SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON In the Last Week Jesus Came' Out in , Tile Full Publicity of His Ministry Text: Matthew By WILLIAM E. GILROY, D. D. If you care to look into it, you will be surprised,, as I was, to find how large a part of the Gos pelsall four of them are occu pied with the events and dis courses of the last week in the life and ministry of Jesus. It is, not only that the events of the last week were of deeper significance, and therefore call ed for greater spaqg as they dealt with the climax in the sacrificial ministry and the crucilxion; the records reveal much more. For the first time Jesus came out in the full publicity of His ministry, and in all His acts and utterances He committed himself with a Qrornpleteness Jhat hitherto had been lacking. Wiien the multitudes had thronged upon him in rural Gal ilee, He had withdrawn to the mountains, or had taken refuge in a boat and gone across the Sea of Galilee. When he had been acclaimed as the Messiah, "the Son of the Living God," His ad monition ha$ been Qee thou tell no man." The explanation of the with drawals, and the escapegjand the sileftes was that "His hour haij not yet come." But now, con scious that His hoi(T had come, He accepts the plaudits the throng. Where in rural Galilee He had been restrained, and had (held His disciples in restraint, here in the entrance to Jerusalem itself, in the full glare of pub licity, as if He were challenging His enemies, He allows himself to be set upon a colt, and to be hailed as "the King that comcth in the name of the Lord," while the people do Him homage, spread palm branches, and cast their garments in the way. It is unlike anything that has hap pened before. First Presbyterian Chufih ' Mnrk A.Ta'ncy, Minister Holy Week Concert of Sacred Music Sunday. March 2.) I ft. 7:30 P. M.

Sacred concert 7:30 p. m. Westminster fellowship, 6:30 p. m . 21:26; 27:1-56 Nor was this all. Examine the records, and you will find that Jesus spoke and acted witft an abandonment of every con sideration of safety or expedi ency, or of concern for the con tinuance of ICis ministry. He at tacked His enemies as hypo crites in bitter and scornful Q-ords; He assailed them and their kind as 9 "generation of vipers"; He drove the money changers out of the temple. In fact, if He had deliberately tried to arouse His enemies, He could hardly have done so more effec tively than He' did in the days immediately following the tri umphal entry. He knew that His hour had coiW'. He was prepared for the final sacrifice. He accepted His destiny. He might have contin ued His ministry if He had stay ed in Galilee and confined His ministry to sa of mercy and healing, and been cor.nt to go about doing good: but there were sterner ways of duty and destiny that He must follow. The way of the Cross lay before Him. Study the events and sayings of the last week, and much that oems mysterious is made plain. How in so few days could senti ment so change that the Jesus of tl.O triumphal entry could be the sacrificial Savior on the way to Olivary The answer is that those whom Jesus attacked with such intensity aroused the popu lace ocoinst Him. But it is also probable that the crowds that cried "crucify Him" were not the same who cried "Hosanna! Bless ed is the King that cometh in the name of the Lord." One would like to think that this is true, and that those who hailed Jesus with such enthusi asm were sincere and not fickle-minded.
