Daily Mass Readings for November 4 2023, Saturday of the Thirtieth Week in Ordinary Time
1st Reading – Romans 11:1-2A, 11-12, 25-29
Brothers and sisters:
1 I, therefore, ask: Has God driven away his people? Let it not be so! For I, too, am an Israelite of the offspring of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.
2A God has not driven away his people, whom he foreknew. And do you not know what Scripture says in Elijah, how he calls upon God against Israel?
11 Therefore, I say: Have they stumbled in such a way that they should fall? Let it not be so! Instead, by their offense, salvation is with the Gentiles, so that they may be a rival to them.
12 Now if their offense is the riches of the world, and if their diminution is the riches of the Gentiles, how much more is their fullness?
25 For I do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, of this mystery (lest you seem wise only to yourselves) that a certain blindness has occurred in Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has arrived.
26 And in this way, all of Israel may be saved, just as it was written: “From Zion shall arrive he who delivers, and he shall turn impiety away from Jacob.
27 And this will be my covenant for them, when I will take away their sins.”
28 Certainly, according to the Gospel, they are enemies for your sake. But according to the election, they are most beloved for the sake of the fathers.
29 For the gifts and the call of God are without regret.
Responsorial Psalm – Psalms 94:12-13A, 14-15, 17-18
R. (14a) The Lord will not abandon his people.
12 Blessed the man whom you instruct, O LORD,
whom by your law you teach,
13A Giving him rest from evil days.
R. The Lord will not abandon his people.
14 For the LORD will not cast off his people,
nor abandon his inheritance;
15 But judgment shall again be with justice,
and all the upright of heart shall follow it.
R. The Lord will not abandon his people.
17 Were not the LORD my help,
my soul would soon dwell in the silent grave.
18 When I say, “My foot is slipping,”
your mercy, O LORD, sustains me.
R. The Lord will not abandon his people.
Alleluia – Matthew 11:29AB
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
29AB Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,
For I am meek and humble of heart.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Gospel – Luke 14:1, 7-11
1 On a sabbath Jesus went to dine at the home of one of the leading Pharisees, and the people there were observing him carefully.
7 He told a parable to those who had been invited, noticing how they were choosing the places of honor at the table.
8 “When you are invited by someone to a wedding banquet, do not recline at table in the place of honor. A more distinguished guest than you may have been invited by him,
9 and the host who invited both of you may approach you and say, ‘Give your place to this man,’ and then you would proceed with embarrassment to take the lowest place.
10 Rather, when you are invited, go and take the lowest place so that when the host comes to you he may say, ‘My friend, move up to a higher position.’
Then you will enjoy the esteem of your companions at the table.
11 For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”
