Superetition and ignorauee nmet give way, &sus looked up into heaven as He performed the to teach the afflicted man that eve.ry good gift comes from above, The man could not couveree. By his motions ;reins gave the man a true idea of what his dieorder was, and of the power that must reetore hien. Thas he wae impree- eively taught to glorify God. `Jesus spoke with authority, and. power went with His word. The upward look, the sigh and the word were significant, It is im- poggible to enter fully into the profound depthe of the "eigh" will& Jesus uttered on thie occasion. It was charged with the power of God. Our Lord's feeliogs of sadness were all for others. His sighs and tears were followed by some bene- volent word or work. The cure was a proof of Chriet'e Messialiehip, according to the prophet Isaiah (5. 5, 6). It was a specimen of the operations of the gos- pel upon the hearts and lives of men, It was a, double sickuess and a double cure, Jesus spoke with divine authority, and He opened the understanding and the heart to receive instruction, and the lipe to show forth His praise. All His miracles were wrought in hermony with the Father. 3f, FAtrcised for the people. "I have vompaseion on the multitude." On tho oecatiion of feeding the five theueand and on this oocasion, Jesus took upon him- self, forgetting his own sorrow, the needs of the people, His teadernees hero eye gests all the pitiableness of their sitna- tion. He thought for them before they expreeeed thine* need. The deeire to grant this blessing originated with Jaime himself. His compassion was the erierin and eouree of their help. He will exer- cise aete of special providence to help end euetain those who follow him. He is the Saviour of bodice as well as souls. He is Lord. of the harvest and bread as well ae of moral preeepte and spiritual eonneele. This was a miracle of inerey.

Not- aithetanding the hatred of the Pharisees an.d their threabs agairest Christ and their efforte to destroy hie influmme, the common people kept up this belief in him. \\lint the proud Pharisees looked upon with disdain the humble Saviour looked upon with tenderness.
