week, his
U enemies were firing at point
blank range. They were dead set to
kill him; but they did not want to
do that if they
could ru 1 n him
some other, way.
What they tried to
do was to make
him out either a
rascal or a fool, or
both. Mark's story
Shows how Jesus
took it.
The first ques
tlon they asked 0r Foreman
sounded perfectly
fair. "Where did you get your au
thority?" As we Jaw last week,
Jesus had assumed simply' trem
endous' authority Wasn't it -fair
to ask him where he got it?
' The trouble was that the men
who .asked tlx- questions didn't
want to know They only wanted
to heckle Jesus
The world is lull of just such
license-hunting snoopers a s
these. They do not like It when
a man succeeds. They partic
ularly do not like it. when a man
succeeds without their help.
"Who is this fellow anyway?
Where did he get his start? what
family does he have, where is his
diploma?" Jesus never answered
this question, because he knew why
they asked it. (Mark 11:27-33 i

TIME you could not
vote either (or more taxes, or
less. You paid what the .Roman
soldier at your door said to pay.
and you were to be
poked in the i r. nis sword
while you weiv i u up 'he mon
ey. But no oih u.i.ed to complain.
The Romans had some deep dank
dungeons for people who com
plained about hinn tuxes. So the
next question Jc-us enemies asked
him was aboui .;ixes. or tribute,
Which means the ajme thing. TJiey
thought they had Jesus on a spot
where whatever he said would put
him in the wrong Suppose he said:
l"3fe, Va lllilAs aU mans."
Then they wjo snarl: "Boot
licker of th Kumuns! Traitor to
your country!" 'But if JeSus said,
"No, don't pay taxes," then they
would howl: "Treason! Police! Ar
rest this man who defies the Em
peror!" Jesus' answer was a mas
terpiece, because he not only did
hot dodge the hot question, he did
not leave the questioners a leg to
stand on. (Mark 12:17).
Halrsplitters by Trade
THE CRITICS of Jesus were hair
splitters by trade. Yet none of
them had ever been able to an
swer another tricky question with
which they now expected to floor
Jesus.
"Which Is the greatest com
' mandment of all?" The ques
tion had been going the rounds
for generations. The greatest
minds In Jewery had wrestled
with H. But It was a foolish
question after all.
Which Is the most important
brick in a wall? What position on
a volley-ball team is the most
important? What is the most im
portant link in a chain? An answer
to these questions would seem about
as easy as answering that one about
the greatest commandment. Jesus
knev they were trying to show him
up as a bungler, as a very poor and
amateurish h&irspliuer indeed. But
instead, he did what no one ex
pected him to do: he answered their
question, and answered it so well
that it is one of the cornerstones
of our religion today
How to Take Criticism,
PHE ' READER siiould consult
Mark for. the whole story. It
bristles with practical thoughts, one
"of the most prai' km I ue-ng how to
take criticism All ui us can take
it from our mentis and families
we know they mean it for our own
fiood. But criUcism that is unfair,
from people who want only to show
us un for fools or to get us Into
hot water that Is hard to take,
I Jesus should be our example.
Be did not let other people's
v ferltlebttns Interfere with his
, ." work. . He eer -avoided crit
icism. He did not "twist the
'lion tallhe did not dellber
!. ately i provoke ' criticism.' But
, he would not claim . exemption
What every one has M
being looked over and
, rated by the people who knew
him. : . . '
. He never . broke his heart over
what dcodIb said of him. He did
not go around crying to himself.
