Introduction to the First Reading
Jeremiah has been placed under house arrest when, during a lull in the fighting against the Babylonians, he has been suspected of desertion as he went to leave Jerusalem. His acceptance of his right and obligation to buy a field now in occupied territory shows that Judah will, one day, be free again.
A Reading from the Book of Jeremiah 32:1-3A, 6-15
The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord in the tenth year of King Zedekiah of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar. At that time the army of the king of Babylon was besieging Jerusalem, and the prophet Jeremiah was confined in the court of the guard that was in the palace of the king of Judah, where King Zedekiah of Judah had confined him. Jeremiah said, The word of the Lord came to me: Hanamel son of your uncle Shallum is going to come to you and say, "Buy my field that is at Anathoth, for the right of redemption by purchase is yours." Then my cousin Hanamel came to me in the court of the guard, in accordance with the word of the Lord, and said to me, "Buy my field that is at Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, for the right of possession and redemption is yours; buy it for yourself." Then I knew that this was the word of the Lord. And I bought the field at Anathoth from my cousin Hanamel, and weighed out the money to him, seventeen shekels of silver. I signed the deed, sealed it, got witnesses, and weighed the money on scales. Then I took the sealed deed of purchase, containing the terms and conditions, and the open copy; and I gave the deed of purchase to Baruch son of Neriah son of Mahseiah, in the presence of my cousin Hanamel, in the presence of the witnesses who signed the deed of purchase, and in the presence of all the Judeans who were sitting in the court of the guard. In their presence I charged Baruch, saying, Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Take these deeds, both this sealed deed of purchase and this open deed, and put them in an earthenware jar, in order that they may last for a long time. For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Houses and fields and vineyards shall again be bought in this land.

Introduction à la Deuxième Lecture
Nous arrivons à la dernière partie du livre. L'auteur vient d'accuser les enseignants qui déforment et embellissent la véritable foi de considérer l'enseignement de la foi comme un moyen de gagner plus que nécessaire. Il affirme maintenant qu'enseigner et vivre la vraie foi est spirituellement profitable, qu'il en découle suffisamment pour vivre et que cela apporte le contentement.
Lecture Tirée de la Première Lettre de Paul à Timothée, 1 Timothée 6:6-19
Nous n'avons rien apporté dans le monde, et nous ne pouvons rien en emporter ; si nous avons de quoi manger et de quoi nous vêtir, nous devons nous en contenter. Mais ceux qui veulent s'enrichir tombent dans la tentation et se piègent dans une multitude de désirs insensés et nuisibles qui plongent les hommes dans la ruine et la destruction. Car l'amour de l'argent est la racine de tous les maux, et dans leur désir d'être riches, certains se sont éloignés de la foi et se sont infligé bien des souffrances. Mais toi, homme de Dieu, fuis tout cela ; recherche la justice, la piété, la foi, l'amour, la persévérance, la douceur. Combats le bon combat de la foi, saisis la vie éternelle, à laquelle tu as été appelé et pour laquelle tu as fait une belle confession devant de nombreux témoins. En présence de Dieu, qui donne la vie à toutes choses, et de Jésus-Christ, qui a rendu un beau témoignage devant Ponce Pilate, je t'ordonne de garder le commandement sans tache ni reproche jusqu'à la manifestation de notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ, qu'il réalisera au moment opportun, lui qui est le bienheureux et unique Souverain, le Roi des rois et le Seigneur des seigneurs. C'est lui seul qui possède l'immortalité et qui habite une lumière inaccessible, que personne n'a jamais vu ni ne peut voir ; à lui soient l'honneur et la domination éternelle. Amen. Quant à ceux qui sont riches dans le monde actuel, recommande-leur de ne pas être orgueilleux, ni de mettre leur espérance dans la richesse incertaine, mais plutôt en Dieu qui nous donne tout en abondance pour que nous en jouissions. Qu'ils fassent le bien, qu'ils soient riches en bonnes œuvres, généreux et prêts à partager, amassant ainsi pour eux-mêmes un trésor qui leur servira de base pour l'avenir, afin qu'ils puissent saisir la vie qui est vraiment la vie.
