Moses then wrote down all to this creation, he entered once for all into the the words of the LORD and, rising early the next day, he sanctuary, not with the blood of goats and calves but erected at the foot of the mountain an altar and twelve with his own blood, thus obtaining eternal pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel. Then, having sent redemption. For if the blood of goats and bulls and certain young men of the Israelites to offer holocausts the sprinkling of a heifer's ashes can sanctify those and sacrifice young bulls as peace offerings to the LORD, who are defiled so that their flesh is cleansed, how Moses took half of the blood and put it in large bowls; the much more will the blood of Christ, who through the other half he splashed on the altar.

The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ. SACRIFICE Congratulations to the Today the Church focuses on the Eucharist. Confirmation Class of 2021 Today’s readings remind us how connected to ancient May God Bless You! blood sacrifices we are when offering our unbloody sacrifice. The reading from Exodus describes a solemn ritual designed so the Israelites would never forget their covenant with God. The reading from the Letter to the Hebrews turns us from those ancient animal sacrifices, the first efforts to worship the living God. Our sacrifice is the body and blood of the Son of God. Because of Christ we have a new covenant. The Gospel from Mark retells the establishment of that covenant, the familiar story of the Last Supper. Juxtaposed with the story of animal sacrifice as it is here, we are challenged to listen with new attention, to remember the great price paid for our salvation. Jesus gave his body and every drop of his blood for us. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
