Reading (John
1:24-28) |
Argument: In this passage, St. John continues to
speak of the meeting between John the Baptist and the Pharisees who were
sent from Jerusalem to question him. John tells them that the One he
told them about earlier—the Word—is among them and that they shall soon
see Him! As we read, we will discuss the Substantives and
Adjectives we find, to see our Grammar lessons in action.
