Yep, you're exactly right. Can't believe I got that wrong. I *knew* that.... (I'm really generally not pedantic about things, so I guess it's not surprising I'd muck it up :D )
All of this came about because both my son and I are reading at church tomorrow, albeit at different services. He's reading the Gospel at the children's service, and I'm reading the OT selection at the traditional service. (Although, Baruch is Apocryphal -- I've never been exactly sure what the Episcopalian position on the apocryphal books are. Since I was raised Roman Catholic I have no problem as simply thinking of it as part of the OT. My in-laws, good Southern Baptists, would have fits over it.) Sort of a banner church day in my household. He is reading for the bishop's visit because he always reads the first Sunday of the month, and I am reading for the bishop's visit because.... well, I'm not sure exactly why. I just recently was put back on the lector schedule. My theory is that someone in the church office likes me.
And I also wrote this entry because I keep seeing references to "the Book of Revelations" and it annoys me.
D'oh!
