Amun. -British Weekly. 'Sunday School Lemon March 4, 1923 Lesson Title -Jesus Teaching in the Temple. Lesson Passage -Luke 20 : 19-26; 21 : 1-4. Golden Text -Luke 20 : 23. This lenSun in also to be found in Matt. 22:13-22 and Mark 12:13-17. There the spies spoken of in this chapter are called '"The Pharisee; and Herodians." They differed in opinion about tribute money. The law of Moses was, that a stranger should not be set over the Jews as a king (Deut. 17-155. Herod, who had received the kingdom of Judea by ap- pointment of the Romans, held that the law of Moses referred only to a voluntary choke of a king, and did not refer to a necessary submission, where they had been overpowered by force. They, the Herodians, supposed therefore that it was lawful in such cases to pay tribute to a foreign prince. This minion was, however, extremely unpopular among the Jews, especially the Pharisees. Their join- ing •together in order to catch Jesus is p case which often occurs his- tory, namely, a coalition of two hos- tile parties with a view of crushing a third, dangerous to both. If Jesus should answer in the affirmative His influence with the people would be de- etreyed. If he should reply in the negative he would declare himself 'a rebel against the Roman governor. Verse -19-'"The chief of priests and the scribes perceived that He had spoken this parable against them." The parable of the vineyard came home to their hearts and consciences iiintexaaperated them. Two feelings mingled within their breasts - fear- ing and seeking. In their rage they sought to lay hands on Jesus and it was not their fear of God or of His south that restrained them. It was only bemuse they feared the people that they did not seize him and kill him. They must reach him some other way than by causing a tumult. They, therefore, consulted together and outlined a plan by which they hoped to catch him by guile. The plot they laid was to result in Jesus being handed over to the power and authority of the Governor (verse 201. Jesus before this had told his disci- ples he would he delivered unto the Gentiles (chap. 1R:32) so no, plotting could accomplish any thing that was not already decreed to come to pass in the earthly life .of Jesus.. The spies feigned themeelves just men. It is no unusual thing for had men to pretend to be good, even going so far as to be prominent churchmen to gain some advantage in life. Satan even, can transform himself into an angel of light (2 Con 11-14). These men approached Christ and engaged lain, in conversation. They were very generous in their style of addrees 'Mester, we know that thou sayest and tenchesrightly' (verse 21 ). Flattery is ever a false mode of speech, yet it is often the eneane whereby shallow people are caught; and the point sought is gained. Here, however, Jesus understood their de- sign he manifested forth his Omni - set nee. "Neither acceptest thou the person of any, but teachest the way of God truly.' They epeak fair words hut the intention is 'Nitre. Having ap- proached him with these smooth SA- sertiong they suddenly hurl at Him the question, "Is it /awful for us to give tribute unto Caesar or no?" hop- ing to catch Him unawares. Shonld Jews. the descendants of Abrahern, pay tribute to Caesar, a Roman Gov- ernor? (The name Caesar, after the firne of Julius Caeser, became errin- neon to all the emperors, as Pharaoh was the common name of all the kings of Egypt. The Caesar that. reigned at this time was Tiberius).. Their pride was sorely hurt at hav- ing to pay these taxes and so they ask, "la 'e lawful?r' But He per- ceived their craftiness and said unto them, "Why tempt ye me?" (verse 23). They set a trap, but as often happens it did not work as it was in- tended it should. Jesus saw through their scheming and reproved them by aching why they were trying to lead him into a dittieulty. He called fur a piece of money and they handed hires penny, a Roman coin bearing the image of Caesar on• its face. They saw at once that the trappers tied been trapped and as Ile proceed- ed in His talk they were more and mere astunished at His way of deal- ing with them, and they had the aenee to keep silent. It was an or- dinary coin He asked for, Buchan they used in their business transactions It was furnished by Catetar for their cenvenienee „in business transactions, itad au he says, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's." Fur the privileges of trade and the rights uf justice they were dependent on the pr..teetion uf Catetur and should therefore pay taxes to him. In holy thinge God was their head and king, tea Caesar, so they should wurehie Him &dune and pay their temple tax • "Render to Guel the things that are They could not fijal anything in Ills weide that would stir up the people or permit ef their laying un accuea- Oen hefure the Governor.

York section of Brooklyn is that ccnducted by the Presbyterial Home Hoard at 2930 Pitkin avenue. Mrs. Ida A. Birigener is in charge of the work, which is carried on in an inadequate rented store with practi- cally no equipment. Indeed, Mrs. Bingener says that a few chairs, benches and tables --all of them in various stages of disrepair and iany of them badly broken -an old ano, two book cases and an old desk form Inc entire equipment. But. with this battered array she manages to hold the' interest a .the children of the neighborhood, and the religious story papers, such as The Sunbeam and The Forward, which she hands out. prove very attractive to the little folks. These papers arc back num- bers, donations from various church- es. One of the most interesting recent meetings was held for goy scouts the day following the Hebrew any of a- tonement. The question of the lads led to a talk by the missionary on Christ as the great atonement, and she expected that her plain speaking would anger many of the boys so that they would „leave the mission. But in this Case no trouble arose and no lads left. Work among these boys is becoming more and more en- couraging. One boy who has been coming faithfully for about a year rushed in one day breathlessly ask- ing for a Bible for his brother. The brother was going to sea that day. and he wanted to have a Bible in Jewish and English. The mission had 'none on hand, so the brother was willing to take an English Bible. Word has come hack since that the young man is pleased with his pur- chase and is reading both Testaments earefunee Now the younger lad has asked for a Bible also and has prom - to read it. -The Continent.
