Matins Gospel
Stand in the fear of God and listen to the Holy Gospel.
A reading from the Gospel according to our teacher Saint Matthew the Evangelist.
May His Blessings be with us all.
Matthew 3 : 13 - 17
Chapter 3
| 13 | Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan to be baptized by him.
|
| 14 | And John tried to prevent Him, saying, "I need to be baptized by You, and are You coming to me?"
|
| 15 | But Jesus answered and said to him, "Permit it to be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness." Then he allowed Him.
|
| 16 | When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him.
|
| 17 | And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
|
And Glory be to God forever.
