Saturday, July 23 : Holy Gospel according to Saint Luke 22,24-30.
And there was also a strife amongst them, which of them should seem to be the greater.
And he said to them: The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and they that have power over them are called beneficent.
But you not so: but he that is the greater among you, let him become as the younger: and he that is the leader, as he that serveth.
For which is greater, he that sitteth at table or he that serveth? Is not he that sitteth at table? But I am in the midst of you, as he that serveth.
And you are they who have continued with me in my temptations:
And I dispose to you, as my Father hath disposed to me, a kingdom;
That you may eat and drink at my table, in my kingdom: and may sit upon thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
