This lesson deals with the last of those four events which mark the crisis In the life of onr Lord at Caper nnuin. It occurred just before the third period of bis . Unlietetn ministry and the time of his final departure for Jem SntfQ), We have seen what the atti tude of Jesus was toward the law of his nntlon. In this lesson we see his attitude toward the ral'iblnical tradi tlona of the people which were the opinions of nieu and not the law of Clod. Just so many today look upon the forms and ceremonies of the chord) us being verily the law of God. Moreover, these traditlous were mu'l pretext whereby men evuded tli ia.v. S today we Sad men very relU' lous and punctilious in their churchlv duties, who fall miserably In their ap plication of the moral code to eonduc; The analysis fails Into four general divisions: one. the accusation, (w. -.".; two. the answer( (vv. 0-13) : three, the application, (vv. 14-23)., and four, the illustration, (vv. 24-37). 1. The Accusation, (vv. 1-."). The growing hatred of the Pharisees, led them to make long journeys from Jeru salem that they might spy on Jesus s.ad find n pretext for aoeuMtton While they were studying him. they re vealed their Ideas of the kingdom of flod. They took special notice that the disciples Of Jesus ate wlthotfl trashing ihAr hands. We must not tin derstand this- to mean so much the re movnl of defilement, ns the neglect of i ceremonial observance over which the Pharisees were punctilious, (vv. 9 4). Verses three and four Illuminate certain traditions to which the Jew -ndhered tenaciously. Thus exempli- lied we can see that their Ideas man's relation to God were largely a itter of external ceremony. Purity to them was an outward matter largely governed by the traditions of men, (v. 4). II. The Answer (v. 6-13). The an swer of Jesns reveals the very oppo site ideal. He begins by calling the Pharisees hypocrites. ' A hypocrite is a play actor one who hides behind a mask. Applying the prophecy of Isaiah, Jesns plainly tells the Phaviaeei thai they are hiding their true cliarae- t. r behind the mask of ceremonial cleansing. Such play acting Is but a poor imitation of the real hear! con dition demanded of God. (Psa. Blt). Their hearts were far trom God, even though with their lips they professed to serve him. The love we express to Hod consists not In ritualistic worship, but In doing his will from the heart. III. The Application, (v. 14-23) Jesm takes advactage of this discus sion, and. turning to the multitude, up OP whom the Pharisees would bud grievous burden of ceremonialism and falsehood (Matt. 23:4), warns them that It is not so much that which en terh into a man that defiles him, Sk that which issues from him (v. 15). It seems quite natural that In their per plexlty the disciples should ask Jestt what he meant by that. In his replj (vv. 1S-23), Jesu-- shows very eletirlj that "the Issues of life" (Prov. 4:23) reveal the corruption which is within (See Matt. 12:84, MS; Gen. :."; June :K-1J). If the heart be not cleansed what will It avail if we wash ih hands? What then is the application for this present day? Clearly we art taught the dauger of lip service with out u change of heart. Substituting good for the best is sin. Forms ami ceremonies are good and have theli place; they are significant for they uri important teaching factors; but the must not be substituted for a pun heart. We must beware lest we libit behind such a mask. There is here also plain teaching as to Jesus' estimate of the Pentateuch tad inferentlully of the prophecy Of Isaiah. He specifically calls It "the Word of God." Surely we can accept hU estimate as contrasted with the tradition of the elders or the "con sensus of modern thought." Croup?
