8 Comments JO • Creamed Comments on the Sunday School Lesson, Jesus and the Psalms. Psalm 8:8; Matthew 21:15.1 ft. psalm 110:1; Matthew <1; 45: Psalms 118: 22,23; Matthew 21.38-42; Luke 24:4, for Sunday, September 11. The devotional value of the Psalms is seen us they express our experience. In these Psalms a* recorded in our lesson w* see how they expressed the experience of Christ. Psalm 8.2. "Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings bast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou migbtest still the enemy and the avenger." God has ordained that even the feeblest representative of humanity should be hi* champions to confound and silence those who oppose bis kingdom and deny his goodness and providential government. This is illustrated in the following two verses.

— Matthew 15.16. "And when the I i chief priests and scribes saw the | wonderful things that he did and’ ''tbe children crying in the temple. | and saying. Hosanna to the sun. I of David, they were sore dis-: I pleased and said unto him. Hear11est thou what these say? And Jesus said to them, Yea, have ya’ never read, out of tbe mouth of | babes and sucklings thou has per- , lie-ted praise?" At the end of Jes-' I us' triumphant entrance he cleaned I the temple and the triumph of, | Jesus was voiced by children singI ing Hosanna. All this displeased I the tihief priest* and scribe*; (i Jesus met this criticism by quot ; ling a well known I’salm which as a child and youth he had learned, and which now voiced bi* experfence. “Have ye never read" *ukI gests either that much Bible reading does not grip us, or tbat we • may not have tbe religious experience ueceaaury to understand tbe scriptures we read. Psalm 110:1. "The Lord said unto my Lord. Sit thou at my right * band, until I make thine enemies thy footstool." The first word, "Lord” refer* to Jehovah tbe secI <>nd word, "Lord" to the repreaen- j tatlve of Israel which unconscious-: iy to the Psalmist applies to the Messiah who shall reign with power. This verse is illustrated in i Christ in the following live verses

■ Matthew- 23 41-43. "While the I Pharisees were gathered together, I Jesus asked them saying Wbat I think ye of Christ? Whose son is II he? They say unto him, The son I, of David. He saith unto them, How I then in spirit doth he call him ’ Lord, saying The Lojd said to my i . Lord. Sit thou upon my right hand. j , till I make thine enemies thy . footstool.” Jesus had been teach mg in the temple, speaking tn par- - able* in which his critics were denounced in self defense. He now takes the initiative in an offensive , movement In gsking them a series i of questions. Jesus proceeds to i question his eritlcs as to the ani cestry of the Lord in the Psalm . quoted. How is the doctrine that he is descended from David con slstcnt with what David says when he called him Lord? A Lord or master is a superior. The word • here does not necessarily imply ' divinity, but only superiority. David calls him bis superior bis lord, his master, bis lawgiver, and expresses his willingness to obey i him. It the Messiah was merely to be a decendent of David, as other men descended from parents- ! if be was to have a, human nature unly-if he did n*l exist when David wrote, with what propriety then could he call him Lord. - Barnes. Matthew 21:38-42. "But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the ' heir, come let us kill him and let us seize upon bis inheritance. And they caught him and cast him out 'of the vineyard, and slew him. Jesus saith unto them. Did ye never read in the scriptures, The 1 stone which the builders rejected. tb same is bcom the bead of th corner; this is the Lard's doing and it is marvelous In our eyes.' Three principal teachings emerge from theae passages. The first is that Jesus is a stone; he is not a shifting ssnd. The second lesson is that he is the corner stone. Jesus is the only liegutten eon. the only hope of the world. The third teaching is that Jesus was rejected. Psalms 118:22,23, was fulfilled in him. Luke 21; 44. And he said unto them. These are the words which I spake unto you. while I was yet with you. that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and » the prophets, and in the Psalms concerning me ” Jesus is talking to his disciples after his resurrection. He is show- ' ing how the scriptures were fulfilled through his death and resurrection.
