Lectionary Images
Isaiah 25: 6-10 (Roman Lectionary)
Isaiah 25: 1-9
(Revised Common & Episcopal Lectionaries)
On this mountain
the Lord of Hosts
will provide for all people
a banquet of aromatic food
and vintage wine.
Matthew 22: 1-14
(Roman, Revised Common & Episcopal Lectionaries)
The King said:
“The banquet is ready
but the guests are unworthy.
Go out to the roadside
and invite anyone you come upon.”
And the servants
went to the byroads,
gathering people of all kind
along the way.
And so they filled the wedding hall
with guests.
