Of it the palaee where they might sit down Geikie says, "Prom the skin itslowly to the feast with Abraham, Isaac and ate its way through the tissues to the Jacob, they ,were pretence ethrust ut out, ban. bones and joints, and even to the. mar- row, rotting the whole body piecemeal.

The hair falls from the head and eyebrows; the nails loosen and decay, and drop off; joint after joint of finger and toes shrink up, and slowly fall away; the gums are absorbed, and the teeth dis- appear; the nose, the eyes, the tongue. and the palate are slowly consumed ; and finally the wretched victim sinks into the earth and disappears. - Thom- son. The leprosy is also contagious, hereditary, widely spread over the earth, incurable and insidious. It is an emblem of sin. The leper came to Jesus, thus acknowledging his condition and his need, and desire of help. Worshipped him -Mark tells us that he kneeled down before Jesus, and Luke says he "fell on his face." It was an act of re- verence, and certainly an act of en- treaty. He had come to know of Jesus through the great works He had wrought. If thou wilt -The leper did not doubt Jesus' ability to oure trim, but he did doubt his willingness. It was a question in his mind whether Jesus would be willing to help one whose vera presence was defiling. Thou cant make me Olean -Here is an unqualified ex- pression of faith. Incurable though his disease was known to be, yet the leper believed he stood in the presence of one who could cleanse him. 3. Jesus... Touched him The leper's touch meant ceremonial defilement and possibly the communciation of the leprosy, but Jesus touched him, for no uncleanli- ness could attach itself to him, no lep- rosy could stand before omnipotent pow- er. "The touch would be an optical de- monstration of the actual transit of healing virtue from the curer to the cured," -Morison. I will; be thou clean -This was an answer to the Liv- er's doubt, "if thou will, and to lees faith, "thou cans't." We may try to 'im- agine the feelings of the diseased man upon hearing these gracious words. 4. Tell no man -In some cases Jesus bade those who were healed to tell it, in others He bade them to tell no one. Mark say's the leper blazed it abroad so that the crowds were attracted to that extent that Jesus was greatly inconven- ienced. It has been suggested that the Master wished to select the time, r''ace and witnesses of the testimony to His miracles. Shaw thyself the time, place the priest was entrusted the reseeeei- bility of deciding whether ono had the leprosy or not, Explicit directions are given covering the case in Lev. 13. 14. Offer the gift -Two live birds were to be used. One was to be killed a•^d its blood sprinkled upon the person p ese-rt- ing the offering and the other bird was to be set free. Other offerings were to be made later. See Lev. 14: 1-32. Forf a testimony The people would know of it. The priest would officially pro- nounce the leper cleansed. The tis+i many would show that Jesus kept the law. There was no fear in Jesus about His work bearing the closest inspec : on. So it is with the leprosy of sin. Jesus cures it completely. 11.

"All things work together (Rom. for good to them that love God" 2S.) It is ill man's power to prove it so by experience. That a soldier, a slave owner, could be sympathetic; a Roman ruler beloved by the people he ruled; a pagan prove philanthropic; one so hon- ored be so humble proves for all time that a man may mount above his circum- stances, turn hindrances to helps, change stumbling blocks to stepping stones, and rise to take his place in glory. Reason from analogy (vs. 900). The centurion reasoned that, as he, -a man "under authority," had absolute domin ion over a hundred men, and a word from him would compel instant olielere front any of them, so the, great in His realm, would.be equally powerful. B.'asfining, from analogy }a Biblical. If we are iiMing to give to our children, God is more willing tp give to us (Luke 11, 13). Be humble. The centurion was a leun- ble man. Be loved. the lowly. He w.as free from national prejudices (Luke 7, 3, 5). IIe said honestly, "I am not wor- thy" (v. 8). The lower we lie in humil- ity the higher we rise in prayer. Study the prayers of the great apostle. He who thought himself less than the least of all saints (Eph. 3, 8) knew how to pray for all saints (lSplt, 1, 16; 3, 14-21; Phil. 1, 3, 4; •Col. I, 9). Moses, the law- giver and leader, prophet and poet, yet the meekest man who ever lived, is the man who faithfully pleads for others ane prevails, There Have "great faith" (v. 10). are degrees of faith (Roni. 12, 6) . To the disciples who qquestioned why they could not cast out the dumb demon from the noblemen's child, Jesus said, "lie- crtuso of your unbelief" (Matt. 17, 20). To the nobleman, discouraged by the failure of the disolples, He said, "11 thou eanst believe, all things are possible to hien that believet}h" (Mark 9, 23, 24). To the disciples in the "great tempest," to Peter, walking on the tumultuous waves, He said, "0 thou of little faith" (Matt. 8, 26; 14, 31). To this centurion, with his humble, unfaltering confidence, lie said, "I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel" (v. 10). 1. The cen- turion had not had religious advantages. 2, He believed Jesus could do great things, 3. IIe depended wholly twat Clhrist. 4, He was humble. 5.
