1st Reading – Acts 11:21B-26; 13:1-3

^21B In those days a great number who believed turned to the Lord.

²² The news about them reached the ears of the Church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to go to Antioch.

²³ When he arrived and saw the grace of God, he rejoiced and encouraged them all to remain faithful to the Lord in firmness of heart,

²⁴ for he was a good man, filled with the Holy Spirit and faith. And a large number of people was added to the Lord.

²⁵ Then he went to Tarsus to look for Saul,

²⁶ and when he had found him he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the Church and taught a large number of people, and it was in Antioch that the disciples were first called Christians.

¹ Now there were in the Church at Antioch prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Symeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen who was a close friend of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

² While they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”

³ Then, completing their fasting and prayer, they laid hands on them and sent them off.

Gospel – Matthew 5:27-32

Jesus said to his disciples:
²⁷ “You have heard that it was said, You shall not commit adultery.

²⁸ But I say to you, everyone who looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

²⁹ If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one of your members than to have your whole body thrown into Gehenna.

³⁰ And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one of your members than to have your whole body go into Gehenna.

³¹ “It was also said, Whoever divorces his wife must give her a bill of divorce.

³² But I say to you, whoever divorces his wife (unless the marriage is unlawful) causes her to commit adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.”
