THE SUNDAY SCHOOL. LNTERNATIONAL LESSON' COM MENTS FOR NOVEMBER 11. Subject: Jesus in Gethsenane, Matt. xxvi., 36-50--Golden Text: Luke xxii., 42--Memory Verses, 38, 39 -Topic: The Agony of Jesus. L Jesus enters the garden (vs. 36, 3'). 36. "Then." This was about midnight. "Cometh." .After they had left the -upper room where they had eaten the pasbal supper. "With them." There were only eleven now; Juda was absent mak Ing arrangements for the betrayal. "Unto a place." Jesus oftentimes resorted to this quiet retreat with His disciples (John 18:2) for re freshment, retirement, uniet instruc tion and perhaps prayer. "Gethse mane." The name means oil press, an emblem of trial, distress, agony. "Sit ye here." He left eight of the disciples at the entrance of the gar den. '"Pray." Christ frequently went alone to pray. 37. "Took with Him." Farther into the garden, to a spot more re I tired. In this hour Jesus needed hu man sympathy, even while He must "tread the wine press alone." "Two sons of Zebedee." James and John. The three disciples Jesus took with Him had been witnesses of His trans figuration and glory, and were now to behold His humiliation and agony. "Began to be sorrowful." To be penetrated with the most exquisite sorrow, and overwhelmed with 'deep anguish. "Very heavy." Sore trou bled; a stronger word than the other. II. The bitter eup of sorrow (vs. 38, 39). 38. "Even unto death." It was agony that would destroy Hit life if it continued. The agony be came so great that His rweat was great drops of blood falling down to the ground. "Tarry ye here." Spo ken to the three disciples. 39. "A little farther." About a stone's cast (Luke); 150 to 200 feet. There were now three divisions of the little company-the eight, the three, and Jesus alone. "On Hit face." This was the ordinary post ure of the supplicant when the favor asked was great, and deep humilia tion required. -The head was put be' tween the knees and the forehead brought to touch the earth. "MY Father." In all our addresses to God we should eye- Him as a 'ather-as our Father, and it Is in a special manner helpful to do so when we are In an agony. "If it be possible." The great horror of Jesus in the garden arose, not from fear of Calvary, but from fear of failure, through physi cal suffering to reach Calvary, and so lose all for which He left heaven. "Not as I will." If it is Thy will that I should (lie here In the -garden in stead of dying on the cross, as fore told, I submit. He was entirely re signed to His Father's will. I7I. The disciples asleep (vs. 40, 41). 40. "Cometh unto the disci ples." He did this three.times dur ing this awful hour. He apparently desired communion with them and the sympathy and comfort which they could give. "Asleep." . Luke says they were sleeping for sorrow. "Un to Peter." Peter had iust made Ipud professions. "With Me." He was sufftering for them, but only expected that they would watch with Hhf. "One hour." Sometimes Chrit~fcon tInued in prayer all night, but He only asked them to watch with Him one hour. 41. "Watch and pray" A? testing time Is coming and you will need to watch carefully and pray earnestly. The Christian is in danger of falling a prey to the world, the flesh and the devil. "The spirit--willing," etc. They desired to watch with Him and thus show their sympathy and love for Him, but their bodies and minds were weak. IV. Jesus prevails in prayer (vs. 42-4 4). 42. "The second time." flis going the second and third times shows how great was the burden and His intense eagerness and persever ance. 43. "Their eyes were heavy." It is a sad thing for the church to be sleeping while Chr'ist Is suffering and praying. 44. "The same words." Not that Jesus merely repeated the same words each time, but these words were the substance of His prayer. This prayer is "a model (1) of ear nestness, (2) directness, (3) perse verance, (4) faith, (5) submission-. V. Jesus betrayed (vs. 45-50). I45. "Sleep on now." Jesus had gained the victory. But Jesus was 'on the alert and when He heard The approaching multitude and - saw the lanterns and torches He aroused the sleepers. 46. "Let us be going.". To meet Judas and the soldiers. Jesus is ready; without hesitancy He turns His face toward the terrible suffer' ings of the cross. 47. "Great multi tude." Composed of a detachment of the Roman cohort stationed in' the Castle Antonia (John 18.-S, 12, "the band"), of the Jewish temple watch iLuke 22: 52, "the captains of the temple"); of others, including serv ants and dependents o-f the high Ipriest (v. 51), and, in all probability, some fanatical chief priests and eld ers. "Swords." Carried by the~ Ro man soldiers. "Staves." . Or clubs, the arms of the temple watch and the crowd. John adds also, what lay In the nature of the case, that they were provided with "lanterns and torches" as well as weapons. 48. "Kiss." Probably the usual saluta tion of the disciples to. their Master. 49 "Kissed Him." A stronger Iword than that used in the-last verse. The sign was a kiss, but the perform ance a caressing. 50. "Friend." A term of civility though not necesssr ily of friendship. Christ's meekness and gentleness surpass even the stan dard which He holds up for His dis ciples in Matt. 5; 29. One of the Family "'Are you the editor that tahes in society nes? inquired! the calle-, an fndersized man, with a tired and tim i d appealing look on his face.

"My wife gave a small party last night, and I am wiH-~ ing to pay to have this re-pon' of the affair put in the paper." "We don't charge anything t nublishing s;ociety news," observed th young man at the desk. taking the proffered n'nuscript and looking It over. "That's all right," w~g the reply.
