This week’s Gospel: 2nd Sunday in Ordonary Time

This week’s Gospel as in the Codex Fuldensis Gospel: 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time
Using data publicly available from:
http://www.catholic-ew.org.uk/liturgy/Calendar/2008/Jan08.html
and The Sunday Missal to cross-check
This Week's Gospel: John 1: 29 - 34.
(20th-January-2008) 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year A

Look, there is the lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world.
This is a difficult reading for most of the first three verses are omitted, and what is not omitted of verse 29 is tacked on to the end of verse 36. Verses 32 – 34 have already been listed last week, so it seems appropriate to start here at verse 35.
That though is where the reading for Year B starts, being verses 35 – 42.
That reading corresponds then with the caput following.

XVI. Ubi duo discipuli Iohannis secuti sunt Ihesum.
(Where two of John's disciples followed Jesus.)

Another day again John stood and two of his disciples, and beholding Jesus walking, he saith: Behold the Lamb of God! Behold him who taketh away the sin of the world!

And the two disciples heard him speak: and they followed Jesus. And Jesus turning and seeing them following him, saith to them: What seek you? They said to him: Rabbi (which is to say, being interpreted, Master), where dwellest thou? He saith to them: Come and see. They came and saw where he abode: and they stayed with him that day. Now it was about the tenth hour.

And Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who had heard from John and followed him.

He findeth first his brother Simon and saith to him: We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ, and he brought him to Jesus. And Jesus looking upon him, said: Thou art Simon the son of Jona. Thou art called Cephas, which is interpreted Peter.
