    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Hebrews 4:1-5, 11

    1Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest remains, let us fear lest any of you be judged to have failed to reach it.2For good news came to us just as to them;but the message which they heard did not benefit them, because it did not meet with faith in the hearers.3For we who have believed enter that rest, as he has said, "As I swore in my wrath, `They shall never enter my rest, '"although his works were finished from the foundation of the world.4For he has somewhere spoken of the seventh day in this way, "And God rested on the seventh day from all his works."5And again in this place he said, "They shall never enter my rest."11Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, that no one fall by the same sort of disobedience.

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    Psalms 78:3, 4, 6-8

    3things that we have heard and known, that our fathers have told us. 4We will not hide them from their children, but tell to the coming generation the glorious deeds of the LORD, and his might, and the wonders which he has wrought. 6that the next generation might know them, the children yet unborn, and arise and tell them to their children, 7so that they should set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments;8and that they should not be like their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation, a generation whose heart was not steadfast, whose spirit was not faithful to God.

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    Mark 2:1-12

    1And when he returned to Caper'na-um after some days, it was reported that he was at home. 2And many were gathered together, so that there was no longer room for them, not even about the door;and he was preaching the word to them. 3And they came, bringing to him a paralytic carried by four men. 4And when they could not get near him because of the crowd, they removed the roof above him;and when they had made an opening, they let down the pallet on which the paralytic lay. 5And when Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "My son, your sins are forgiven." 6Now some of the scribes were sitting there, questioning in their hearts, 7"Why does this man speak thus? It is blasphemy! Who can forgive sins but God alone?" 8And immediately Jesus, perceiving in his spirit that they thus questioned within themselves, said to them, "Why do you question thus in your hearts? 9Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, `Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, `Rise, take up your pallet and walk'? 10But that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins" -- he said to the paralytic -- 11"I say to you, rise, take up your pallet and go home." 12And he rose, and immediately took up the pallet and went out before them all;so that they were all amazed and glorified God, saying, "We never saw anything like this!"

  • MONDAY SECOND WEEK OF ORDINARY TIME 2017:

    Ordinary Time.

    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Heb 5:1-10

    Brothers and sisters:
    Every high priest is taken from among men
    and made their representative before God,
    to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.
    He is able to deal patiently with the ignorant and erring,
    for he himself is beset by weakness
    and so, for this reason, must make sin offerings for himself
    as well as for the people.
    No one takes this honor upon himself
    but only when called by God,
    just as Aaron was.
    In the same way,
    it was not Christ who glorified himself in becoming high priest,
    but rather the one who said to him:
    You are my Son:
    this day I have begotten you;

    just as he says in another place,
    You are a priest forever
    according to the order of Melchizedek.

    In the days when he was in the Flesh,
    he offered prayers and supplications with loud cries and tears
    to the one who was able to save him from death,
    and he was heard because of his reverence.
    Son though he was, he learned obedience from what he suffered;
    and when he was made perfect,
    he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him.

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    PS 110:1, 2, 3, 4

    R.(4b) You are a priest for ever, in the line of Melchizedek.
    The LORD said to my Lord: “Sit at my right hand
    till I make your enemies your footstool.”
    R. You are a priest for ever, in the line of Melchizedek.
    The scepter of your power the LORD will stretch forth from Zion:
    “Rule in the midst of your enemies.”
    R. You are a priest for ever, in the line of Melchizedek.
    “Yours is princely power in the day of your birth, in holy splendor;
    before the daystar, like the dew, I have begotten you.”
    R. You are a priest for ever, in the line of Melchizedek.
    The LORD has sworn, and he will not repent:
    “You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.”
    R. You are a priest for ever, in the line of Melchizedek.

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    Mk 2:18-22

    The disciples of John and of the Pharisees were accustomed to fast.
    People came to Jesus and objected,
    "Why do the disciples of John and the disciples of the Pharisees fast,
    but your disciples do not fast?"
    Jesus answered them,
    "Can the wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them?
    As long as they have the bridegroom with them they cannot fast.
    But the days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them,
    and then they will fast on that day.
    No one sews a piece of unshrunken cloth on an old cloak.
    If he does, its fullness pulls away,
    the new from the old, and the tear gets worse.
    Likewise, no one pours new wine into old wineskins.
    Otherwise, the wine will burst the skins,
    and both the wine and the skins are ruined.
    Rather, new wine is poured into fresh wineskins."
