THE LORD'S
SUPPER
Sunday School Lesson lor Nov. 4,1906
Specially Prepared (or This Paper.
LESSON TEXT.—Matt. 26:17-30. Mem-
ory verses, 2fi and 27.
OOL.DEN TEXT.—"This do in reinem-
of mo."—1 Cor. 11:21.
TIME—Thursday evening, April 6, A.
I). 30. Five days after our last lesson,
and two days after the previous lessons
of this quarter.
PLACE.—An upper room in Jerusalem.
Comment and Suggestive Thought.
V. 17. "First day of ... un-
leavened bread." The feast of un-
leavened bread, lasting for seven days,
began Immediately after the Feast of
the Passover, which was celebrated
one day. During these eight days the
only bread eaten by Jews was that
which was made without the use of
yeast (leaven).
V. 18. "To such a man." The orig-
inal word indicates that the speaker
knew. "The Master saith." The man
was a disciple of Jesus. "My time is
at hand." "The time for the culmina-
tion of my sufferings on earth."
V. 19. "Disciples." Peter and John.
'As Jesus had appointed them." They
went to the city, recognized the man
by his carrying a pitcher of water
(Mark), and followed him home,
where they were shown to his guest-
chamber, an upper room furnished
with table, couches and cushions, pre-
pared by ceremonial cleansing for the
celebration of the sacred feasl.
"Made ready the passover." Between
three and five o'clock they took the
lamb to the temple, where It was
slain in the presence of a priest.
V. 20. "When the even was come."
Before sunset, which at that time of
the year would occur about six
o'clock. "Sat down." Reclined on
couches, according to the custom
which Jews had copied from the
Romans.
V. 21. "As they did eat." During the
eating of the Paschal feast. "Verily."
What he is about to say is of im-
portance. "One of you shall betray
me." These were the words of Jesus,
who was sorely- "troubled in spirit."
V. 22. "Exceeding sorrowful." The
disciples' sorrow was twofold. Their
Master was to be betrayed to the ene-
mies who sought his life, and one of
their number was the traitor. "Is it
I?" How much better this question
than "Is it he?"
V. 23. "He that dippeth . .
shall betray me." This did not point
out the traitor, since all dipped into
the same dish, but it emphasized the
fact, so terrible to the mind of an
oriental, that the betrayal would be
especially heinous because it was the
act of one who had eaten with him
whom he betrayed.
V. 24. "Goeth . . . as it Is writ-
ten." That Christ would give his life
for men was predetermined by the
counsel of God (Acts 2:23). It had
been prophesied by Old Testament
writers (Ps. 22; Isa. 53), but that di
not lessen the guilt of the free agents
who betrayed and crucified him. A
proverbial expression pointing to a
most terrible destiny.
Y. 25. "Judas answered." Judas
was moved to repeat the question
which the others had just asked: "Is
it I?" "Thou hast said." The com-
mon formula of assent, equivalent to
"You have stated the truth."
V. 26. "As they were eating." The
Passover Feast usually continued for
several hours. There was time for
free conversation. "Jesus took bread."
"Blessed it." He asked God's bless-
ing upon it, or, according to Luke,
gave thanks. "This is my body." This
represents my body.
V. 27. "The cup." The third or
fourth cup of the Passover service
"Gave thanks." From this the name
Eucharist, meaning thanksgiving, is
applied to the sacrament. "Drink ye
all of it." Jesus wishes all those who
love him to partake of this sacrament
and participate in the bijssing it sym-
bolizes.
V. 28. "This is my blood." Let this
represent my blood. "For many." For
all who will accept him as their
Saviour. "For the remission of sins."
One who truly takes Jesus to his heart
is delivered from the power of sin;
his life is made clean and pure.
V. 29. "Not drink henceforth." This
was his last meal with his disciples
before he was crucified. "Drink it
new." Will drink with you a new
kind of wine, at a new kind of supper
—even the marriage supper of the
Lai^'u (Rev. 19:7-9).
V. 30. "Sung a hymn." Doubtless
they chanted together the concludine
portion of the Hallel (Ps. 118).
Practical Points.
V. 17. The leaven of sin must be
east from the human heart In order
that the soul may keep the feast of
God.—I Cor. 5:7. S.
V. 18. Let us rejoice to yield all we
have and are to the service of Jesus
—Rom. 12:1.
V. 21. Jesus is daily wounded by his
professed friends.—Zech. 13:6; Heb.
6:6.
V. 22. Self-distrust is becoming to
the best of men. since only God's
grace keeps him from foulest sin.—
Ps. 139:23.

A woman's Health
depends so much upon her functions,
that the least upset of them affects her
whole system. It is the little things
that count, in woman's life and health.
The little pains, and other symptoms of
womanly disorder, soon lead up to big
things,—serious pains, serious diseases.
It is for just these ordinary, common,
womanly troubles, that the use of a
gentle, strengthening, female tonic, like
WINE
OF
Woman's Relief
has bee .1 found so successful, in thousands of cases,
in relieving and curing. "1 had been troubled with
female complaints for 12 months," writes Mrs.
Bettie Arp, of Ballplay, Tenn., "and although I was
under doctors' care for four months, they did but
little good. I took one bottle of Wine of Cardui
and one dollar's worth of Thedford's Black-
Draught, and now I am better. I believe Cardui
saved my life. We are poor people, but I shall
always keep it in the house." It relieves woman's
worst pains and regulates fitful functions. Try it.
