Morning:
What profit is there of circumcision?
Much every way. Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and take
away the foreskins of your heart. If then their uncircumcised
hearts be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of
their iniquity: then will I remember my covenant with Jacob, and
also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham
will I remember.
Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth
of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers. In
whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without
hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the
circumcision of Christ. You, being dead in your sins and the
uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with
him, having forgiven you all trespasses.
Put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which
is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; and be renewed in
the spirit of your mind; and put on the new man, which
after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

Evening:
The veil of the temple was rent in twain
from the top to the bottom.
The Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took
bread: and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said,
Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in
remembrance of me. The bread that I will give is my flesh,
which I will give for the life of the world.
Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his
blood, ye have no life in you. Whoso eateth my flesh, and
drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at
the last day. He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my
blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him. As the living Father hath
sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he
shall live by me. When Jesus knew in himself that his
disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend
you? What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where
he was before? It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh
profiteth nothing.
A new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us,
through the veil, that is to say, his flesh. .Let us draw
near.
