## Readings of the day

- Epistle

  Hebrews 7:18–25

  **Show the text**

  18 For there is an annulling of a foregoing commandment because of its weakness and uselessness

  19 (for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.

  20 Inasmuch as he was not made priest without the taking of an oath

  21 (for they indeed have been made priests without an oath), but he with an oath by him that says of him, “The Lord swore and will not change his mind, ‘You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.’ ”

  22 By so much, Jesus has become the collateral of a better covenant.

  23 Many, indeed, have been made priests, because they are hindered from continuing by death.

  24 But he, because he lives forever, has his priesthood unchangeable.

  25 Therefore he is also able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, seeing that he lives forever to make intercession for them.

- Gospel

  Luke 21:37–22:8

  **Show the text**

  37 Every day Jesus was teaching in the temple, and every night he would go out and spend the night on the mountain that is called Olivet.

  38 All the people came early in the morning to him in the temple to hear him.

  1 Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, was approaching.

  2 The chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death, for they feared the people.

  3 Satan entered into Judas, who was also called Iscariot, who was counted with the twelve.

  4 He went away, and talked with the chief priests and captains about how he might deliver him to them.

  5 They were glad, and agreed to give him money.

  6 He consented, and sought an opportunity to deliver him to them in the absence of the multitude.

  7 The day of unleavened bread came, on which the Passover must be sacrificed.

  8 Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat.”
