Saturday, July 20, 2013 Saturday Memorial of the Blessed Virgin Mary First Reading:Exodus 12:37-42 Psalm: Psalm 136:1, 23-24, 10-15 Gospel: Matthew 12:14-21 For in the name of Christ is implied, He that anoints, He that is anointed, and the unction itself with which He is anointed. And it is the Father who anoints, but the Son who is anointed by the Spirit, who is the unction, as the Word declares by Isaiah, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He hath anointed me,"--pointing out both the anointing Father, the anointed Son, and the unction, which is the Spirit. -- St. Irenaeus, Adversus haereses
