This lesson donla with tho Inst of those four ovonta which mark tho crisis In tho llfo of our Lord nt Caper naum. It occurred Just before the third period of his Onllelenn ministry ond tho tlmo of his final departure for Jeru salem. Wo havo seen what tho atti tude of Jesus was toward the law of his nation. In this lesson we sco his attitude toward tho rabbinical tradi tions of tho pcoplo which were tho opinions of men and not tho law of God. Just so many today look upon tho forms and ceremonies of tho church as being verily tho law of God. Moreover, these traditions wore made a pretext whereby men evaded tho law. So today we find men very relig ious and punctilious In their churchly duties, who fall miserably In their ap plication of tho moral codo to conduct. The analysis falls into four general divisions: One, tho accusation, (vv. 1-B.; two, tho answer, (vv. 0-13) ; three, tho application, (vv. 14-23)., and four, the Illustration, (vv. 24-37). 1. The Accusation, (w. 1-5). The growing hatred of the Pharisees, led them to mnfco long Journeys from Jeru salem thnt they might spy on Jesus and find a pretext for accusation. Whllo they were studying him, they re vealed their Ideas of tho kingdom of God. They took Bpeclal notlco that tho disciples of Jesus nto without washing their hands. We must not un derstand this to mean so much tho re moval of defilement, as tho neglect of a ceremonial observance over which the Pharisees were punctilious, (vv. 3, 4)7 Verses threo and four Illuminate certain traditions to which tho Jews adhered tenaciously. Thus exempli fled we can sco that their Ideas of man's relation to God wcro largely a matter 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 Jesus reveals the very oppo alte Ideal. He begins by calling the Pharisees hypocrites. A hypocrite Is a play actor one who hides behind a mask. Applying tho prophecy of Isaiah, Jesus plainly tells the Pharisees that they are hiding their true charac ter behind the mask of ceremonial cleansing. Such play acting Is but a poor Imitation of the real heart con dition demanded of God, (Psa. 51:10). Their hearts were far from God, even though with their lips they professed to servo him. Tho love wo express to God consists not In ritualistic worship, but in doing his will from the heart. III. The Application, (v. 14-23). Jesus takes advantage of this discus alon, and, turning to the multitude, up on whom the Pharisees would bind a grievous burden of ceremonialism and falsehood (Matt. 28:4), warns them that it is not so much that which en ters into a man that defiles him, as that which issues from him (v. 15). It seems quite natural that In their per plexity the disciples should ask Jesus what he meant by that In his reply (w. 18-23), Jesus shows very clearly that "the Issues of life" (Pror. 4:23), reveal the corruption which la within. (Sco Matt. 12:34, 35; Gen. 0:5; James 8:10-12). If the heart be not cleansed, what will It avail if 'we Vash tho hands? What then is the application for this present diy? Clearly we are tnnght the danger of lip service with out a change of heart. Substituting good for tho best is sin. Forms nnd ceremonies are good and have their plnco; they nro significant for they nro Important teaching factors; but they must not bo substituted for a pure heart We must beware lest we htdo behind such a mask. There Is hero also plain teaching aa to Jesus estimate of tho Pentateuch and Inforentlally of tho prophecy of Isaiah. He specifically calls it "tho Word' of God." Surely we can accept his cstlmato as contrasted with the tradition of tho elders or the "con sensus of modern thought" Lew talk and more walk. Leas wishing and more doing-, Leaa preaching and more practicing-, Lcm organization and more of the' spirit. Finally, we have two Illustrations as to how Jesus sets men free, (a) Jesus' silence appears to deepen faith in the pleading Syrophenlclan woman (v. 24-30). (b) We have the cure of the deaf and the dumb man, (w. 81-37); In stantaneous healing, showing dlvlno power. Jesus was setting his people free from their bodily Infirmities and at the same time delivering them from their sins and Imperfections and bring ing them Into his spiritual Kingdom. This hs Is still doing. BELGIAN WRESTLER HAS HAD 23 WIVES Turns Back on Past, and Now Hopes for Peaceful Do mestic Life. Now York. Jean Plerro Plerard, known In sporting circles as "Plerro lo 0010880," MS-pound wrestler, with headquarters In New York city, may claim tho lienvywelght motrlnioninl championship of tho world. Tho pow erful Belgian 1ms had 28 wives, most of whom deserted him hocnuso of his excessive drinking. Slnco his mar riage to his latest bride, formerly Miss Julln Jacobson, n Russian woman, Plo rard has turned his buck on John Bar leycorn. IIu Innlntn thnt No. 23 comes nearer to being tho Ideal woman for whom ho lias sought In his matrimo nial ventures, and that ho hopes to llvo long nnd happily with her. Plerard was born In Moutlgnlcr sur Snmbre, Belgium, January ID, 1808, and began life ns n chef. For four years ho served tlio king of Belgium and then was sought ns chef for tho crown prlnco of Germany. And Plerard de- Italian and Spanish Women Have Too Much Temper. clarcs thnt, had ho accepted tho job, the war would bo over ; perhaps, there never would havo been a war. Plorard was only eighteen years of ago when, In 1880, ho was married tho first time. His wlfo died in child birth. IIo eloped with a boarding houso mistress and loft her when ho found sho had a husband. With his third wlfo ho lived 13 years. Plerard had by this time taken up wrestling, and In bis search for a perfect woman began to marry at the slightest provo cation. Somo of his marrlago contracts lasted only three-months and ono last ed only 72 hours. Plerard declares that Italian and Spanish women havo too much temper. French women nro too canrlclous. Eng lish women aro too cold, and German ' k women too stupid. Russian women, ho believes, are the best becauso they aro obedient nnd wait on their hus bands hand and foot. Ho has nover married an American woman and do J clares bo never will, becauso they have too much liberty and -would make him so jealous that they would drive him crazy.
