The scripture index runs the other way round: start from a passage and it tells you every Sunday and festival that appoints it, in all four traditions.
What is a lectionary?
A lectionary is a schedule of Bible readings appointed for each Sunday and festival of the church year. Rather than a preacher choosing a passage each week, the readings are set in advance and followed in common, so congregations across a tradition hear the same scripture on the same day. Lectionaries run on a three-year cycle. Year A focuses on Matthew. Year B on Mark. Year C on Luke. The historic one-year lectionary is the exception. It repeats the same readings annually. Appointed readings are as old as Jesus’ day.
A Sunday usually appoints four readings: one from the Old Testament, a psalm, one from the epistles, and one from the gospels. The four traditions agree far more often than they differ, and where they differ the difference is usually a matter of a few verses or a week’s displacement.
