Notes for Future Use
MARK
16:1 And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him.
16:2 And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun.
16:3 And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre? 16:4 And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great.
16:5 And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.
16:6 And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.
16:7 But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.
16:8 And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for they were afraid.
16:9 Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.
16:10 And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.
16:11 And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.
16:12 After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country.
16:13 And they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them.
16:14 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.
16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
16:17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 16:18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
16:19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
16:20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
Easter Vigil
The original twelve Old Testament readings for the Easter Vigil survive in an ancient manuscript belonging to the Armenian Patriarchate of Jerusalem. The Armenian Easter Vigil also preserves what is believed to be the original length of the traditional gospel reading of the Easter Vigil, i.e., from the Last Supper account to the end of the Gospel according to Matthew. In the earliest Jerusalem usage the vigil began with Psalm 117 [118] sung with the response, "This is the day which the Lord has made." Then followed twelve Old Testament readings, all but the last being followed by a prayer with kneeling.
(1) Genesis 1:1--3:24 (the story of creation);
(2) Genesis 22:1-18 (the binding of Isaac);
(3) Exodus 12:1-24 (the Passover charter narrative);
(4) Jonah 1:1--4:11 (the story of Jonah);
(5) Exodus 14:24--15:21 (crossing of the Red Sea);
(6) Isaiah 60:1-13 (the promise to Jerusalem);
(7) Job 38:2-28 (the Lord's answer to Job);
(8) 2 Kings 2:1-22 (the assumption of Elijah);
(9) Jeremiah 31:31-34 (the new covenant);
(10) Joshua 1:1-9 (entry into the Promised Land);
(11) Ezekiel 37:1-14 (the valley of dry bones);
(12) Daniel 3:1-29 (the story of the three youths).
Invitation for Church
Hello, folks.
Easter is this Sunday. If you’d like to go to a church service but don't know where to go, I invite you to come with me, Helen, and the kids. We'll be going to Clearnote Church on the southwest side of town, 10:30-12. I know some of you aren't believers. You're invited too, even if you just want to come and complete your cultural education by watching our peculiar rites.
Please pardon the group email; I don't know who might be interested.
