Luke 20:1-8

Wednesday of the 28th week.

The Gospel of Luke, conceived 100

The Lord said this parable: A certain man planted a vineyard and gave it to the tenants, and went away for a long time; and in due time he sent a servant to the tenants to give him fruit from the vineyard; but the tenants, having nailed him, sent him away empty-handed. And he sent another servant; but they killed him and cursed him, and sent him away empty-handed. And he sent a third; but they wounded him and drove him out. Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps, when they see him, they will be ashamed. But when the tenants saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, "This is the heir; Come, let us kill him, and his inheritance shall be ours. And they brought him out of the vineyard and killed him. What will the lord of the vineyard do to them? He will come and destroy those tenants, and give the vineyard to others. And those who heard it said, Let it not be! But he looked at them, and said, What is the meaning of this writing, that the stone which the builders rejected became the head of the corner? Whoever falls on that stone will be broken, and whoever it falls on will be crushed.

Luke 20:9-18

Thursday, 28th week.

The Gospel of Luke, conceived 101

In those days the chief priests and scribes sought to lay hands on Jesus, but they were afraid of the people, for they understood that He had spoken this parable about them. And watching Him, they sent evil men, who, pretending to be pious, would catch Him in some word, in order to deliver Him up to the rulers and the power of the ruler. And they asked Him, "Teacher! we know that Thou speakest truthfully and teacheth, and that Thou dost not look at Thy face, but that Thou dost truly teach the way of God; Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Caesar, or not? And he, perceiving their wickedness, said unto them, Why do ye tempt me? Show Me the denarius: whose image and inscription are on it? And they answered, Caesar's. He said to them, "Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." And they could not catch Him in His word before the people, and being amazed at His answer, they were silent.

Luke 20:19–26

Пятница 28 седмицы.

Евангелие от Луки, зачало 102

В те дни пришли к Иисусу некоторые из саддукеев, отвергающих воскресение, и спросили Его: Учитель! Моисей написал нам, что если у кого умрет брат, имевший жену, и умрет бездетным, то брат его должен взять его жену и восставить семя брату своему.

А что мертвые воскреснут, и Моисей показал при купине, когда назвал Господа Богом Авраама и Богом Исаака и Богом Иакова. Бог же не есть Бог мертвых, но живых, ибо у Него все живы. На это некоторые из книжников сказали: Учитель! Ты хорошо сказал. И уже не смели спрашивать Его ни о чем. Он же сказал им: как говорят, что Христос есть Сын Давидов, а сам Давид говорит в книге псалмов: сказал Господь Господу моему: седи одесную Меня, доколе положу врагов Твоих в подножие ног Твоих? Итак, Давид Господом называет Его; как же Он Сын ему?
