THIRD SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME C Lectionary #69
God's people are called not only to believe but also to put that faith into practice. Both the Torah and Jesus' announcement of his mission remind us that peace and justice and healing are at the core of that practical living of the faith.
Nehemiah 8:2-4a, 5-6, 8-10. The “book of the Law” read to the people after the return from Exile in the ruins of Jerusalem was probably the Book of Deuteronomy, a collection of legislation made later than the collection in Leviticus. Ezra holds up the scroll as proof that he is reading from the text and is not making things up. The people rejoice that this summary of the Torah unites them to their ancient faith and way of life.
Psalm of the Day: Ps (18) 19. This praise of the Torah comes from the second half of the psalm.

1 Corinthians 12:12-30. Building on his unity in diversity theme (see last Sunday's second reading), Paul introduces the metaphor of the body to describe how Christ and the Church work.
Luke 1:1-4; 4:14 -21. We are introduced this Sunday to Luke's version of the Gospel. Luke will interpret the Christian message for us through the rest of this year. This passage combine's the opening verses with a description of Jesus' announcement of his ministry in the synagogue at Nazareth: “Today this Scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing.”
