Book of Zechariah

Thus says the LORD of hosts: There shall yet come peoples, the inhabitants of many cities;
and the inhabitants of one city shall approach those of another, and say, "Come! let us go to implore the favor of the LORD"; and, "I too will go to seek the LORD."
Many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem and to implore the favor of the LORD.
Thus says the LORD of hosts: In those days ten men of every nationality, speaking different tongues, shall take hold, yes, take hold of every Jew by the edge of his garment and say, "Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you."

Psalms

His foundation upon the holy mountains,
the LORD loves:
the gates of Zion,
more than any dwelling of Jacob.
Glorious things are said of you,
O city of God!
I tell of Egypt and Babylon
among those who know the LORD;
of Philistia, Tyre, Ethiopia:
"This man was born there."
and of Zion they shall say:
“One and all were born in her;
and he who has established her
is the Most High LORD.”
They shall note, when the peoples are enrolled:
"This man was born there."
And all shall sing, in their festive dance:
"My home is within you."

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke

When the days for Jesus to be taken up were fulfilled, he resolutely determined to journey to Jerusalem,
and he sent messengers ahead of him. On the way they entered a Samaritan village to prepare for his reception there,
but they would not welcome him because the destination of his journey was Jerusalem.
When the disciples James and John saw this they asked, "Lord, do you want us to call down fire from heaven to consume them?"
Jesus turned and rebuked them,
and they journeyed to another village.

St. Jerome(Priest and Doctor of the Church (c. 340- c. 420) - Memorial)

SAINT JEROME Priest & Doctor of the Church(c. 340-c.420) St. Jerome was born in Dalmatia circa 347. He attended school in Rome, but his thirst for knowledge was excessive and his love for books a passion. He studied under the best masters, visited foreign cities and devoted himself to the pursuit of science. Little did he know that Jesus had need of his strong will and penetrating intellect. When St. Jerome encountered Jesus Christ, he died to himself. He made a vow of celibacy, departed Rome and lived in the wild Syrian desert. There, for four years, he learned penance, prayer and divine wisdom. When the pope besought St. Jerome to revise the Latin Bible, the latter used his fluency in Hebrew to great effect. The Latin Revision was St. Jerome's magnum opus and a blessing from the Holy Spirit. Retiring afterward to his beloved Bethlehem, he illuminated our Christian faith for another thirty years.
