ANALYSIS,
I: Ti1E BAPTISM, 3; 1347.
TI. 'rsn TEnxrTAvioN, 4: 1-11.
INTRODUCTION-- The Gospels aye
practically silent on the events of the
life of Jesus between his birth and
Public ministry. The only incident.
given is that which describes his jour-
ney. to Jerusalem, and his conversation
with the doctors of the law when he
was about twelve, '
I; THE BAPTISM, 3: 1347.
V. 13. The pi.aching of John the
Baptist had created a ;refound impres-
sion on the people of the land, It was
felt .that a new religious leader had
appeared, end that the promise of God
was now to be fulfilled. Jesus would
naturally hear of this great revival,
and he decided that he must take some
part in it, either to show his sympathy
with it, or -else to carry it farther on.
Accordingly he goes to the Jordan
where John was baptizing crowds of
people, and he presents himself as a
candidate.
V. 14. However, John seems to feel
that there was something about this
man that made him different from all
others, and he therefore hesitated.
Baptism to him was the symbol of
repentance, and John did not think
that Jesus belonged to this class of
sinners. He, therefore, opposes the
request of Jesus.
V. 1a. Jesus urges Join to baptize
him; but from this we must not infer
that Jesus was conscious of sinfulness,
or that he wished to confess his need
of repentance. Jesus knew n'o sin,
neither was guile found in his mouth.
The reason which he gives is that this
is a part of the righteous plan laid
down for him. Jesus is one with his
brethren, he has come to seek and save
them, and to do so he must take part
in all that is common to Pian. This is
an instance of the contplet.; self -dedi-
cation and -self-sacrifice of Jesus. This
is also an illustration of the law that
lie who would have others must be one
with them. It was "a sacrament of
messianic love."
V. 16. At this moment o£ self -sur-
render, Jesus receives the recognition
of divine favor. The heavens open
and the spirit descends like a dove. in
outward form. We are not to say that
the spirit heel never visited Jesus be -
ore, but now comes in fulness and
equips him for the great mission of
the Messiah for which he has been
anointed.
17. 17, The voice from heaven ex-
presses the entire satisfaction which
God has with his Son. Jesus is now
conscious of his great work. Hence-
forth the way is clear before hint, and
he will not turn to the right or left.
However, he must pass through the
testing, •wI/ich conies to all those who
dedicate their lives to noble service.
This is what we have to study in the
Temptation. In the Gospel of John we
find further and important teaching
en the subject of the baptism. See
ch. 1.
II- THE TEMPTAT.IoN, 4: 1-11.
Jewish officials, and work along with
then, But this he ;rejects.
VA:. G, 7. In the last temptation Jesus
is carried in vision to the top of a.
high mountain, and sees the glory of
the word, chiefly the marvels of the
Roman Empire, which has its soldiers
hi every land, which is able to dictate
laws to mankind, and whose force none
can withstand, Jesus wonders whe-
ther he might not work in peace with
Route. Instead of antogonizing the
Emperor, could he not come to terms
with this mighty ruler, and use their
help to spread his own teaching of the
kingdom? But this would be treason
against God. He cannot use the forces
of the world. He must rely on spirit-
ual influence. He must trust the
Father.
Prince of Wales
Plans Lion Hunt
Jungle Adventure and Hun-
ter's Life For Six
Weeks
London.—Plans are now, maturing
for the Prince c.f Wale's' African tour,
-which begins cerly in the Neve Year.
Formalities are to be dispensed with
as far as possi'b a, and the royal trav-
eller will live as a hunter among the
hunters, sitting at the sante camp
fires and sharing the same food.
'rico democracy of the jungle will
claim for hiin six glorious weeks, and
in shorts and open -neck shirt he will
seek to bag those animals—the ele-
phant, the rhinoceros, the buffalo, and
the lion—which eluded his gun during
the last year's visit, dramatically cur-
tailed by the news of the King's ill-
ness.
"The Prince's program will be a
very elastic one," said a member of
the Prince's household recently, "and
it is impossible now to say precisely
what his movements will be.
"Captain Denys Finch -Hatton,
brother of the Earl of Winchilsea,
who is a big -game hunter, and who
conducted the Prince's big -game hunt-
ing last year, will again be in charge."
Provisional arrangements have been
made for the Prince to sail from
Southampton for South Africa on the
Union -Castle liner, Kenilworth, on
January 3.
At Capetown he will stay at Gov-
ernment House as the guest of the
Earl of Athlone and Princess Alice,
Countess of Athlone. This is a long
overdue visit, as the Prince would
have spent last Christmas with them
had it not been for the King's illness,
He will remain about a fortnight
in South Africa before proceeding to
the lion country in East Africa.

How far this reaction was due. to com-

Great Britain and
The Slave Trade
"It was not until 183 that the Bri-
tish Parliament reached the point of
prohibiting slavery in British Pos-
sessions. Slavery continued, however;
for many years in other countries; in
the United States it was not filially
abolished until 1863," writes Mr. Har-
old Cox in the "Sunday Times" in a
journey from the Cape to Cairo he
will do by air aitd how much by road.
They believe he will travel as far
northward as possible by motor -car.
V. I, This is one of the very signifi-
cant events in the life of Jesus, and
has at all times greatly interested
Thoughtful students of the Bible, Jesus
had learned at the Baptism that he
was to fulfill the office of the Messiah,
and the question inevitably arose as
to the way in which he was to accom-
plish this. He goes out into the soli-
tude of the desert to think over the
matter, and then temptations gather
round the subject of his mission.
These three temptations that come rep-
resent the different ways by which he
might carry on his task. But they are
all finally rejected, because they are
not according to the will of God. Jesus
has, as lits guiding -star, to do the will.
of his Father.
Vs. 3, 4. He is tempted to turn the
stones into bread, and this may mean
that it was suggested to hint that he
should be a social reformer, bringing
bread to the hungry, and Healing to
the sick, reforming society. It would
be a noble enough work far some, but
not for hint, since he could not be
satisfied with giving material help.
Man cannot live by bread alone. He
knows that the soul of swan is of in-
finite value, and Jesus must try to
bring, men back to God, in whom alone
we find eternal rest.
Vs. 4, 5. The second temptation is
usually understood as a suggestion
that he should deehismiraculous gifts
to impress the people, that he hould go
forth as a wonder -worker, and thus
-compel the admiration of the world.
It is perhaps possible that the pinnacle
of the temple here stands for the en-
tire system of the old priesthood, and
that Jesus was wondering whether he
could make a compromise with the
