LESSON IV. --JAN. 24, 1909.
The Lame Man Healed—Acts 3; 1-26.
Acts 8; I -i6.
Commentary.—I ,Healing a lame man
(ve, 1-10). 1. Peter -ani John—The two
apostolict leaders; the oldest and the
youngest, probably, of the noble Twelve.
-Whedon. "Old friends and partners
in fishing on ,Galilee (Luke 5, 10); now
partnere in fishing for men. Different in
many ways, alike in principle, in devo-
tion', and in purpose." They went to the
palace, of Oaraphas on the night of the
betrayal (John 18, 15); to the sepulchre
on'ltlie morning of the resur'reetion (John
2t4'2-4); and are seen together again in
ibhn 21, 7; 20, 21.—Spence. These two
seem to have had a. peculiar intimacy
after Christ's resurrection, more than be-
fore. The reason might be that John
was mare compassionate to Peter on his
fall and repentance than any other of
the apostles, and more ready to restore
him in the spirit of meekness, which
made him very dear to Peter ever after.
—Com. Cum , The hour of prayer—The
Jaws had daily three hours of prayer—
the third. sixth and ninth, answering to
9 a.: no, 12 in. and 3 p. en. Peter and
John seem to have gone to the temple
apart from the others; perita)is to seek
an. opportunity of preaching to the peo-
ple, its well as to offer their supplica-
tions before (rod. 2. Lame, etc. --Now
about forty years old, a confirmed crip-
ple, not able to walk with crutches; but
carried like a child into 'the public plana
where he might be.,; incurable except
'by divine power. Gate...Beautiful—
This gate was on the east side, toward
Duvet. It was seventy-five feet high,
an sixty feet broad. and was nettle
chiefly of Corinthian brass, and overlaia
with gold and silver plates. l't was an
Inner agate leading from the court of the
(,'gentiles into the court of the womxn.
3. Jnto the temple --.Frond the outer
court of the Gentiles itno the court of
the women and the other courts of the
temple. .An altos --The giving of :elms
was a steered duty in connection with the.
religious offering, of the temple (Deet,
14,48, 29; 15, 7-11; 26, 12, 13).
Own power or holinese-The gaze of the
people seemed to say, "What vast pow-
er resides in these men!" or, "-What
holy men these must be, aialco God re-
wards them with such miraculous gifts!"
Peter, therefore, denies that he and John
possessed either such physical power, .or
such meritorious ability of the soul.—
Lange. 13. God of Abraham—After the
error had been exposed, the truth is set•
forth, as .in chap. 2. 15. Peter presents
no new religion, no new power, but
only the workings of the same God
who had done wonders for their ances-
tors. The Old Testament is the type and
foundation of the New. Hath glorified—•
Not by thin miracle only, but at his
baptism and transfiguration, by his
many mighty words, by his death, re-
surrection and ascension.—Cook. 'Ye
delivered—Like a wise physician, Peter
probed the wound deeply.—Lindsay. The
apostle was addressing some of the, very
people who had clamored for the blood
of Christ. To let Him go—Pilate knew
Teens was innocent and "had determin-
ed to release Him" (R. V.), but the
Iews demanded that He be crucified and
Pilate yielded to them.
14. Holy One—A title which had been
applied to Christ in the Old Testament
(Psa. 16:10). Just --See ebap. 7:52; 22:
14. "The word `just' here means inno-
cent, or one who was free from crime.
It denotes one who stands upright in
the eyes of the law."—Barnes. a mur-
deror.-••-Barabas (Matt. 27:21; Mark
155:7; Luke 2:1:10). 15. Prince of life—
The word rendered prince denotes pro-
perly a military leader or commander.
In Heb. 2:10 it is translated captain.
"The author of life in the fullest sense
in which the scriptures ascribe that pro-
perty to the Savior; namely, spiritual
or Christian life, and also natural or
physical life. He whom they deprived
of life was the One who gives life to
all." --Hackett. }lath raised—They were
fighting against Clod and could not but
be defeated; Jesus was alive from the
dead. witnesses --The disciples had seen
Christ after his resurreetion and they
spoke what they knew to be the truth.
16. his name- -There was no efficaey
in the mere name of Jesus, but the heal-
ing was done by his authority and.pow-
ea In this way the word "name" is of-
ten used by the Hebrews, especially
when sneaking of (god (see chap. 1:15;
4:12; hph. 1:21; Rev. 3:4), through
faith The connecting link between this
deed. and its divine Author wns their
faith. soundness --This word is not used
elsewhere in the New Testament. It
denotes freedom from any defeet. The
cure was a perfect one. of you all—You
are all witnesses of this and can judge
for yuorselves.
Questions.—Who were Peter and
John? Why were they together? What
hours were set apart daily by the Jews
for prayer? Where was the gate Beau-
tiful? Deeeribe it. When was the lame
man healed? Describe the }healing. How
were the people affected? Who address-
ed. them? 'Where? Who did be say
had healed the man? . How was the heal-
ing brought about? Why was Jesus
'called the Holy Oiiei The Just? The
Prince of life?
PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS.
4. Fastening his eyes—Not a mere
glance, but gazing upon him with al
that sympathy which lova teaches the
heart to feel for Christ's sake. ---Lange.
%Mb. John -Without interehange of
words Peter knew that he and John were
of one mind and agreed to nek for the
pure of this cripple, tt_esuring him that
their prayer would be answered. - Cook.
Cook on us—His words were intended to
illative unfortunate man in collecting his
tliougghts, and in looking upward. to the
apostles with hope and confideece.
s have heed --Obeyed Peter's direc-
tiori; to look, which gave evidence of
faith in its beginning„ according to his
wax after ithee. 0estates were sold (Acts
2; 45), and shows that the apostles had
not enriohed theinselres by the trea-
sures which passed through thele .hands.

Christ to heal, he accomplished tar
more ,than if Ohristt had assigned hint

In thus using it Peter embraced. the

—He walked in obedience to the com-
mand of the apostle; leaped to try the

vinced of the cure; praising God as the
testimony of .the man's expreesioms of

Giving and Taking.
1. Give what you have, I. Give your
prayers. Peter and John were men of
"prayer" (r. 1). Power for such service
as they rendered comes only with prayer
(Matte 17:21). When we cannot help
any other way we can pray.
2. Give your eyes. "Peter fattening
his eyes upon hint with John" (v. 4).
'Che apostles were on their way to the
place of prayer, but they saw the cripple
and stopped to give hila time, attention
and interest. They waited and looked
sympathetically into his face. They saw
that he was hopeless, helpless, shut out
from worship, and poor (v, 2). We can
train our eyes. We may learn to dis-
cern the needs of those about us.
3. Give your lips. "Peter said" (vr.
4, 6). He gave words of encou.ragemeat-
ef faith, of command. Kind words are
worth more than money. We should
"know how to speak a word. in season
to hila that is weary" (Tea. 50: 4).
4, Give in his name. "In the name of
,Testis Christ" (v. 6). "His name.through
faith in his mane, bath made this man
'strong" (v. 16). To give in Jesus' mune,
you must' have his confidence. Peter
and John had received their commission
from the Leal. You must not only
trust him, but he most be able to trust
you,
IT, 'Ta.ke what (;sod hale. Before you

when ye pray, believe that ye receive
theta, and ye. shall have them" (Mark
11: 24).
1, Desire. "Laid daily at the gate"
(v. 2). The beggar desired- alms. He
was laid when they could be given.
He Sesired heaiing. Ile obeyed the
words of the apostles (vs. 6, 7). There
are some things Cod never gives until
we desire them. He will never save one
who sloes not want to be saved. He
gives exceeding above all our desire, but
not until "the desire worket.h in us"
(Eph. 3: 20, 21),
2. Pray. "A. certain naris .. netted"
(vs. 2, 3). Desire is but the beginning
of the obtaining of blessing. 'God says,
"Ask .rue coentnastd ye me" (lea.
