Daily Mass Reading        The Rule of Benedict


August 2, 2008
Seventeenth Week of Ordinary Time
Jeremiah 26:11-16, 24; Ps. 69:15-16, 30-31, 33-34; Matthew 14:1-12

     Herod recognized John’s goodness and the special powers he seemed to have, but Herod’s own power before his peers was being threatened by his daughter’s request for John’s head, and so John had to go!  What lesson is here for us?
