Jehovah, to deliver tln-6. Jer. 1:19.
The Htirritig events of this lesson oc
curred in the Castle Antouia and the
Sanhedrln hall, near the temple court
of Jerusalem; also In Caesnreu, the
Itoman capital of Judcn, on the Medi
teranean const, in the year A. I. 57,
Just at the close of Paul's third mls
aloiiary Journey. The lesson plctur vs
two successive days of strange adven
tures In which Paul was concerned, a
narrow escape and the unexpected
providences used In his deliverance.
The day was inaugurated ly Paul's
magic words "I am a Kotiian citizen,"
which caused the commander, Lyslas,
to release him from the threatened
scourging, and made him more than
ordinarily careful In Ills treatment of
I'uul.
I. Before the Elders (vv. 1-12). Py
referring hack to chapter HI, v. 13, we
find the charge which really underlay
all of Paul's troulile, his preaching in
the name of the Lord Jesus. Paul's
defense is Interesting. He gives us a
rehearsal of his Christian life, laying
emphasis upon its Mauiclcssncss and
the fact that lie Is not an apostate
.Tew. The high priest speaks to silence
him, hut not gently. Although Paul
for n moment seems to give way to his
Justifiable Indignation, lie quickly re
veals his reverence for the rulers of
the people, lie then divides the san
hcilrin. Head carefully chapter '"J :t-7.
and compare with verses 17 and IS.
The stinhedrln could not explain this
testimony of Paul, and were seeking
to put aside the whole pii st ion. An
interesting discussion would he to con
sider the Insult to Paul. Was his In
dignation right and rightly expressed?
Another question, the matter of Paul's
apology. .lust for what did he npolu
gljse? Is It ever wrong to speak evil
of rulers? These were Ind 1 days of
stress it ii 1 storm. Was Pmil justified
In dividing Ihe snnliedriu in order to
conquer their opposition to him?
Again, how Hod u-ed these incidents
in the furtherance of the gosped Is a
suggestive lesson for us all. It has
lieen hinted that Ananias was not In
Ills priestly garments, mid therefore
perhaps not readilj recogni.ed by
Paul. Paul may never have seen him,
as he was elected high priest after
Paul had left the council. It Is Inter
esting to nte that it i.-, not said that
anyone struck Paul or that Paul did
not apologize for his ords or deny
them t. true, Init.oMl., for their be
ing spoken to I lie li Ji priest. Read
in this connection what Christ said to
the Pharisees (Matt. 'J.'t :''7). Paul ap
ologized because he had broken the
law found In Kxodus ?2 :'JS. In the
trial of Christ one of the ofllccrs struck
Jesus with the palm of his hand,
whereupon Jesus unswered him, say
ing: "If I have spoken evil, bear wit
ness of the evil, but If well, why Ktnlt
est thou nu ?" on the other hand,
when Jesus was Ill-treated by t ie com
mon soblires, he opened not his mouth.
II. The Plot and Deliverance (vv. 1'J
.'(."). Paul's prospect was not a pleas
ant one. In his darkness Cod appeared
to ills tiiiiliful servant to cheer him
(v. 11). Perhaps Paul was tempted to
think be had made a mistake in com
ing to Jerusalem over the protests of
his friends, but evidently the Lord
heartily approved of his testimony
there. A dangerous conspiracy was
forming auaiust him, but !od was, as
he always Is, beforehand with his com
fort and preparation for the crisis. We
have often speculated as to what be
came of the forty men who entered
into it (see v. P-) whether they ac
tually lived up to their oath. If they
did. they must have died of starvation.
They were determined men, willing to
go any length, and fancied they were
doing the will of !od. There Is no
more dangerous man than he who fan
cies that lie must be the Judge as to
wlui are Cod's friends and who are his
foes, and that be is the appointed exe
cutioner of Cod's Judgment. The plot
wns well laid, and seemed certain of
success, but it failed miserably. (See
Psalm J:l-4; U:1-10; Isaiah 41 :10).
The wicked, who leave Cod out of
their plans, no matter how cunningly
they plot, are doomed to failure (Uom.
8:31). These p'otters co-operated with
the priest. Kccleslastlcs have often
descended to the lowest villainy. Men
ure not murdered today, though their
reputation are often blasted by un
principled and hellishly impelled pro
fessed followers of the lowly Naza
rene. Puul had friends In this city.
His nephew's discovery and revelat'on,
and the Centile aoldier, a colonel, of
fered his deliverance. In the hov'a
heart thea must have been great ad
miration for the uncle. It would be
well for teachers of boys to have them
reeat In their own language this boy's
story. Paul was not safe In Jerusa
lem. The Roman governor recognised
the nature of the conspiracy, and the
desperate character of the Jewish fa
natics, and therefore sent him under a
strong guard to Caesarca, which was
reachtid after a Jnurnew on horseback,
lasting through the night and the fol
lowing day.

The
Home
Rule
rgument
Don't Fall For It Investigate
At a recent meeting in Central City, Hon. James Stevens, of that city, an ex-member of
the Nebraska Legislature, said:
"During the last session of the legislature the larger cities of the state of Nebraska
were trying to get home rule. I wanted to be fair I wanted to vote for home rule provided
that was the right thing to do. I began to make some investigations. I found that our own
county, Merrick county, had a population of 10,334 and that Dauglas county, of which Oma
ha is the county seat, wide-open in booze and vice, was sixteen times as large, or had 168,000
people. I wanted to know how we were comparing in taxes. I found that Merrick county,
which at that time had not a saloon in it, was paying 1 per cent of the state's taxes. That
would mean that Douglas county ought to pay sixteen times as much, or 16 per cent of the
state's taxes. I wanted to know how we were comparing in prisoners in the penitentiary.
Merrick county had two men ; Douglas county, 16 times as large, should have 32 men in the
penitentiary at Lincoln. They were paying taxes to cover the expenses of 22. I found that
wide-open Omaha had 115 men in the penitentiary; paying taxes for 22 men, and entitled, by
reason of their population to 32; that meant they were throwing 83 men on the state of Nebr
aska. The tax-payers of the state of Nebraska were paying $99,000 in taxes every year to
look after the criminals for Douglas county and wide-open Omaha.
"If you will take the insane asylum and all the other state institutions you will find
Omaha throwing upon the tax-payers of the state annually over five hundred thousand dollars.
Then you will demand that Douglas county and Omaha pay all the bills incurred by their
wide-open condition, or that, not only Omaha, but every other large city in the state go into
the dry column."
Do you see what "Home Rule" signifies? Simply
that the Omaha brewers can prosper, Omaha can run
wide-open in booze, vice and crime; fill our state insti
tutions with derelicts, and YOU pay the bill.
YOU have a right to say what Omaha's policy should be, so far as it affects your taxes.
