LESSON IX, SECOND QUARTER, INTER
NATIONAL SERIES, MAY 29.
Teat at the Lessen. Matt, snvl, IV-30.
Memory Vereee, 20-US—Golden Test,
. I Car. V, V—Cenasslsrr Prepared
by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
[Ceprrlfht, UOS, by Aatrkta Prat Attodstin.]
Between the last lesson, on humility,
and this pataover lesson we have omit
ted nearly all the events of the last
week of HI* life and have com# fight
np to the very last evening before His
crucifixion. It seems so unsatlsfaetery
to get so llttlo where there Is so mtseh,
bat this is true of" even the smallest
portion of Scripture, and we most rely
upon the Spirit to give ns all that Bar
tecs we can receive. In a sentence, let
os glance at some of the things we
have passed over—the healing of the-
blind as he entered and left Jericho,
the visit to the boose of Zaccheus, the
supper and anointing at Bethany, the
pnbUc entry Into Jerusalem, the temple
cleansed, the fig tree cursed, the poor
widow's offering commended and many
parables and discourses.
Hsppy are the believers who pan
find time to meditate mneb upon these
uud upon sll Scripture. Tbe events or
our lesson era recorded by Mark and
Lake as well at by Matthew, and Luke
zzll, 8, says that He sent l’eter and.
John, saying, "Go und prepare us tbe
passover that we may eat.” Then they
aaked Him, “Where wilt Then that we
prepare for Thee to eat the passover?”
He sent them into the city, telling them
that a man bearing a pitcher of water
would meet them and by following-bin.
they would find the bouse. Then they
were to ask tbo geoduian of the bouse,
and he would ahuw them u large upper
room, furnished und prepared, and
there they were to make ready. They
found as He bad said and did as He
had appointed them (Mark xlv, 13-10).
There is a word in i’rov. ill, 5.0. which
baa Iwen a blessing to me for fall forty
yearn, having taken hold of me when I
was a young man. a clerk In a store.
Do not fail to look it up and eat it, and
may the “where wilt thou” of this
lesson and tbe “what wilt thou” of
Acta lx, 0, be onr continual attitude to
Him whose we ere and whom we serve
(Acta xxvll, 23). who bus all onr good
works prepared for us to walk in and
who will guide us as sorely and defi
nitely n» He guided tbe apostles on
this occasion and when He sent them
far the ass' colt (Lake zlz. 30-32). See
for your comfort and assurance In tbo
matter of guidance Eph. II. 10; Phil, iv,
0. T; Ps. zxxil. 8; Isa. xzx. 21; xli. 13:
but bo sure you never lean to your own
understanding nor want yonr own way
in anything; bo good clay in tbe poster’s
hand (Isa. Ixlv. S; Jor. xvill. 6).
Now let us visit tbo npper room and
see our Lord aod the twelve at tbe
passover. This also had been foreseen
and arranged before tbe world was.
Of nil tbe possovere, frpm tbe first in
Egypt (Ex. xli). this was the greatest,
for It wns tiie last, tbe consummation
and fulfillment of all the others. Con
cerning this one He sald s “With desire
I hare desired to eat this passover with
you before 1 suffer; (or 1 any unto you.
i will not any more eat thereof until
it lie fulfilled In tiie kingdom of God"
(I.ukc xxli. 15. HI). Thus IIo points
us on to a greater deliverance for Is
rael than ever Egypt bad witnessed
(.Ter. xvl, 14. 15; xzltl, T. 8). All the
steps in the great atonement whereby
Israol should be redeemed, the church
gathered and the kingdom of God es
tablished on this earth bad' been ar
ranged In tbe eternity past, in due time
unfolded, foretold, foreshadowed to
man, and ns tbe appointed time comes
all Is fulfilled, for “tho Scripture can
not be broken.” and "every purpose of
tho Lord shall bo. performed” (John
X, 85; Jer. 11,20).
The Institution of tho passover (Ex.
xli) should lie carefully studied, and
the lessons of the lamb, tho blood, the
Miter herbs, the unleavened bread, etc.,
lie prayerfully enforced. The feet wash
ing and the teaching connected there
with (John Mill. 1-17) should be consld- 1
ered before Jadns Iscariot la pointed
out us tho betrayer. How awful the
words, “One of you shall betray me."
"It had been good for that man it he
had not been born" (verses 2t, St).
Jesus knew from the beginning who
they were that believed not and who
should betray Him (John vl. (H), but
that did not In the least excuse Judas,
for he bad every opportunity to believe
if bo hnd only been willing. In John
xlll, SO, we read that Judas, having re
ceived the sup, weut immediately out.
and It wns night. It Is still night with
him who betrayed Ills Master, ihc
blackness of darkness forever, and
there Is no escape (Job xxxvi, 18; Luke
xvl, 20; ltev. xxl, 8).
The passover being fulfilled, or about
to be, but not for tbe national benefit
of Israel at that time, because thoy
knew not the time of tbelr visitation
and would not have tbelr Messiah, He
Instituted a new ordinance to continue
till He shall come again, ns it is writ
ten In I Cor. xl, 28, “As often ns ye eat
this bread und drink this cup ye do
shew tiie Lord's death till He conic."
Then shall begin that phase of the
kingdom when Christ shall reign till
tic hntb put all enemies under His feel,
after wbleb He shall deliver up the
kingdom to God the Father, that God
may be all in all (1 Cor. xv, 24-28i.
During the time of Ula absence we arc
to be wise and faithful stewards occu
pying till He come (Luke xlx, 13).
We are to be His faithful witnesses,
preaching repentance and forgiveness
of alns among all nations and not
shrinking from fellowship with Him
even in somewhat of a Gethsemanc
and Calvary experience a* tar aa He
may see fit to grant it to ns. As Hia
body end blood wen given for ns we
roost bold oure, thus redeemed, wholly
at His disposal as HI* witnesses (Rom.
xU. 1.2; II Cor. lv, 11; I Cor. vl, 19, 20).
