Is the Revised Common Lectionary the same as the “daily” lectionary?
The Revised Common Lectionary is a weekly lectionary, although it does have some additional readings for special feast days. There are several daily lectionaries in wide use. One of the most popular is the Daily Office of the Episcopal Church (U.S.A.). The Daily Office is a two-year cycle of daily lections with four readings for each day of the calendar year. Year 1 is used in odd-numbered years, Year 2 is used in even-numbered years.
