This week's Collect and Propers shows the uniquely Reformation character of Cranmer's BCP. The Collect of the Day was changed in an important way to shift the emphasis towards a Protestant understanding of the mediatorial work of Christ. The Epistle was also changed, and this brings a new unity to the week. Galatians 6:11-18 shows how the finished work of Christ allows us to be free from the fear of man and the curse of the law. Matthew 6:24-34 teaches us to find our peace of mind in God. The two readings from Jermiah reveal a case of righteous Gentiles and another evidence of Israel's hardening.
