Lessons 1-3 from the Divine Office for Saturday of the First Week of October: I Machabees 3:42-60 And Judas and his brethren saw that evils were multiplied, and that the armies approached to their borders: and they knew the orders the king had given to destroy the people and utterly abolish them. And they said every man to his neighbour: Let us raise up the low condition of our people, and let us fight for our people, and our sanctuary. And the assembly was gathered that they might be ready for battle: and that they might pray, and ask mercy and compassion. Now Jerusalem was not inhabited, but was like a desert: there was none of her children that went in or out: and the sanctuary was trodden down: and the children of strangers were in the castle, there was the habitation of the Gentiles: and joy was taken away from Jacob, and the pipe and harp ceased there.
