The Screwtape Letters, CS Lewis: https://price.dealoz.com/New-Used-Books/The-Screwtape-Letters/9780060652937
Genesis, Joseph interprets Pharaoh's dreams, the number 7 shows up again, 7 years of good harvest and 7 years of famine. Job continues his response to his friend. In Mark, Jesus curses the fig tree and flips the money changer's tables in the temple. Romans, Paul continues to speak about the relationship between God, Israel and Gentiles. I finish the chapter Knocking at the Door in beginning to pray.

Exodus, Pharaoh abuses the Israelites by increaseing the work load (assigning them to collect straw that was delivered to them before while keeping the quota the same). Moses questions God as to why his people are being abused even more after following His instructions.
Job, Job's friend responds similarly, following the pattern of accusational wisdom, and maybe even a mocking of what I thought was the most important line of Job's from the previous chapter: I don't think that way, that is my blessings come from my own doing
Luke, We read the complete explanations of this chapter from the Blessed Theophylact, here we cover the woman who touches the robe and cures her bleeding, the True Family of Jesus, the casting out of Legion into the pigs that drown, and more
1 Corinthians, Paul says that even though he could ask for payment for carrying out the Lord's work, he does not.

A long chapter and explanation in Matthew today, we skip reading from "The Orthodox Church" book because we go over an hour just with reading from scripture
Joshua: Joshua’s Final Words to Israel
Jeremiah: Jeremiah Questions the LORD’s Justice
Matthew: Pascha, Lord's Supper, Prayer and sleep on the Mount of Olives, betrayal, the arrest, "trial", Peter's denial. This chapter is extensive
