After outlining her idea, of ^edued- Hnn which IncinHpH thrx ‘ and a G., geography, .Lady Tweedsmuir mentioned mechanical advantages ac­ corded the modern child over those of his predecessors but-added: “To stare stupidly at- the., movies arid listen, unintelligently to the radio is not "going to help people to have minds that work for themselves.

Of geography, Lady Tweedsmuir, said: “A comic, poet has written: ‘Geography is about maps, biography about chaps.’ And an enlightened un­ derstanding of maps and chaps should be the slogan of the worthy citizen.” LESSON VI.

Time—All that is recorded in this chapter took place during February and March, A.D. ‘3.0, shortly before Passion Week, . ■ < Place—The,.events of .this‘chapter took'place in Pearaea with the single exception of the. concluding miracle, the healing of-t'he blind man (vs. 35- 43) which, occurred near Jericho. “An he spake a parable unto tfidm to the end that they, ought always to pray, and1 not to faint.’’ Of course Christ does not mean to , say that to God, but that' our live^ ought to be continually abiding in . God, , and that, on every occasion, for every problem, for every need,, before every undertaking, instantly after .con­ sciousness of any sin, our souls, ought to go out to. God ..in confession, ad­ oration, intercession, thanksgiving, or petition. “Saying? "The.re was- irr- a- city—a- judge, who feared not God, and re­ garded not man.’’ A practical atheist .who does not scruple-to. confess him^ self to be What he is; a man living in defiance of both tables of the de­ calogue,, placed in a position of power to ’play the tyrant and availing him­ self of that position, to the full. “And there, was a widow in that city.” The word widow in the East was a synonym for helplessness. “And she came oft unto him, say­ ing, Avenge me of mine adversary.” ■•Apparently to persecute her and to rob her of what possessions „she had. “And he would. not .for a while; . but afterward he said .within him­ self, Though T fear not God, nor re­ gard man; yjet because, this ;ywidqw troubieth me,' J will avenge her, least she wear me out by her continual coming.” The judge was afraid that the .widow would, in a, modern phrase,, get on his nerves. “•*' •‘And the Lord said. Hear what the unrighteous judge saith.” .The' in­ sertion- indicates a pause during which the audience considers the parable, after which Jesus makes 'a comment and draws the moral of the narrative. “And shall not God avenge his elect, that , cry- to him day and night; and* yet. he is Iongauffering , over them?” If an unjust judge would yield to the importunity of an. un­ known widow who came and spoke to him at intervals-, how much more wiH a‘just God be ready to reward the perseverance of his own elect,, who cry to h;nr day and night? “I say ur.to you. that he will avenge them speedily.” Speedily here prob­ ably means suddenly. So taken, the expression conveys a truth, which we find elsewhere taught in Scripture, viz: that, however long the* critical action of divine providence is delay­ ed, it always conies suddenly at last. “Nevertheless, when the Son of mdn corrieth, shall be find faith on the. earth?” It is more accurate to trans­ late faith as the margin has it, the faith. This was hardly a question which Jesus asked others, for .others could riot answer it, but rather an ejaculation, something, which he uttered .to himself. Occurring where it occurs, it is like a' sigl). “And he spake also this parable unto certain who trusted jn them­ selves that they were righteous, and set all others at nought.” The ones to whom Christ is now speaking were self-righteous men who, super­ ficially, were probably attempting to pose as his followers. ■ .“Two men went up into the temple to pray.” On praying in the temple, see Arts 2 : 46; 5 12, 42;-Luke 21 : 53. "The one a Pharisee.” The Phar­ isees were noted for their rigid ad­ herence to the law*, for their aloof-' riess and their self-righteou«nes$. .Un­ doubtedly, this man was. as far as t-ing-- the- world could judge, a very moral 7person-,-indeed, quite • a neligions-per->- son., “And the.other a ptibfican,” For the meanirtg of a publican, .see the lesson dealing with Luko» .5 27. < “The Pharisee stood and prayed; thus with himself.” There is nothing1 particularly wrong wi.th this mariner .of praying, as some /would seem' (o state; to. pray with himself was fli.m-'., rply to pray in his mind-without ex­ pressing his thoughts'‘atidibjy. “G»d, I thank thee, Xhat I am riot as the. "rest of men, extortioners, unjust,■ .adulters, or even as this publican.” Actually, this, is not prayer at all. It is an utterance of thanksgiving, but he is not thanking Gori for something' that God has done, but. is'actually' congratulating himself for .what -he' himself is. “ I—f as-t-XAvl ee - i n- -th e-Aveelvr-t—give— tithes of all that.I get.” Ills descript­ ion of his facts and tithe-giving is! (doubtless quite correct. The man) says absolutely nothing about his; own sins. You can put^it down that( w.hen a .man does not confess sin to-’ God, he' has sins which he is afraid to. speak to God about. , • “But the publican, standing, afar- _offi.”:_He..p,ro.hably. stood far , off .from11 men whom he knew ,to be more' righteous than himself in a serisc of1 true un,worthiness. • uWould >not lift1' up so much aS his eyes .unto•heaven”” • (See Psalm 40 : 12; Ezra 9. : 6,)j' “But smote his breast.” An emblem of the stroke of death whidh’ the simj ner feels that he has merited at the;' hand of God. “Saying, God, be thouj merciful to me a sinner.”’The"Phari­ see thought of. others as • sinners. The publican thinks of himself alone, as the sinner, riot .of others at all-.— A..T, Robertson. - 1 “T” say? U n t o you, This,.'man we nF down to his house justified rather than the other.” It was not so. -much thought himself to be justified, as', that actually in.God’s sight he’had• that the man, in his Own heart,) been justifred. Here. is a clear il­ lustration of that great word justi-’ fication,' so continually used by the apostle Paul in the years that, fol-, lowed (Rom. 2 : 13; 3 : 4, 24, 28, 30; 5 : 1, 9; Gal. 2 : 16; 3 : 11). “For. every one that exalteth himself sliail) be" humbled.” The humbling of the self-satisfied Will consist in Covery' of self in the light of God's requirements. When a man comes to see what God meant him to be, , and puts by, the side of‘it the thihgs . that have satisfied him, he comes to the most terrible humbling. “But he that humbleth himself shall be ex­ alted.” The man who humbles him­ self in this life by placing himself under the atoning blood of the Lord Jesus, utterly devoid of all self- ^righteouspess, knowing himself to be a sinner^ and nothing else, is th© one Whom God ’ exalts into the far heavenly places sitting ogether with Christ Jesus (Eph. 1 : 3; 2 : •?)
