III, TRU RESULTS OP Bis se iearoN, 46-49 INTRODUCTION --•With the'13th chap- ter we enter upon the ascond.part of Luke's history of the apoato a age, Which is concerned with the carrying of the gospel to peoples other than Jews mid With the part taken by Paul, Luke's hero, Ic THE INITIATION, 1-5, Time is the account of one of the most imporbant movement ever under- taken by •the church; it was the he - ginning of theworld mission of Chris- tianity fulfilling Christ's word in Mlatt, ' 28:19. The following things may be noted in oonnection with these five venose: (1) The new departure starts; not from the mother ehurchat Jerusalem, but from the church at Antioch, which is a self -.d'etermini'ng community, that f eere justified in orbgrnating so im- portant a step. (2) Pt was due not to the direct action of 'the' officials at Jerusalem, 'but to five pr'oph'ets and teachers men- tioned' in entioned''in v. 1. (3) The short passage ehows that these men realized. the deep signifi- Dance of their action. They remained long in committee seriously canvassing the situation. By prayer, fasting and deep meditation they sought the direc- tion of God. - It is the Holy Spirit which is now leading them to this de- cisive action. (4) There is an act of separation, when they laid their hands on two of them and sent them forth. This lay- ing on of har-':ls was familiar to the Jews, and here it probably was the impressive outward sopnbol of the sanction of the church, Some suppose this, was the definite ordination of Bar- nabas and 'Saul. If it was their ori- Motion, then it. would seem as if no apostle was present at the time. If it was merely the det'ignation to a new mission, the symbol of laying on of hands must have been weed for other purposes than ordination to an official ministry. II. THE PLAN 0I' CAMPAIGN, 13-15. The two men select Mark as their companion and direct their course first to the island of Cyprus the home, of Barnabas. Two places are mentioned as the ecene of their preaching, and; one striking example is given of Paul's deo'sion in action. vs. 9-10. V 13. From Cyprus they go to the south coast of Asia Minor and reach' Perag in Pamphilia, but carry on, no mise'ilo'n service. Some change seems to have come over their plans. Per- hopethey had intended to proceed to Ephesus', a large centre of population, and Mary may not have approved. of the journey intd-the interior. But the difference, whatever it was, did not affect the friendly relation between Barnabas and Saul V. 14. His journey to Antioch has been the theme of much discussion.

It was grey dusk when we came on deck again, and I was sur- prised at the number of boats which had gathered at the ground. There were boats from Campbeltown and Torbert, and as far south as Ballan- tree, and drifting about on the fringe of the fleet, were the buyers' boats from Glasgow and Ardrossan. These boats follow the herring fleet, and rush the catches up to Greenock, Fairlie, and Ardrossan, in the "wee sma' 'oors," to 'catch the Glasgow Market. After darkness had fallen, the skip- per of our boat gave orders for full steam ahead, and we ploughed through the waves making for the stretch of water between the Bute shore and Gook of Arran.

Paul now delivers in the syn- agogue a missionary address intended for the Jews. It is natu:ratly the mer- est outline, but contained the prin- ciples which Paul Bret forth, and Luke must often have heard similar ser- mons at a later time.
