Aug 24, 2023. Gospel: Luke 6:12-19. St Bartholomew.
And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and he passed the whole night in the prayer of God.
Factum est autem in illis diebus, exiit in montem orare, et erat pernoctans in oratione Dei.
13 And when day was come, he called unto him his disciples; and he chose twelve of them (whom also he named apostles).
Et cum dies factus esset, vocavit discipulos suos : et elegit duodecim ex ipsis ( quos et apostolos nominavit) :
14 Simon, whom he surnamed Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
Simonem, quem cognominavit Petrum, et Andream fratrem ejus, Jacobum, et Joannem, Philippum, et Bartholomaeum,
15 Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alpheus, and Simon who is called Zelotes,
Matthaeum, et Thomam, Jacobum Alphaei, et Simonem, qui vocatur Zelotes,
16 And Jude, the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot, who was the traitor.
et Judam Jacobi, et Judam Iscariotem, qui fuit proditor.
17 And coming down with them, he stood in a plain place, and the company of his disciples, and a very great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast both of Tyre and Sidon,
Et descendens cum illis, stetit in loco campestri, et turba discipulorum ejus, et multitudo copiosa plebis ab omni Judaea, et Jerusalem, et maritima, et Tyri, et Sidonis,
18 Who were come to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases. And they that were troubled with unclean spirits, were cured.
qui venerant ut audirent eum, et sanarentur a languoribus suis. Et qui vexabantur a spiritibus immundis, curabantur.
19 And all the multitude sought to touch him, for virtue went out from him, and healed all.
Et omnis turba quaerebat eum tangere : quia virtus de illo exibat, et sanabat omnes.
St Bartholomew the Apostle, whose name means: son of Tholomy, is believed to be the same as Nathaniel whom the Master praised as the Israelite in whom there was no guile. He preached the faith in India and Armenia. He was flayed alive and beheaded A.D.71.
