THE SUNDAY SC1130 LESSON
INTERNATIONAL LESSON,
NOVEMBER 21.
Lesson VII1. The Transflgnretion,
Mark 9. 2.13. Golden
text, Luke 9. 35.
Verse 9. After six . clays -So in
both Mark and Matthew; Luke,
however says "about eight days,"
which is -obviously intended to be
a leasprecise statement,: as the
word "about" indicates.
Peter, and James, and John -
The selected group of disciples,
forming an inner circle within the
larger company, and selected on
several other occasions to :be the
exclusive companions of, Jesus at
crucial moments in his ministry. •
A high mountain -Luke uses the
definite article "the," while in 2
Peter 1. 13 the scene of the trans-
figuration is referred to as "the
holy mount." For the place com-
pare introductory paragraph above.
'Transfigured - LiteraIly, meta-
morphosed, or, as Luke, following
more nearly the literal sense of the
word, has it, altered. Jesus him-
self refers to what happened as a
vision (Matt, 17. 9). However we
may explain the event, it was clear-,
ly a revelation of reality and no
mere mockery of the senses.
3. Glistering - An exceptional
word, not occurring again in the
New Testament, though used else-
where in describing the flashing of
burnished brass or gold.
As no fuller on earth can whiten
them -The fuller's art seems to
have consisted in "washing the ma-
terial with some preparation of
lye, beating or rubbing it, and ex-
posing it to the rays of the sun."
The cleaning and bleaching involv-
ed in this process achieved excep-
tional results in the whitening of
the cloth, as remains of ancient
Egyptian linen testify.
4. Elijah with Moses -Usually re-
garded as representing the two
great stages of Old Testament re-
velation, prophecy and legislation.
In reality, however, Moses was as
much of a prophet as Elijah, while
Elijah was constantly insisting up-
on the requirements of Jehovah's
law.
Talking with Jesus -Concerning
his impending decease at Jerusa-
lem (compare Luke 9. 31).
5. Peter answereth-All three
synoptists represent Peter as the
spokesman of the apostolic group
Hie action under the circumstances
is wholly in keeping with his eager,
ardent, and impulsive nature.
Rabbi -A customary title by
which a pupil addressed his teacher.
Three tabernacles -Or, -booths.
These on the. slopes of Mount Her-
mon could easily be made from
branches of trees. Peter is wholly
unselfish and forgetful of the needs
of both himself and his two com-
panions. thinking only of the Mas-
ter and his distinguished visitants.
0. Knew not what to answer -
The overwhelming impression of
the vision seemed to demand some
word in response. Its marvelous
nature, however, was conducive to
awe and fear rather than to sober
reflective thought.
7. There came a cloud -Peter's
Rheumatism
Is A Constitutional Disease.
It manifests itself in local aches and
pains, -Inflamed joints and stilt mus-
dles,-but it cannot be cured by local
applications.
It. requires constitutional treatment,

well -meant but only half coherent
proposal is not answered, except in
the progress of events incident to
the divine manifestation as a
whole; of this the ove]shadowing,
cloud and the voice out of the cloud
were.a part.
Hear ye him -Not Mosses and the
prophets, but Jesus, is hereafter to
be their guide and authority.
8. They saw no one any mol'o,
save Jesus only -The actual depar-
ture of Moses and Elijah it was not
given the disciples to witness.
9. As they cadre coining down -
According to Luke, apparently on
the, morning following the trans-
figuration.
Save when -The time of the re-
surrection is left' indefinite and con-
tingent.
10. Kept the saying -Obeyed his
command to tell _ no man, though
among , themselves the strange
words of Jesus concerning his resur-
rection from the dead, together
with the event itself, was a matter
of frequent conversation and ques-
tioning.
11. And they asked him -A fur-
ther difficulty presents itself to
their thinking. According to the
teaching a g of the scribes, the advent.
of the Messiah. was to be preceded
by the reappearance of Elijah; but
here was an appearance of Elijah
after the Messiah's advent, con-
cerning which Jesus had charged
them to say nothing.
12. Elijah indeed cometh first
Jesus interpreted this prophecy as
having been fulfilled in the life and
work of John the Baptist, who came
and taught in the spirit of the Old
Testament prophet.
Restoreth all things -In the sense
of inaugurating a great moral re-
form movement for the religious
betterment • and renovation of
Israel,
Suffer many things and besetat
nought -The humiliation of being
despised and rejected by those
whom he came to redeem was the
severest part of the Master's suf-
fering.
13. They have also done unto him
-The three disciples understood
that Jesus meant to identify Elijah
with John, Matthew's account
clearly pointing out the fact that
he did. (Matt. 17. 13.)
As it is written of him -What is
recorded in the Old Testament re-
garding Ahab's and Jezebel's treat-
ment of Elijah (1 Kings 19) was ty-
pical of Herod's and Herodias's
treatment of John.

TllE GOSPEL OF DEMOCRACY
Christians Are Concerned with Principles of Social
Justice and Righteousness.
Here lies, it seems to me, the pri-
mary'mission of the Christian
church, and the first duty of the
Christian man in the 'midst of our
social and industrial strife -name-
ly: to realize the 'democracy of the
kingdom of God and the brother-
hood of all men in Christ Jesus.
There are other things to be done.
For example, there are economic,
industrial and political reforms that
must be carried out. The present
economic condition is manifestly
,unjust and intolerable; the wealth
produced by the sweat of the brow
and the sweat of the brain of the
toilers is largely absorbed by a lot
of social parasites, the idle holders
of privilege, These parasites and
highwaymen skim off the rich cream
of •our common production and
leave the rest of us, the real pro-
ducers, nothing but the blue milk.
And the consequence is all our in-
voluntary poverty, with its un-
speakable suffering and misery, and
its clamping effects on life and
character. Society itself is largely
responsible for most of our crime
and our sin. Here lies
One Deep -Seated Cause
for our social unrest and discon-
tent, and- things will never be set-
tled until they are settled right,
and we must see to it that they
are settled right. The Christian
church and the Christian man must
stand stoutly foreconomic and in-
dustrial justice and equity, for a
square deal, for a fair division of
wealth, and above all, for equaI-
ity of opportunity for'every son of
man. It is an essential part of our
religion to take interest, vital inter-
est, and an active, efficient part
in every righteous movement to-
ward that end.
But just what ought the Christian
church to do in these matters?
As Christians, whether as a
church or as individual disciples of
Christ, we are primarily concerned•
not with policies of social reform
but with principles of 'social justice
and righteousness; not with me •
-
thods of economic or industrial pro-
cedure
but with the motives of
brotherly love. Therefore the
paramount social duty that con-
fronts the Christian church and the
Christian man is the enlargement
of sympathies and the realization of
fellowship among all men; the kind-
ling of brotherly love and the
spreading of it as by contagion
throughout humanity.
We may go on multiplying our
charities and beneficences until
they are like the sand on the sea-
shore -innumerable -and
They Will Not Ileal One Wound
in the body politic; they will not
bridge one of those chasms which
so widely divide men from their
fellowmen on every side; they will
not reconcile one bitternese or en-
mity which now inflames our too
common, strife. Mere charity and
beneficence without brotherly love,
especially patronizing and supercil-
ious beneficence, always antagon-
ize. These debauch the oonscionce
of the church as much as bribes do
-the conscience of legislatures. If a
man only give Iiberally the church
does not often stop to asic, "How
did you make the money you spend
so freely?" And if such charity and
beneficence come from wealth got-
ten by dishonest means they in-
furiate the popular mind. Even
at their best, they sap the man-
hood and destroy the self-respect of
those upon whom they are bestow-
ed,' And the world is mortal weary
of charity, but it is hungry -starves
ing-for downright,. genuine bro-
therly love; the love that expresses
itself first in common justice and
fairness, and then in honest, heart-
felt sympathy, mutual understand-
ing, and fellowship. That is the
only thing that can furnish the
basis and inspiration for the so-
lution of our modern social prob-
lems. -Rev. Charles D. Williams

Graft In Toronto.
A Toronto journalist has been making
an Investigation into various- forme of
graft" that are practised hero, and has
found some surprising illustrations:
Ono (Margo he snakes to against under-
takers whose chargoo,he says, are often
extortionate. A simple, though thorough-
ly decent funeral, ono be tondo up on the
following charges and still allow the
undertaker a good profit of $13:
Outside box ............. 5 00
Hearse ... ...... . .... 010
Embalming .... „ . ..,10 00
Shroud ......... 5 00'
Yet the charges oftenrun up over $100,
Not long ago a Toronto undertaker sent
in a bill for 5534, but in tits 0000 the
executors contested the bill in court and
had it out to $129. The casket, which 11,110
a fine one, had been charged at 5250,
though the undertaker adwi.aed in the
boxthat it had cost him only 0111. Prob-
ably ninety-nine out of hundred people
pay thecharge, even 1f extortionate, ra-
ther than appear to be mean about such
a matter, And this feelingis played up -
00.
It ie charged, too that nurses in the
institutions stand in with u,ideitnlcers
and receive from them gifts of cantles,
Gowers, theatre tickets eta., in rel aro
for which they give prompt notice el'
death, so that the undo ,,ker can gut
on the job before arival.
Some doctors are also :charged. w th
getting concessions from undertakers
Then there is the janitor's "graft.' This
flourishes in . -an apartment house where
from ten families up may reside, Na.
turally, each family would expect to pat-
ronise the grocer, or the butcher, or the
dairy they preferred, . Ent the janitor
recommends certain people. If hie advice
is not accepted the deliveries never coma

until ho gets his way. The yresumptioh
is that he gets his rake off."

her figure.
She can make a full meal out of
a nickle and a dish of leo cream.
