AND THE SABBATH i

- _ — —— n ■■-■■liwii , ■„ I ...■■-■■l. ' .. “ ‘_i J-A-S 2nl — w h wo

One of the questions much mooted among the stict Jews of Jesus' day was the observance of the Sabbath. The Pharisees had exalted this until it fairly overshadowed all other points of their religion. Strict rules were made as to what was toil and what was not, and punishments were devised for those who violated them. So, on a Sabbath day, Jesus walked through a grainfield near Capernaum with his disciples.

Hoyt When Jesus started to preach , i his reformations along the coast i j of Galileo and in the synagogue of the larger towns and centers, he I found his simple teaching strong- '' ly oi posed by the Pharisees The Pl.a risers wer*> a sect of ceremonial observers. The laws of Moses, as they were embodied in the ten commandments, stated simply and succinctly as to what a ' man must do to lead a Godly life. But the Pharisees saw fit to em--1 broider this with restrictions and p« ty definitions, until the greater intent of these regulations was tost in minor, discriminations. They looked upon the Sabbath as a day to be guarded l»y the . sternest restrictions; and in ; these restrictions, they lost all consideration of humanity and . mankind. i So it was when Jesus came' 1 rtuang them and looked upon the : day not as one of pelty conventionalities and finer religious dlf1 i’ei'entiaticns. t(n one on whlcli' ; Gad should be worshipptsl and J I time given Io a contemplation, of ' th° inner man and the finer things l j of life It is a lesson which we today would do well to give careful ! heed. We live in a world of strife 1 rnd confusion. Hustle and bustle are about us. The struggle for i existence keeps us immersed in | a frenzy of business calculations. And we fail to give that time to, I our Sabbath which we should. , It would be well if we checked | ourselves and did this, it ir not ; only the need of attending church i that the spirit may be refreshed. but the remainder of 'he day should be spent in contemplation " ami communion with the soul. We should turn from temporal things to the spiritual for the j brief time of this one day; and ■ve will find ourselves refreshed and strengthened if we bur do so. prepared to return to the battle .of life with renewed strength I and courage. i

The disciples were hungry and as they walked they plucked the grain and rubbed it between their hands that they might eat. By this act, they committed the offense of harvesting and threshing, according to the strict Pharisees. When they remonstrated with Jesus, he told them how David entered the house of God and divided the shrew-bread among the hungry. “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath," he ended.

How did he heal the man? ' 9. What did the Pharisees do? 10. Who were the Herodians? I ANSWERS 1. The incidents of todays lesson occurred at about the same) time as those of the May; and June. 28 A. D.. the second year of Jesus' ministry, in the village of Capernaum. 2. The Pharisees were those, who believed in strict regulation. They had taken the ten commandments and about them had woven an observance and restriction that caused all sorts of com plications . 3. A house which took fire on the Sabbath was allowed to burn.; The sick could not be doctored on' ' hat day. The distance a man nr'ght walk was limited. How heavva load might be carried was . stated. Many other restrictions, were made. 4. Jesus and his disciples walked through a grainfield on the Sabbath when the disciples plucked ears of grain, rubi ed it out between their hands, and ate it. , 5. The Phar'sees declared iiis was reaping and threshing and against lite laws. Jesus told them hnw David, their great ances'or. had entered the temple nrd oi|en the twelve loaves of i bread and divided it among the ■ hungry. “The Sabbath was made ! for man. not men for Ihe Salt-' bath.” he summed up. 6. On another Sabbath as Jesus came to Ute synagogue, ho found a man with a wintered hand wai’ing to bo healed. Tilt- Pharisees and unbelievers stood about wait'nn to see what he would do, 1 since ft was nnltwful to tree the sick on this day 7. "Is it lawful on the Sabbath day to do good or to do harm -to ••ive a life or to kill?" 8. Jesus ordered the man to I stre'eh for’h his hand. He did •so and was healed. i 9. The Pharisees perceived th'i' i ’tis new teacher was bound to undermine their laws and observances. So they plotted with tile Herodians for his death. 10. The country at this time was a Roman province and Herod 'he Great ruled over it. His adherents were Herodians. The Pharisees were opposed to Roman ) rule hut to attain their end. they sought help of Jheir enemies. o First Evangelical Church M. W. Sundermann, minister. ; Tiie Evangelistic services conducted for the past two weeks, under the leadership of Rev. J. H. Arndt, of Fort Wayne, has created much interest. Large audience.-, have tilled the church from night to night. On Sunday niorniqg the order of the services will be somewhat different from the regular. The Sunday School will meet promptly at 9:15 a. m. After a

On another Sabbath, Jesus went to the synagogue as was his custom to preach and teach. As he entered the place, he was greeted by a man with a withered hand who sought to be healed. The Pharisees watching him, since it was against the law to heal the sick on the Sabbath day. “Is it lawful on the Sabbath day to do good or to do harm-to save a life or to kill?” Jesus questioned the group about him. They answered not.

Then the Pharisees went out and took council as to how they might destroy Jesus. Bitterly opposed to Roman rule, they nevertheless went to the party favoring Herod the Great and plotted with them to the end that this reformer who so upset them might be put to death.

With the death of Samuel J Furnace, who took poison while under detention as the murderer in London's almost "perfect laurder," the case that for two weeks occupied the best minds in Scotland Yard is closed to the satisfaction of the authorities. Furnace, a building contractor, was arrested after one of the most extensive man hunts in the Yard’s history for the torch slaying of Waiter Spatchett, a rent collector and a close friend of the accused man. The case opened when firemen were called to extinguish a fire in Furnace’s combined office and workshop. In the course of their job, the fire fighters found the body of a man seated in a chair in the office It was charred beyond recognition, but relatives of the contractor unhesitatingly identified it as that of Furnace. However, during the routine autopsy demanded by British law, it was found that bullets and not fire had been the cause of death.
