A proud- man, sooner or later, -comes into such circumstances that he is humiliated, ' whereas alemsereireeth ,say, and ' do not." Christ here is careful to d"istiingti:isli be- tween the office of those false .,religious Leachers and their actual practice. He becoguizes thatthey are worthy of being heard; as far as they upheld the -Mosaic Law. They were said to 'sit, in Moses seat'; that is, to be acting' in his place and to proclaim his Mere as teachers' of the .revealed will of God. In so far as they were true to such a sacred office they were Foto be •obeyed. It was their prac- tices however, which were to, be avoided, especially their failure to follow their own precepts. • To Be Seen of Men 4. "Yea, they bind heavy bur- dens and grievous to be borne, and laf them on men's shoulders;' but they'titetnselves will not move them with their finger., . 5..But all their works they do to be seen of men: for they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the bor- 'dors of their garments, 6. and love the chief place at feasts, and the chief, seats in the . synagogues." • The heavy burden.; here referred to are' the manifold, and often `ridicalops," interpretations of the law of Moses, which these re- ligious leaders insisted: that men "must .obey,; elaborate :Jaws cosh cerning Washing, the Sabbath, business relationships. Men could not • even remember the 'different laws they enacted, much less con tinually obey them: Phylactery signifies in classical Greek , a guarded • post,`, then .a safeguard, filially an amulet, as guarding against evil. • • , Christ, The Master ' 7.

Neither be ye called masters. for one is your master, even the Christ." What our Lord prohib- • its is desire for, the distinction involved in being recognized' as a religious teacher.
