TRUMBULL, Litt. D. PROMOTION IN THE KINGDOM Sunday, May 4—Matthew 19:30 to 20:28. Golden Text The Son of Man icame not to ba ministered unto, but to administer and to give His life a ransom for* many,—"(Matt, 20:28,) “Many that are first shall be last; and the lust shall be first,” With this word our Lord introduces His parable of the laborers ip the vine­ yard, and He closes ft with the same saying. It is not an easy parable to inter­ pret, and commentators differ as to its meaning. It describes the King­ dom of Heaven. A householder: goes our early in the morning <to employ workmen for his vineyard. he engages them, agreeing to pay each the usual day’s wages (“a pen­ ny,” or about 15 cents) and sends them to work. About 9 o’clock in the morning he sees other men standing idle, offers them employ­ ment in ‘the vineyard, promises to pay them whatever is right, and they accept, and start work. At noon, and at 3 o’clock in the afternoon, the same thing occurs with still other workers. Finally tvhen the working day "is almost over, about 5 o’clock in the afternoon, he finds still other men unemployed, engages them with the promise to p'ay “whatever is right,” and they set to work. Evening has come and the em­ ployer directs his paymaster to call the workers together and .pay them off, beginning with the last. The men who started work, “about the eleventh hour,” or at 5 o’clock in the afternoon, “received every man a penny,” or a day’s wages, The men who had been employed early in the morning, noting this, expect­ ed to get a. good deal more, but “they likewise received every man a penny.” They protested. “These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden- and heat of the day.” The employer reminded them that he was doing them no injustice; they had -agreed with him for a day’s wages, and he was paying them. He had every right to do what he would with his own money. “Is thine eye evil, because I am good? So the'last shall be first, and the first last; for many be call­ ed, but few chosen.” What did it mean? It was cer­ tainly very unequal labor for uni­ form pay. The last to come in were on the same basis' as the first, and the first had no advantage over the last. Old Matthew Henry believed that this parable is “to show that the Jews should be first called into the vineyard, and many of them should come at the call; but at length the Gospel should be preached to the Gentiles, and they should receive it, and be admitted to equal privileges and advantages with Jews; should be fellow citizens with the saints, which the Jews, even those of them that believed, would too very much disgusted at, but without reason.” Again, he makes a more general application that “God is debtor to no man," Perhaps it is a parable bringing out largely the great Bible- message of grace, or God’s willing­ ness and purpose to deal with men, not' according to His boundless mercy and love. As the Lord Jesus now journeys with His disciples to Jerusalem, He tells thorn plainly what avails Him there; that He shall be betrayed un­ to the chjef priests and the scribes, they shall condemn Him to death, they shall deliver Him to the Gen­ tiles (Romans) to mock, scourge and crucify; and the third day 1-Ie shall rise again. This whs in March of A. D, 30, the last year of our Lord’s earthly life. It was -a. few weeks later that He was crucified, And this was the third time He had plain­ ly predicted I-Iis death and resurrec­ tion. The first timo was just after the confession of His Deity .by Petei’ and the other disciples (Matt, 16: 21-28). The second time was'short­ ly after the first, in Galilee, after the transfiguration (Matt. 17:22, 23). It is significant that the pre­ diction was made three times, the divine number, yet none, of the dis­ ciples seemed really to understand or believe. God has to be very pa­ tient with us all. The mother of James and John came to hrist with a request that made the other ten disciples indig­ nant when they heard of it. She asked that her two sons might' sit on His right and left hand in Ilis Kingdom. (She whs ambitious, as many mothers are. Truly, the Lord said, “Ye know not what ye ask,” And He asked ‘the two men whether they were able to drink of the cup that He must drink of, and be baptized with His baptism. Readily they answered, “We are able.” Again they could not have known what it meant, but the Lord quiet­ ly predicted that they should drink of His cup and be baptized with His baptism. He was foretelling their persecution and suffering. James was the first one of the apostles to be killed (Acts 12:2.) Then the Lord showed them that the secret of greatness in the King­ dom was humble service, “Even as the Son of man came not to be min­ istered unto, but to minister, and to give His life a ransom for many.” It is sometimes .said that our Lord never said that He died for our sins, but ‘that this was a theological theory invented by Paul or others long af­ terward. This word of our Lord’s answers that ignorant falsehood. The risen and glorified Lord reveal­ ed to Paul the truth about the sub­ stitutionary atonement, even as He gave it t'o His disciples here, 'and at the last supper when He said of the cup: “This is My iblood of the New Testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.” (Matt. 26:28.) district news Mr, James T, -Smith, of Hengall, has been appointed chief of police at Kincardine.
