Lesson i
(By E. O. SELLERS, Director of Evening i
Department, The Moody Bible Tnatltute,
Chicago.)
LESSON FOR JULY 5
* THE LABORERS IN THE VINE-I
YARD.
LESSON TEXT-Matt.
GOLDEN TEXT?"He muketh hia sun ;
to rise on the evil and on the good, and
sondeth rain on the Just and on the unjust."
Matt. 5:15.
This is another leBson connected !
witn our Lord's Perean ministry.
I. The Calle to Service, vv. 1-7. i
To get a correct setting we must return
to Peter's question. 19:17, wh'ch
in turn grew out of our Lord's dealings
with the rich young ruler (see
lesson of June 21st), and which called
from Jesus the exclamation. "It is |
hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom
of heaven" (19:23). At this the
disciples were exceedingly surprised
and exclaimed. "Who then can be ,
saved?" (v. 2f?). Jesus replied, "With
Ciod all tilings are possible." There- I
upon Peter said. "Lo, we have left
all and followed thee; what then shall
wo have?" The young man refused
to leave his all and follow, whereas
the disciples had and Peter seems lo
desire to know what advantage had j
accrued to them, what rewurd they !
were to have.
Jesus Answers Peter.
Jesus closed Ills answer to Peter by I
saying. "Many that are tlrst shall bo
last; and the last shall he first" (v.
30) and illustrates his reply by the
parable which is our lesson. Many
who do not stipulate a reward shall
bo first, while many who work and
work long, but work only for a reward,
will be last* Preceding this
Jesus definitely told Peter that the
twelve should bo associated with him
judging the twelve tribes of Israel
and that all who had left ail to follow
him should receive an hundredfold
and would inherit eternal life
(see chapter 19:28, 29). that is. they
would gain what the young ruler
sought by doing what he failed to do.
Historically this Is illustrated by the
Jew and Gentile. Matt. 8:11, 12: laike
13:28-30; Kom. 9:30-33.
Parable of the Kingdom.
Jesus Hays this is a parable of the
kingdom, hence the householder represents
God (cf. 12:27; 21:33, 43); tho
vineyard is the kingdom, see Isa. 2:7;
>. att. 21:33. The king is seeking
h borers to labor In his vineyard. He
I) Run in the early morning (v. 1)
a d with those whom he employed he
n.ade a dell ni to agreement. The
1? nny had a value of about seventeen
c nts and represents an average day's
w tge at that time. No one works for I
God without a Tair wage. Eph. 6:8;
!. -b. 6:10. Notice, before they were
s T to their tusk God called tliem.
'1 iie call was to service, Mark 1:17.
i'e goes out again at the third and
the sixth and the ninth hour, llnds
0 her laborers, making no definite
a "ret'incut with them but sends them
i. to his vineyard to work. He led
ii'om into the work and they trusted
1 in for wages. At the eleventh hour
1. i found idlers and askeil them the
r ason (v. 6j, they replied that no
(. le had employed them and them too
. 1 sends into the vineyard without any
L irgain us to wages. None except
t .use at the third hour hud any ini
niation as to their wage and they
x ere to receive "whatsoever Is right."
Those called at the first may put In
1 nger hours but produce a poorer
< lality of service than others called
a later time. The character of tho
h -rvlee Is of greater value tliun ihe
u.nount rendered and the higher the
TVice the ereatfr the nrftiinrtliiinilB
r ward. We get in this life abont
v hnt we work for.
II. The Reward of Service, vv. 8-16.
At the end of the day the Lord's
r toward rewards each man. beginning
'with the last and ending with the
1 rat (v. S). The first one is paid according
to the strict letter of the
agreement, and the last is likewise
paid in strict justice but in a most
liberal manner, lie, too, was worthy
for lie worked throughout all the
lime that was for him available,
(living an eijual reward to all was a
test of the character of those men
who entered the vineyard In the early
morning. The Lord's answer (vv.
Ll-15) is a four-fold one (1) I did
thee no wrong;" the contract had been
lived up to to the very letter. (-)
"it is my will to give, even as unto
thee;" the Ixird has a right to be
generous if he so desires. ("?> "It is
lawful for me to do what I will with
mine own;" God has a right to exerciso
such a prerogative and man has
no right to complain, itoin. 9:15-21.
(4) "Is thine eye evil because 1 am
good?" The ground of this complaint
was that of envy.
III.?The Teaching. We must bev
are of trying to niaku this parable
teach more than is written. To rightfully
understand our Lord's dealings
with those who serve him we must
consider others of his parables. This
one has two chief lessons; first, that
priority of time or even length of
service is not the all-essential requisite;
and second, that our fidelity to
and use of our opportunity is the
chief desideratum. Along with this
there are of course other lessons. In
laswrr *.o Peter's question our Lord
allowed him and his fellow disciples i
uial the last night he ftret

CANDIDATE FOR HERO MEDAL
Long-Suffering Plttsburgher Braved
Woman's Rage and Scorn in Putting
a Stop to Nuisance.
Maddened by the tickling of his
nose, the jabbing of his cheeks and
the menace to his eyesight from a
paint brush ornament which reached
from the hat of a woman occupying
the seat in front of him, a desperate
man on an Avalon car took the matter
of censoring the styles of women's
hats into his own bands?or
rather into his mouth, for he grabbed
with his teeth the brush on the end
of the long, bare stick which was
supposed to ornament the hat and
held it fast till Ihe end of his journey.
The wearer of the hat was powerless
to turn around and see the mean
man who thus had interfered with
the time-honored privilege of woman.
She squirmed and twisted, but
the relentless man still held her
feather in bis clenched teeth, while
everyone else on the car enjoyed her
discomfiture. When at last the man
left the car the glance she gave him
was one of mingled grief, scorn and
