tirely to the Jews. The major jtheme, emphasized over and jover again, 1s that as fsrael has rejected her Messiah.: God has now rejected Israe!
Because we are all so familiar jwith the details of Christ's tri- jumphal entry into Jerusalem, we will not discuss it in today's lesson, except to note that again; ,in this instance, Jesus has full j knowledge of what is going to— happen on this day
The story of our Lord's curs- , ing the fig tree and causing it to wither is important only insofar |as it relates to the Consequences

man is exposed to the Gospel likewise, they are to love their
call. It is the cal which brings men to God, but the divine grace operating within the call admits men to the Kingdom irrespective of their former condition, wheth- er they were despised or admir- ed by the world. There is little doubt that the wedding gar- ments were symbolic of the garments of salvation, and even
less doubt that those who obdur- ;

Messiah would be? For the Jews |
there is but one answer— the son of David. This established, He asks how they accounted for the fact that David, in speaking of the Messiah. could call him “Lord.’’ This they could not an- swer without acknowledging the
fact that Jesus was both the son |
of David and the Son of God, so they withdrew and questioned Him no more.

Strange expression, that! It can mean that a person had a mental breakdown, or that he became a sort of fanatic; or it can mean simply that he got too interested in one thing to the exclusion of other important matters. And the very fact that our generation has coined such an idiom is indicative ° of the fact that we see such tragedy every day. ’ One of the vital contributions of religion to life is its*gift of balance.
