SUMMARY:Great Vigil of Easter
DESCRIPTION:The Collect. \nOGOD\, who for our redemption didst give thine only-begotten Son to the death of the Cross\, and by his glorious resurrection hast delivered us from the power of our enemy; Grant us so to die daily from sin\, that we may evermore live with him in the joy of his resurrection; through the same Christ our Lord. Amen. \n\nThe Epistle. 1 Cor. v. 6. \nKNOW ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? Purge out therefore the old leaven\, that ye may be a new lump\, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: therefore let us keep the feast\, not with old leaven\, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. \n\nThe Gospel. St. Mark xvi. 1. \nWHEN 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. And very early in the morning the first day of the week\, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun. And they said among themselves\, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre? And when they looked\, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great. 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. 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. 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. And they went out quickly\, and fled from the sepulchre; for they trembled and were amazed: neither said they anything to any man; for they were afraid.

SUMMARY:Good Friday
DESCRIPTION:Good Friday \n\nThe Collects. \nALMIGHTY God\, we beseech thee graciously to behold this thy family\, for which our Lord Jesus Christ was contented to be betrayed and given up into the hands of wicked men\, and to suffer death upon the cross; who now liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost ever\, one God\, world without end. Amen. \nALMIGHTY and everlasting God\, by whose Spirit the whole body of the Church is governed and sanctified; Receive our supplications and prayers\, which we offer before thee for all estates of men in thy holy Church\, that every member of the same\, in his vocation and ministry\, may truly and godly serve thee; through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen. \nO MERCIFUL God\, who hast made all men\, and hatest nothing that thou hast made\, nor desirest the death of a sinner\, but rather that he should be converted and live; Have mercy upon all Jews\, Turks\, infidels\, and heretics; and take from them all ignorance\, hardness of heart\, and contempt of thy Word; and so fetch them home\, blessed Lord\, to thy flock\, that they may be saved among the remnant of the true Israelites\, and be made one fold under one shepherd\, Jesus Christ our Lord\, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit\, one God\, world without end. Amen. \nThe Epistle. Heb. x. 1. \nTHE law having a shadow of good things to come\, and not the very image of the things\, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the corners thereunto perfect. For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins. But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year. For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. Wherefore when he cometh into the world\, he saith\, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not\, but a body hast thou prepared me: in burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure. Then said I\, Lo\, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me\,) to do thy will\, O God. Above when he said\, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not\, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law; then said he\, Lo\, I come to do thy will\, O God. He taketh away the first\, that he may establish the second. By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices\, which can never take away sins: but this man\, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever\, sat down on the right hand of God; from hence-forth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool. For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified. Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before\, This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days\, saith the Lord\, I will put my laws into their hearts\, and in their minds will I write them; and their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. Now where remission of these is\, there is no more offering for sin. Having therefore\, brethren\, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus\, by a new and living way\, which he hath consecrated for us\, through the veil\, that is to say\, his flesh; and having an high priest over the house of God; let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith\, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience\, and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) and let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together\, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more\, as ye see the day approaching. \n\nThe Gospel. St. John xix. 1. \nPILATE therefore took Jesus\, and scourged him. And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns\, and put it on his head\, and they put on him a purple robe\, and said\, Hail\, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands. Pilate therefore went forth again\, and saith unto them\, Behold\, I bring him forth to you\, that ye may know that I find no fault in him. Then came Jesus forth\, wearing the crown of thorns\, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them\, Behold the man! When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him\, they cried out\, saying\, Crucify him\, crucify him.\, Pilate saith unto them\, Take ye him\, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him. The Jews answered him\, We have a law\, and by our law he ought to die\, because he made himself the Son of God. When Pilate therefore heard that saying\, he was the more afraid; and went again into the judgment hall\, and saith unto Jesus\, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer. Then saith Pilate unto him\, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee\, and have power to release thee? Jesus answered\, Thou couldest have no power at all against me\, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin. And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out\, saying\, If thou let this man go\, thou art not Cæsar’s friend: whosoever maketh himself a king\, speaketh against Cæsar. When Pilate therefore heard that saying\, he brought Jesus forth\, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement\, but in the Hebrew\, Gabbatha. And it was the preparation of the passover\, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews\, Behold your King! But they cried out\, Away with him\, away with him\, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them\, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered\, We have no king but Cæsar. Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus\, and led him away. And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull\, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha: where they crucified him\, and two other with him\, on either side one\, and Jesus in the midst. And Pilate wrote a title and put it on the cross. And the writing was\, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS. This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city; and it was written in Hebrew\, and Greek\, and Latin. Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate\, Write not\, The King of the Jews; but that he said\, I am King of the Jews. Pilate answered\, What I have written I have written. Then the soldiers\, when they had crucified Jesus\, took his garments\, and made four parts\, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam\, woven from the top throughout. They said therefore among themselves\, Let us not rend it\, but cast lots for it\, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled\, which saith\, They parted my raiment among them\, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did. Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother\, add his mother’s sister\, Mary the wife of Cleophas\, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus therefore saw his mother\, and the disciple standing by\, whom he loved\, he saith unto his mother\, Woman\, behold thy son! Then saith he to the disciple\, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home. After this\, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished\, that the scripture might be fulfilled\, saith\, I thirst. Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar\, and put it upon hyssop\, and put it to his mouth. When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar\, he said\, It is finished: and he bowed his head\, and gave up the ghost. The Jews therefore\, because it was the preparation\, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day\, (for that sabbath day was an high day\,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken\, and that they might be taken away. Then came the soldiers\, and brake the legs of the first\, and of the other which was crucified with him. But when they came to Jesus\, and saw that he was dead already\, the brake not his legs: but one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side\, and forthwith came there out blood and water. And he that saw it bare record\, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true\, that ye might believe. For these things were done\, that the scripture should be fulfilled\, A bone of him shall not be broken. And again another scripture saith\, They shall look on him whom they pierced.

SUMMARY:Maundy Thursday
DESCRIPTION:Thursday before Easter.\nCommonly called Maundy Thursday \nThe Collect.  \nALMIGHTY Father\, whose dear Son\, on the night before he suffered\, did institute the Sacrament of his Body and Blood; Mercifully grant that we may thankfully receive the same in remembrance of him\, who in these holy mysteries giveth us a pledge of life eternal; the same thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord\, who now liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit ever\, one God\, world without end. Amen. \nThe Epistle. 1 Cor. xi. 23. \nI have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you\, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: and when he had given thanks\, he brake it\, and said\, Take\, eat: this is my body\, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me After the same manner also he took the cup\, when he had supped\, saying\, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye\, as oft as ye drink it\, in remembrance of me. For as often as ye eat this bread\, and drink this cup\, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come. \nThe Gospel. St. John xiii. 1.  \nNOW before the feast of the passover\, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father\, having loved his own which were in the world\, he loved them unto the end. And supper being ended\, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot\, Simon’s son\, to betray him; Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands\, and that he was come from God\, and went to God; he riseth from supper\, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel\, and girded himself. After that he poureth water into a bason\, and began to wash the disciples’ feet\, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded. Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him\, Lord\, dost thou wash my feet? Jesus answered and said unto him\, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter. Peter saith unto him\, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him\, If I wash thee not\, thou hast no part with me. Simon Peter saith unto him\, Lord\, not my feet only\, but also my hands and my head. Jesus saith to him\, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet\, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean\, but not all. For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he\, Ye are not all clean. So after he had washed their feet\, and had taken his garments\, and was set down again\, he said unto them\, Know ye what I have done to you? Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am. If I then\, your Lord and Master\, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another’s feet. For I have given you an example\, that ye should do as I have done to you.

SUMMARY:Ash Wednesday
DESCRIPTION:The first day of Lent\, commonly called\nAsh-Wednesday \n\nThe Collect. \nALMIGHTY and everlasting God\, who hatest nothing that thou hast made\, and dost forgive the sins of all those who are penitent; Create and make in us new and contrite hearts\, that we\,worthily lamenting our sins and acknowledging our wretchedness. may obtain of thee\, the God of all mercy\, perfect remission and forgiveness; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. \nFor the Epistle. Joel ii. 12. \nTURN ye even to me\, saith the Lord\, with all your heart\, and with fasting\, and with weeping\, and with mourning: and rend your heart\, and not your garments\, and turn unto the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful\, slow to anger\, and of great kindness\, and repenteth him of the evil. Who knoweth if he will return and repent\, and leave a blessing behind him; even a meat offering and a drink offering unto the Lord your God? Blow the trumpet in Zion\, sanctify a fast\, call a solemn assembly: gather the people\, sanctify the congregation\, assemble the elders\, gather the children\, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber\, and the bride out of her closet. Let the priests\, the ministers of the Lord\, weep between the porch and the altar\, and let them say\, Spare thy people\, O Lord\, and give not thine heritage to reproach\, that the heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people\, Where is their God? \n\nThe Gospel. St. Matt. vi. 16. \nWHEN ye fast\, be not\, as the hypocrites\, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces\, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you\, They have their reward. But thou\, when thou fastest\, anoint thine head\, and wash thy face; that thou appear not unto men to fast\, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father\, which seeth in secret\, shall reward thee openly. Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth\, where moth and rust doth corrupt\, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven\, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt\, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: for where your treasure is\, there will your heart be also.

SUMMARY:Christmas Day
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECT. \nAlmighty God\, who hast given us thy only-begotten Son to take our nature upon him\, and as at this time to be born of a pure Virgin: Grant that we being regenerate\, and made thy children by adoption and grace\, may daily be renewed by thy Holy Spirit; through the same our Lord Jesus Christ\, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the same Spirit\, ever one God\, world without end.  Amen. \nTHE EPISTLE.  Hebr. 1. 1 \nGOD\, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets\, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son\, whom he hath appointed heir of all things\, by whom also he made the worlds; who being the brightness of his glory\, and the express image of his person\, and upholding all things by the word of his power\, when he had by himself purged our sins\, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; being made so much better than the angels\, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.  For unto which of the angels said he at any time\, Thou art my Son\, this day have I begotten thee?  And again\, I will be to him a Father\, and he shall be to me a Son?  And again\, when he bringeth in the first-begotten into the world\, he saith\, And let all the angels of God worship him.  And of the angels he saith\, Who maketh his angels spirits\, and his ministers a flame of fire.  But unto the Son he saith\, Thy throne\, O God\, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom: Thou hast loved righteousness\, and hated iniquity; therefore God\, even thy God\, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.  And again he saith\, Thou\, Lord\, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: they shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment; and as a vesture shalt thou fold them up\, and they shall be changed; but thou art the same\, and thy years shall not fail. \nTHE GOSPEL.  S. John 1. 1 \nIN the beginning was the Word\, and the Word was with God\, and the Word was God.  The same was in the beginning with God.  All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.  In him was life; and the life was the light of men.  And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.  There was a man sent from God\, whose name was John.  The same came for a witness\, to bear witness of the light\, that all men through him might believe.  He was not that light\, but was sent to bear witness of that light.  That was the true light\, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.  He was in the world\, and the world was made by him\, and the world knew him not.  He came unto his own\, and his own received him not.  But as many as received him\, to them gave he power to become the sons of God\, even to them that believe on his Name: which were born\, not of blood\, nor of the will of the flesh\, nor of the will of man\, but of God.  And the Word was made flesh\, and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory\, the glory as of the only-begotten of the Father) full of grace and truth.

SUMMARY:The Ascension Day
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECT. \nGRANT\, we beseech thee\, Almighty God\, that since we do believe thy only-begotten Son our Lord Jesus Christ to have ascended into the heavens; so we may also in heart and mind thither ascend\, and with him continually dwell\, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost\, one God\, world without end.  Amen. \nTHE EPISTLE.  Acts 1. 1\nTHE former treatise have I made\, O Theophilus\, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach\, until the day in which he was taken up\, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen: to whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion\, by many infallible proofs; being seen of them forty days\, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God: and\, being assembled together with them\, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem\, but wait for the promise of the Father\, which\, saith he\, ye have heard of me.  For John truly baptized with water\, but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.  When they therefore were come together\, they asked of him\, saying\, Lord\, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?  And he said unto them\, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons\, which the Father hath put in his own power.  But ye shall receive power\, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you; and ye shall be witnesses unto me\, both in Jerusalem\, and in all Judaea\, and in Samaria\, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.  And when he had spoken these things\, while they beheld\, he was taken up\, and a cloud received him out of their sight.  And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven\, as he went up\, behold\, two men stood by them in white apparel; which also said\, Ye men of Galilee\, why stand ye gazing up into heaven?  This same Jesus\, which is taken up from you into heaven\, shall so come\, in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. \nTHE GOSPEL.   S. Mark 16. 14\nJESUS 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.  And he said unto them\, Go ye into all the world\, and preach the Gospel to every creature.  He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.  And these signs shall follow them that believe: In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 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.  So then after the Lord had spoken unto them\, he was received up into heaven\, and sat on the right hand of God.  And they went forth\, and preached every where\, the Lord working with them\, and confirming the word with signs following.

SUMMARY:Good Friday
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECTS.\nALMIGHTY God\, we beseech thee graciously to behold this thy family\, for whom our Lord Jesus Christ was contented to be betrayed\, and given up into the hands of wicked men\, and to suffer death upon the cross\, who now liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost\, ever one God\, world without end. Amen. \nALMIGHTY and everlasting God\, by whose Spirit the whole body of the Church is governed and sanctified; Receive our supplications and prayers\, which we offer before thee for all estates of men in thy holy Church\, that every member of the same\, in his vocation and ministry may truly and godly serve thee; through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen. \nO MERCIFUL God\, who hast made all men\, and hatest nothing that thou hast made\, nor wouldest the death of a sinner\, but rather that he should be converted and live; have mercy upon all Jews\, Turks\, Infidels\, and heretics\, and take from them all ignorance\, hardness of heart\, and contempt of thy word: and so fetch them home\, blessed Lord\, to thy flock\, that they may be saved among the remnant of the true Israelites\, and be made one fold under one shepherd\, Jesus Christ our Lord; who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit\, one God\, world without end. Amen. \nTHE EPISTLE.  Hebr. 10. 1\nTHE law having a shadow of good things to come\, and not the very image of the things\, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.  For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.  But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.  For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.  Wherefore when he cometh into the world\, he saith\, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not\, but a body hast thou prepared me: in burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.  Then said I\, Lo\, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me) to do thy will\, O God.  Above\, when he said\, Sacrifice and offering and burnt-offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not\, neither hadst pleasure therein\, (which are offered by the law;) then said he\, Lo\, I come to do thy will\, O God.  He taketh away the first\, that he may establish the second.  By the which will we are sanctified\, through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.  And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices\, which can never take away sins: but this Man\, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever\, sat down on the right hand of God; from henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.  For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.  Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before\, This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days\, saith the Lord\, I will put my laws into their hearts\, and in their minds will I write them; and their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.  Now where remission of these is\, there is no more offering for sin.  Having therefore\, brethren\, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus\, by a new and living way\, which he hath consecrated for us\, through the veil\, that is to say\, his flesh; and having an High Priest over the house of God; let us draw near with a true heart\, in full assurance of faith\, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience\, and our bodies washed with pure water.  Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering (for he is faithful that promised); and let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together\, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more\, as ye see the day approaching. \nTHE GOSPEL.  S. John 18. 33.\nTHEN Pilate entered into the judgement-hall again\, and called Jesus\, and said unto him\, Art thou the King of the Jews?  Jesus answered him\, Sayest thou this thing of thyself\, or did others tell it thee of me?  Pilate answered\, Am I a Jew?  Thine own nation and the chidf priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?  Jesus answered\, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world\, then would my servants fight\, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now my kingdom is not from hence.  Pilate therefore said unto him\, Art thou a king then?  Jesus answered\, Thou sayest that I am a king: to this end was I born and came into the world\, that I should witness to the truth: every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.  Pilate saith unto him\, What is truth?\nAnd when he had said this\, he went out again unto the Jews\, and saith unto them\, I find in him no fault at all; but ye have a custom\, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?  Then cried they all again\, saying\, Not this man\, bu Barabbas.  Now Barabbas was a robber.\nThen Pilate therefore took Jesus\, and scourged him.  And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns\, and put it on his head\, and they put on him a purple robe\, and said\, Hail\, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands.  Pilate therefore went forth again\, and saith unto them\, Behold\, I bring him forth to you\, that ye may know that I find no fault in him.  Then came Jesus forth\, wearing the crown of thorns\, and the purple robe.  And Pilate saith unto them\, Behold the man!  When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him\, they cried out\, saying\, Crucify him! crucify him!  Pilate saith unto them\, Take ye him\, and crucify him; for I find no fault in him.  The Jews answered him\, We have a law\, and by our law he ought to die\, because he made himself the Son of God.  When Pilate therefore heard that saying\, he was the more afraid; and went again into the judgement-hall\, and saith unto Jesus\, Whence art thou?  But Jesus gave him no answer.  Then saith Pilate unto him\, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee\, and have power to release thee?  Jesus answered\, Thou couldest have no power at all against me\, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.  And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out\, saying\, If thou let this man go\, thou art not Caesar’s friend: whosoever maketh himself a king\, speaketh against Caesar.  When Pilate therefore heard that saying\, he brought Jesus forth\, and sat down in the judgement-seat in a place that is called the Pavement\, but in the Hebrew\, Gabbatha.  And it was the preparation of the Passover\, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews\, Behold your King!  But they cried out\, Away with him! away with him! crucify him!  Pilate saith unto them\, Shall I crucify your King?  The chief priests answered\, We have no king but Caesar.  Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified.  And they took Jesus\, and led him away.\nAnd he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull\, which is called in the Hebrew\, Golgotha: where they crucified him\, and two other with him\, on either side one\, and Jesus in the midst.  And Pilate wrote a title\, and put it on the cross.  And the writing was\, JESUS OF NAZARETH\, THE KING OF THE JEWS.  This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city; and it was written in Hebrew\, and Greek\, and Latin.  Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate\, Write not\, The King of the Jews; but that he said\, I am King of the Jews.  Pilate answered\, What I have written I have written.  Then the soldiers\, when they had crucified Jesus\, took his garments\, and made four parts\, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam\, woven from the top throughout.  They said therefore among themselves\, Let us not rend it\, but cast lots for it\, whose it shall be: that the Scripture might be fulfilled\, which saith\,\nThey parted my raiment among them\,\nAnd for my vesture they did cast lots.\nThese things therefore the soldiers did.  Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother\, and his mother’s sister\, Mary the wife of Cleophas\, and Mary Magdalene.  When Jesus therefore saw his mother\, and the disciple standing by\, whom he loved\, he saith unto his mother\, Woman\, behold thy son!  Then saith he to the disciple\, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.  After this\, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished\, that the Scripture might be fulfilled\, saith\, I thirst.  Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a sponge with vinegar\, and put it upon hyssop\, and put it to his mouth.  When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar\, he said\, It is finished: and he bowed his head\, and gave up the ghost.\nThe Jews therefore\, because it was the preparation\, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath day\, (for that Sabbath day was an high day)\, besought Pilate that their legs might be broken\, and that they might be taken away.  Then came the soldiers\, and brake the legs of the first\, and of the other which was crucified with him.  But when they came to Jesus\, and saw that he was dead already\, they brake not his legs: but one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side\, and forthwith came thereout blood and water.  And he that saw it bare record\, and his record is true; and he knoweth that he saith true\, that ye might believe.  For these things were done\, that the Scripture should be fulfilled\, A bone of him shall not be broken.  And again another Scripture saith\, They shall look on him whom they pierced.

SUMMARY:Maundy Thursday
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECT. \nAlmighty and everlasting God\, who\, of thy tender love towards mankind\, hast sent thy Son\, our Saviour Jesus Christ\, to take upon him our flesh\, and to suffer death upon the cross\, that all mankind should follow the example of his great humility: Mercifully grant\, that we may both follow the example of his patience\, and also be made partakers of his resurrection; through the same Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen. \nO GOD\, who in a wonderful sacrament hast left unto us a memorial of thy passion: Grant us so to reverence the holy mysteries of thy Body and Blood\, that we may ever know within ourselves the fruit of thy redemption; who livest and reignest with the Father in the unity of the Holy Ghost\, one God\, world without end.  Amen. \nTHE EPISTLE.  1 Cor. 11. 17\nIN this that I declare unto you\, I praise you not; that ye come together not for the better\, but for the worse.  For first of all\, when ye come together in the church\, I hear that there be divisions among you\, and I partly believe it.  For there must be also heresies among you\, that they who are approved may be made manifest among you.  When ye come together therefore into one place\, this is not to eat the Lord’s supper: for in eating every one taketh before other his own supper; and one is hungry\, and another is drunken.  What\, have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God\, and shame them that have not?  What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this?  I praise you not.  For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto You\, That the Lord Jesus\, the same night in which he was betrayed\, took bread; and when he had given thanks\, he brake it\, and said\, Take\, eat; this is my body\, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.  After the same manner also he took the cup\, when he had supped\, saying\, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye\, as oft as ye drink it\, in remembrance of me.  For as often as ye eat this bread\, and drink this cup\, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.  Wherefore\, whosoever shall eat this bread\, and drink this cup of the Lord\, unworthily\, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.  But let a man examine himself\, and so let him eat of that bread\, and drink of that cup.  For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily eateth and drinketh damnation to himself\, not discerning the Lord’s body.  For this cause many are weak and sickly among you\, and many sleep.  For if we would judge ourselves\, we should not be judged.  But when we are judged\, we are chastened of the Lord\, that we should not be condemned with the world.  Wherefore\, my brethren\, when ye come together to eat\, tarry one for another.  And if any man hunger\, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation.  And the rest will I set in order when I come. \nTHE CONTINUATION OF THE PASSION OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST ACCORDING TO ST LUKE\nTHE GOSPEL. S. Luke 23. 1\nTHE whole multitude of them arose\, and led him unto Pilate.  And they began to accuse him\, saying\, We found this fellow perverting the nation\, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar\, saying\, That he himself is Christ a King.  And Pilate asked him\, saying\, Art thou the King of the Jews?  And he answered him\, and said\, Thou sayest it.  Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people\, I find no fault in this man.  And they were the more fierce\, saying\, He stirreth up the people\, teaching throughout all Jewry\, beginning from Galilee to this place.  When Pilate heard of Galilee\, he asked whether the man were a Galilaean.  And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod’s jurisdiction\, he sent him to Herod\, who himself was also at Jerusalem at that time.  And when Herod saw Jesus he was exceeding glad; for he was desirous to see him of a long season\, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.  Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.  And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.  And Herod with his men of war set him at nought\, and mocked him\, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe\, and sent him again to Pilate.  And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together; for before they were at enmity between themselves.  And Pilate\, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people\, said unto them\, Ye have brought this man unto me\, as one that perverteth the people: and behold\, I\, having examined him before you\, have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him: No\, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and lo\, nothing worthy of death is done unto him.  I will therefore chastise him\, and release him.  For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.  And they cried out all at once\, saying\, Away with this man\, and release unto us Barabbas: (who for a certain sedition made in the city\, and for murder\, was cast into prison.)  Pilate therefore\, willing to release Jesus\, spake again to them.  But they cried\, saying\, Crucify him\, crucify him.  And he said unto them the third time\, Why\, what evil hath he done?  I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him\, and let him go.  And they were instant with loud voices\, requiring that he might be crucified: and the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.  And Pilate gave sentence that-at it should be as they required.  And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into prison\, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to their will.  And as they led him away\, they laid hold upon one Simon a Cyrenian\, coming out of the country\, and on him they laid the cross\, that he might bear it after Jesus.  And there followed him a great company of people\, and of women\, which also bewailed and lamented him.  But Jesus\, turning unto them\, said\, Daughters of Jerusalem\, weep not for me\, but weep for yourselves\, and for your children.  For behold\, the days are coming\, in the which they shall say\, Blessed are the barren\, and the wombs that never bare\, and the paps which never gave suck.  Then shall they begin to say to the mountains\, Fail on us; and to the hills\, Cover us.  For if they do these things in a green tree\, what shall be alone in the dry?  And there were also two other\, malefactors\, led with him to be put to death.  And when they were come to the place which is called Calvary\, there they crucified him; and the malefactors\, one on the right hand\, and the other on the left.  Then said Jesus\, Father\, forgive them\, for they know not what they do.  And they parted his raiment\, and cast lots.  And the people stood beholding; and the rulers also with them derided him\, saying\, He saved others; let him save himself\, if he be Christ\, the chosen of God.  And the soldiers also mocked him\, coming to him\, and offering him vinegar\, and saying\, If thou be the King of the Jews\, save thyself.  And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek\, and Latin\, and Hebrew\, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.  And one of the malefactors\, which were hanged\, railed on him\, saying\, If thou be Christ\, save thyself and us.  But the other answering rebuked him\, saying\, Dost not thou fear God\, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?  And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this man hath done nothing amiss.  And he said unto Jesus\, Lord\, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.  And Jesus said unto him\, Verily I say unto thee\, To-day shalt thou be with me in paradise.  And it was about the sixth hour: and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.  And the sun was darkened\, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.  And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice\, he said\, Father\, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus\, he gave up the ghost.  Now when the centurion saw what was done\, he glorified God\, saying\, Certainly this was a righteous man.  And all the people that came together to that sight\, beholding the things that were done\, smote their breasts and returned.  And all his acquaintance\, and the women that followed him from Galilee\, stood afar off\, beholding these things.

SUMMARY:Feast of the Incarnation
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECT. \nAlmighty God\, who hast given us thy only-begotten Son to take our nature upon him\, and as at this time to be born of a pure Virgin: Grant that we being regenerate\, and made thy children by adoption and grace\, may daily be renewed by thy Holy Spirit; through the same our Lord Jesus Christ\, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the same Spirit\, ever one God\, world without end.  Amen. \nTHE EPISTLE.  Hebr. 1. 1\nGOD\, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets\, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son\, whom he hath appointed heir of all things\, by whom also he made the worlds; who being the brightness of his glory\, and the express image of his person\, and upholding all things by the word of his power\, when he had by himself purged our sins\, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; being made so much better than the angels\, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.  For unto which of the angels said he at any time\, Thou art my Son\, this day have I begotten thee?  And again\, I will be to him a Father\, and he shall be to me a Son?  And again\, when he bringeth in the first-begotten into the world\, he saith\, And let all the angels of God worship him.  And of the angels he saith\, Who maketh his angels spirits\, and his ministers a flame of fire.  But unto the Son he saith\, Thy throne\, O God\, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom: Thou hast loved righteousness\, and hated iniquity; therefore God\, even thy God\, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.  And again he saith\, Thou\, Lord\, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: they shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment; and as a vesture shalt thou fold them up\, and they shall be changed; but thou art the same\, and thy years shall not fail. \nTHE GOSPEL.  S. John 1. 1\nIN the beginning was the Word\, and the Word was with God\, and the Word was God.  The same was in the beginning with God.  All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.  In him was life; and the life was the light of men.  And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.  There was a man sent from God\, whose name was John.  The same came for a witness\, to bear witness of the light\, that all men through him might believe.  He was not that light\, but was sent to bear witness of that light.  That was the true light\, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.  He was in the world\, and the world was made by him\, and the world knew him not.  He came unto his own\, and his own received him not.  But as many as received him\, to them gave he power to become the sons of God\, even to them that believe on his Name: which were born\, not of blood\, nor of the will of the flesh\, nor of the will of man\, but of God.  And the Word was made flesh\, and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory\, the glory as of the only-begotten of the Father) full of grace and truth.

SUMMARY:Feast of the Nativity of John Baptist
DESCRIPTION:THE COLLECT.   \nALMIGHTY God\, by whose providence thy servant John Baptist was wonderfully born\, and sent to prepare the way of thy Son our Saviour\, by preaching of repentance: Make us so to follow his doctrine and holy life\, that we may truly repent according to his preaching\, and after his example constantly speak the truth\, boldly rebuke vice\, and patiently suffer for the truth’s sake; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.\n\n\nTHE LESSON FOR THE EPISTLE.   Isaiah 40. 1.\n\nCOMFORT ye\, comfort ye my people\, saith your God. Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem\, and cry unto her\, that her warfare is accomplished\, that her iniquity is pardoned; for she hath received of the LORD’S hand double for all her sins. The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness\, Prepare ye the way of the LORD\, make straight in the desert a high-way for our God. Every valley shall be exalted\, and every mountain and hill shall be made low\, and the crooked shall be made straight\, and the rough places plain. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed\, and it all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it. The voice said\, Cry. And he said\, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass\, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field. The grass withereth\, the flower fadeth\, because the Spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass. The grass withereth\, the flower fadeth; but the word of our God shall stand for ever. O Zion\, that bringest good tidings\, get thee up into the high mountain: O Jerusalem\, that bringest good tidings\, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up\, be not afraid: say unto the cities of Judah\, Behold your God. Behold\, the Lord GOD will come with strong hand\, and his arm shall rule for him: behold\, his reward is with him\, and his work before him. He shall feed his flock like a shepherd; he shall gather the lambs with his arm\, and carry them in his bosom\, and shall gently lead those that are with young. \nTHE GOSPEL.    St Luke 1. 57. \nELIZABETH’S full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son. And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had showed great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her. And it came to pass\, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias\, after the name of his father. And his mother answered and said\, Not so; but he shall be called John. And they said unto her\, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name. And they made signs to his father\, how he would have him called. And he asked for a writing-table\, and wrote\, saying\, His name is John. And they marvelled all. And his mouth was opened immediately\, and his tongue loosed\, and he spake\, and praised God. And fear came on all that dwelt round about them; and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill-country of Judaea. And all they that had heard them laid them up in their hearts\, saying\, What manner of child shall this be? And the hand of the Lord was with him. And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Spirit\, and prophesied\, saying\,\n \nBlessed be the Lord God of Israel:\nFor he hath visited and redeemed his people\,\nAnd hath raised up an horn of salvation for us\nIn the house of his servant David;\nAs he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets\,\nWhich have been since the world began;\nThat we should be saved from our enemies\,\nAnd from the hand of all that hate us;\nTo perform the mercy promised to our fathers\,\nAnd to remember his holy covenant;\nThe oath which he sware to our father Abraham\,\nThat he would grant unto us\, that we\, being delivered out of the hands of our enemies\,\nMight serve him without fear\,\nIn holiness and righteousness before him all the days of our life.\nAnd thou\, child\, shalt be called the Prophet of the Highest:\nFor thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;\nTo give knowledge of salvation unto his people\,\nBy the remission of their sins\,\nThrough the tender mercy of our God\,\nWhereby the day-spring from on high hath visited us;\nTo give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death;\nTo guide our feet into the way of peace.\n \nAnd the child grew\, and waxed strong in spirit; and was in the deserts till the day of his showing unto Israel.
