December 3rd : Feast Reading.
A Reading from the Book of Isaiah 61:1-3
THE ANOINTED BEARER OF GLAD TIDINGS
The spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me; He has sent me to bring good news to the afflicted, to bind up the brokenhearted,To proclaim liberty to the captives, release to the prisoners,To announce a year of favor from the LORD and a day of vindication by our God; To comfort all who mourn;to place on those who mourn in Zion a diadem instead of ashes,To give them oil of gladness instead of mourning,a glorious mantle instead of a faint spirit. They will be called oaks of justice, the planting of the LORD to show his glory.
The Word of the Lord.
