Luk. ix, 35 (R. V.) ? ?CommtnUry
I Pr*P,r*J by R.v. D. M. 8tsama.
This lesson, like the last. Is recorded
if Matthew and Luke as weU as by
^arW. Jt wag tbe one wcgsloo on
Which the glory Which w*. always to
Him waa allowed to shine through in
thla particular way. In the tabernacle
and in the temple the glory of God was
Jil'Mfs Jb j^e holy of holies abQve the
mercy seat, between the cheniblm, bat
the veil concealed It-the Tell which
was rent in twain from the top to the
bottom in the midst when He died and
which, we are told In Heb. x, 20. repre
sented His flesh or body. John saya
, "the word waa made flesh and
tabernacled among us, and we beheld
Hia glory."
Aa he makes no record of the trans
figuration, possibly be tfefere to It in
Uria saying, as well as to His whole
ufe on earth. Peter undoubtedly refers
when he says.
We made known unto yon the power
and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ
and were eyewitnesses of His males
In'* h* mentloIls the boly mount
and the words from the Father (John
?. M; n Pet I. 16-18).
r-lt .CO,Dnectlon the coming of
Christ In glory which He mentioned
in last week s lesson He said that some
of those who stood there would not
taste of death till they had seen
kingdom of God come with power or
the Son of Man coming In His king
dom. Then after six intervening days
or, as Lnke says, about eight days.'
i^to r?M hCter and ,ames and John
into a high mountain, apart by them
selves^ and as He prayed He waa trans
figured before them ft seems to me
that the wonder was not that the glory
now shone through the veil of His
flesh, but that it was always there, yet
concealed. But It was. as to His whole
life, the time of His appearing ae one
to us. sin excepted (Heb. U. 14).
His face did shine aa the son. and
His raiment waa white and glistening

aliTe and well and recognfceda, no
doubt we ahall know all In the alary
without Introduction. They talked
with Jesus about Hia decease, which
He should accomplish at Jerwalem
(Luke ix, 81).
By virtue of that atoning death the*
and all the redeemed frem Abel oe
ward had enjoyed centuries of bllaa aa
It were, on a premlssorv note now
about to T>e paid. None are in glory
nor ever can be except by virtue of
that precious blood In due time abedoa
Golgotha. It Is the blood that maketh
atonement, and without abedding of
blood there Is no remission of sins (Lev
*vli. 1 1 ; Heb. ix. 22). The diaciple, were
heavy with sleep. (Luke lx. 32). and so
"'thsemane. Are we
aot all in a measure asleep to the great
things of God? How oftefi we talk ss
foolishly as Peter, who suggested the
three tabernacles, not knowing what to

overshadowed them, and a voice came
out of the cloud, saying: "This Is my
beloved -Son. in whom I utn well
pleased. Rear ye Him." And they saw
no man any more save Jesus only with
themselves (verses 7. 8; Matt, xxvll, 5-8).
To Illm give all the prophets witness,
and so It must lie Jesus only. The Lord

of tbe other fingers on tbe same band
