Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time
2014
FIRST READING 26 October
Isaiah
43:18-19.21-22.24First Reading:
Exodus 22:20-26
The Lord said to Moses, Tell the sons of Israel this, “You
must not molest the stranger or oppress him, for you lived
as strangers in the land of Egypt. You must not be harsh
with the widow, or with the orphan; if you are harsh with
them, they will surely cry out to me, and be sure I shall
hear their cry; my anger will flare and I shall kill you with
the sword, your own wives will be widows, your own
children orphans. “If you lend money to any of my people,
to any poor man among you, you must not play the usurer
with him: you must not demand interest from him. “If you
take another’s cloak as a pledge, you must give it back to
him before sunset. It is all the covering he has; it is the
cloak he wraps his body in; what else would he sleep in?
If he cries to me, I will listen, for I am full of pity.
Response to Psalm: I love you, Lord, my strength.
Second Reading:
Thessalonians 1:5-10
You observed the sort of life we lived when we were with
you, which was for your instruction, and you were led to
become imitators of us, and of the Lord; and it was with
the joy of the Holy Spirit that you took to the gospel, in
spite of the great opposition all round you. This has made
you the great example to all believers in Macedonia and
Achaia since it was from you that the word of the Lord
started to spread – and not only throughout Macedonia
and Achaia, for the news of your faith in God has spread
everywhere. We do not need to tell other people about it:
other people tell us how we started the work among you,
how you broke with idolatry when you were converted to
God and became servants of the real, living God; and
how you are now waiting for Jesus, his Son, whom he
raised from the dead, to come from heaven to save us
from the retribution which is coming.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Open our heart, O Lord,
to accept the words of your Son.
Alleluia!
Gospel:
Matthew 22:34-40
When the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the
Sadducees they got together and, to disconcert him, one
of them put a question, ‘Master, which is the greatest
commandment of the Law?’ Jesus said, ‘You must love
the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul,
and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first
commandment. The second resembles it: You must love
your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments
hang the whole Law, and the Prophets also.’
