Church publishes Sunday Gospel
First source report
The Archdiocese of Malta published the readings for the twenty-ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time.
The Gospel reading from Matthew 22:15-21 describes a confrontation where Pharisees and Herodians ask Jesus if it is lawful to pay the census tax to Caesar. After examining a Roman coin, Jesus instructs them to give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God.
The full liturgy includes a first reading from Isaiah 45:1, 4-6, a second reading from 1 Thessalonians 1:1-5b, and Psalm 95 as the responsorial reading.
