Saturday of the second week of the resurrection.
First letter of Peter 2:11-17
11 Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul; 12 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation. 13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; 14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well. 15 For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men: 16 As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God. 17 Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 22:41-46
41 While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, 42 What do you think of Christ? whose son is he? They say to him, The son of David. 43 He said to them, How is it then that David in spirit call him Lord, saying, 44 The LORD said to my Lord, Sit on my right hand, till I make your enemies your footstool? 45 If David then calls him Lord, how is he his son? 46 And no man was able to answer him a word, neither dared any man from that day to ask him any more questions.
