Scripture Reading for Tuesday, February 16, 2021 Mark 12:18-27 18 Then some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Him; and they asked Him, saying: 19 Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's brother dies, and leaves his wife behind, and leaves no children, his brother should take his wife and raise up offspring for his brother. 20 Now there were seven brothers. The first took a wife; and dying, he left no offspring. 21 And the second took her, and he died; no...r did he leave any offspring. And the third likewise. 22 So the seven had her and left no offspring. Last of all the woman died also. 23 Therefore, in the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be? For all seven had her as wife. 24 Jesus answered and said to them, "Are you not therefore mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures nor the power of God? 25 For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. 26 But concerning the dead, that they rise, have you not read in the book of Moses, in the burning bush passage, how God spoke to him, saying, 'I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'? 27 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living. You are therefore greatly mistaken.

Мойсей написав нам: якщо в кого помре брат залишить жнку, то брат його нехай взьме жнку його вдродить потомство братов свому. 20 Було см братв: перший узяв жнку помер, не залишивши дтей. 21 Узяв другий помер, вн теж не залишив дтей; третй так само. 22 Брали за себе семеро не залишили дтей. Псля всх померла й жнка. 23 Отже, в час воскресння, коли воскреснуть, котрого з них буде вона жнкою? Бо семеро мали за жнку. 24 сус сказав м у вдповдь: чи не тому ви й помилятеся, що не знате н Писання, ан сили Божо? 25 Бо, коли воскреснуть з мертвих, тод не будуть н женитися, н замж виходити, а будуть як ангели на небесах. 26 А про мертвих, що вони воскреснуть, хба не читали ви в книз Мойсея, як при купин Бог сказав йому: Я Бог Авраама, Бог саака, Бог Якова? 27 Бог не Бог мертвих, а Бог живих. Отже, ви дуже помилятесь.

Scripture Reading for Wednesday, November 25, 2020 Luke 12:48-59 48 But he who did not know, yet committed things deserving of stripes, shall be beaten with few. For everyone to whom much is given, from him much will be required; and to whom much has been committed, of him they will ask the more. 49 I came to send fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! 50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am till it is accomplished! 51 Do you s...uppose that I came to give peace on earth? I tell you, not at all, but rather division. 52 For from now on five in one house will be divided: three against two, and two against three. 53 Father will be divided against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. 54 Then He also said to the multitudes, "Whenever you see a cloud rising out of the west, immediately you say, 'A shower is coming'; and so it is. 55 And when you see the south wind blow, you say, 'There will be hot weather'; and there is. 56 Hypocrites! You can discern the face of the sky and of the earth, but how is it you do not discern this time? 57 Yes, and why, even of yourselves, do you not judge what is right? 58 When you go with your adversary to the magistrate, make every effort along the way to settle with him, lest he drag you to the judge, the judge deliver you to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison. 59 I tell you, you shall not depart from there till you have paid the very last mite.

Н, кажу вам, а роздлення. 52 Бо вднин п’ятеро в одному дом роздлен: тро проти двох, дво проти трьох. 53 Роздлиться батько з сином, син з батьком; мати з дочкою, дочка з матр’ю; свекруха з невсткою свою, невстка з свекрухою свою. 54 Сказав же до народу: коли ви побачите хмару, що йде з заходу, то вдразу говорите: дощ буде, бува так. 55 коли в пвденний втер, говорите: спека буде, бува. 56 Лицемри! Лице неба земл розпзнавати умте; як же час цей не розпзнате? 57 Чому ж ви по соб не судите, що справедливе? 58 Коли ти йдеш з супротивником свом до правителя, то дорогою подбай, щоб звльнитися вд нього, щоб вн не притяг тебе до судд, а суддя не вддав тебе слуз, а слуга не посадив би тебе до в’язниц. 59 Кажу тоб: не вийдеш звдти, аж поки не вддаси й останнього гроша.

Scripture Reading for Thursday, November 19, 2020 Luke 11:47-12:1 47 Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them. 48 In fact, you bear witness that you approve the deeds of your fathers; for they indeed killed them, and you build their tombs. 49 Therefore the wisdom of God also said, 'I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they will kill and persecute,' 50 that the blood of all the prophets which was shed from the founda...tion of the world may be required of this generation, 51 from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah who perished between the altar and the temple. Yes, I say to you, it shall be required of this generation. 52 Woe to you lawyers! For you have taken away the key of knowledge. You did not enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in you hindered. 53 And as He said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to assail Him vehemently, and to cross-examine Him about many things, 54 lying in wait for Him, and seeking to catch Him in something He might say, that they might accuse Him. 1 In the meantime, when an innumerable multitude of people had gathered together, so that they trampled one another, He began to say to His disciples first of all, "Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

Scripture Reading for Monday, November 23, 2020 Luke 12:13-15, 22-31 13 Then one from the crowd said to Him, "Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me." 14 But He said to him, "Man, who made Me a judge or an arbitrator over you?" 15 And He said to them, "Take heed and beware of covetousness, for one's life does not consist in the abundance of the things he possesses." 22 Then He said to His disciples, "Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, wh...at you will eat; nor about the body, what you will put on. 23 Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing. 24 Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap, which have neither storehouse nor barn; and God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds? 25 And which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? 26 If you then are not able to do the least, why are you anxious for the rest? 27 Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 28 If then God so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith? 29 And do not seek what you should eat or what you should drink, nor have an anxious mind. 30 For all these things the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that you need these things. 31 But seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you.

Scripture Reading for Tuesday, November 17, 2020 Luke 11:34-41 34 The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore, when your eye is good, your whole body also is full of light. But when your eye is bad, your body also is full of darkness. 35 Therefore take heed that the light which is in you is not darkness. 36 If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, the whole body will be full of light, as when the bright shining of a lamp gives you light. 37 And as He spok...e, a certain Pharisee asked Him to dine with him. So He went in and sat down to eat. 38 When the Pharisee saw it, he marveled that He had not first washed before dinner. 39 Then the Lord said to him, "Now you Pharisees make the outside of the cup and dish clean, but your inward part is full of greed and wickedness. 40 Foolish ones!
