TK? Ltuon
And the day of the unleavened bre*
came, on which the passover must b<
sacrificed. And He sent Peter ant
John, saying, "Go and make ready foi
us the passover, that we may eat
And they said unto Him, "Where wil
thou that we make ready?" And H<
said unto them, "Behold, when ye ar<
"Jiteved into the city, there shall meel
gu a man Bearing a pitcher of water
?low him into the house whereintt
he Booth. And ye shall say unto the
master of the house, 'The Teachei
L-'ith unto thee, Where is the guest
chamber, where I shall eat the pass
over with my disciples?' And he will
show you a large upper room furnish
ed: there make ready." And they
went, and found as He had said unto
them: and they made ready the pass
over. And when the hour was come,
He sat down, and the apostles with
Him. And He said unto them, "With
desire I have desired to eat this pass
over with you before I suffer: For I
say u^'ito you, I shall not eat it, until
it be fulfilled in the Kingdom of God."
And He received a cup, and when He
had given thanks, He said, "Take this,
and divide it among yourselves: For
I say unto you, I shall not drink from
henceforth of the fruit of the vine,
until the Kingdom of God shall come."
And He took bread, and when He had
giv?n thanks, He brake it, and gave
to them, saying, "This is my body
which is given for you: this do in re
membrance of Me.'^ And the cup in
like manner after" supper, saying,
"Thin cup is the new covenant in my
blood, even that which is poured out
for you. But behold, the hand of him
that betrayeth Me is with Me on the
table. For the Son of Man indeed go
eth, as it hath been determined: but
woe unto that man through whom He
is betrayed!" And they began to ques
tion among themselves, which of them
it was that should do this thing.

only many great truths explained
j therein, but will also fail to get the
j full significance of this lesson. Begin
j at the time when Jesus made His tri
ll. umphant entry into Jerusalem, and
> study the matchless scenes described
t in these two chapters before trying
, to grasp the lesson for next Sunday.
, Read of the teachings of Christ in the
j temple, and see how the leading Jews 1
. sought to trap Jesus in this teaching.
, The chief priests and 'the scribes, and '
, leading Jews, the Romans, the Phari- 1
. sees and the Sadducees, all joined 1
, hands, ancient enemies though they 1
. were, yet willing to lay aside their J
I personal animosities and join forces !
. in battling against this New Power,
. this Man of Galilee, whose work had !
threatened their thrones and chal
, ienged their positions of power.
You will see wherein the chief J
priests and scribes sought to lay vio- t
lent hands upon Jesus, and were pre- ?#
vented from so doing only because of
their fear of the great throngs which
followed Him and believed on Him. 1
Those of you who attend our courts J
will be most interested in the way 11
and manner in which He replied to f
the many questions put to Him by ?
those who sought His destruction, and "
each one of these questions was an- 0
swered in such manner as to put to e
rout those who questioned Him. It is v
in these chapters, also, that Jesus ?
gave to the world that beautiful story
of the great gift represented by the r1
widow's mite, and other equally grip- 11
ping and interesting presentations of P
wonderful truths which have come p
down through the ages to cheer the
despondent .encourage the discourag- 1
ed, and strengthen the weak.
Study well the pictures presented j
of the second coming of Christ. We ?
are much too busy these days trying 5'
to accumulate fortunes, or in an ef- ?
fort to rebuild a fortune that has just jr
been swept away, to give much study '
to the all-important question of the
second coming of Christ. It is well R
and good for us to study about the
time that Jesus came two thousand
years ago, but unless the study of that
great event leads us to be prepared Cl
for the next coming, an event of
greatest import to each and every one
of us, then we have gained nothing
in our study of the first coming of H
Christ. We know not the day nor 01
the hour, but we do know that He ir
is coming, and .the only safe way for a
us to live, then, is to so live that His cc
coming at any time, any hou:, would ir
find us ready. Study well the lessons ri
in these intervening chapters, and J<
then tike up the chapter in which st
this lenson is found. tl
This chapter begins with explana- ^
tion of the feast of unleavened bread, f"
which vras drawing nigh, and was
called the Passover, an event religi
ously observed by the Jews in remem
bianco of their deliverance from
bondage under the leadership of ljl
Moses. The lamb was killed on the
evening before the feast, and roasted
whole. Its shed blood denotes atone- m
ment for sin. Unleavened bread was
eaten with the lamb to signify purity,
while the bitter herbs used with the a:
feast signified the bitterness of Egyp
tian bondage. As this feast drew near
the enemies of Jesus sought some
means of slaying Him. The Sanhe- 11
drill, or Jewish Senate, was bitterly ^
incensed against Him because of the 01
defeats they encountered in trying to c''
tiap Jesus. *1 hey were shrewd men, ^
and they knew that the common peo- w
pie, the masses, as we call them, were b
on the side of Jesus, and they knew E
that tney must take Him by sharp ''
tactics. They were looking for a weak fl
place in the organization of which b
Jesus was the central figure, and be- H
ing smart men, they found that weak 1
place. They found a member of Jesus <1
Christ s own group, one of the Twelve, si
that they could buy. These smart ei
Jews had been watching the disci- J
pies, just as the world is today watch- ^
ing the preachers and church' leaders, k
and they found their man. They had "
seen the greed in the face of Judas; e
they knew how he had fussed when ti
Mary poured precious ointment on b
the tired feet of her Master; they r
knew the look of selfishness in the v
eyes of Judas as he schemed and d
planned to be always nearest Jesus, I
not because of his desire to be near
?I'm, but his selfish desire to be seen r
nearest Him, and, therefore, be look- g
ed upon as the big man in the organi- 1
zation. ^
j So these members of the Jewish t
Senate, knowing their man, paid him c
thirty pieces of silver to betray the c
Master, just as men have been selling i
out ever since for their own personal it
and to satisfy their own greed. I
Then cr.me the day of unleavened
biead, when the lamb must be slain 1
for the Passover, which Jesus determ- j
med to keep in the city. Calling Peter I
and John to Him, He ordered them
to go and make preparations for the
Passover. They asked Him where
-hey were to. go, and He told them to
go into the city, and they would see

C?MiM Gertrude Posey of Mills
River, is visiting friends here this
W6A.kparty made up of young folks
from Rosnian, Lake Toxaway and
Oakland, and chaperoned by Mr. ana
a man carrying a pitcher of water,
und they were to follow him into
whatever house he entered. This was
an easy task, because the sight ef a
man carrying a pitcher of water was
i rare sight, because the women car
ried the water always. They were to
follow this man into the bouse, ana
say to the master of the house: The
Teacher saith unto thee, where is the
ruest chamber, where I shall eat the
Passover with my disciples. Jesus
;old Peter and John that the master
>f the house would show them a large
lpper room, furnished, and there
hey were to make ready for the
east.
Peter and John found the place, as
hey had been directed, and made
cady for the Passover. When the
iour had come, Jesus and His disci
>les went to the prepared place, and
he Master told His disciples that He
ad earnestly desired to eat this Pass
ver with them, the last that He was
ver to observe, Tie knew that He
rould no more observe this feast be
ore the establishment of the Kingdom
hrough the death of the Son. It was
he custom to use four cups of wine
i observance of this feast, and He
oured the first cup, and gave thanks,
assed it to the disciples, and told
lem to divide among themselves. He
ien brake the bread, and gave it to
le disciples, saying: "This is My
ody which is given to you, and in
icated that ere long His body would
b broken on the cross for the re
emption of a lost world. This do
i remembrance of me," He told them,
laugurating in that moment a com- 1
lemoration which He desired tQ be
ermanently observed by all who, in
le ages to come, should be His fol
iwers. 1
Another cup, presumably the fourth
id, was passed, and Jesus said.
This cup is the new covenant in my |
ood, even that which is poured out
>r vou." Ah He knew that ere long
is precious blood would be spilled |
i Calvarv for mankind, and it was,
ideed, a New Testament, a new day, |
new way, for any by which men
mid be saved from their sins. And
i that moment, with these words still j
neing in the ears of the disciples,
:sus suddenly turned from these in
ductions and pointed to the fact ^
mt even in that moment, sitting at (
ie table, drinking the wine that He
5U red, eating of the bread that He
?oke, was a man who was to betiay ,
im to the enemy, for He said: |
"But behold, the hand of Him that
?trayeth Me is with Me on this ta
e " Then, continuing, Jesus said:
For the Son of Man goeth, as it hath
>en determined, but woe unto the
an through whom He is betrayed.
And then, we are told, the disciples
,,ran to question among themselves
5 to which one of the group that
10uld do this thing.
