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 14 : 1 - 5
Chapter 14
| 1 | At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the report about Jesus
|
| 2 | and said to his servants, "This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him."
|
| 3 | For Herod had laid hold of John and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.
|
| 4 | Because John had said to him, "It is not lawful for you to have her."
|
| 5 | And although he wanted to put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
|
And Glory be to God forever.
