    354. Passion of John the Baptist Aug 29, 2026
    Show notes

    The Feast of the Passion (or Beheading) of Saint John the Baptist is commemorated annually on August 29. It marks the martyrdom and death of John the Baptist, unlike his other major feast on June 24, which celebrates his birth. The word "passion" comes from the Latin word passio, which means "suffering" or "enduring." Christians believe John the Baptist's death mirrors Christ's ultimate sacrifice. The Church uses "passion" to elevate John's death above common martyrdom. John the Baptist and Jesus are the only figures whose deaths are considered liturgical "passions."

    E236. Pericope Adulterae Aug 25, 2026
    Show notes

    The Woman Caught in Adultery (adulterae) is a New Testament passage (pericope) that relates a message of mercy and forgiveness balanced with a call to holy living have endured in Christian thought. Both "let him who is without sin cast the first stone" and "go, and sin no more" have found their way into common usage. The English idiomatic phrase to "cast the first stone" is derived from this passage. The passage has been taken as confirmation of Jesus's ability to write, otherwise only suggested by implication in the Gospels, but the original word in John 8:8 could mean "draw" as well as "write".

    Celebrated annually on August 24 by the Catholic Church, the Church of England, and other Western Christian traditions to honor Bartholomew the Apostle. Often identified as Nathanael from the Gospel of John, an early follower introduced to Jesus by Philip. He Preached the Gospel in regions including India, Mesopotamia, Egypt, and Armenia. Tradition holds he was martyred in Armenia by being flayed alive and beheaded. He is the Patron saint of tanners, leather workers, bookbinders, and butchers. Who was Bartholomew the Apostle?
