☆ Gospel:Mark 7:31-37

And again he went out from Tyre, and came through Sidon to the sea of Galilee, through the country of Decapolis.

And they came to him with one who had no power of hearing and had trouble in talking; and they made a request to him to put his hands on him.

And he took him on one side from the people privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he put water from his mouth on the man's tongue with his finger;

And looking up to heaven, he took a deep breath, and said to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be open.

And his ears became open, and the band of his tongue was made loose, and his words became clear.

And he gave them orders not to give news of it to anyone; but the more he made this request, so much the more they made it public.

And they were overcome with wonder, saying, He has done all things well: he even gives back the power of hearing and the power of talking to those who have been without them.

☆ 1 Kings 11:29-32; 12:19

Now at that time, when Jeroboam was going out of Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite came across him on the road; now Ahijah had put on a new robe; and the two of them were by themselves in the open country.

And Ahijah took his new robe in his hands, parting it violently into twelve.

And he said to Jeroboam, Take ten of the parts, for this is what the Lord has said: See, I will take the kingdom away from Solomon by force, and will give ten tribes to you;

(But one tribe will be his, because of my servant David, and because of Jerusalem, the town which, out of all the tribes of Israel, I have made mine,)

So Israel was turned away from the family of David to this day.
