In Sunday Mass, the four readings typically consist of an Old Testament reading, a responsorial psalm, a New Testament reading, and a Gospel reading. The first reading is usually from the Old Testament, the psalm reflects on that reading, the second reading is from the New Testament letters, and the Gospel reading is taken from one of the four Gospels. This structure helps to convey the core themes of the liturgy and deepen the congregation's understanding of Scripture.
