Micah in the Daily Office Lectionary
The Daily Office Lectionary appoints Micah 10 times in its two-year course and once on Holy Days. The course reads all of its 7 chapters, 3 of them in full.
Chapter by chapter
- Year One reads chapter 7 during Easter and the Season after Pentecost, at Morning Prayer.
- Year Two reads chapters 1–7 during Christmas and the Season after Pentecost, at Morning Prayer.
Micah chapters: both years 7; Year Two only 1–6; in part 1, 4–6.
- Year One only
- Year Two only
- Both years
- Half filled: only part of the chapter
- Not in the two-year course
When both offices have two lessons, “the Old Testament Reading for the alternate year is used as the First Reading at Evening Prayer” (BCP p. 934). This site and the app follow that rubric, so most of these lessons are heard twice: at Morning Prayer in the year listed, and at Evening Prayer on the same day in the other year.
