c fit V. m mary the Mother of jesus International Sanday School Lesson for August 27, 1950 . Memory Selection: "My soul mag nifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my saviour." Luke 1: 46-47. Leseott Texts Luke It 46-48; 2: 48-51; Mark Zi 81-35? John 19: 25-27; Acta 1: 14. No series of lessons on the great .men and women of the Bible would ' be complete without study, of Mary, the mother of Jesus However, we know very little about her from an historical standpoint We do not know who her parents were, only that Eliza beth, the mother of John the Baptist, was her cousin. It is a strange fact that none of the biographies we have of Jesus relate anything about the years he spent aa as child and young man in Nazareth. (Following the return of Mary and Joseph from Egypt, with - the baby Jesus, they settled in Nazareth. The next we hear of the family is upon the occasion of their trip to Jerusa lem, when the boy Jesus was twelve years old. All we know of their home life is summed up, however, in Luke 2s 64, "And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature and ' in favor with God and Only in a home of love, helpfulness, thoughtfulness, care and consideration does a child grow in all phases men tally, physically and socially. Thus, we can assume that the home over which Mary presided was such a home. The early years Jesus spent in the home Witt his 'mother, Mary, were very important more important than l twig is bent, so grows the tree." We are told that Joseph; the fath er in the home, died when Jesus was a young boy and, after that, of course, his whole training was in the hands of Wb mother. Hers must have been an ' unusual ' home to have- produced such a spirit as his. bjftW-jnanjJexesnto. iesSabout Mary, some of them very beautifuk .Many false traditions have grown .up about her. and msiy be lievers 'in the Christ have ascribed to her the diety which belongs to him, having made Jesus subservant to , his mother. . This was never meant to be. If you will read the words of Jesus carefully, you will Bee that he gave her the high place to which all Jewish mothers have been raised and no more! Oftentimes, the scriptures tell us that Mary "kept all these things in her heart" She fought her battles crilont.lv in her heart, all the way from Bethlehem to Calvary. She realized her sacred task of rearing a gifted Son for a heavenly mission. Her task was to rear him, to protect him, to keep him from exhaustion. However, he could not let her anxiety much as it troubled him, prevent him from doing his great work. -Much, as, this must have disturbed her, her care of him in Nazareth, her eoncern for him during his exhausting ministry, her faith in him as he hung on the cross and died, have put her among the first saints of the Christian" Church. Unto the end, she believed in her Son. The world today needs more moth ers like Mary." The need is for moth ers who put their homes first Dr. James I. Vance, in One Hundred, Best Sermons, declared:' , "The , revival of the home is more important than the revival of the church! The home is nliW in M nlan. It is basic No revival in the church gets far enough nor lasts long enougn, wmcit aoes not affwt the home.: The church is 'the important institution of society, save one. ' It is more Important than the . hiMi; or the school or the state, but i:. it is not more important than the hom& The character of xne cnurcn is flvMt Wr fli'a hnm.
