## Readings of the day

- Epistle

  1 Timothy 1:8–14

  **Show the text**

  8 But we know that the law is good, if a person uses it lawfully,

  9 as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

  10 for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and for any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine,

  11 according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

  12 I thank him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service;

  13 although I used to be a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

  14 The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

- Epistle · Theotokos

  Hebrews 9:1–7

  **Show the text**

  1 Now indeed even the first covenant had ordinances of divine service and an earthly sanctuary.

  2 For a tabernacle was prepared. In the first part were the lamp stand, the table, and the show bread; which is called the Holy Place.

  3 After the second veil was the tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies,

  4 having a golden altar of incense, and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which was a golden pot holding the manna, Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant;

  5 and above it cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat, of which things we can’t speak now in detail.

  6 Now these things having been thus prepared, the priests go in continually into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the services,

  7 but into the second the high priest alone, once in the year, not without blood, which he offers for himself, and for the errors of the people.
