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 4 : 22 - 30
Chapter 4
| 22 | So all bore witness to Him, and marveled at the gracious words which proceeded out of His mouth. And they said, "Is this not Joseph's son?"
|
| 23 | He said to them, "You will surely say this proverb to Me, "Physician, heal yourself! Whatever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in Your country."'
|
| 24 | Then He said, "Assuredly, I say to you, no prophet is accepted in his own country.
|
| 25 | But I tell you truly, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, and there was a great famine throughout all the land;
|
| 26 | but to none of them was Elijah sent except to Zarephath, in the region of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow.
|
| 27 | And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian."
|
| 28 | So all those in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath,
|
| 29 | and rose up and thrust Him out of the city; and they led Him to the brow of the hill on which their city was built, that they might throw Him down over the cliff.
|
| 30 | Then passing through the midst of them, He went His way.
|
And Glory be to God forever.
