You are exactly right about starting at 11:1. That is why, in the interests of unpacking 16-30, I started at 11:1 and the question and answer session between JB (via his disciples) & Jesus.<br /><br />blessingshogsternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381857003974790247.post-43461571130607613092011-07-02T12:12:55.937+12:002011-07-02T12:12:55.937+12:00Good on you, hogster, for reading more scripture p...Good on you, hogster, for reading more scripture publicly, but don't assume that by including those particular verses you have solved the issue that you go on to describe so picturesquely. <br /><br />To follow your logic, you will have needed the whole community to have been there last Sunday and concluded at Matt 10:42; then this Sunday you should start, not at verse 16 as you are going to, you should start at Matt 11:1. Only then are you providing some appropriate context for your vv 16ff text. <br /><br />Do let us know, week by week, how your principle is working out in practice.<br /><br />[and I'm assuming you are reading the other readings and the psalm also - and applying your principle in each case; whole psalm, complete Genesis reading...]<br /><br />Blessings<br /><br />Boscoliturgyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11822769747947139669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381857003974790247.post-87932964205783956462011-07-01T18:39:09.915+12:002011-07-01T18:39:09.915+12:00I for one will be reading the lectionary vs requir...I for one will be reading the lectionary vs required of the day as well as those cut out vs 20-24.<br /><br />Hard to make sence of what _______ if a key ___________ passage in _________the ______ out.hogstersnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381857003974790247.post-80544814667530292592011-06-29T07:46:23.893+12:002011-06-29T07:46:23.893+12:00I am always in your debt, Bosco, for a deeper unde...I am always in your debt, Bosco, for a deeper understanding of the lectionary(s)!<br /><br />I had noticed that in NZPB it was 11:25-30, but had thought that reflected an older version of RCL, so what is printed in the NZL 2011 is a true and correct version etc.<br /><br />So, agreed, an addition has occurred.Peter Carrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09535218286799156659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381857003974790247.post-31098105807081875022011-06-29T07:42:25.979+12:002011-06-29T07:42:25.979+12:00Thanks for this, Peter, I have added a link to her...Thanks for this, Peter, I have added a link to here from<br />http://www.liturgy.co.nz/blog/week-starting-july-3/6275<br /><br />As to your question: why has 11:20-24 been omitted? (an interesting example of how the particular question affects the answer…) In fact it wasn’t 11:20-24 that was <i>omitted</i>. The original reading was 11:25-30 (see NZPB p.713); 11:16-19 has been <i>added</i>! Certainly, I see absolutely no reason why a community couldn’t add 11:20-24 (assuming, of course that they already read all three readings and pray the psalm); it could be in the pew sheet; people could even be encouraged to read it at home (I am regularly encouraging members of my community to read, for example, a whole gospel through from start to finish). There is certainly no case of “difficult passage, better leave it out” as this parallel in Luke is read on this same Sunday two years from now. One may criticise the RCL decision to tend to not repeat parallel passages – but there are always gains and losses in lectionary decisions.<br /><br />Blessings<br /><br />Boscoliturgyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11822769747947139669noreply@blogger.com
