    Easter Time.

    FIRST LECTURE OF THE MASS

    Acts 28:16-20, 30-31

    When he entered Rome, Paul was allowed to live by himself,
    with the soldier who was guarding him.

    Three days later he called together the leaders of the Jews.
    When they had gathered he said to them, “My brothers,
    although I had done nothing against our people
    or our ancestral customs,
    I was handed over to the Romans as a prisoner from Jerusalem.
    After trying my case the Romans wanted to release me,
    because they found nothing against me deserving the death penalty.
    But when the Jews objected, I was obliged to appeal to Caesar,
    even though I had no accusation to make against my own nation.
    This is the reason, then, I have requested to see you
    and to speak with you, for it is on account of the hope of Israel
    that I wear these chains.”

    He remained for two full years in his lodgings.
    He received all who came to him, and with complete assurance
    and without hindrance he proclaimed the Kingdom of God
    and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ.

    RESPONSORIAL PSALM

    PS 11:4, 5 and 7

    R. (see 7b) The just will gaze on your face, O Lord.
    or:
    R. Alleluia.
    The LORD is in his holy temple;
    the LORD’s throne is in heaven.
    His eyes behold,
    his searching glance is on mankind.
    R. The just will gaze on your face, O Lord.
    or:
    R. Alleluia.
    The LORD searches the just and the wicked;
    the lover of violence he hates.
    For the LORD is just, he loves just deeds;
    the upright shall see his face.
    R. The just will gaze on your face, O Lord.
    or:
    R. Alleluia.

    GOSPEL OF THE MASS

    Jn 21:20-25

    Peter turned and saw the disciple following whom Jesus loved,
    the one who had also reclined upon his chest during the supper
    and had said, “Master, who is the one who will betray you?”
    When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, “Lord, what about him?”
    Jesus said to him, “What if I want him to remain until I come?
    What concern is it of yours?
    You follow me.”
    So the word spread among the brothers that that disciple would not die.
    But Jesus had not told him that he would not die,
    just “What if I want him to remain until I come?
    What concern is it of yours?”

    It is this disciple who testifies to these things
    and has written them, and we know that his testimony is true.
    There are also many other things that Jesus did,
    but if these were to be described individually,
    I do not think the whole world would contain the books
    that would be written.
