A* School Wesson TRUMBULL, Litt. mends the first their faithfulness, and makes each $ “ruler over many things,” calling ujh on them to “enter into the joy of th3J Lord.” Other Scriptures propiiB# that faithful believers are to be given; responsibilities of rulership wheiftha; Lord returns f£Rev. 1:6), as this pai’-r able teaches. Then comes the report of the one; talent man: “Lord, I knew thee thatj thou art a hard man, reaping whey# thou hast ot sown. . ‘ wlxree thou hast not strawed; and 1 was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth; lo, there tliou hast that is thine.” ’The Lord taken him at his own word, and wixh, sev-» erity and satire shows that the very; excuse the man has given was a goodU reason for putting the money to worls^L so that it might have been returned " V with interest, The insincerity of the man is evident from his report. Ex­ cuses for not doing our duty are us­ ually insincere, evading the real is-v sue. • J The money is taken .from the one- talent man and give to the ten-tal­ ent man, at the lord’s direction. Then comes the statement so quoted and misunderstood applied: “For ’unto every Jia th shall be given, and have abundance; but from hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.” People quota- this as though it meant that persons who, have little ones more. .ing to be something very different. The man who “had” was one who* “had” because he was faithful and diligent, and because of this he shall be given still more. The one that “had not” was lacking because o^' his sinfulness • and ' slothfulness, D. two servants fotf; and gatheringIt is still the Olivet Discourses, in Which the Lord Jesus Christ is ans­ wering the question of His disciples (Matt. 24;3) as to His return, pr second coming, and the end of the age. The first part of His answer was covered in last week’s lesson. There are some who say that the Lord Himself, while He was here on earth, expected to come back again soon... Readers of the Bible who make this mistake quite overlook the plain teachings to the contrary, as when the Lord says in this parable of the talents that the “man travell­ ing into a. far country” who delivered various amounts to his .servants, did not return until “after q long time.” Five talents, two talents, and one were the amounts entrusted to- the servants in this parable, “To every man according to his several ability.’ The idea that all men are equal in opportunity or ability has no founda­ tion in the Scriptures, which repeat­ edly teach otherwise. The five-talented man accepted the stewardship as one of real re­ sponsibility, traded with the talents and doubled the amount, making it ten talents. A talent of silyer was equivalent to about $1,950; a talent of gold, about $29,374.50. It was no small amount, therefore, that was entrusted to these men. The two- talent man, by legitimate trading, al­ so doubled his principal. The one-talent man “went and dig- __ __ _____ _________ , ged in the earth, and hid his Lord’s''therefore what he already had he de­ money.” Let iis be careful not to make the .common mistake of speak­ ing of “wrapping youi’ talent in a napkin.” The Bible never uses this expression, perhaps because of the fact that’ in gold or silver the..bulk of a talent would make it impossible to wrap it in a napkin. It was a pound, in another parable (Luke 19: J.l-26), that was put away in a napkin. We must remember that this en­ tire parable is a teaching concerning the Kingdom of Heaven, in which the .human lord is a figure for the Lord Jesus Christ, and the whole setting and result show that the “goods” or “talents” entrusted to these servants stood fox’ spiritual op­ portunities and stewardships. We must be careful to guard 'against making a mistaken application to mere faithfulness. A vocetous man, or miser, may be very careful in us­ ing and multiplying the money that he has; he may not be slothful at all, but dilli'gent; but this would not bring him at the Lord’s .return any. such commendation or promotion as this parable teaches. The Lord in the parable com-, I constantly; or mis- one that lie shall him that. through no fault' of their own, little are-certain to lose the they hav.e, while the fortunate of wealth,are sure to get still The context shows the niean- served to losfe, as he did. Worst of all, lie is cast into “outer darkness.”" In the opinion of judgment that concludes the chapter, the ations as' such come before the Son of man when He lias come again to this earth and is sitting upon the throne of His glory. He separates, them,- on the right and on the left, a.ccord-r ing to their treatment of “one of the least of these, My Brethren.” It is believed that “brethren” here- refers to the Jewish remnant, Christ brothers aftei- the fish, who will have been preaching1 the Gospel of the Kingdom 'throughout the world tOAall nations Curing the time-^.^ of the great tribulation that jiis); precedes the Lord’s return. SomeC nations will persecute these Jews to- death; other nations will receive them kindly and helpfully. These nations ai'e evidently to have a place of blessing in the Lord’s Kingdom on earth; to the other nations, which have rejected God’s messengers the' Jews,-the King will say: “Depart from Me, ye cursed, into everlasting; fire.” EXAMINATION DATES The time tables for the annual De­ partmental Examinations for 1930 are now in hand and will no doubt prove of interest to many of our readers.
