 \n# A LITU RGICAL INDEXTO THE BIBLE\n\nAccording to the Use  \nof the Protestant Episcopal Churchin the United States of America(Lectionary of 1943)  \nAn Aid to Musicians and ClergyCompiled by James Pressler,Choirmaster and Organist,  \nSt.Luke's-of-the-Mountains ChurchLa Crescenta,California  \n# INTRODUCTION\n\nOne of the glories of the liturgicalChurch is that,using the lectionary andthe Eucharistic propers,one may chooselessons,hymns,and anthems that willpresent a cohesive and unified service.  \nLessons and hymns are already in-dexed liturgically in the Book of Com-mon Prayer and in the Hymnal 1940.Anadditional index appears in the HymnalSupplement.But the anthem library ofone parish is not standardized with thatof any other,and the choirmaster mustrely on his past experience and a greatdeal of searching in order to providesuitable anthems each Sunday.  \nThe following index will provide astarting point for the liturgical categor-izing of your own parish's anthems.Simply check every biblical text in yourpresent library against the listings in thisbook.When you find an anthem suitablefor a given Sunday or Holy Day,note it(together with the appropriate service)on a card headed with the name of thespecial day.When the library is indexedin this manner,you will find there aresome days with a large number of appro-priate anthems,other days with none.This will be a guide to future anthem-buying.It may even be a guide to futureanthem-composing.  \nSome technical matters regardingthis index:a hyphen(-)after a numbermeans to continue reading until end ofchapter(or psalm).\"Sundays after\"or“Sunday in”is abbreviated to a number—thus,“1 Ascension”is the first Sun-day after Ascension and“2 Lent”is thesecond Sunday in Lent.  \nReadings from Evening Prayerhave not been included only for thoseparishes which read this office on Sundayevenings:often an underlying thoughtwill pervade an entire Sunday,makingthe evening lessons equally appropriatefor the morning.One should check thereading in question,however.  \nJames Pressler  \nGENESIS  \n3:1-15Eve Annunciation,EP  \n15:1-621 Trinity,EP  \n19:1-36 Epiphany,EP  \n19:12-176 Epiphany,EP  \n19:24-286 Epiphany,EP
