Readings for the day · Epiphany Season · All Four Lectionaries
The readings for February 15, 2026, in all four lectionaries
Roman Catholic keeps Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time; LSB Three-Year keeps The Transfiguration of Our Lord (Last Sunday after the Epiphany); Historic One-Year keeps Quinquagesima Sunday. Revised Common appoints no readings for this date. No reading is common to all three.

Revised Common Lectionary appoints no readings for this date, so it has no column above.
Every citation above opens its own page: the passage, verse-by-verse commentary, background and word study, the Church Fathers, and worship resources. An “or” line is the second track a lectionary offers for the same day, not a different Sunday. Agreement is judged by chapter, because the four rarely cut a passage to the same length.
