THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time—,January, A.D. 30. Place -The home of Mary and Martha, in the village of Bethany, which is over the ridge. on the eastern slope of the Mount of Olives, opposite Jerusalem. "Martha, therefore, when she heard that Jesus was conning, went and met him; but Mary still sat in the house. Martha there- fore said unto Jesus, Lord, if Thou hadst been here, my broth- er had not died. And even now I know that, whatsoever Thou shalt ask .of God, God will give Thee." - The characteristics of those two sisters are evident. Mary, the quieter of the two, and the more meditative, remains in the home while Martha, as soon . as she hears that the Lord is corn- ing, goes out to meet Him. Mary knows that whatever Christ might ask of God, He would grant which means that she believes Christ, even now, can raise her brother from the dead. Resurrection and Life "Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again. Martha saith unto Him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrec- tion of the last day. Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life; he that believe% on me, though he die, yet shall he live." The. word "resurrection" is to be taken in its widest sense, so that it is true to say that life results from resurrection, and resurrection from life, to the be- liever. He mist share Christ's fife in order to have the power within him of the reser:eetion from the grave t, th endless life, ar,d by sharing Christ's risen life now in faith be is in fact Then with Christ, and independent of every future change death of the 'oody itself, anc' shall he kept from endless death. Believing in. Christ 'And whosoever liveth and be- lieveth on me shall never die. Be- Iievest thou this? She saith unto Him, Yea, Lord, I have believed that Thou art the Christ, the son of God, even he that cometh into the world." Note particularly how Christ seems to emphasize, above everything else, the im- portance of believing in Him. Compassion for Mary "And when she had said this, she went away, and called Mary hersister secretly, saying, The Teacher is here, and calleth thee. And' she, when she heard it, arose quickly, and Went unto hint. Mary therefore, when she came where Jesus was, and saw hien, fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my beoter had not died." No doubt, Mary and Martha had continually talked about the Lord's coming to the house, before Lazarus had died, and had both concluded that, should the Lord come, their broth- er would be healed. This may tie - count for the fact that; her words to Christ are identical with those of her sister; "When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping who came with her, he groaned in thespirit, and was troubled, and said, "Where have ye laid, him? They say unto, him, Lord, come and sec. Jesus wept." The term "to weep" does not in- dicate, like the word weeping in verse 33, sighs, but tears; it is the expression of a calm and gentle grief. Victory Over Death "Jesus therefore again groan- ing in himself conical to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it, ,Jesus saith,, Taco ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time the body deeayeth; for he hath been dead four days. Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that if thou believedst, thou should see the glory of God?" These words, while addres- sed first to Martha, because she is the one who raised the objection, must surely have been uttered for the benefit of all who were near and were spoken to remind those who had confessed their faith in Hini that in ordering the stone to be removed He was only initiating an act which would re- veal the glory of God, and should thus persuade them to do what he had commanded them to do. Jesus Gives Thanks "So they took away the stone, and Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank Thee that Thou heardest me. And I knew that thou Nearest me always; But because of the multitude that standeth around I said it, that 'they may believe that Thou didst send me." In Christ's calm con- sciousness of His unity with God, of fulfilling the Father's mission and purpose, He thanks the Fath- er for the opportunity given Him of setting forth the glory of God. Symbol of Redemption And when he had thus spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Laz- arus, come forth. He that was dead Caine forth, bound hand and foot with grave -clothes; and his face was bound about"with a nap - 'kin. Jesus said unto them, Loose him, and let•hini go." The simple grandeur, brevity and force of this resurrection call corresponds with the mighty effect. The great voice or shout, from One who was wont to speak so gently and quiet- ly, thrilled the heart of every listener. The significance of this mighty deed we cannot over-esti- mate, for it is on the one hand, a profoundly significant symbol of Christ's redemptionand on the other, a signal testimony to His right and power to redeem.

An Experiment In Feeding Hogs Vitamin Deficiency Dis- cussed by The Winnipeg Free Press The current vitamin craze may be strongly tinged with faddism, but the new interest that is being aroused in the life-giving quali- ties of our foods is all to the good none the less. We arediscovering at last that our health depends not on how much we eat, but what we eat. The havoc which vitamin de- ficiency can wreak .wan recently shown very vividly in Texas with an experiment. in pig breeding. There is a lesson for humans to learn from these experiments. During the height of the dust bowl years; two litters of pigs in separated communities were born blind, The authorities set out to discover the reason. Experiments were conducted in hog diet. One diet was devised which was com- pletely devoid of Vitamin A. Sows fed on this diet farrowed pigs which were not only blind but which had no eyes. In one experinient, a sow be- came too weak to stand. She was given one dose of cod liver oil. In eight hours she was standing again. When her pigs were born they were blind but had rudimen- tary eyes. The experiments were carried a step further. The pigs which were born eyeless were interbred and put en vitamin A diets. In every,case their offspring had sound eyes and eyesight. The conclusion which can be dram from this experiment is clear. Many of the defeats in our bodies can be often attributed to the diets of our mothers. The - mothers of today who take care of their diets are more likely to produce babies with better bodies, sounder organs and a chance' for- a healthier life than those who regard modern .science as new- fangled nonsense. Planes Clear Seas Of Magnetic Mines The Air Ministry released a three-year-old secret recently in telling ow Wellington bombers helped clear the seas around Brit- win's coast of • the German mag- netic mines which once were Hit- ler's:"secret weapon" and which. tha•etntened the supply lines to these islands in the last three months of 1999.
