Subject: alternative scripture lesson for tomorrow’s lectionary?
BHrethren,
I know this is rather late in the asking, but any ideas for an alternative in the OT lesson for tomorrow? The BCP is using Ecclesiasticus.

The Revised Common Lectionary has Genesis 2:15–17; 3:1–7.

Thanks, Joel. Is the remainder of the lectionary the same as BCP? (Tomorrow is from Matthew 5 and 1 Cor 3.)

Which BCP are you using, btw?
The CofE 1662 BCP with the 1922 Revised Table of Lessons has Sirach, but gives Genesis 18 as an alternate. The US 1928 with the 1945 Revised Table also has Sirach, but gives Isaiah 58 as an alternative.

Heh. I don’t know. It says that it is “according to the use of the Episcopal Church,” and the edition was put together in 1990. It is published by Oxford University Press, and has a certificate inside:
“I certify that this edtion of The Book of Common Prayer has been compared with a certified copy of the Standard Book, as the Canon directs, and that it conforms thereto.” — Charles Mortimer Guilbert, Custodian of the Standard Book of Common Prayer, February, 1990

Actually, now that I look at this again, I think I will go with the Psalm reading — Psalm 71 fits pretty well with my sermon.
And yes, as you can see, I’m not following the entire lectionary. I’ve been using the OT and Epistles lessons, and lately I have been using the Gospels lessons for the law. (That’s obviously not always possible, but for the Sermon on the Mount it works.)

And the current US BCP (1979) has basically the same passage from Genesis 2 as the RCL:
Genesis 2:4b–9, 15–17, 25–3:7.

Tim,
I find http://www.textweek.com/ a very helpful resource. FWIW.

a word from the godfather
“I just thought the juxtaposition of the Keller quotes with Jordan’s/Leithart’s was interesting and worthy of discussion — especially since some sort of synthesis seems likely. It’s been at the back of my mind as a point for discussion for years.” — Rich Lusk
“Another one of my favorite guys has also taken down some of his stuff and has retired from the blogosphere because it is so, you know, mean. Translated from the FV, that means that they’ve been uncovered and they need to lie low until the dust settles and institutional inertia can take effect. Hiding what you really are behind protestations that others are breaking the 9th? How precious is that? Evidently, the 9th means exactly what they say it means — nothing more and nothing less. Truth hurts. Maybe if the FV [men] worried more about the true gospel and less about the color of their gowns, sashes and stoles, we wouldn’t be where we are now.” — Eileen
“Generally one doesn’t dog the Westminster Assembly as ‘weak’ and get along well in Presby circles. . . . Now if we could just get everybody to read the latest issue of Credenda.” — DP Cassidy

book review
“Well, the inevitable finally happened with content from the 2005 Biblical Horizons list recently made public on an anonymous Yahoo blog. I don’t know how much material from Biblical Horizons will make its way to the web, but what has come out thus far has proven embarrassing to some, including a dear friend within my own church.” — David Bayly
“Yet, not everyone has seen the FV for what it is. Some FV advocates have protested that there is no difference between what they promote and Westminsterian Calvinism. Others have asserted, absurdly, that there is no ‘FV movement.’ The BH list shows those things to be false, and, in that, it is useful. One would hope that TE’s Wilkins, Meyers and Leithart made these emails available to the various committees charged with examining their views.” — Ken Pierce

“Oh, it’s true enough: We depart from the whole Reformation tradition at certain pretty basic points. It’s no good pretending otherwise. I think the PCA is perfectly within its rights to say no to all BH types. We are NOT traditional presbyterians. The PCA suffers us within itself, but we are poison to traditional presbyterianism.” — James B. Jordan
