All scripture references are keyed to the Hebrew Bible. References in parentheses indicate some instances where English versions differ.
Notice passages that refer to the Messiah in Isaiah 53 and the new covenant
promised by God in Jeremiah 31:31 are NEVER read in the cycle. Jewish people can
live their entire lives, go to the temple every week, and still be unaware that
God inspired these areas of scripture to be written by these Jewish prophets. It is not uncommon for someone who is unfamiliar with Isaiah 53 to believe that it is a New Testament passage the first time they hear it.
