Saturday, December 9 : Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 5,27-32.
After this Jesus went out and saw a tax-collector named Levi, sitting at the tax booth; and he said to him, ‘Follow me.’
And he got up, left everything, and followed him.
Then Levi gave a great banquet for him in his house; and there was a large crowd of tax-collectors and others sitting at the table with them.
The Pharisees and their scribes were complaining to his disciples, saying, ‘Why do you eat and drink with tax-collectors and sinners?’
Jesus answered, ‘Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick;
I have come to call not the righteous but sinners to repentance.’
