Matins Gospel
Stand in the fear of God and listen to the Holy Gospel.
A reading from the Gospel according to our teacher Saint Luke the Evangelist.
May His Blessings be with us all.
Luke 7 : 24 - 28
Chapter 7
24 | When the messengers of John had departed, He began to speak to the multitudes concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
|
25 | But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Indeed those who are gorgeously appareled and live in luxury are in kings' courts.
|
26 | But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
|
27 | This is he of whom it is written: "Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.'
|
28 | For I say to you, among those born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he."
|
And Glory be to God forever.
