Vieille eighty miles north. Here they
tatrie4 three days for purposes of trade.
Thence they sailed to Ithegituus eighty
miles further. This is at the "toe" of
the Itallen boot, opposite Sicily. After
one clay'a detentiou, a fair south wind
corried them swiftly northward, 180
mike, to l'uteoli. 14. We found tireth-
reu-At Puteoll the voyage was com-
pleted, end here they found brethren
with whom they were permitted to re-
utuin seven days for rest Lula Christine
fellowship. 15. Appii forum .... three
taverns -The journey from Puteoti to
Rome, a distance of 140 miles, lay for
the most part over the Appian Way, It
W4S built three centuries before Christ.
At two well-knownstations en this road,
Appli Forum, forty-three miles from
Rome, and the Three Taverns, ten milee
nearer, Paul was met by Christian,
brethren from the imperial city. They
had heard of the ttpostle's coming and
came to give him a welome. 16. Came to
Rorne--ROme is reached at last and the
long journey is at an end. At this
Ulna the city of Rome was et the height
of its gloryaelt held sway over nearly
the entire known world, "Within a che
emit of little more than ten milds, more
than two millions of inhabitants were
crowded, 'of whom about one • million
were slaves." Pitul by himself-
' Nero, the emperor, to whom Paul had
apepaled, was too much engaged in his
debauehories end pleasures ; to care
much for such a man as Paul or such ac-
cusations as evere made against him by
the Jews." This lenity was probably
dee to the commendation of the centur-
ion Julius. -Cam. Bib. With a soldier -
The custom was to chain the prisoner
by one hand to the guard. To this chain
the apostle frequently makes allusion in
tbe epistles to the Philippians, Colos-
sians and Ephesians and his friendly
note to Philemon, all of which were
written during this imprisonment. See
Phit. 1: 13; 16: Col. 4: 18; Eph. 3: 1;
4: I; Phnom, 9, 10.
D. The first interview with the Jews
(vs, 17-22. 17. After three days -Paul
doubtless met the Christians first. This
occupied three days. Ho then invited the
leaders among the Jews who were not
Christians to meet with them, that he
might preach the gospel to his fellow -
countrymen in Rome also. Men and
brethren ---"This address to the aseem-
bled Jews is of a personal nature, and
is intended to counteract certain preju-
dices which the Roman jews might en-
teitain, RI consequence, partly, of PattPs
imprisonment, partly of the fact that he
end appealed unto the emperor, and
partly of any slanders possibly brought
from Judea.' Delivered prisoner -In as
Mild terms as possible -he recounts his
itucalled for accusatiem by the Jews in
Jerusalem, who delivered hiM into the
hands of the Romans. 18. Let me go -
He narrates briefly the events given in
eliapters 21 to 26. The Roman officials
repeatedly failed to fiud cause of of-
fense in him.
`s19. To appeal -Paul deciered that his
appeal to the Emperor lied become in-
thsperrsahly necessary, bemuse the Jews
°mooed his acquittal, to tviiieh the Rom
an authorities judged him to be entitled.
He states that it ha.d not been his in-
.„ tention to bring asty itemisation against
hisSpeople before the Empefor. 20. Hope
of lerael-The hope of Isreel Was the
general expectation of the Messiah. In
Jesus Paul believed that the expected
Salient- hail appeared, and for preaehing
this 1th had been attaeked and made ft
prisoner. He. held the same faith as all
the Jews, oirlY going in this matter fur-
° they than they, in that he believed the
anciene peenese wee new fulfilled. We
mai see from the reply of the Jews diet
heaunderetood these position exitebly.-

and Dile loftiest religeous eouception."
21e Neither received letters -The Jew-
ish. leaders in Rome had heard nothing
ddrogatory to Paul's telemeter. There
wad no ease against him. He had been
suipessively acquitted by Lyeilus, Felix,
Festus and Agrippa, 22. Desse to hear
of thee -They had evidently heerd of
Paul and of the Christian faith. and were
• interested in the Goepel wee -saga
III. But second interview with the
Jews ere. 23-29). 23. Came many -They
came in great numbes. Many ;mom-
panied the chief Jews. Ex -pounded, etc.
-"Paul takes as his theme that doc•
trine of the kingdom of God whidt was
the central troth of the Oki Testament
and the New; that great dieelesure of
die prophet's wheel was etRI, as it had
been for conturice, the supreine thought
and loope of the whole Jewish people.
Again Paul follows the very' line of het
risen Lord's expoeition to the two dis•
ciples on the road to F•minatts." Moses

thesproplicts, he showed that the tirc-
dieted kingdom is not limited to one tut -

heart's desire to preach the •gospel to
Rome (Rone 1. 943). It had been the
Lord's promise (chap. 23. 11). God re-
moved all obstacles, provided that the
apostle should go with a military es -
eget, that his expeuses should be paid
from the royal treasery, that ho slimed
enter Rome without tin accusation
against him (v. 21) aud under the pro-
tection of Julius Theseus, a man of in-
fluence. So "all things," the mob at
demote's:I. the injustice of Felix, the
irresolution of Festus, the powerlessness
of Agrippa, the shipwreck, the bonds,
did "week together' for the aceemplish.
molt of his heart's desire. Man's ob-
stacles beeame God'a agents "for good."
II. Paul's message, "Some believed
some believed not" (v. 24), The
true gospel tea.Mier is a. sweet savor of
Christ, in every pines where he gives hie
message "in them that are saved, and
in thent that perish" (2 Cor, 2; 14-16),
Our reward will have reference to our
message, net to its reception. We are
embassadors for Christ (2 Cor. 5: 20),
to beseech men to be "reconciled to God"
Cor. d; 20). We shell be rewerded,
though our message of 'peace be haught.
ily refused. We are fishers of men, re-
sponsible for tackle and bait, and posi-
tion and faithfulness, not responsible
for catching many or few. We are
sowers bound'to scatter the good seed
of the word, but"rewarded accordingly,
to our faithfulness, and not according
to our harve,st.
III. Inspiration. I. God speaking by
man for man, "Well spake the Holy
Spirit by Isaiah the prophet" (v. 25),
"God spice in time past unto the
fathers by the prophets ' (Heb. 1: 2; 2
'kings 21; 10). "The Holy Spirit by the
mouth of David spake' (Acts 1: 16;
4: 24, 25). A psalm of Moses reads,
"To -day, if ye will hear his voice, harden
not sour hearts" (Pvt. 95': 7). The
writer to the Hebrews, quoting it, de-
clares, "Wherefore as the Holy Spirit
saith, To -day, if ye will hear his voice,
harden not your hearts" (Heb. 3: 7, 8).
2, God speaking through man to man.
"Go and I will be with thy mouth and
tect4 thee what thou shalt say" (Exod.
4: 12, 15). A live coal touched the lips
of Isaiah, and then he Was bidden to
"go and tell" (Isa. 6: 5, 10). At Pente-
cost "they were all filled with the Holy
Spirit, and began to speitk with other
tongues as the Spirit gave them utter -
once" (Acts 2: 4). The New Testament
writers, quoting from. the Old, declare,
"That it might be fulfilled which was
spoken by the Lord through the pro-
phet" (Matt. 2: 15).
IV. Preaching and teachine. Paul
preached and taught "with alle'boldness"
(v. 31, R. V.) He never sought the ap-
probatioe of .the crowd, nor strove to
please the ear of the people. He never
thought of himself, only of his message.
He dared to tell those obdurate Jews
that they were rejected, Ind the salva-
tion of God was sent to the Gentiles
because their hearts tvere gross, their
ears dull and their eyes blinded (Matt.
3: 15). So to -day we should dare to
declare to hardened sinners that they
are closing their eyes to the deformity
of sin, the vanity of the world, the
beauty of holiness. the purity of Christ
the glory of God, the desirableness of
heaven, and the certainty of hell. Tell
them that they are slaves to
prejudice, obstinately infidel, and have
closed Their eyes "lest they should see"
their vile habits, their sinful. pleasures,
their ill-gotten gains and their selfish
living. A. C. M..

Earl Grey Honors Memory of Rev.
James Robertson.
Winnipeg, Nov. 8. -That Earl Grey
has a. great nian's instinct for greatness
was impressively and beautifully exem-
plified the other day in Winnipeg by an
act whose grace .stud . appropriateness
will appeal to all Canadian hearts.
On his recent rennet journey from
Britain ilis Excellency found time to
read "The Life of James Robertson,
0. D.," by Charles W. Gordon (Ralph
Connor), and was profoundly impreesed
by the magnitude of the man and of
the service lie rendered to the whole
Dominion by his work in Westere
Canada. Meeting the author in Win-
nipeg during Isis meet visit to that
eity, His Excellency said.: "I have just
finished 'The Life of James Robertson.'
I read the book from covisr to cover.
Ile strikee me as having been a very
I great man. I should like, as a tribute
I of iny respect, to visit his grave." There
remained but a day of hig stay in Win-
nipeg, but he found time to arrange a
visit to the old. historic Kildonan church-
yard, where repose the ashes of so many
of those great Cana/liana Black, *Nesbit,
King, Robertson, who have left their
mark upon the west.
The scene was one profoundly lin.
pressive. Atoompanied by Dr. Gordon
anti Rev. Hugh Hamilton, minister of
Kildonatt, His Excelleneyemproacheddhe
