Book of Common Prayer
The Time of The Exodus
23 By faith Moses, having been born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw the child was beautiful and did not fear the edict of the king. 24 By faith Moses, having become great[a], refused to be called son of Pharaoh’s daughter, 25 having chosen rather to be mistreated-with the people of God than to be having a temporary enjoyment of sin, 26 having regarded the reproach of [b] the Christ to be greater riches than the treasures of Egypt. For he was looking-away[c] to the reward. 27 By faith he left Egypt, not having feared the fury of the king. For he persevered[d] as seeing[e] the invisible One. 28 By faith he has performed the Passover[f] and the sprinkling of the blood in order that the one destroying the firstborns might not touch them. 29 By faith they crossed[g] the Red Sea as through dry land— of which having taken the test[h], the Egyptians were swallowed-up. 30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell, having been encircled for seven days. 31 By faith Rahab the prostitute did not perish-with the ones having disobeyed, having welcomed the spies with peace.
My Flesh Is True Food; My Blood Is True Drink. Partake And Live Forever
52 Then the Jews were fighting with one another, saying, “How can this One give us His flesh to eat?” 53 So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless[a] you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you do not have life in yourselves. 54 The one eating My flesh and drinking My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. 55 For My flesh is true[b] food, and My blood is true drink. 56 The one eating My flesh and drinking My blood abides in Me, and I in him. 57 Just as the living Father sent Me forth, and I live because of the Father, indeed the one eating Me— that one also will live because of Me. 58 This is the bread having come down from heaven; not as the manna the fathers ate and died. The one eating this bread will live forever”. 59 He said these things in a synagogue while teaching in Capernaum.
