This lectionary provides two patterns for the Old Testament reading Proper 6 Genesis 18:1-15, Romans 5:1-8 during the Season after Pentecost, beginning with Proper 4. In one Closest to (21:1-7) Matthew 9:35—10:8,(9-23) pattern, the Old Testament and Gospel readings are closely related each June 15 Ps. 116:1,10-17 Sunday; in the other, the Old Testament is read in semi-continuous or Exodus 19:2-8a fashion throughout the season, and the readings are not paired with each Ps. 100 Sunday Gospel. Congregations may choose each year whether to use the semi-continuous Old Testament readings or the readings that are related Proper 7 Genesis 21:8-21 Romans 6:1b-11 to the Gospel, using as well the psalm associated with their choice of Closest to Ps. 86:1-10,16-17 Matthew 10:24-39 Old Testament reading. They should remain with that pattern for the June 22 or Jeremiah 20:7-13 entire lectionary year and may make a different choice in another year.
