over,
AD hour before sunset, Testis and
the other ten disciples left .Bethany
and walked through the eager •crowds
towards .Mark's house.
Jesus walked ahead alone. He saw
the snio'ke of the sacrifice of burnt
offering in the Temple courts, and
'He knew it was an empty ritual for
most of the mltitude. He San 'the
white and gold of the Temple build-
ing, but !He knew it was air empty
glory.
The Ten sate nothing. They quar-
relled about their places at the table.
Judas and the Judas' spirit was
among them' That was why they
quarrelled.
It was sundown 'when Jesus turned
up the street toMark's house, and
as if by magic the whale city emptied
its streets into the houses where the
Passover would be eaten•,
Supper .was ready niter they arriv-
ed. The disciples 'rushed up the out-
side stairs and into their places.
Judas edged into the seat of honor
beside Jesus. John sat on the other
side of Jesus, The other 'ten scrambl-
ed into such seats as they could find,
—acid Peter, slow moving Peter,
found himself 'the last to sit down,
with only the 'last seat at the table
left for him—the thirteenth.
But Teter was first Mien Jesus
came to wash their feet,—and .sitting
opposite Jesus, he was able to talk
with , (Him more than the others. It
was a silent feast, the twelve were
ashamed of their actions and Jesus
was 'sad. It was no easy matter to
institute a New Sacrament when His
followers were so far from His
Sp!rit !
Thus they ate the. Passover, Then
the New Passover was ordained, a
symbolic memorial, the Lord's Supper.
!Judas did not retrain long at the
table,—(just long enough for appear-
ances. IHe had pretended to be sur-
prised w^lien Jesus had said that He
was to be betrayed, He did not ex-
pect such a straight answer when he
asked "Is it 'I?" He had received the
token of friendship (the sop) from
his Master's 'hand—and them he went
out into the night.
The streets ware empty except for
the ;Ronan guard's who kept the
peace, a few renegade Jews, ,who dis-
regarded the Passover, and Judas who
skulked along The darkened streets.
'Peter aiel John understood now
why all the mystery about the supper,
(for Jesus had whispered to them
who would betray Him),
The going of Judas cleared, the at-
mosphere in the Upper Room. The
conversation was not so strained,
Jesus told again-wha't -He must do
When they realized the tragedy that
was so near, they were sad. Jesus
tried to comfort them and encourage
e n to carry on the work He 'had
begun,
An. hour after Judas left, Jesus got
up from the table and called this
eleven to follow him. out to sorne
quiet place. His hand was on the
latch, but they were on their knees
around Him, tugging at His gar-
ments, begging Home to stay. Jesus
looking Sows at their eager faces
said, "I ant the vine, ye are 'the
bran'che's.` Without Me ye can do no-
thing. I go to the Father, but I will
send My ;Spirit to lead, you:"
By that time, Jesus knew that
Judas would he 'back any noment.
So, after a sprayer with the eleven
and for them, he opened the door
and 'went out, leading: the way to
