"And they come and say unto hint, Wkly do John's disciples and' the disciples of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?" John the Baptist was at this time confined to his lonely prison in Macha:nls,where htl•had been thrown because he dared to rebuke Herod Antipas for his un- holy relations with his brother's wife. John's disciples were grieving for him and were in no mood for feasting but for fasting, This question implied a rebuke, though on the surface it mere- ly asked for information. "And Jesus said unto them, Can the sons of the bridechamber fast,. while the bridegroom is with them?" At a. Jewish wedding it was the cus- tom for the ;bridgroom accompanied by his friends, to go to fetch the bride. These friends were called 'the sons of the bride -chamber.' "As long as they ,have the bride- groom with them,' they cannot fast." John the Baptist himself had, eoinpar- ped. Christ to a bridegroom; and had j olcen of his rejoicing at the coining ',ie Messiah as .the bridegroom's iencN3res his joy. John's 'disciples e should !levee -el -limbered this saying. "But the da es will come, when the bri'd,egroom shal'l,be ;taken away from thein."' The Gri ek word translated hints at a terreye conclusion of Christ's life, Very early in His min- istry our Lord had fofteseen the tragic close of His life on etttrth, and Here again He foretells it, ti Ail His life, feasting and all, was dart(ned by the shadow of the cross, ,"Axd then will. they fast in that day," .jirist does not condemn fasting. He iices in it the inevitable and natural expression of sorrow, and an aid to the ', onquest •of, temptation ' t mp nand 'the pur>fz< anon of -elle saki. 4, "No than sewcth a piec � £ undress- ed C1othaO an old, gam nt." Un - �dressed ci4th' is 'unblehed cloth, which in Ile shrinking tearS away .. from that to which it ha been sewed' ".Else that which' shcfuld fill it up taketh from it, the new from the old." Christ implied that it would be fool- ish to try to impose the old. Jewish religious customs and rules upon the lipt, ,,new religion which I -Ie was teaching e to Hi disciples. His t es. Thereligions two xe ons 1yg would not mingle. "And a worse rent is made.',, Christianity has a place for fasting, but not as a formal and regular requirement. Christians fast when the needs of their life call for it, and only then. To impose upon them a definite amount of fasting, at definite seasons and for definite leng- ths of time, would destroy both Christianity and fasting. "And no man putteth new wine in- to old wine -skins." The receptacles for wine were not bottles in Christ's day, 'but the skins of animals, usually goats with the rough side inward.

Christ began with well-deserved wrath, . but His anger Was soon lost in His sorrow. "He saith unto the man, Stretch forth thy. hand."'Note that our Lord mercdy bade the man to move his arm, and. His critics could not bring such a command as that as a g charge against Him.: "And he stretched it forth; and his hand was restored," The man` had some measure Of faith, or he would not have tried to obey Christ: `Whatever we may try to do because Jesus bids us, He ,win give its strength to do, however impossible to our unaided powers it is.' "And the Pharisees went out, and straightway with the Herodians took counsel against him:" 'The Herodians were the court party, partisans of the Herods, and therefore were the polise ical enemies of the Pharisees, who were bitterly opposed to the Roman rale.
