Take Walker Street or Westview Cars Golden Text—He Is despised and rejected of. men.—Isalali 63:3. Our Lora underwent three trials at the hands of the Jaws. The first, that before Annas, is rclufed only by John; the second, before Caiaphos, by Mat thew and Mark; tho third, before tho Sanhedrim, by Luke alone. Each trial as the narrators regarded It. might be the most Important. Tho ono in our lesson Is that before Cai- ophas. In our last lesson, wc saw Jesus be ing led away from the garden of Oetb- semane through tho hushed streets of the silent city to tlto palace of the high priest, which was Jointly occupied Dy Annas and his son-ln-Iaw, Caiaphos. Annas, now 70 years old, had been the actual high priest only seven years. Before this period, he had been deposed by the procurator Valerius Gratus. Ho Is the Ananus of Josephus. Since the days of Herod the Great, the high prieathootk had been degraded- from a permanent religious to a secular distinction. It was before Annas, the astute worldly Sadducoc. whose name meaning ‘'Merciful," was a misnomer, that Jesus flrst stood as a prisoner nt the tribunal. It there was one man more guilty than another of the death of Jesusrthat man was Annas. It Is worthy of note that the Pharl sees, who were the avowed enemies of Christ, nnd were eager for His death, after His arrest, took so little part that their name Is not mentioned. Tbe chief priests und elders seemed to have taken their place. The enmity of the latter was no doubt due to the Lord's words nnd acts concerning th. temple which they regarded as th.tr domain and to His cleansing of It. In alt three evangelists, Matthew, Mark nnd Luke, we find those who complained of the net were the "chief priests and scribes." The general in dlgnatlon against the gross abuses would Interfere with their illicit and avaricious gains. After a few ques tions. and after Jesua had been smit ten on tho face. He was led bound across the court yard to Caiaphos, who, like his father-in-law, was a Sadducce, equally unscrupulous, and possessed of less force of character and will. The Roman soldiers were halted out' side, for their presence would have been a defilement. Th. tribunal about to condemn Hint was not a legal court. From beginning to end, It was a Mock Trial. It was contrary to all the rules of a legal trial. In all case, the accused was considered Innocent till proven guilty. It was the duty of the presid ing officer to admonish the witnesses that they must remember the value of human life, and every doubt must bo In the prisoner's favor. All evidence must he freely admitted and a council appointed to defend the accused. The verdict of acquittal could be given at once, but “that of guilty only the day after the trial. A capital trial could not begin on tho day preceding the Habbnth or public feast. No criminal trial could bo beld thtmigh the night. The judges who condemned had to fast all the previous day, and no one could be executed on the same day that the sentence was pronounced. In the trial of Jesus, all these rules were disre garded. The judge himself took the part of accuser; no witnesses were called In His defense, though tho laty gave such a preference. His real offense was that the prlcet ly authorities felt that He was diffusing a spiritual Influence that would under mine the corrupt theocracy nnd their own power and worldly Interests. He had violated no Mosaic law that would condemn Him to death, so there was nothing left but to fain horror as Jews, thnt He had raised himself above the laws of Moses and claimed equality with God, and as political friends of the Romans, whom they hated, to pre tend Indignation nt the disloyalty of the emperor, whom Ho would displace as king. There Is every reason to bsliere thnt Oafapitas hod determined to convict Him before the trial. All he wished was to secure the aid of the Romnn executioner. At this tlmo the jews could not sentence any one to death, and their method of execution was by stoning, hence It was necessary to se cure the aid of tbe Roman executioner, and It was their wish that He should die by crucifixion, the most cruel and Ignominious death that none but the vilest criminals were condemned to suf. and His disciples, but Jesus remained silent. He bad spoken openly In the synagogues. In the temple and to the assembled thousands. The law did not require ono to crlmlnato himself, bui that witnesses should testify. An hon est and formal Inquiry was no part of the plan of Caiaphos. Ho wished to lmnd Him over to the Romans as soon as possible, that He might not be res cued by the people, many of whom be lieved on Him. Then ono of tho turn keys In violation of all judicial rules struck the prisoner on the mouth with hli band. v Fatso witnesses were brought In ter make some charge of false doctrine, nr seditious language, but they could get no evidence to establish a charge of which the Romans would take/cog nizance. For months they had tried to draw from Him something they could twist Into an attack on the national religion or the Roman government, but had failed. Some witnesses had nothing to say, others contradicted themselves. At last one witness testified thnt ho had heard Jesus say He would destroy the temple. Christ had said: "Destroy this temple and In throe days I will build It again”—not that He would. destroy It, and He was speaking of His own body and not the templo that had been for ty-six years In building. Meanwhile Jesus remained silent. “As a sheep be fore his shearers Is dumb. He opened not His mouth,” He knew It would be Idle to speak before such a tribunal. At last Calaphas asked If Jesus had nothing to say In His own defense. He remained silent. He might have cloaed the examination nt this point and taken a’vote. Looking into the calm, dignified face of Jesus, speaking In Aramaic, he asked If Hu were the King Messiah, the Bon of God, With kingly dignity nnd In tho face of certain death, Jesus answered that He was. Alt changes affecting the temple, or Judaism, would have had no effect upon the procurator, bilt now that Ho hud claimed to be the Messiah He could be represented to Dilate os u state criminal. Tills preliminary exam ination needed to be confirmed by a larger gathering of the hierarchy. This happened about 3 o’clock Fri day morning: There was nothing to re. strain the coarse natures to whoso care the condemned had been con signed.

Seated In tbe center of a semi-circle, with the judges around Hlm.'Calaphas began to question bis prisoner, assum ing the duty of prosecutor. He asked Him many question* about .Himself: Georgian now J6.50. bigots, they vented their cruelty on Him with the coarsest brutality. Hav ing blind-folded Him. they struck Him on tbo head with tbetr fists, others slapped His face with their bunds, while others adding the greatest in dignity on Oriental could offer, spat In His face. John and Peter, recovering from their flrst panic, and anxious to see what hud become of their Master, fol lowed at a distance tilt He was brought to the house of Calaphas. The door of the outer court had been closed, but John, being known to the household, was readily admitted, and at Ills so. Ucltatlon, Peter also. It was a chilly April night, nnd around the Are that had been kindled In tbo court stood Peter, wondering what tho end would be nnd doubtless fear ing for bis dwn safety. All are familiar with the story of his denial, how he de. nled Him thrice, the lust time with an oath, and the cock crew, and ho was reminded of wlint his Lord had said. Just then they led Him by and we are told ‘‘The Lord looked on Peter”—not, wc Imagine, a look of reproach, nr an ger, or condemnation, but one of love and tenderness, that pierced Peter's heart and sent him out to weep bitter tears of penitence. Toward the close of the fourth watch, and before day break, the heads of the theocracy had extemporized a semblance of the old high court of the nation, but It was necessary that the whole Banhedrlm should ratify a sentence of death. The proceedings, however, were only for mal, to hear the sentence of the com mission and Indorse It. When this was done the way was clear to hand Him over to Pilate.
