prisoner back to Pilate, perhaps feel
lng that he had had a sutliciency of
trouble In connection with the behead
lng of John the Baptist u year or so
before. The mutter was a joke be
tween Ilerod and Pilate—dealing with
the case of a man claimed to be so
dangerous that he must die thus, when
he manifestly was so pure and inno-
cent that tho weakest would be safe
with him.
Pilate's Perplexity Increased
Pilate was disappointed when Jesus
was brought back to his court. The
place shortly after his arrest, | cnso was nn unpleasant oye to settle.
but. on account of the Law re-
quiring a death sentence to be passed
hi daylight, a morning meeting of the
Sanhedrln was appointed, which, in a
perfunctory manner, con ti rued the
high priest's decision of the night be-
fore, that Jesus had, blasphemed the
Creator when he claimed that he had
come into the world In accord with the
Creator's long-promised plan that he
should redeem Israel and the world
from the death sentence, that in God's
due time lie might establish the Mes-
sianic Kingdom for the blessing of Is-
rael aud all the families of the earth.
The matter was rushed through lest
the gathered multitudes, who had
shouted, "Hosanna to the Sou of Da-
vid." when Jesus rode uimju the ass
live days before, should undertake
again to proclaim him king. No exe-
cution could take place during the
Passover week. And if Jesus were
held a prisoner they kuew not what
might happen to him or to them. They
had, therefore, but a few hours in
which to carry out the plan whi h they
believed would rid their country of a

The prisoner manifestly was innocent
of any crime, yet his accusers were
the most prominent men in the nation
and city over which he had charge.
Their good will must be preserved, if
possible, and they were evidently bent
on the murder of their innocent cap-
tive under the form of legality. What
a pity it is that religion has been so
often misrepresented by her votaries
In every nge of the world! A lesson
which we all should leani is to search
the motives and intentions of our own
hearts, that we be not led into th<
•rror of the wicked—Into violating the
rights of others und thus fighting
against God.
Pilate heard the uccusatlojis, realized
that there was 110 truth iu them, und
then gave his decision: I tind no fault
in Jesus, but, seeing that such u com-
motion has been created, I consider it
necessary in the interests of peace to
satisfy the unrighteous demands cS
the clamoring multitude. 1 will there-
fore have the prisoner whipped, al-
though 1 acknowledge he is not de-
serving of puuishineut. The whip-
ping will be iu his own interest, as
well as in the Interests of the peace
of the city, for by satisfying the clam-
or of the multitude the life of Jesus
j will be spared. As political decisions
go, this was a very fair decree. Magis-
trates recognize that absolute justice
is not always possible in dealing with
Imperfect conditions.
Hut the rulers would not be satisfied
with anything short of Jesus' death.
The rubble was exhorted to shout,
Crucify him! Crucify him! It seemed
imjiossibie for l'iiate to appreciate
that such u frenzy could be uroused
against so innocent a person. So he
inquired, W hat evil hath he done'/
liut the answer was, Crucify him!
Alas, how human passion can ignore
every principle of righteousness! To
add to Pilate's perplexity, his wife
now sent him word. Have nothing to
do with this just person, for I have
had a horrible dream which connects
itself with him.
As a last iesort Pilate caused Jesus
to be brought to a prominent place
where the multitude could all see him
aud theu he cried out to them, "Behold
the Man!** See the character of the
man you are willing to crucify. Note
that he has most kingly feutures, such
as none of your race possess—uor oth-
ers. Would you crucify the very best
j sample of your race? Consider; be
reasonable. Behold the Man! It has
for years bet 11 a custom with you that
the Government at this season release
a prisoner. So. then, consider that
Jesus has been coudcinucd and that
your conception of justice has beeu
satisfied ami that now I release him to
you. But the multitude cried out so
much the more. Crucify him! ltelease

The Jew ish ! utters were shrewd.
They kuew that tr&tson to liome was

In the fact that Jesus had spoken of
himself as a king they had the lever
wherewith to compel his crucifixion.
They used it, assuring Pilate that If be
let the prisoner go they would report
him to the Emperor. Pilate kuew that
he would have difficulty iu explaining
such a case and that the ltoman Gov-
ernment would agree with the decision
of Calaphas that one man should die
rather than have any commotlou in
their domiulon. Thus compelled. Pi-
late finally act eded and wrote the pa

to restore all mankind to full perfec-
tion and life under the terms of the
New Covenant, of which he will be
the Mediator. (Jer. 31:31.) At the
sixth hour. noon, darkness settled
down for three hours and then Jesus
died, crying, "My God. my God, why
hast thou forsaken me?" Iu order that
he might fully experience the weight
of Divine Justice which belonged to
the sinner, It was necessary that the
Father should hide himself from him,
as though he had been the sinner. This
temporary separation from the Father
was evidently the severest blow iu ail
of the Master's experience.

The Sanhed 1 in had authority to judge
the people along the lines of their rell
glon, but was prohibited from execut
lng the death penalty. Hence it was
necessary, after the condemnation of
the Sanhedrln, to take the case before
1 date, the ltomiin Governor. Realis-
ing that Pilote would not recogulze
blasphemy as a cause for death, the
charge against Jesus, before Pilate,
was a totally different one, namely,
that Jesus was n sedltionlst and raiser
of disturbance: that he claimed to be
a king and that his freedom wna in-
imical to the Interests of the Roman
Empire. The foolishness and the hy
pocrjsy of such a charge were too
transparent to need assertion. IMlate
perceived that for envy they were de-
livering him1—because he and his teach
lugs were having more influence with
the common people than could In* exer-
cised by the chief priests and scril es.
Pilate relieved himself of resi>onsibill
ty by declaring that since the home of
Jesus was Iu Galilee* King llerod, the
Governor of Galilee, should have the
Jurisdiction of the case, which he was
glad to get rid of

"STUDIES IN THE SCRIPTURES."
Six Wonderful Bible Keys, by
Pastor Russell of Brooklyn.
By now our readers doubtless feel
well acquainted with Pastor Russell
through his sermons, which we pub-
lish weekly In common with more than
three hundred of the leading Ameri-
can and Canadian journals.
We are advised that many of our
readers already have the Pastor's cele-
brated books in their homes and are
using them effectively, to their
light and Intellectual and spiritual
profit. It must be so, since there art
In circulation about three millions of
copies of the first volume, "The Dlvln*
Plan." The Bible and Tract Society
of Brooklyn, N. Y., publishes the vol-
umes at cost price so as to secure for
them a wide circulation. This brings
them within the reach of all.
Set I., three vols, handsomely
bound, over 1,100 pages, are supplied
post or express charges prepaid, for Si
Set II., three vols, to match, near
ly 1,900 pages, go for $1.20.
Such works, at such abnormally
low rates, naturally attract some
money-lovers who seek to sell for $10
(the two sets) what costs them but $2.20
The Bible and Tract Society desires
to warn all that it is unnecessary to
pay such a price;—that If Pastor Rus
sell's "Studies In the Scriptures" can
not be obtained otherwise more con-
veniently they will be pleased to sup

Such will be interested in the
"Southern Philosopher's" review
the first volume of Series I. He wrote
some time before he died: —
"It Is impossible to read this book
without loving the writer and ponder-
ing his wonderful solution of the great
mysteries that have troubled us all our
lives. There Is hardly a family to be
found that has not lost some loved on*
who died outside the church—outside
the plan of salvation, and. if Calvini m
be true, outside of all hope and insld.
of eternal torment and despair. \Y.
smother our feelings and turn awa>
from the horrible picture. We dare no:
deny the faith of our fathers, and yet
can it be possible that the good mothei
and the wandering child are forever
separated?—forever and forever?
"I believe it Is the rigidity of thesr
teachings that makes atheists and Infi
dels and skeptics—makes Christian
unhappy and brings their gray hair
down in sorrow to the grave—a lo.s
child, a lost soul! • • •
"This wonderful book makes no as
sertions that are not well sustained b\
the Scriptures. It is built up stone b>
stone, and upon every stone Is the texi
and it becomes a pyramid of God's love
and mercy, and wisdom
