 fruit to perfection. But that on 
 the good ground, are they, which 
 in an honest and good heart, 
 having heard the word, keep it,

 the people wondered. But some 
 of them said, He casteth out 
 devils through Beelzebub, the 
 chief of the devils. And others, 
 tempting Him, sought of Him a 
 sign from heaven. But He, 
 knowing their thoughts, said 
 unto them. Every kingdom di- 
 vided against itself is brought to 
 desolation; and a house divided 
 against a house falleth. If Satan 
 also be divided against himself, 
 how shall his kingdom stand ? 
 because ye say, that I cast out 
 devils through Beelzebub. And 
 if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, 
 by whom do your sons cast them 
 out ? therefore shall they be your 
 judges. But if I with the finger 
 of God cast out devils, no doubt 
 the kingdom of God is come 
 upon you. When a strong man 
 
 armed keepeth his palace, his 
 goods are in peace ; but when a 
 stronger than he shall come upon 
 him, and overcome him,hetaketh 
 from him all his armour wherein 
 he trusted, and dividethhisspoils. 
 He that is not with Me is against 
 Me : and he that gathereth not 
 with Me, scattereth. When the 
 unclean spirit is gone out of a 
 man, he walketh through dry 
 places, seeking rest ; and finding 
 none, he saith, I will return unto 
 my house whence I came out. 
 And when he cometh, he findeth 
 it swept and garnished. Then 
 goeth he and taketh to him seven 
 other spirits more wicked than 
 himself, and they enter in, and 
 dwell there ; and the last state 
 of that man is worse than the 
 first. And it came to pass, as 
 He spake these things, a certain 
 woman of the company lift up 
 her voice, and said unto Him, 
 Blessed is the Womb that bare 
 Thee, and the paps which Thou 
 hast sucked. But He said. Yea, 
 rather, blessed are they that hear 
 the Word of God, and keep it.

 ESUS went over 
 the sea of Galilee, 
 which is the sea 
 of Tiberias. And 
 a great multitude 
 followed Him, because they saw 
 His miracles which He did on 
 them that were diseased. And 
 Jesus went up into a mountain, 
 and there He sat with His dis- 
 ciples. And the Passover, a 
 feast of the Jews, was nigh. 
 When Jesus then lift up His 
 eyes, and saw a great company 
 come unto Him, He saith unto 
 Philip, Whence shall we buy 
 bread, that these may eat ? (And 
 this He said to prove him ; for 
 He Himself knew what He 
 would do.) Philip answered 
 Him, Two hundred penny-worth 
 of bread is not sufficient for 
 them, that every one of them 
 may take a little. One of His 
 disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's 
 brother, saith unto Him, There 
 
 is a lad here, which hath five 
 barley-loaves, and two small 
 fishes : but what are they among 
 so many ? And Jesus said. Make 
 the men sit down. Now there 
 was much grass in the place. 
 So the men sat down, in number 
 about five thousand. And Jesus 
 took the loaves, and when He 
 had given thanks He distributed 
 to the disciples, and the disciples 
 to them that were set down ; 
 and likewise of the fishes as 
 much as they would. When 
 they were filled. He said unto 
 His disciples. Gather up the 
 fragments that remain, that no- 
 thing be lost. Therefore they 
 gathered them together, and 
 filled twelve baskets with the 
 fragments of the five barley- 
 loaves, which remained over and 
 above unto them that had eaten. 
 Then those men, when they had 
 seen the miracle that Jesus did, 
 said. This is of a truth that Pro- 
 phet that should come into the 
 world.

 ESUS said, Which 
 of you convinceth 
 Me of sin ? and 
 if I say the truth, 
 why do ye not 
 Delicve Me ? He that is of God 
 heareth God's words ; ye there- 
 fore hear them not, because ye 
 are not of God. Then answered 
 the Jews, and said unto Him, 
 Say we not well, that Thou art 
 a Samaritan, and hast a devil ? 
 Jesus answered, I have not a 
 devil ; but I honour My Father, 
 and ye do dishonour Me. And 
 I seek not Mine Own glory ; 
 there is One that seeketh and 
 judgeth. Verily, verily, I say 
 unto you. If a man keep My 
 saying, he shall never see death. 
 Then said the Jews unto Him, 
 Now we know that Thou hast 
 a devil : Abraham is dead, and 
 the prophets ; and Thou sayest, 
 If a man keep My saying, he 
 
 shall never taste of death. Art 
 Thou greater than our father 
 Abraham, which is dead ? and 
 the prophets are dead : whom 
 makest Thou Thyself? Jesus 
 answered. If I honour Myself, 
 My honour is nothing ; it is My 
 Father that honoureth Me, of 
 Whom ye say, that He is your 
 God : yet ye have not known 
 Him ; but I know Him : and if 
 I should say, I know Him not, 
 I shall be a liar like unto you ; 
 but I know Him, and keep His 
 saying. Your father Abraham 
 rejoiced to see My day, and he 
 saw it, and was glad. Then 
 said the Jews unto Him, Thou 
 art not yet fifty years old, and 
 hast Thou seen Abraham ? Jesus 
 said unto them. Verily, verily, 
 I say unto you. Before Abraham 
 was, I Am. Then took they up 
 stones to cast at Him : but Jesus 
 hid Himself, and went out of 
 the temple.

 [COMMONLY CALLED PALM SUNDAY.] 
 
 St. Matth. xxvii. i. 
 
 HEN the morning 
 was come, all the 
 chief priests and 
 elders of the peo- 
 ple took counsel 
 against Jesus, to put Him to 
 death. And when they had 
 bound Him, they led Him away, 
 and delivered Him to Pontius 
 Pilate the governour. Then 
 Judas who had betrayed Him, 
 when he saw that He was con- 
 demned, repented himself, and 
 brought again the thirty pieces of 
 silver to the chief priests and 
 elders, saying, I have sinned, in 
 that I have betrayed the innocent 
 blood. And they said, Whatis that 
 to us ? see thou to that. And he 
 cast down the pieces of silver in 
 the temple, and departed, and 
 went and hanged himself. And 
 the chief priests took the silver 
 pieces, and said. It is not lawful 
 for to put them into the treasury, 
 
 because it is the price of blood. 
 And they took counsel, and 
 bought with them the potter's 
 field, to bury strangers in. 
 Wherefore that field was called. 
 The Field of Blood, unto this 
 day. (Then was fulfilled that 
 which was spoken by Jeremy 
 the prophet, saying. And they 
 took the thirty pieces of silver, 
 the price of Him that was valued, 
 Whom they of the children of 
 Israel did value, and gave them 
 for the potter's field, as the Lord 
 appointed me.) And Jesus stood 
 before the governour ; and the 
 governour asked Him, saying, 
 Art Thou the King of the Jews? 
 And Jesus said unto him, Thou 
 sayest. And when He was 
 accused of the chief priests and 
 elders. He answered nothing. 
 Then saith Pilate unto Him, 
 Hearest Thou not how many 
 things they witness against Thee? 
 And He answered him to never 
 a word, insomuch that the
 
 Cfje iSoofe of t\)t i$o^pth. 
 
 governour marvelled greatly. 
 Now at that feast the governour 
 was wont to release unto the 
 people a prisoner, whom they 
 would. And they had then a 
 notable prisoner, called Barabbas. 
 Therefore when they were ga- 
 thered together, Pilate said unto 
 them, Whom will ye that I re- 
 lease unto you ? Barabbas, or 
 Jesus which is called Christ ? 
 For he knew that for envy they 
 had delivered Him. When he 
 was set down on the judgment- 
 seat, his wife sent unto him, 
 saying, Have thou nothing to do 
 with that just Man ; for I have 
 suffered many things this day in 
 a dream because of Him. But 
 the chief priests and elders per- 
 suaded the multitude that they 
 should ask Barabbas, and destroy 
 Jesus. The governour answered 
 and said unto them. Whether of 
 the twain will ye that I release 
 unto you ? They said, Barabbas. 
 Pilate saith unto them. What 
 shall I do then with Jesus, which 
 is called Christ } They all say 
 unto him. Let Him be crucified. 
 And the governour said, Why, 
 what evil hath He done ? But 
 they cried out the more, saying, 
 Let Him be crucified. When 
 
 Pilate saw that he could prevail 
 nothing, but that rather a tumult 
 was made, he took water, and 
 washed his hands before the 
 multitude, saying, I am innocent 
 of the Blood of this just Person : 
 see ye to it. Then answered all 
 the people, and said, His Blood 
 be on us, and on our children. 
 Then released he Barabbas unto 
 them: and when he had scourged 
 Jesus he delivered Him to be 
 crucified. Then the soldiers 
 of the governour took Jesus into 
 the common hall, and gathered 
 unto Him the whole band of 
 soldiers. And they stripped 
 Him, and put on Him a scarlet 
 robe. And when they had plat- 
 ted a Crown of Thorns they 
 put it upon His Head, and a 
 Reed in His Right Hand : and 
 they bowed the knee before 
 Him, and mocked Him, saying. 
 Hail, King of the Jews. And 
 they spit upon Him, and took 
 the reed, and smote Him on the 
 Head. And after that they had 
 mocked Him they took the robe 
 off from Him, and put His Own 
 raiment on Him, and led Him 
 away to crucify Him. And as 
 they came out they found a man 
 of Cyrene, Simon by name ;
 
 Cbe iSoofe of t\)t (S^ospeb. 
 
 him they compelled to bear His 
 Cross. And when they were 
 come unto a place called Gol- 
 gotha, that is to say, a place of 
 a scull, they gave Him vinegar 
 to drink mingled with gall : and 
 when He had tasted thereof. He 
 would not drink. And they 
 crucified Him, and parted His 
 garments, casting lots : that it 
 might be fulfilled, which was 
 spoken by the prophet. They 
 parted My garments among 
 them, and upon My vesture did 
 they cast lots. And sitting down 
 they watched Him there ; and 
 set up over His Head His 
 accusation written, THIS IS 
 JESUS THE KING OF THE 
 JEWS. Then were there two 
 thieves crucified with Him ; one 
 on the right hand, and another on 
 the left. And they that passed 
 by reviled Him, wagging their 
 heads, and saying. Thou that 
 destroyest the temple, and build- 
 est it in three days, save Thyself: 
 if Thou be the Son of God, come 
 down from the Cross. Likewise 
 also the chief priests mocking 
 Him, with the scribes and elders, 
 said. He saved others. Himself 
 He cannot save : if He be the 
 King of Israel, letHim now come 
 
 down from the Cross, and we 
 will believe Him. He trusted 
 in God ; let Him deliver Him 
 now, if He will have Him : for 
 He said, I am the Son of God. 
 The thieves also, which were 
 crucified with Him, cast the 
 same in His teeth. Now from 
 the sixth hour there was darkness 
 over all the land unto the ninth 
 hour. And about the ninth 
 hour Jesus cried with a loud 
 voice, saying, E/i, Eli^ lama sa- 
 bachthani f that is to say. My 
 God, My God, why hast Thou 
 forsaken Me ? Some of them 
 that stood there, when they 
 heard that, said. This man call- 
 eth for Elias. And straightway 
 one of them ran, and took a 
 spunge, and filled it with vine- 
 gar, and put it on a reed, and 
 gave Him to drink. The rest 
 said. Let be, let us see whether 
 Elias will come to save Him. 
 Jesus, when He had cried again 
 with a loud voice, yielded up 
 the ghost. And behold, the 
 vail of the temple was rent in 
 twain from the top to the bot- 
 tom, and the earth did quake, 
 and the rocks rent, and the 
 graves were opened, and many 
 bodies of saints which slept arose.

 after His resurrection, and went 
 into the holy city, and appeared

 with him, watching Jesus, saw 
 the earthquake, and those things 
 that were done, they feared 
 greatly, saying. Truly this

 St. Mark xiv. i. 
 
 FTER two days 
 was the feast of 
 the Passover, and 
 of unleavened 
 bread : and the 
 chief priests and the scribes 
 sought how they might take Him 
 by craft, and put Him to death. 
 But they said. Not on the feast- 
 day, lest there be an uproar of 
 the people. And being in Be- 
 thany, in the house of Simon the 
 leper, as He sat at meat, there 
 came a woman having an ala- 
 baster box ot ointment of spike- 
 nard, very precious ; and she 
 brake the box, and poured it on 
 His Head. And there were 
 some that had indignation within 
 themselves, and said, Why was 
 this waste of the ointment made ? 
 
 for it might have been sold for 
 more than three hundred pence, 
 and have been given to the poor: 
 and they murmured against her. 
 And Jesus said, Let her alone ; 
 why trouble ye her ? she hath 
 wrought a good work on Me : for 
 ye have the poor with you always, 
 and whensoever ye will ye may do 
 them good ; but Me ye have not 
 always. She hath done what 
 she could; she is come aforehand 
 to anoint My Body to the bury- 
 ing. Verily I say unto you, 
 Wheresoever this Gospel shall be 
 preached throughout the whole 
 world, this also that she hatJi 
 done shall be spoken of for a 
 memorial of her. And Judas 
 Iscariot, one of the twelve, went 
 unto the chief priests to betray 
 Him unto them. And when 
 they heard it they were glad. 
 
 E 2

 and promised to give him money. 
 And he sought how he might 
 conveniently betray Him. And 
 the first day of unleavened bread, 
 when they killed the passover, 
 His disciples said unto Him, 
 Where wilt Thou that we go 
 and prepare, that Thou mayest 
 eat the passover? And He 
 sendeth forth two of His disciples, 
 and saith unto them, Go ye into 
 the city, and there shall meet 
 you a man bearing a pitcher of 
 water ; follow him : And 
 wheresoever he shall go in, say 
 ye to the good-man of the house. 
 The Master saith. Where is the 
 guest-chamber, where I shall 
 eat the passover with My dis- 
 ciples ? And he will shew you 
 a large upper-room furnished, 
 and prepared : there make ready 
 for us. And His disciples went 
 forth, and came into the city, 
 and found as He had said unto 
 them : and they made ready the 
 passover. And in the evening 
 He Cometh with the twelve. 
 And as they sat, and did eat, 
 Jesus said. Verily I say unto you, 
 One of you which eateth with 
 Me shall betray Me. And they 
 began to be sorrowful, and to 
 say unto Him one by one, Is it 
 
 I ? and another said. Is it I ? 
 And He answered and said unto 
 them. It is one of the twelve 
 that dippeth with Me in the dish. 
 The Son of Man indeed goeth, 
 as it is written of Him : but 
 woe to that man by whom the 
 Son of Man is betrayed : good 
 were it for that man if he had 
 never been born. And as they 
 did eat, Jesus took bread, and 
 blessed, and brake it, and gave 
 to them, and said. Take, eat : 
 This is My Body. And He took 
 the cup, and when He had given 
 thanks He gave it to them : and 
 they all drank of it. And He 
 said unto them. This is My 
 Blood of the new testament, 
 which is shed for many. Verily 
 I say unto you, I will drink no 
 more of the fruit of the vine, 
 until that day that I drink it new 
 in the Kingdom of God. And 
 when they had sung an hymn 
 they went out into the mount of 
 Olives. And Jesus saith unto 
 them. All ye shall be offended 
 because of Me this night : for it 
 is written, I will smite the Shep- 
 herd, and the sheep shall be 
 scattered. But, after that I am 
 risen, I will go before you into 
 Galilee. But Peter said unto
 
 %\)t iSoofe of tl)e (S^ospel0. 
 
 Him, Although all shall be 
 offended, yet will not I. And 
 Jesus saith unto him, Verily 
 I say unto thee. That this day, 
 even in this night, before the 
 cock crow twice, thou shalt 
 deny Me thrice. But he spake 
 the more vehemently. If I should 
 die with Thee, I will not deny 
 Thee in any wise. Likewise 
 also said they all. And they 
 came to a place which was 
 named Gethsemane : and He 
 saith to His disciples. Sit ye here, 
 while I shall pray. And He 
 taketh with Him Peter, and 
 James, and John, and began to 
 be sore amazed, and to be very 
 heavy, and saith unto them, My 
 Soul is exceeding sorrowful un- 
 to death ; tarry ye here, and 
 watch. And He went forward 
 a little, and fell on the ground, 
 and prayed, that, if it were 
 possible, the hour might pass 
 from Him. And He said, 
 Abba, Father, all things are 
 possible unto Thee ; take away 
 this cup from Me ; nevertheless, 
 not what I will, but what Thou 
 wilt. And He cometh and 
 findeth them sleeping, and saith 
 unto Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? 
 couldest not thou watch one 
 
 hour ? Watch ye and pray, lest 
 ye enter into temptation : the 
 spirit truly is ready, but the flesh 
 is weak. And again He went 
 away, and prayed, and spake the 
 same words. And when He 
 returned He found them asleep 
 again, (for their eyes were heavy,) 
 neither wist they what to answer 
 Him. And He cometh the 
 third time, and saith unto them, 
 Sleep on now, and take your 
 rest : it is enough, the hour is 
 come ; behold, the Son of Man 
 is betrayed into the hands of 
 sinners. Rise up, let us go ; 
 lo, he that betrayeth Me is at 
 hand. And immediately, while 
 He yet spake, cometh Judas, 
 one of the twelve, and with him 
 a great multitude with swords 
 and staves, from the chief priests, 
 and the scribes, and the elders. 
 And he that betrayed Him had 
 given them a token, saying. 
 Whomsoever I shall kiss, that 
 same is He ; take Him, and lead 
 Him away safely. And as soon 
 as he was come, he goeth 
 straightway to Him, and saith, 
 Master, master; and kissed Him. 
 And they laid their hands on 
 Him, and took Him. And one 
 of them that stood by drew a
 
 Cf)e iSoofe of tbe (S^ospels. 
 
 swordj and smote a servant of 
 the high priest, and cut off his 
 ear. And Jesus answered, and 
 said unto them. Are ye come 
 out as against a thief, with swords 
 and with staves, to take Me ? I 
 was daily with you in the temple 
 teaching, and ye took Me not : 
 but the Scriptures must be ful- 
 filled. And they all forsook 
 Him, and fled. And there fol- 
 lowed Him a certain young man, 
 having a linen cloth cast about 
 his naked body ; and the young 
 men laid hold an him : and he 
 left the linen cloth, and fled 
 from them naked. And they 
 led Jesus away to the high priest : 
 and with him were assembled 
 all the chief priests, and the 
 elders, and the scribes. And 
 Peter followed Him afar off, 
 even into the palace of the 
 high priest; and he sat with 
 the servants, and warmed him- 
 self at the fire. And the chief 
 priests and all the council sought 
 for witness against Jesus to put 
 Him to death; and found none. 
 For many bare false witness 
 against Him, but their witness 
 agreed not together. And there 
 arose certain, and bare false 
 witness against Him, saying, We 
 
 heard Him say, I will destroy 
 this temple that is made with 
 hands, and within three days I 
 will build another made without 
 hands. But neither so did their 
 witness agree together. And 
 the high priest stood up in the 
 midst, and asked Jesus, saying, 
 Answerest Thou nothing? what 
 is it which these witness against 
 Thee ? But He held His peace, 
 and answered nothing. Again 
 the high priest asked Him, and 
 said unto Him, Art Thou the 
 Christ, the Son of the Blessed ? 
 And Jesus said, I am ; and ye 
 shall see the Son of Man sitting 
 on the right hand of power, and 
 coming in the clouds of heaven. 
 Then the high priest rent his 
 clothes, and saith. What need 
 we any further witnesses ? ye 
 have heard the blasphemy: what 
 think ye ? And they all con- 
 demned Him to be guilty of 
 death. And some began to spit 
 on Him, and to cover His Face, 
 and to buffet Him, and to say 
 unto Him, Prophesy : and the 
 servants did strike Him with the 
 palms of their hands. And as 
 Peter was beneath in the palace 
 there cometh one of the maids 
 of the high priest ; and when
 
 Cfje iSoofe of t\)t Gospels, 
 
 she saw Peter warming himself 
 she looked upon him, and said, 
 And thou also wast with Jesus 
 of Nazareth. But he denied, 
 saying, I know not, neither 
 understand I what thou sayest. 
 And he went out into the porch ; 
 and the cock crew. And a maid 
 saw him again, and began to say 
 to them that stood by, This is 
 one of them. And he denied 
 it again. And a little after, they 
 that stood by said again to Peter, 
 
 Surely thou art one of them ; 
 for thou art a Galilean, and thy 
 speech agreeth thereto. But he 
 began to curse and to swear, 
 saying, I know not This Man of 
 Whom ye speak. And the 
 second time the cock crew. 
 And Peter called to mind the 
 word that Jesus said unto him, 
 Before the cock crow twice, thou 
 shalt deny Me thrice. And 
 when he thought thereon, he 
 wept.

 ND straightway in 
 the morning the 
 chief priests held 
 a consultation 
 with the elders, 
 and scribes, and the whole 
 council, and bound Jesus, and 
 carried Him away, and delivered 
 Him to Pilate. And Pilate 
 asked Him, Art Thou the King 
 of the Jews? And He answering 
 said unto him, Thou sayest it. 
 And the chief priests accused 
 
 Him of many things : but He 
 answered nothing. And Pilate 
 asked Him again, saying, An- 
 swerest Thou nothing ? behold 
 how many things they witness 
 against Thee. But Jesus yet 
 answered nothing : so that Pilate 
 marvelled. Now at that feast 
 he released unto them one 
 prisoner, whomsoever they de- 
 sired. And there was one named 
 Barabbas, which lay bound with 
 them that had made insurrec- 
 tion with him, who had commit- 
 ted murder in the insurrection.
 
 Cf)e iSoofe of ti)t (S^ospels. 
 
 And the multitude, crying aloud, 
 began to desire him to do as he 
 had ever done unto them. But 
 Pilate answered them, saying, 
 Will ye that I release unto you 
 the King of the Jews ? For he 
 knew that the chief priests 
 had delivered Him for envy. 
 But the chief priests moved the 
 people, that he should rather 
 release Barabbas unto them. 
 And Pilate answered, and said 
 again unto them. What will ye 
 then that I shall do unto Him 
 Whom ye call the King of the 
 Jews? And they cried out again, 
 Crucify Him. Then Pilate said 
 unto them. Why, what evil hath 
 He done? And they cried out 
 the more exceedingly. Crucify 
 Him. And so Pilate, willing to 
 content the people, released 
 Barabbas unto them, and de- 
 livered Jesus, when he had 
 scourged Him, to be crucified. 
 And the soldiers led Him away 
 into the hall, called Praetorium; 
 and they call together the whole 
 band. And they clothed Him 
 with purple, and platted a crown 
 of thorns, and put it about His 
 head : and began to salute Him, 
 Hail, King of the Jews. And 
 they smote Him on the head 
 
 with a reed, and did spit upon 
 Him, and bowing their knees 
 worshipped Him. And when 
 they had mocked Him they took 
 off the purple from Him, and 
 put His own clothes on Him, 
 and led Him out to crucify Him. 
 And they compel one Simon a 
 Cyrenian,who passed by, coming 
 out of the country, the father of 
 Alexander and Rufus, to bear 
 His Cross. And they bring Him 
 unto the place Golgotha, which 
 is, being interpreted, The place 
 of a scull. And they gave Him 
 to drink wine mingled with 
 myrrh ; but He received it not. 
 And when they had crucified 
 Him they parted His garments, 
 casting lots upon them, what 
 every man should take. And 
 it was the third hour, and they 
 crucified Him. And the super- 
 scription of His accusation was 
 written over, THE KING OF 
 THE JEWS. And with Him 
 they crucify two thieves, the one 
 on His right hand, and the other 
 on His left. And the Scripture 
 was fulfilled, which saith. And 
 He was numbered with the 
 transgressors. And they that 
 passed by railed on Him, wagging 
 their heads, and saying. Ah,
 
 C!)c iSoofe of t\)t (S^ospcls. 
 
 Thou that destroyest the temple, 
 and buildest it in three days, save 
 Thyself, and come down from 
 the cross. Likewise also the 
 chief priests mocking said among 
 themselves, with the scribes. He 
 saved others ; Himself He can- 
 not save. Let Christ the King 
 of Israel descend now from the 
 cross, that we may see and be- 
 lieve. And they that were 
 crucified with Him reviled Him. 
 And when the sixth hour was 
 come, there was darkness over 
 the whole land until the ninth 
 hour. And at the ninth hour 
 Jesus cried with a loud voice, 
 saying, E/oiy Eloi^ lama sabach- 
 thanif which is, being inter- 
 
 preted, My God, My God, why 
 hast Thou forsaken Me ? And 
 some of them that stood by, when 
 they heard it, said. Behold, He 
 calleth Elias. And one ran and 
 filled a spunge full of vinegar, 
 and put it on a reed, and gave 
 Him to drink, saying. Let alone; 
 let us see whether Elias will 
 come to take Him down. And 
 Jesus cried with a loud voice, 
 and gave up the ghost. And the 
 vail of the temple was rent in 
 twain from the top to the bot- 
 tom. And when the centurion, 
 which stood over against Him,

 St. Luke xxii. i. 
 
 OW the feast of 
 unleavened bread 
 drew nigh, which 
 is called the Pass- 
 over. And the 
 chief priests and scribes sought 
 how they might kill Him ; for 
 they feared the people. Then 
 
 entered Satan into Judas sur- 
 named Iscariot, being of the 
 number of the twelve. And 
 he went his way, and com- 
 muned with the chief priests 
 and captains, how he might 
 betray Him unto them. And 
 they were glad, and covenanted 
 to give him money. And 
 he promised, and sought oppor-
 
 Cfje iSoofe of t\)t (S^o^pete. 
 
 tunity to betray Him unto them 
 in the absence of the multitude. 
 Then came the day of unleavened 
 bread, when the passover must 
 be killed. And He sent Peter 
 and John, saying. Go and pre- 
 pare us the passover, that we 
 may eat. And they said unto 
 Him, Where wilt Thou that we 
 prepare ? And He said unto 
 them, Behold, when ye are 
 entered into the city, there shall 
 a man meet you, bearing a 
 pitcher of water ; follow him 
 into the house where he entereth 
 in. And ye shall say unto the 
 goodman of the house. The 
 Master saith unto thee. Where 
 is the guest-chamber, where I 
 shall eat the passover with My 
 disciples ? And he shall shew 
 you a large upper-room fur- 
 nished ; there make ready. And 
 they went, and found as He had 
 said unto them : and they made 
 ready the passover. And when 
 the hour was come He sat down, 
 and the twelve Apostles with 
 Him. And He said unto them, 
 With desire I have desired to eat 
 this passover with you before I 
 suffer : for I say unto you, I will 
 not any more eat thereof, until 
 it be fulfilled in the Kingdom of 
 
 God. And He took the cup, 
 and gave thanks, and said, Take 
 this, and divide it among your- 
 selves. For I say unto you, I 
 will not drink of the fruit of the 
 vine, until the Kingdom of 
 God shall come. And He took 
 bread, and gave thanks, and 
 brake it, and gave unto them, 
 saying. This is My Body, which 
 is given for you : this do in re- 
 membrance of Me. Likewise al- 
 so the cup after supper, saying, 
 This cup is the new testament 
 in My Blood, which is shed for 
 you. But behold, the hand of 
 him that betrayeth Me is with 
 Me on the table. And truly 
 the Son of Man goeth as it 
 was determined ; but woe unto 
 that man by whom He is be- 
 trayed. And they began to en- 
 quire among themselves, which 
 of them it was that should do 
 this thing. And there was also 
 a strife among them, which of 
 them should be accounted the 
 greatest. And He said unto 
 them, The kings of the Gentiles 
 exercise lordship over them, and 
 they that exercise authority upon 
 them are called benefactors. But 
 ye shall not be so : but he that 
 is greatest among you, let him
 
 %\)t iSoofe of t\)t (Bos^tU. 
 
 be as the younger ; and he that 
 is chief, as he that doth serve. 
 For whether is greater, he that 
 sittethat meat, or he that serveth? 
 is not he that sitteth at meat ? 
 but I am among you as he that 
 serveth. Ye are they which 
 have continued with Me in My 
 temptations. And I appoint 
 unto you a kingdom, as My 
 Father hath appointed unto Me; 
 that ye may eat and drink at 
 My table in My kingdom, and 
 sit on thrones, judging the twelve 
 tribes of Israel. And the Lord 
 said, Simon, Simon, behold, 
 Satan hath desired to have you, 
 that he may sift you as wheat : 
 but I have prayed for thee, that 
 thy faith fail not ; and when 
 thou art converted, strengthen 
 thy brethren. And he said unto 
 Him, Lord, I am ready to go 
 with Thee both into prison and to 
 death. And He said, I tell thee, 
 Peter, the cock shall not crow 
 this day, before that thou shalt 
 thrice deny that thou knowest 
 Me. And He said unto them. 
 When I sent you without purse, 
 and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye 
 any thing ? And they said, No- 
 thing. Then said He unto them. 
 But now, he that hath a purse. 
 
 let him take it, and likewise his 
 scrip : and he that hath no sword, 
 let him sell his garment, and buy 
 one. For I say unto you. That 
 this that is written must yet be 
 accomplished in Me, And He 
 was reckoned among the trans- 
 gressors : for the things con- 
 cerning Me have an end. And 
 they said. Lord, behold, here 
 are two swords. And He said 
 unto them. It is enough. And 
 He came out, and went, as He 
 was wont, to the mount of Olives, 
 and His disciples also followed 
 Him. And when He was at 
 the place, He said unto them, 
 Pray, that ye enter not into 
 temptation. And He was with- 
 drawn from them about a stone's 
 cast, and kneeled down and 
 prayed, saying. Father, if Thou 
 be willing, remove this cup from 
 Me : nevertheless, not My will, 
 but Thine be done. And there 
 appeared an angel unto Him 
 from heaven, strengthening Him. 
 And being in an agony He 
 prayed more earnesdy ; and His 
 sweat was as it were great drops 
 of blood falling down to the 
 ground. And when He rose up 
 from prayer, and was come to His 
 disciples. He found them sleeping 
 
 F 2
 
 CI)e iSoofe of t\)t (S^o0pel0. 
 
 for sorrow, and said unto them, 
 Why sleep ye ? rise and pray, 
 lest ye enter into temptation. 
 And while He yet spake, behold, 
 a multitude, and he that was 
 called Judas, one of the twelve, 
 went before them, and drew 
 near unto Jesus to kiss Him. 
 But Jesus said unto him, Judas, 
 betrayest thou the Son of Man 
 with a kiss ? When they who 
 were about Him saw what would 
 follow, they said unto Him, Lord, 
 shall we smite with the sword ? 
 And one of them smote the ser- 
 vant of the high priest, and cut 
 off his right ear. And Jesus 
 answered and said. Suffer ye thus 
 far. And He touched his ear, 
 and healed him. Then Jesus 
 said unto the chief priests, and 
 captains of the temple, and the 
 elders who were come to Him, 
 Be ye come out as against a thief, 
 with swords and staves ? When 
 I was daily with you in the 
 temple, ye stretched forth no 
 hands against Me : but this is 
 your hour, and the power of 
 darkness. Then took they Him, 
 and led Him, and brought Him 
 into the high priest's house : and 
 Peter followed afar off. And 
 when they had kindled a fire in 
 
 the midst of the hall, and were 
 set down together, Peter sat 
 down among them. But a cer- 
 tain maid beheld him, as he sat 
 by the fire, and earnestly looked 
 upon him, and said. This man 
 was also with Him. And he 
 denied Him, saying, Woman, I 
 know Him not. And after a 
 little while another saw him, and 
 said, Thou art also of them. 
 And Peter said, Man, I am not. 
 And about the space of one hour 
 after, another confidently af- 
 firmed, saying. Of a truth this 
 fellow also was with Him; for he 
 is a Galilean. And Peter said, 
 Man, I know not what thou 
 sayest. And immediately, while 
 he yet spake, the cock crew. 
 And the Lord turned, and looked 
 upon Peter ; and Peter remem- 
 bered the word of the Lord, 
 how He had said unto him, 
 Belore the cock crow, thou shalt 
 deny Me thrice. And Peter 
 went out, and wept bitterly. 
 And the men that held Jesus 
 mocked Him, and smote Him. 
 And when they had blindfolded 
 Him, they struck Himon the face, 
 and asked Him, saying. Pro- 
 phesy, who is it that smote Thee? 
 And many other things blasphe-
 
 Cj)e iSoofe of tJ)e (S^ospels. 
 
 mously spake they against Him. 
 And as soon as it was day, the 
 elders of the people, and the chief 
 priests, and the scribes, came 
 together, and led Him into their 
 council, saying. Art Thou the 
 Christ ? tell us. And He said 
 unto them. If I tell you, ye will 
 not believe : and if I also ask 
 you, ye will not answer Me, 
 
 nor let Me go. Hereafter shall 
 the Son of Man sit on the right 
 hand ot the power of God. 
 Then said they all. Art Thou 
 then the Son of God ? And 
 He said unto them. Ye say that 
 I am. And they said, What 
 need we any further witness ? 
 for we ourselves have heard of 
 His own mouth.

 and led Him unto 
 Pilate. And they 
 began to accuse

 Fellow perverting the nation, 
 and forbidding to give tribute to 
 Caesar, saying. That He Himself 
 is Christ a King. And Pilate 
 asked Him, saying. Art Thou 
 the King of the Jews ? And He 
 answered him, and said. Thou 
 sayest it. Then said Pilate to 
 
 the chief priests, and to the peo- 
 ple, I find no fault in This Man. 
 And they were the more fierce, 
 saying, He stirreth up the people, 
 teaching throughout all Jewry, 
 beginning from Galilee to this 
 place. When Pilate heard of 
 Galilee, he asked whether the 
 Man were a Galilean. And as 
 soon as he knew that He be- 
 longed unto Herod's jurisdiction, 
 he sent Him to Herod, who 
 himself was also at Jerusalem at 
 that time. And when Herod 
 saw Jesus he was exceeding 
 glad ; for he was desirous to see
 
 Cfte iScofe of tl)t 0ospel0. 
 
 Him of a long season, because 
 he had heard many things of 
 Him j and he hoped to have 
 seen some miracle done by Him. 
 Then he questioned with Him 
 in many words; but He answered 
 him nothing. And the chief 
 priests and scribes stood and 
 vehemently accused Him. And 
 Herod with his men of war set 
 Him at nought, and mocked 
 Him, and arrayed Him in a gor- 
 geous robe, and sent Him again 
 to Pilate. And the same day 
 Pilate and Herod were made 
 friends together ; for before 
 they were at enmity between 
 themselves. And Pilate, when 
 he had called together the chief 
 priests, and the rulers, and the 
 people, said unto them. Ye have 
 brought This Man unto me, as 
 one that perverteth the people : 
 and behold, I, having examined 
 Him before you, have found no 
 fault in This Man touching those 
 things whereof ye accuse Him : 
 No, nor yet Herod : for I sent 
 you to him ; and lo, nothing 
 worthy of death is done unto 
 Him. I will therefore chastise 
 Him, and release Him. For of 
 necessity he must release one 
 unto them at the feast. And 
 
 they cried out all at once, saying. 
 Away with This Man, and release 
 unto us Barabbas : (who for a 
 certain sedition made in the 
 city, and for murder, was cast 
 into prison.) Pilate therefore, 
 willing to release Jesus, spake 
 again to them. But they cried, 
 saying. Crucify Him, crucify 
 Him. And he said unto them 
 the third time, Why, what evil 
 hath He done ? I have found 
 no cause of death in Him : I 
 will therefore chastise Him, and 
 let Him go. And they were 
 instant with loud voices, requir- 
 ing that He might be crucified : 
 and the voices of them and of the 
 chief priests prevailed. And 
 Pilate gave sentence that it 
 should be as they required. 
 And he released unto them him 
 that for sedition and murder was 
 cast into prison, whom they had 
 desired; but he delivered Jesus 
 to their will. And as they led 
 Him away, they laid hold upon 
 one Simon a Cyrenian, coming 
 out of the country, and on him 
 they laid the Cross, that he might 
 bear it after Jesus. And there 
 followed Him a great company 
 of people, and of women, which 
 also bewailed and lamented Him.
 
 Cj)e iSoofe of t\)t Gospels, 
 
 But Jesus, turning unto them, 
 said. Daughters of Jerusalem, 
 weep not for Me, but weep for 
 yourselves, and for your children. 
 For behold, the days are coming, 
 in the which they shall say, 
 Blessed are the barren, and the 
 wombs that never bare, and the 
 paps which never gave suck. 
 Then shall they begin to say to 
 the mountains. Fall on us ; and 
 to the hills. Cover us. For if 
 they do these things in a green 
 tree, what shall be done in the 
 dry ? And there were also two 
 other, malefactors, led with Him 
 to be put to death. And when 
 they were come to the place 
 which is called Calvary, there 
 they crucified Him ; and the 
 malefactors, one on the right 
 hand, and the other on the left. 
 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive 
 them, for they know not what 
 they do. And they parted His 
 raiment, and cast lots. And the 
 people stood beholding ; and the 
 rulers also with them derided 
 Him, saying, He saved others ; 
 let Him save Himself, if He be 
 Christ, the chosen of God. And 
 the soldiers also mocked Him, 
 coming to Him, and offering 
 Him vinegar, and saying. If Thou 
 
 be the King of the Jews, save 
 Thyself. And a superscription 
 also was written over Him in 
 letters of Greek, and Latin, and 
 Hebrew, THIS IS THE 
 KING OF THE JEWS. And 
 one of the malefactors, which 
 were hanged, railed on Him, 
 saying, If Thou be Christ, save 
 Thyself, and us. But the other 
 answering rebuked him, saying, 
 Dost not thou fear God, seeing 
 thou art in the same condem- 
 nation } And we indeed justly ; 
 for we receive the due reward 
 of our deeds, but This Man hath 
 done nothing amiss. And he 
 said unto Jesus, Lord, remember 
 me when Thou comest into Thy 
 kingdom. And Jesus said unto 
 him. Verily I say unto thee, 
 To-day shalt thou be with Me 
 in Paradise. And it was about 
 the sixth hour : and there was a 
 darkness over all the earth until 
 the ninth hour. And the sun 
 was darkened, and the vail of the 
 temple was rent in the midst. 
 And when Jesus had cried with 
 a loud voice. He said, Father, 
 into Thy hands I commend My 
 Spirit : and having said thus, 
 He gave up the ghost. Now 
 when the centurion saw what
 
 C{)e iSoofe of t\)t Gospels. 
 
 was done, he glorified God, say- 
 ing. Certainly This was a righ- 
 teous Man. And all the people 
 that came together to that sight, 
 beholding the things that were 
 
 done, smote their breasts, and 
 returned. And all His acquaint- 
 ance, and the women that fol- 
 lowed Him from Galilee, stood 
 afar off, beholding these things.

 ILATE therefore 
 took Jesus, and 
 scourged Him. 
 And the soldiers 
 platted a Crown 
 ot Thorns, and put it on His 
 Head, and they put on Him a 
 Purple Robe, and said, Hail, King 
 of the Jews: and they smote Him 
 with their hands. Pilate there- 
 fore went forth again, and saith 
 unto them. Behold, I bring Him 
 forth to you, that ye may know 
 that I find no fault in Him. 
 Then came Jesus forth, wearing 
 the crown of thorns, and the 
 purple robe. And Pilate saith 
 unto them. Behold the Man ! 
 When the chief priests therefore 
 and officers saw Him, they cried 
 out, saying, Crucify Him, crucify 
 Him. Pilate saith unto them. 
 
 Take ye Him, and crucify Him: 
 for I find no fault in Him. The 
 Jews answered him. We have a 
 law, and by our law He ought 
 to die, because He made Himself 
 the Son of God. When Pilate 
 therefore heard that saying, he 
 was the more afraid ; and went 
 again into the judgment-hall, 
 and saith unto Jesus, Whence 
 art Thou ? But Jesus gave him 
 no answer. Then saith Pilate 
 unto Him, Speakest Thou not 
 unto me ? knowest Thou not 
 that I have power to crucify 
 Thee, and have power to release 
 Thee ? Jesus answered. Thou 
 couldest have no power at all 
 against Me, except it were given 
 thee from above : therefore he 
 that delivered Me unto thee hath 
 the greater sin. And from' 
 thenceforth Pilate sought to re-
 
 %\)t iSooli of t\)t (8^o0pel0. 
 
 lease Him : but the Jews cried 
 out, saying, If thou let this Man 
 go, thou art not Caesar's friend : 
 whosoever maketh himself a 
 king speaketh against Caesar, 
 When Pilate therefore heard 
 that saying, he brought Jesus 
 forth, and sat down in the judg- 
 ment-seat, in a place that is 
 called the Pavement, but in the 
 Hebrew, Gabbatha. And it was 
 the preparation of the passover, 
 and about the sixth hour : and 
 he saith unto the Jews, Behold 
 your King ! But they cried out. 
 Away with Him, away with Him, 
 crucify Him. Pilate saith unto 
 them. Shall I crucify your King? 
 The chief priests answered. We 
 have no king but Cassar. Then 
 delivered he Him therefore unto 
 them to be crucified : and they 
 took Jesus, and led Him away. 
 And He, bearing His Cross, 
 went forth into a place called 
 the Place of a Scull, which is 
 called in the Hebrew, Golgotha: 
 where they crucified Him, and 
 two other with Him, on either 
 side one, and Jesus in the midst. 
 And Pilate wrote a title, and 
 put it on the Cross j and the 
 writing was, JESUS OF NA- 
 ZARETH THE KING OF 
 
 THE JEWS. This tide then 
 read many of the Jews : for the 
 place where Jesus was crucified 
 was nigh to the city : and it was 
 written in Hebrew, and Greek, 
 and Latin. Then said the chief 
 priests of the Jews to Pilate, 
 Write not. The King of the 
 Jews ; but that He said, I am 
 the King of the Jews. Pilate 
 answered, What I have written, 
 I have written. Then the sol- 
 diers, when they had crucified 
 Jesus, took His garments, and 
 made four parts, to every soldier 
 apart; and also His coat: now 
 the coat was without seam, 
 woven from the top throughout. 
 They said therefore among them- 
 selves. Let us not rend it, but 
 cast lots for it, whose it shall 
 be : that the Scripture might 
 be fulfilled, which saith. They 
 parted My raiment among them, 
 and for My vesture they did cast 
 lots. These things therefore 
 the soldiers did. Now there 
 stood by the Cross of Jesus, His 
 Mother, and His Mother's sister, 
 Mary the wife of Cleophas, and 
 Mary Magdalene. When Jesus 
 therefore saw His Mother, and 
 the disciple standing by, whom 
 He loved, He saith unto His
 
 CJ)e iSoofe of tl)e (S^OiSpels. 
 
 Mother, Woman, behold thy 
 son. Then saith He to the 
 disciple. Behold thy Mother. 
 And from that hour that dis- 
 ciple took her unto his own 
 home. After this, Jesus know- 
 ing that all things were now 
 accomplished, that the Scripture 
 might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst. 
 Now there was set a vessel full 
 of vinegar : and they filled a 
 spunge with vijiegar, and put it 
 upon hyssop, and put it to His 
 Mouth. When Jesus therefore 
 had received the vinegar, He said, 
 It is finished : and He bowed 
 His Head, and gave up the ghost. 
 The Jews therefore, because it 
 was the preparation, that the 
 bodies should not remain upon 
 the cross on the sabbath-day, (for 
 that sabbath-day was an high 
 
 day,) besought Pilate that their 
 legs might be broken, and that 
 they might be taken away. Then 
 came the soldiers, and brake the 
 legs of the first, and of the other 
 which was crucified with Him. 
 But when they came to Jesus, 
 and saw that He was dead al- 
 ready, they brake not His legs. 
 But one of the soldiers with a 
 spear pierced His Side, and forth- 
 with came there out Blood and 
 Water. And he that saw it bare 
 record, and his record is true : 
 and he knoweth that he saith 
 true, that ye might believe. For 
 these things were done that the 
 Scripture should be fulfilled, A 
 bone of Him shall not be broken. 
 And again, another Scripture 
 saith. They shall look on Him 
 Whom they pierced.

 HEN the even 
 was come, there 
 came a rich man 
 of Arimathaea, 
 named Joseph, 
 who also himself was Jesus' dis- 
 ciple. He went to Pilate, and 
 begged the Body of Jesus. Then 
 Pilate commanded the Body to 
 be delivered. And when Joseph 
 had taken the Body, he wrapped 
 It in a clean linen cloth, and 
 laid It in his own new tomb, 
 which he had hewn out in the 
 rock ; and he rolled a great 
 stone to the door of the sepul- 
 chre, and departed. And there 
 was Mary Magdalene, and the 
 other Mary, sitting over against 
 
 the sepulchre. Now the next 
 day that followed the day of the 
 preparation, the chief priests 
 and Pharisees came together 
 unto Pilate, saying, Sir, we re- 
 member that that deceiver said, 
 while He was yet alive. After 
 three days 1 will rise again. 
 Command therefore that the 
 sepulchre be made sure until 
 the third day, lest His disciples 
 come by night and steal Him 
 away, and say unto the people. 
 He is risen from the dead : so 
 the last error shall be worse than 
 the first. Pilate said unto them. 
 Ye have a watch ; go your way, 
 make it as sure as ye can. So 
 they went and made the sepul- 
 chre sure, sealing the stone, and 
 setting a watch.

 EHOLD, two of 
 
 His disciples went 
 that same day to 
 a village called 
 Emmaus, which 
 was from Jerusalem about three- 
 score furlongs. And they talked 
 together of all these things which 
 had happened. And it came to 
 pass, that while they communed 
 together, and reasoned, Jesus 
 Himself drew near, and went 
 with them. But their eyes were 
 holden, that they should not 
 know Him. And He said unto 
 them, What manner of commu- 
 nications are these that ye have 
 one to another, as ye walk, and 
 are sad ? And the one of them, 
 whose name was Cleopas, an- 
 swering, said untoHim, ArtThou 
 only a stranger in Jerusalem, 
 and hast not known the things 
 which are come to pass there in 
 these days ? And He said unto 
 them, What things ? And they 
 said unto Him, Concerning 
 
 Jesus of Nazareth, Who was a 
 prophet mighty in deed and word, 
 before God and all the people : 
 and how the chief priests and 
 our rulers delivered Him to be 
 condemned to death, and have 
 crucified Him. But we trusted 
 that it had been He Which 
 should have redeemed Israel : 
 and besides all this, to-day is 
 the third day since these things 
 were done. Yea, and certain 
 women also of our company 
 made us astonished, which were 
 early at the sepulchre; and when 
 they found not His Body, they 
 came, saying, that they had also 
 seen a Vision of Angels, which 
 said that He was alive. And 
 certain of them which were with 
 us went to the sepulchre, and 
 found it even so as the women 
 had said ; but Him they saw 
 not. Then He said unto them, 
 O fools, and slow of heart to 
 believe all that the prophets have 
 spoken : ought not Christ to have 
 suffered these things, and to en- 
 ter into His glory ? And begin-
 
 C{)e iSocfe of tJ)e Gospels. 
 
 ning at Moses, and all the pro- 
 phets, He expounded unto them 
 in all the Scriptures the things 
 concerning Himself. And they 
 drew nigh unto the village 
 whither they went ; and He 
 made as though He would 
 have gone further : but they 
 constrained Him, saying. Abide 
 with us, for it is towards even- 
 ing, and the day is far spent. 
 And He went in to tarry with 
 them. And it came to pass, 
 as He sat at meat with them. He 
 took bread, and blessed it, and 
 brake, and gave to them. And 
 their eyes were opened, and 
 
 they knew Him, and He van- 
 ished out of their sight. And 
 they said one to another. Did 
 not our heart burn within us, 
 while He talked with us by the 
 way, and while He opened to 
 us the Scriptures ? And they 
 rose up the same hour, and re- 
 turned to Jerusalem, and found 
 the eleven gathered together, 
 and them that were with them, 
 saying. The Lord is risen indeed, 
 and hath appeared to Simon. 
 And they told what things were 
 done in the way, and how He 
 was known of them in breaking 
 of bread.

 And other sheep I have, which

 condemnation, that light is come

 darkness rather than light, be-

 For every one that doeth evil 
 hateth the light, neither cometh

 truth cometh to the light, that 
 his deeds may be made manifest, 
 that they are wrought in God.

 come from God : for no man 
 can do these miracles that Thou 
 doest, except God be with him. 
 Jesus answered and said unto

 again, he cannot see the King- 
 dom of God. Nicodemus saith 
 unto Him, How can a man be 
 born when he is old ? can 
 he enter the second time into 
 his mother's womb, and be born? 
 Jesus answered. Verily, verily I 
 say unto thee, Except a man be 
 born of water, and of the Spirit, 
 he cannot enter into the Kingdom 
 of God. That which is born 
 of the flesh is flesh ; and that 
 which is born of the Spirit is

 The wind bloweth where it list- 
 eth, and thou hearest the sound 
 thereof, but canst not tell whence 
 it Cometh, and whither it goeth; 
 so is every one that is born of

 and said unto Him, How can 
 these things be ? Jesus answered 
 and said unto him. Art thou a 
 master of Israel, and knowest 
 not these things ? Verily, verily 
 I say unto thee. We speak that 
 We do know, and testify that We 
 have seen ; and ye receive not 
 Our witness. If I have told you 
 earthly things, and ye believe 
 not ; how shall ye believe, if I 
 tell you of heavenly things ? 
 And no man hath ascended up 
 to heaven, but He that came 
 down from heaven, even the Son 
 of man. Who is in heaven. And 
 as Moses lifted up the serpent 
 in the wilderness, even so must 
 the Son of Man be lifted up : 
 that whosoever believeth in Him

 From whence can a man satisfy 
 these men with bread here in

 them. How many loaves have 
 ye ? And they said. Seven. And 
 He commanded the people to 
 sit down on the ground. And 
 He took the seven loaves, and 
 gave thanks, and brake, and 
 gave to His disciples to set before 
 them ; and they did set them 
 before the people. And they 
 had a few small fishes ; and He 
 blessed, and commanded to set 
 them also before them. So 
 they did eat, and were filled : 
 and they took up of the broken

 And they that had eaten were 
 about four thousand. And He

 the first, How much owest thou

 hundred measures of oil. And 
 he said unto him. Take thy bill, 
 and sit down quickly, and write 
 fifty. Then said he to another, 
 And how much owest thou ? 
 And he said, An hundred mea- 
 
 sures of wheat. And he said 
 unto him, Take thy bill, and 
 write fourscore. And the lord 
 commended the unjust steward, 
 because he had done wisely : 
 for the children of this world

 O man can serve

 ne will hold to the one, and 
 despise the other. Ye cannot 
 serve God and Mammon. There-

 shall eat, or what ye shall drink; 
 nor yet for your body, what ye 
 shall put on : Is not the life more 
 than meat, and the body than 
 raiment ? Behold the fowls of 
 the air; for they sow not, neither 
 
 do they reap, nor gather mto

 feedeth them. Are ye not much 
 better than they? Which of you 
 by taking thought can add one 
 cubit unto his stature ? And 
 why take ye thought for raiment.? 
 Consider the lilies of the field 
 
 how they grow : they toil not, 
 neither do they spin : and yet 
 I say unto you. That even 
 Solomon in all his glory was 
 not arrayed like one of these. 
 Wherefore, if God so clothe the

 is, and to-morrow is cast into 
 the oven ; shall He not much 
 more clothe you, O ye of little 
 faith ? Therefore take no 
 thought, saying. What shall we 
 eat ? or what shall we drink ? or 
 wherewithal shall we be clothed ? 
 (for after all these things do 
 the Gentiles seek:) for your Hea-

 have need of all these things. 
 But seek ye first the kingdom of 
 God, and His righteousness, and 
 all these things shall be added

 morrow shall take thought for 
 the things of itself: sufficient

 Except I shall see in His Hands

 His Side, I will not believe. And 
 after eight days again His dis-

 with them : then came Jesus, 
 the doors being shut, and stood 
 in the midst, and said. Peace be

 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas,

 hast believed ; blessed are they 
 that have not seen, and yet have

 of His disciples, which are not

 [OR CANDLEMASS DAY.] 
 
 St. Luke ii. 22. 
 
 ND when the days 
 of her Purifica- 
 tion, according to 
 the Law of Mo- 
 
 ses, were accom- 
 
 plished, they brought Him to 
 Jerusalem, to present Him to 
 the Lord ; (as it is written in the 
 Law of the Lord, Every male 
 that openeth the womb shall be 
 called holy to the Lord ;) and 
 to offer a sacrifice, according to 
 that which is said in the Law of 
 the Lord, A pair of turtle-doves, 
 or two young pigeons. And 
 behold, there was a man in 
 Jerusalem, whose name was 
 Simeon; and the same man was 
 just and devout, waiting for the 
 consolation of Israel : and the 
 Holy Ghost was upon him. 
 And it was revealed unto him 
 
 by the Holy Ghost, that he 
 should not see death, before he 
 had seen the Lord's Christ. And 
 he came by the Spirit into the 
 temple ; and when the parents 
 brought in the Child Jesus, to 
 do for Him after the custom of 
 the Law, then took he Him up 
 in his arms, and blessed God, 
 and said, Lord, now lettest Thou 
 Thy servant depart in peace, 
 according to Thy word : for 
 mine eyes have seen Thy sal- 
 vation, which Thou hast pre- 
 pared before the face of all 
 people ; a Light to lighten the 
 Gentiles, and the glory of Thy 
 people Israel. And Joseph and 
 His Mother marvelled at those 
 things which were spoken of 
 Him. And Simeon blessed 
 them, and said unto Mary His 
 Mother, Behold, this Child is

 set for the fall and rising again 
 of many in Israel ; and for a 
 sign which shall be spoken 
 against ; (yea, a sword shall 
 pierce through thy own soul 
 also ;) that the thoughts of many 
 hearts may be revealed. And 
 there was one Anna a prophetess, 
 the daughter of Phanuel, of the 
 tribe of Aser ; she was of a great 
 age, and had lived with an hus- 
 band seven years from her vir- 
 ginity : and she was a widow of 
 about fourscore and four years ; 
 which departed not from the 
 
 temple, but served God with 
 fastings and prayers night and 
 day. And she coming in that 
 instant gave thanks likewise unto 
 the Lord, and spake of Him to 
 all them that looked for re- 
 demption in Jerusalem. And 
 when they had performed all 
 things according to the Law of 
 the Lordj they returned into 
 Galilee to their own city Na- 
 zareth. And the Child grew, 
 and waxed strong in spirit, filled 
 with wisdom ; and the grace of 
 God was upon Him.

 because Thou hast hid these 
 things from the wise and prudent, 
 and hast revealed them unto 
 babes. Even so. Father, for so 
 it seemed good in Thy sight. 
 All things are delivered unto 
 Me of My Father : and no man 
 
 knoweth the Son, but the Father; 
 neither knoweth any man the 
 Father, save the Son, and he to 
 whomsoever the Son will reveal 
 Him. Come unto Me, all ye 
 that labour and are heavy laden, 
 and I will give you rest. Take 
 My yoke upon you, and learn 
 of Me ; for I am meek and 
 lowly in heart : and ye shall find 
 rest unto your souls. For My 
 yoke is easy, and My burden is 
 light.

 ND in the sixth 
 month the Angel 
 Gabriel was sent 
 from God unto a 
 city of Galilee 
 named Nazareth, to a Virgin 
 espoused to a man whose name 
 was Joseph, of the house of 
 David ; and the Virgin's name 
 was Mary. And the Angel 
 came in unto her, and said. 
 Hail, thou that art highly 
 favoured, the Lord is with thee; 
 blessed art thou among women. 
 And when she saw him she was 
 troubled at his saying, and cast 
 in her mind what manner of 
 salutation this should be. And 
 the Angel said unto her, Fear 
 not, Mary ; for thou hast found 
 favour with God. And behold, 
 thou shalt conceive in thy womb, 
 and bring forth a Son, and shalt 
 call His Name JESUS. He 
 shall be great, and shall be called 
 
 the Son of the Highest; and 
 the Lord God shall give unto 
 Him the throne of His father 
 David. And He shall reign 
 over the house of Jacob for ever; 
 and of His kingdom there shall 
 be no end. Then said Mary 
 unto the Angel, How shall this 
 be, seeing I know not a man ? 
 And the Angel answered and 
 said unto her. The Holy Ghost 
 shall come upon thee, and the 
 power of the Highest shall over- 
 shadow thee : therefore also that 
 Holy Thing which shall be born 
 of thee shall be called the Son 
 of God. And behold, thy cousin 
 Elizabeth, she hath also conceived 
 a son in her old age; and this is 
 the sixth month with her who was 
 called barren : for with God no- 
 thing shall be impossible. And 
 Mary said. Behold the handmaid 
 of the Lord ; be it unto me 
 according to thy word. And 
 the Angel departed from her.

 every branch that beareth fruit, 
 He purgeth it, that it may bring

 If a man abide not in Me, he is

 and if I go and prepare a place

 and the way ye know. Thomas 
 saith unto Him, Lord, we know 
 not whither Thou goest,and how 
 can we know the way ? Jesus 
 saith unto him, I am the Way, 
 the Truth, and the Life : no 
 man cometh unto the Father 
 but by Me. If ye had known 
 Me, ye should have known My 
 Father also : and from hence- 
 forth ye know Him, and have 
 seen Him. Philip saith unto 
 
 Him, Lord, shew us the Father, 
 and it sufficeth us. Jesus saith 
 unto Him, Have I been so long 
 time with you, and yet hast thou 
 not known Me, Philip? He that 
 hath seen Me hath seen the 
 Father ; and how sayest thou 
 then, Shew us the Father ? Be- 
 lievest thou not that I am in the 
 Father, and the Father in Me ? 
 The words that I speak unto 
 you I speak not of Myself; but 
 the Father that dwelleth in Me, 
 He doeth the works. Believe 
 Me, that I am in the Father, 
 and the Father in Me ; or else 
 believe Me for the very works' 
 sake. Verily, verily I say unto 
 you. He that believeth on Me, 
 the works that I do shall he do 
 also ; and greater works than 
 these shall he do, because I go 
 unto My Father. And whatso- 
 ever ye shall ask in My Name, 
 that will I do, that the Father 
 may be glorified in the Son. 
 If ye shall ask any thing in My

 she should be de-

 brought forth a 
 son. And her neighbours and her 
 cousins heard how the Lord had 
 shewed great mercy upon her ; 
 
 and they rejoiced with her. 
 And it came to pass, that on 
 the eighth day they came to cir- 
 cumcise the child ; and they 
 called him Zacharias, after the 
 name of his father. And his

 so ; but he shall be called John. 
 And they said unto her, There

 made signs to his father, how he 
 would have him called. And

 wrote, saying. His name is John. 
 And they marvelled all. And 
 his mouth was opened immedi-

 and he spake, and praised God. 
 And fear came on all that dwelt 
 round about them; and all these 
 sayings were noised abroad 
 throughout all the hill-country 
 of Judaea. And all they that 
 had heard them laid them up in 
 their hearts, saying. What man- 
 ner of child shall this be ? And 
 the hand of the Lord was with 
 him. And his father Zacharias 
 was filled with the Holy Ghost, 
 and prophesied, saying. Blessed 
 be the Lord God of Israel : for 
 He hath visited and redeemed 
 His people, and hath raised up 
 an horn of salvation for us in 
 the house of His servant David; 
 as He spake by the mouth of 
 His holy prophets, which have 
 been since the world began ; 
 
 that we should be saved from 
 our enemies, and from the hand 
 of all that hate us : to perform 
 the mercy promised to our fa- 
 thers, and to remember His holy 
 covenant ; the oath which He 
 sware to our father Abraham, 
 that He would grant unto us, 
 that we, being delivered out of 
 the hands of our enemies, might 
 serve Him without fear, in holi- 
 ness and righteousness before 
 Him all the days of our life. 
 And thou, Child, shalt be called 
 the Prophet of the Highest : for 
 thou shalt go before the face of 
 the Lord to prepare His ways ; 
 to give knowledge of salvation 
 unto His people, by the remis- 
 sion of their sins, through the 
 tender mercy of our God, where- 
 by the Day-spring from on high 
 hath visited us : to give light to 
 them that sit in darkness and in 
 the shadow of death, to guide 
 our feet into the way of peace. 
 And the child grew, and waxed 
 strong in spirit ; and was in the 
 deserts till the day of his shewing 
 unto Israel.

 St. John vi. 37. 
 
 ESUS said to His 
 disciples and to 
 the multitude, All 
 that the Father 
 giveth Me shall 
 come to Me; and him that cometh 
 to Me I will in no wise cast out. 
 For I came down from Heaven, 
 not to do Mine own will, but the 
 will of Him that sent Me. And 
 this is the Father's will Which 
 hath sent Me, that of all which He 
 hath given Me I should lose no- 
 thing, but should raise it up 
 again at the last day. And this 
 is the will of Him that sent Me, 
 that every one which seeth the 
 Son, and believeth on Him, may 
 have everlasting life : and I will 
 raise him up at the last day. 
 
 f Or else this. 
 
 St. John V. 24. 
 
 ESUS said to His 
 disciples and to the 
 multitude, Verily, 
 verily, I say unto 
 you. He thathear- 
 
 eth My Word, and believeth 
 on Him that sent Me, hath ever- 
 lasting life, and shall not come 
 into condemnation; but is passed 
 from death unto life. Verily, 
 verily, I say unto you, The hour 
 is coming, and now is, when the 
 dead shall hear the Voice of the 
 Son of God : and they that hear 
 shall live. For as the Father 
 hath life in Himself; so hath 
 He given to the Son to have life 
 in Himself; and hath given Him 
 authority to execute judgment 
 also, because He is the Son of 
 man. Marvel not at this : for 
 the hour is coming, in the which 
 all that are in the graves shall 
 hear His Voice, and shall come 
 forth; they that have done good, 
 unto the resurrection of life ; 
 and they that have done evil, 
 unto the resurrection of dam- 
 nation.

 ET your loins be 
 girded about, and 
 your lights burn- 
 ing; "and ye your- 
 selves like unto 
 men that wait for their Lord, 
 when he will return from the 
 wedding; that, when he cometh 
 and knocketh, they may open 
 unto him immediately. Blessed 
 
 are those servants, whom the 
 Lord when He cometh shall find 
 watching. Verily I say unto 
 you, that He shall gird Himself, 
 and make them to sit down to 
 meat, and will come forth and 
 serve them. And if He shall 
 come in the second watch, or 
 come in the third watch, and 
 find them so, blessed are those 
 servants.

 HEN Jesus saw 
 the multitudes. 
 He was moved 
 with compassion 
 on them, because 
 they fainted, and were scattered 
 
 abroad as sheep having no shep- 
 herd. Then saith He unto His 
 disciples. The harvest truly is 
 plenteous, but the labourers are 
 few. Pray ye therefore the 
 Lord of the harvest, that He 
 will send forth labourers into 
 His harvest.

 St. John X. I. 
 
 ERILY, verily I say 
 unto you, He that 
 entereth not by 
 the door into the 
 sheep-fold, but 
 climbeth up some other way, the 
 same is a thief and a robber. 
 But he that entereth in by the 
 door is the Shepherd of the 
 sheep. To him the porter 
 openeth, and the sheep hear his 
 voice ; and he calleth his own 
 sheep by name, and leadeth them 
 out. And when he putteth forth 
 his own sheep he goeth before 
 them, and the sheep follow 
 him ; for they know his voice. 
 And a stranger will they not 
 follow, but will flee from him ; 
 for they know not the voice of 
 strangers. This parable spake 
 Jesus unto them, but they under- 
 stood not what things they were 
 which He spake unto them. 
 Then said Jesus unto them again, 
 Verily, verily I say unto you, I 
 am the Door of the sheep. All 
 that ever came before Me are 
 
 thieves and robbers ; but the 
 sheep did not hear them. I am 
 the Door ; by Me if any man 
 enter in, he shall be saved, and 
 shall go in and out, and find 
 pasture. The thief cometh not 
 but for to steal, and to kill, and 
 to destroy : I am come that they 
 might have life, and that they 
 might have it more abundantly. 
 I am the good Shepherd : the 
 good Shepherd giveth His life 
 for the sheep. But he that is an 
 hireling, and not the Shepherd, 
 whose own the sheep are not, 
 seeth the wolf coming, and 
 leaveth the sheep, and fleeth ; 
 and the wolf catcheth them, and 
 scattereth the sheep. The hire- 
 ling fleeth, because he is an hire- 
 ling, and careth not for the sheep. 
 I am the good Shepherd, and 
 know My sheep, and am known 
 of Mine. As the Father know- 
 eth Me, even so know I the Fa- 
 ther; and I lay down My life 
 for the sheep. And other sheep 
 I have, which are not of this 
 fold : them also I must bring, 
 and they shall hear My voice ; 
 and there shall be One Fold, and 
 One Shepherd.

 saith unto Him, Yea, Lord, Thou 
 knowest that I love Thee. He 
 saith unto him. Feed My lambs.

 Yea, Lord, Thou knowest that 
 I love Thee. He saith unto 
 him. Feed My sheep. He saith 
 unto him the third time, Simon,

 Peter was grieved because He 
 said unto him the third time, 
 Lovest thou Me ? And he said 
 unto Him, Lord, Thou knowest

 I love Thee. Jesus saith unto 
 him, Feed My sheep.

 HE same day at 
 evening, being the 
 first day of the 
 week, when the 
 doors were shut 
 where the disciples were assem- 
 bled for fear of the Jews, came 
 Jesus, and stood in the midst, 
 and saith unto them. Peace be 
 unto you. And when He had 
 so said, He shewed unto them 
 His Hands and His Side. Then 
 were the disciples glad, when 
 they saw the Lord. Then saith 
 Jesus to them again, Peace be 
 unto you : as My Father hath 
 sent Me, even so send I you. 
 And when He had said this, He 
 breathed on them, and saith 
 unto them. Receive ye the Holy 
 Ghost. Whosesoever sins ye re- 
 mit, they are remitted unto them; 
 and whosesoever sins ye retain, 
 they are retained.

 unto Him their 
 disciples, with the 
 Herodians, saying. 
 Master, we know 
 that Thou art true, and teachest 
 the way of God in truth, neither 
 carest Thou for any man : for 
 Thou regardest not the person 
 of men. Tell us therefore, 
 What thinkest Thou ? Is it law- 
 ful to give tribute unto Caesar, 
 or not .? But Jesus perceived 
 
 their wickedness, and said. Why 
 tempt ye Me, ye hypocrites ? 
 shew Me the tribute-money. 
 And they brought unto Him a 
 peny. And He saith unto them, 
 Whose is this image and super- 
 scription } They say unto Him, 
 Caesar's. Then saith He unto 
 them, Render therefore unto 
 Caesar the things which are 
 Caesar's ; and unto God the 
 things that are God's. When 
 they had heard these words, 
 they marvelled, and left Him, 
 and went their way. '
