By the First English District of the Ev. Luth. Joint Synod of Ohio and Other States. Iprcface m ^^^ HIS book is given to the Church Cj. in the behef that it will meet a felt want among our people. The project of issuing an edition of our Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal with mu- sic has been suggested, and urged, and discussed, for ten years or more. Be- fore anytliing more tangible was done, efforts were put forth to determine, by inviting advance subscriptions, whether the work could be undertaken without incurring too great financial risk. The repeated requests and appeals for such an edition of our Hymnal which, mean- while, have come from all quarters of our Synod afford assurance that the book is supplying an actual and wide- spread demand. Whatever shortcom- ings this first edition of our Hymnal with Music may possess, it cannot fairly be laid to its charge, either that the work was undertaken hastily and pre- maturely, or that the committees en- gaged upon the various tasks assigned spared aught of time and effort to make the book as complete and satisfactory as possible. A brief and summary state- ment of the history of the enterprise may suffice here. For details we would refer to the Proceedings of the Joint Synod of Ohio of 1902 and 1904. and to those of the First English District of 1896, 1898, and 1901 to 1906. At its convention in 1901 the First English District of the Joint Synod of Ohio and Other States resolved to pro- ceed with the work by appointing the late Rev. E. G. Tressel and Professor Edward Pfeiffer a committee to arrange the liturgical part of the Hymnal, with authority and instructions to appoint two other committees, one to select ad- ditional hymns, not exceeding seventy- five in number, and the other to ar- range the music for the hymns. The following brethren were appointed and performed the work assigned them : As the committee on hymns: Revs. W. E. Tressel, Wm. H. Price, G. W. Lose, W. L. Spielman, and J. Beck; and as the committee on music : Revs. Prof. Carl Ackermann, Ph. D., Wm. H. Lehmann, W. E. Schramm, and Mr. Edward F. Daume. The purpose and action of the Eng- lish District in the matter were reported to Joint Synod and approved by that body at its bi-ennial convention in 1902, with the provision that the new hymns to be selected, and to be added as an appendix to the hymns in our present Hymnal, be submitted in provisional copy to our pastors for criticism and referred for final approval to a com- mittee appointed by Joint Synod, of which President C. H. L. Schuette, D. D., was chairman. Of the seventy-five hymns submitted, this committee ap- proved forty-nine. At its annual convention in 1904 the English District completed the neces- sary arrangements for the publication of the Hymnal by resolving that an edition of 1,500 copies be published, and adding to the joint hymnal committee an executive committee, consisting of Pastors W. N. Harley and W. L. Spiel- man and Professor Pfeiffer, to attend to the work of publication, with the Rev. W. N. Harley as managing editor. (iii) IV preface While all the committees have faith- fully done their part, special acknowl- edgment is due to the members of the music committee and to the managing editor, without whose tireless and per- sistent labors and unwearied attention to innumerable details the work could not have been carried to a successful issue. The music committee was kindly assisted by Mrs. H. B. Adams, of Lima, Ohio, in looking over the harmony of the melodies. The Pilger Book Store, Reading, Pa., gave the committee per- mission to use one melody gratis. In the selection of melodies the committee sought to offer the best that could be found, though usage among us was not overlooked and frequently decided the selection. In regard to the liturgical forms and the insertion of the Introits, Graduals, and Collects in the appendix, we have been guided by the instructions of Joint oynod. The Order of Morning Service in the present Hymnal is the revised form approved by Joint Synod at its convention, in 1904. It differs only slightly from the old order, being more fully conformed to the order of our German Agende. The Order of Even- ing Service was prepared under instruc- tions of Joint Synod and duly approved by that body. It appears in this Hyn>- nal in two different settings. The first form follows the Gregorian or Plain Song melodies ; and for the harmoniza- tion of these melodies we are indebted, to Mr. Arthur Mees, of New York. This music has for some time been in use in some of our churches, and many have learned to appreciate and love it. For those who are unwilling to study and adopt this music another set- ting has been furnished and, with the approval of the English District, has been added in the present book. It fol- lows the Anglican music of the service and was kindly supplied by- the Rev. J. F. Ohl, Mus. D., of Philadelphia. It is earnestly hoped that this choice of musical settings, ancient and more mod- ern, will facilitate the introduction and use of the Service in our English con- gregations. May this edition of our Hymnal, wit its musical and devotional treasures and helps, afford the expected aid to our people in their worship both in their homes and in the services of God's house, and may its use redound to the edification of the Church and to the en- hancement of its worship to the glory of God. E. P. + + + Tlbe TLbix^ )£Mtton Notwithstanding the fact that the pub- lishing committee was induced by the in- creasing demands for the new Hymnal to double the edition ordered by the First English EHstrict nearly four years ago, printing .'J. 000 instead of 1,500, thus issuing in reality two editions at once, the supply was exhausted within a month afte^ its appearance. A word of caution may be in place with reference to the use of new melo- dies. Tliey should not at a public ser- vice be sprung on a congregation that is not prepared to sing them, but should be practiced beforehand. Such practice may be profitably undertaken in connec- tion with secondary services and meet- ings, or at the close of the morning service. In this way the congregation may be truly edified and advanced, not only in the beautiful art of singing, but in worshiping the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

Let us, therefore, confess our sins unto our Father, with sincere, humble, and obedient hearts, that we may obtain remission of the same, by His infinite goodness and mercy. Almighty and most merciful Father, imto whom all hearts are 0])en, and all desires are known, all whose commandments are just, necessary, and good ; we confess unto Thee, that we have erred and strayed from Thy ways like lost sheep. We have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts. We have offended against Thy holy laws. We have left undone those things which we ought to have done ; and we have done those things which we ought not to have done. But enter not, we beseech Thee, into judgment with us ; for in Thy sight shall no man living be justified. As Thou hatest nothing which Thou hast made, and desirest not the death of a sinner, but rather that he may turn from his wickedness and live, — have mercy, O Lord, upon us miserable offenders.

Forasmuch as we purpose to come to the Holy Supper ^^ ol' our Lord, wherein He giveth us His body to eat and His blood to drink, in order to strengthen and confirm our faith in Him, it becomes us diligently to examine ourselves, as St. Paul the Apostle exhorteth: ''Let a man examine hmiself, and so let him eat of that bread and drink of that cup." For this Holy Sacrament is instituted as a special means to strengthen and comfort the troubled conscience of those who confess their sins, and who hunger and thirst after righteousness. Therefore, whoso eateth of this bread, and drinketh of this cup, firmly believing the words of Christ, dwelleth in Christ, and Christ in him, and he hath eternal life. Let us also obey His command : "This do in remembrance of Me": showing His death, that He was delivered for our offenses, and raised again for our justification, and rendering unto Him most hearty thanks for the innumerable benefits procured unto us by the same, take up our cross and follow Him, and love one another even as He hath loved us. For we are all one bread, and one body, even as we eat of one bread and drink of one cup. tTbe Consecration ^ During the CONSECRATION the Minister shall turn toward the altar. /T^LORY be to Thee, O Lord Jesus Christ, Thou almighty and everlasting ^^ Son of the Father, that by the sacrifice of Thyself upon the cross, offered up once for all, Thou didst perfect them that are sanctified, and ordain, as a memorial and seal thereof. Thy Holy Supper, -in which Thou givest us Thy body to eat, and Thy blood to drink, that being in I'hee, even as Thou art in us, we may have eternal life, and be raised up at the last day. Most merciful and exalted Redeemer, we humbly confess that we are not worthy of the least of all the mercies, and of all the truth, which Thou hast shown unto us, and that, by reason of our sins, we are too impure and weak worthily to receive Thy saving gifts. Sanctify us, therefore, we beseech Thee, in our bodies and souls, by Thy Holy Spirit, and thus fit and prepare us to come to Thy Su|)per, to the glory of Thy grace, and to our own eternal good. And in whatsoever, through weakness, we do fail and come short, in true repentance and sorrow on account of our sins, in living faith and trust in Thy merits, and in an earnest purpose to amend our sinfiil lives, do Thou graciously supi)ly and grant, out of the fulness of the merits of Thy bitter sufferings and death ; to the end that we, who even in this present world desire to enjoy Thee, our only comfort and XXll Xlbe Or^cr ot /IDorunicj Scrxnce Savior, in the Holy Sacriiincnt, may at last see Thee face to face in Thy hcaNcnly kingdom, and dwell with Thee, and with all Thy saints, for ever and ever. Amen. Our Father, Who art in heaven ; Hallowed be Thy Name ; Thy kingdom come: Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven; Give us this day our daily bread ; And forgive us our tresi)asses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; And k'ad us not into tcmj)tation; P>ut deliver us from evil ; For Thine is the kingdom, and the jjower, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen. /^UR Lord Jesus Christ, in the night in which He was betrayed, took bread; ^■^ and when He had given thanks, He brake and gave it to His disciples, saying, Take, eat; this is My body, which is given for you; this do in remem- brance of Me. After the same manner, also, He took the cup, when He had supped, and when He had given thanks. He gave it to them, saying. Drink ye all of it ; this cu]) is the New Testament in My blood, which is shed for you, and for many, for the remission of sins; this do, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of Me. IP* RAISE, and honor, and glory, be unto Thee, O Christ! The bread which we bless is the communion of Thy holy body, and the cup which we bless is the communion of Thy holy blood. O Thou everlasting Son of the Father, sanctify us by Thy Holy Spirit, and make us worthy partakers of Thy sacred body and blood, that we may be cleansed from sin and made one with all the members of Thy Church in heaven and on earth. Lord Jesus! Thou hast bought us: to Thee will we live, to Thee will we die, and Thine will we be. forever. Amen. Zbc Bcinus 2)ci l -iU. a m O Chri.st.

I XXX XTbe 0r^cr of /iDoruiiiti Service ^bc atbanasian CrccD TITIl ^^OSOEVER will be saved, before all things it is necessary that he hold ^^'^^ the Catholic [true Christian] Faith, 2. \\'hich Faith except every one do keep whole and iindefiled, without doubt he shall perish everlastingly. 3. And the Catholic [true Christian] Faith is this : that we worship one God in Trinity, and lYinity in Unity; 4. Neither confounding the Persons, nor dividing the Substance. 5. For there is one Person of the Father, another of the Son, and another of the Holy (ihost. 6. But the Godhead of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, is all one: the Glory Equal, the Majesty Coeternal. 7. Such as the Father is, such is the Son, and such is the Holy Ghost. 8. The Father uncreate, the Son uncreate, and the Holy Ghost uncreate. 9. The Father incomprehensible, the Son incomprehensible, and the Holy Ghost incomprehensible. 10. The Father eternal, the Son eternal, and the Holy Ghost eternal. 11. And yet they are not three Eternals, but one Eternal. 12. As there are not three uncreated, nor three incomprehensibles : but one uncreated and one incomprehensible. 13. So likewise the Father is Almighty, the Son Almighty, and the Holy (ihost Almighty. 14. And yet they are not three Almighties, but one Almighty. 15. So the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Ghost is God. 16. And yet they are not three Gods, but one God. 17. So likewise the Father is Lord, the Son Lord, and the Holy Ghost Lord. 18. And yet not three Lords, but one Lord. 19. For like as wc are comijelled by the Christian X'criiy: to acknowledge every Person by Himself to be God and Lord; So are wc forbidden by the Catholic [Christian] Religion to say. There be three Gods, or three Lords. 20. 'I'he Father is made of none: neither created nor begotten. 21. The Son is of the Father alone: not made, nor created, but begotten. 22. The Holy Ghost is of the Father, and of the Son: neither made, nor created, nor begotten, but proceeding. 23. So there is one Father, not three I'Mthcrs; one Son. not three Sons; o«e Holy (ihost, not three Holv Ghosts XTbe ©r^er ot" /IDoruiuii Serv^lce xxxi 24. And in this Trinity none is before, or after other : none is greater, or less than another ; 25. But the whole three Persons arecoeternal together, and coeciual : So that in all things, as is aforesaid, the Unity in Trinity, and the Trinity in Unity, is to be worshipped. 26. He therefore that will be saved must thus think of the Trinity. 27. Furthermore, it is necessay to Everlasting Salvation that we also believe rightly the Incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ. 28. For the right Faith is, that we believe and confess that our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is God and Man ; 29. God, of the Substance of the Father, begotten before the worlds: and Man, of the Substance of His mother, born in the world ; 30. Perfect God, and perfect Man, of a reasonable soul and human flesh subsisting. 31. Equal to the Father, as touching His Godhead: and inferior to the Father, as touching His Manhood. 32. Who although He be God and Man, yet He is not two, but one Christ; 33. One, not by conversion of the Godhead into flesh, but by taking the Manhood into God ; 34. One altogether, not by confusion of Substance, but by Unity of Person. 35. For as the reasonable soul and flesh is one man, so God and Man is one Christ; 36. Who suffered for our Salvation, descended into hell, rose again the third day from the dead. 37. He ascended into heaven; He sitteth on the right hand of the Father, God Almighty ; from whence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. 38. At whose coming all men shall rise again with their bodies, and shall give account for their own works. 39. And they that have done good shall go into life everlasting: and they that have done evil, into everlasting fire. 40. This is the Catholic [true Christian] Faith: which except a man believe faithfully, he cannot be saved. practical Su(?iiCi5tiont5 "I) V> Millboard, When the church is supplied with a hytnnboard, — and it were wtll >f rvtry conj^rc^^ation had one, — this obviates the necessity of announcinj^ the hvnins, ps;ihns and special versicles.

And calls the souls with guilt oppressed To come and find eternal rest. 3 Tt brings the Savior's righteousness Our .souls to robe in royal dress ; Vxmw all our guilt it brings release, And gives llie lr()ul)led conscience peace. 4 It is the ]>owcr of God to save From sin and vSatan and the grave ; It works the faith which firmly clings To all the treasures which it brings, 5 It bears to all the tidings glad. And bids their hearts no more be sad ; The heavy laden soul it cheers. And banishes their guilty fears. 6 May we in faith its tidings learn. Nor thanklessly its blessings spurn ; May we in faith its truth confess, .\nd praise the Lord our righteousness. Rev. Matthias \joy, D. D.. 1880 i84 Xlbc miox^ BADEA S. :M.

And shall inherit heaven. To show us this He hath His Word With signs and symbols given ; On Jordan's banks was plainly heard The Father's voice from heaven : "This is my well beloved Son, In whom my soul delighteth. Hear HimI " Yea, hear Him, every one, Wlien He Himself inviteth. Hear and obey His teaching. 6 Who in this mercy hath no faith, Nor aught therein discerneth, Is yet in sin, condemned to death And fire that ever burnetii ; His holiness avails him not, * Nor aught which he is doing, His birth-sin brings it all to naught. And maketh sure his ruin ; Himself he cannot succor. 4 In tender manhood, God the Son In Jordan's water standeth ; The Holy Ghost from His own throne In dove-like form descendetli : That thus the truth be not denietl. — Xor should our faith e'er waver, — That all Three Persons e'er preside .\t Baptism's holy laver, And dwell with the believer. Blind sense but water sees, and spurns . " Pray, how can water save us? " Faith marks the Word, and well di.scerns Christ's merits that here lave us ; F'aith sees this cleansing fountain red With the dear blcKxl of Jesus, Which, both from sin inherited From fallen .Xdam frees us.

That I for them my blood have shed, Are free from guilt and judgment dread. 6 The words which absolution give Are His who died that we might live ; The minister whom Christ has sent Is but His humble instrument. 7 However great our sin may be. The absolution sets us free. Appointed by God's own dear Son To bring the pardon He has won. 8 When ministers lay on their hands, Absolved by Christ the sinner stands; He who by grace the Word believes. The purchase of His blood receives. 9 This is the Power of Holy Keys, It binds and doth again release ; The Church retains them at her side. Our Mother, and Christ's holy Bride, 10 Let those who stings of conscience bear, Whom sin would drive to dark despair. To Jesus come with trustful mind, And peace in absolution find. 11 All praise. Eternal Son, to Thee, For absolution full and free, In which Thou showest forth Thy grace ; From false indulgence guard our race. 12 Praise God, the Father and the vSon And Holy Spirit, Three in One, As 'twas, is now, and so shall be, World without end, eternally.

Proclaim the wonders God hath done, How His right arm the vict'ry won ; Right dearly it hath cost Him. 6 The Son obeyed right cheerfully, And, born of virgin mother, Came down upon the earth to me. That He might be my brother : His mighty power doth work unseen, He came in fashion poor and mean. And took the devil captive. Fast bound in Satan's chains I lay. Death brooded darkly o'er me, Sin was my torment night and day. In sin my mother bore me ; Deeper and deeper still I fell, Life had become a living hell, So firmly sin possessed me. He sweetly said : Hold fast by me, I am thy Rock and Castle, Thy Ransom I myself will be. For thee I strive and wrestle : For I am with thee, I am thine And evermore thou shalt be mine, ' The foe shall not divide us. 3 My good works so imperfect were, They had no power to aid me ; My will God's judgments could not bear, Yea, prone to evil made me : Grief drove me to despair, and I Had nothing left me but to die ; To hell I fast was sinking. 8 The foe shall shed my precious bloody Me of my life bereaving ; All this I suffer for thy good, Be steadfast and believing : Life shall from death the vict'ry win, My innocence shall bear thy sin. So art thou blest forever. Then God beheld my wretched state With deep commiseration ; He thought upon His mercy great. And willed my soul's salvation ; He turned to me a Father's heart; Not small the cost I to heal my smart. He gave His best and dearest. 9 Now to my Father I depart. From earth to heaven ascending. Thence heavenly wisdom to impart, The Holy Spirit sending : He shall in trouble comfort thee, Teach thee to know and follow me, And to the truth conduct thee. He spoke to His beloved Son : 'Tis time to take compassion : Then go, bright Jewel of my crown, And bring to man salvation ; From sin and sorrow set him free. Slay bitter death for him, that he May live with Thee forever. 10 What I have done and taught, teach thou^ My ways forsake thou never, So shall my kingdom flourish now. And God be praised forever : Take heed lest men with base alloy The heavenly treasure should destroy ; This counsel I bequeath thee. Dr. Martin I.uther, 1523.

Employed on proofs of love immense \ The King of Glory stoops to me, The richest food remains unseen, My spirit's life and strength to be. And highest gifts appear how mean ! 3 In consecrated wine and bread No eye perceives the myst'ry dread. Rut Jesus' word is strong and clear : Mv bodv and niv blood are here. 5 But here we have no boon of earth. And faith alone discerns its worth : The Word, not sense, must be our guide, And faith assure, since sight's denied. 6 Lord ! show us still that Thou art good, And grant us evermore this food ; Give faith to ev'ry wav'ring soul.

In all his flower and prime. o Vain race of mortals, see them move Like shadows o'er the plain : They rage and strive, desire and love, But all the noise is vain. 4 Some walk in honor's gaudy show ; Some dig for golden ore ; They toil for whom they do not know, And straight are seen no more. 5 What should I wish or wait for then, From creatures, earth, and dust? They make our expectations vain, And disappoint our trust. 6 Now I resign my earthly hope, My fond desires recall ; I give my mortal int'rest up, And make my God my all.

And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found Him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship Him also. When they had heard the king, they departed ; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy. And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshipped Him: and when they had opened their treasures, they pre- sented unto Him gifts : gold and frank- incense and myrrh.

And it came to pass, when the devil was gone out, the dumb spake; and the people wondered. But some of them said, He casteth out dev- ils through Beelzebub, the chief of the devils. And others, tempting Him, sought of Him a sign from heaven. But He, knowing their thoughts, said unto them. Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth. H Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub. And if I by Beel- zebub cast out devils, by whom do your sons cast them out? therefore shall they be your judges. But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you. When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace: but when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armor wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils. He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth. When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest ; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out. And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished. Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there : and the last state of that man is worse than the first. And it came to pass, as He spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto Him, Blessed is the womb that bare Thee, and the paps which Thou hast sucked.

For it is written, that .'\braham had two Untrolts, Collects anb (3rat)ual5 23 sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a free woman. But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh ; but he of the free woman was by promise. Which things are an alle- gory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar. For tliis Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her chil- dren. But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all. For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not : for the deso- late hath many more children than she which hath an husband. Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the chil- dren of promise. But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now. Nevertheless what saith the Scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son : for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.

Moreover, whom He did predestinate, them He also called; and whom He called, them He also justified; and whom He jus- tified, them He also glorified. What shall we then say to these things?

And a great multitude fol- lowed Him, because they saw His mir- acles which He did on them that were diseased. And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there He sat with His disciples. And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh. When Jesus then lifted up His eyes, and saw a great company come unto Him, He saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat? (And this He said to prove him: for He Himself knew what He would do.) Philip answered 24 Xlbe Scripture Xcssons Fourth and Fifth Sunday in Lent Him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a httle. One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto Him, There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many? And Jesus said. Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand. And Jesus took the loaves; and when He had given thanks, He distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would. When they were filled, He said unto His disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost. Therefore they gathered them together, and tilled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten. Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that Prophet that should come into the world.

Wherefore, whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damna- tion to himself, not discerning the Lord's body. For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

After that He poureth water into a basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith He was girded. Then cometh He to Simon Peter; and Peter saith unto Him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet? Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do, thou know- est not now ; but thou shalt know here- after. Peter saith unto Him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus an- swered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. Simon Peter saith unto Him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit; and ye are clean, but not all. For He knew who should betray Him ; therefore said He, Ye are not all clean. So after He had washed their feet, and had taken His garments, and was set down again. He said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you? Ye call me Master and Lord : and ye say well ; for so I am.

Who hatli Friday believed our report? And to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? For he shall grow up before him as a ten- der plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeli- ness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sor- rows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afHicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him ; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the in- iquity of us all. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth. He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? For he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken. And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death ; because he had done no vio- lence, neither was any deceit in his mouth. Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou .shalt make his soul an offer- ing for ain, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleas- ure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong ; be- cause he hath poured out his soul unto death : and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors. (3ra^ual Minister: He hath made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him. Oospcl: 3obn 18:1=40; 1^:1=42 OR The Passion History When Jesus had spoken these words, He went forth with His disciples over the brook Cedron, where was a gar- den, into the which He entered, and His disciples. And Judas also, which betrayed Him, knew the place: for Jesus ofttimes resorted thither with His disciples. Judas then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons. Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon Him, went forth, and said unto them. Whom seek ye? They answered Him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed Him, stood with them. As soon then as He had said unto them, I am He. they went backward, and fell to the ground. Then asked He them again. Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus answered, I have told you that I am He: if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way : That the saying might be fulfilled, which He spake. Of them which thou gavest me have I lost none. Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it. and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus. Then said Jesus unto Peter, put up thy sword into the sheath : the cup which Untroits, Collects anD Gra^uals 29 my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it? Then the band and the cap- tain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound Him, and led Him away to Annas first; for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year. Now Caiaphas was he, which gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people. And Simon Peter fol- lowed Jesus, and so did another dis- ciple : that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest. But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter. Then saith the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He saith, I am not. And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals, for it was cold ; and they warmed themselves : and Peter stood with them, and warmed himself. The high priest then asked Jesus of His dis- ciples, and of His doctrine. Jesus an- swered him, I spake openly to the world ; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort ; and in secret have I said nothing. Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me, what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said. And when He had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so? Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me? Now Annas had sent Him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest. And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore unto him. Art not thou also one of His disciples? He denied it, and said, I am not. One of the ser- vants of the high priest, being his kins- Good man whose ear Peter cut off, saith, Friday Did not I see thee in the garden with Him? Peter then denied again: and immediately the cock crew. Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judg- ment hall, lest they should be defiled ; but that they might eat the passover. Pilate then went out unto them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man? They answered and said unto him, If He were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered Him up unto thee. Then said Pilate unto them. Take ye Him, and judge Him ac- cording to your law. The Jews there- fore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death : that the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which He spake, signifying what death He should die. Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto Him, Art Thou the King of the Jews? Jesus answered Him, Sayest thou this thing of thy- self, or did others tell it thee of me? Pilate answered. Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered Thee unto me : what hast Thou done? Jesus answered. My king- dom is not of this world: if my king- dom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be de- livered to the Jews : but now is my kingdom not from hence. Pilate there- fore said unto Him, Art Thou a king then? Jesus answered. Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice. Pilate saith unto Him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in Him no fault at all. But ye have 30 TLbc Scripture Xessons Good ^ custom, that I should release unto Friday you one at the passover : will ye there- fore that I release unto you the King of the Jews? Then cried they all again, saying. Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Carabbas was a robber. Bnotbcr Ooepcl : 3obn 19 Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged Him. And the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns, and put it on His head, and they put on Him a purple robe, and said, Hail, King of the Jews ! And they smote Him with their hands. Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring Him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in Him. Then came Je- sus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them. Behold the man ! When the chief priests therefore and officers saw Him, they cried out, saying, Crucify Him, crucify Him. Pilate saith unto them. Take ye Him, and crucify Him : for I find no fault in Him. The Jews answered him. We have a law, and by our law He ought to die, because He made Himself the Son of God. When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid; and went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art Thou? But Jesus gave him no answer. Then saith Pilate unto Him. Spcakest Thou not unto me? Knowest Thou not that I have power to crucify Thee, and have power to re- lease Thee? Jesus answered. Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin. And from thenceforth Pilate sought to re- lease Him: but the Jews cried out. say- ing. If thou let this man go, thou art not Cxsar's friend : whosoever makcth himself a king speaketh against Caesar. When Pilate therefore heard that say- ing, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha. And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King! But they cried out. Away with Him, away with Him, crucify Him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered. We have no king but Caesar. Then delivered he Him therefore unto them to be cruci- fied. And they took Jesus, and led Him away. And He bearing His cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the He- brew Golgotha : where they 'crucified Him, and two others with Him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst. And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF T?IE JEWS. This title then read many of the Jews : for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin. Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not. The King of the Jews : but that he said, I am King of the Jews. Pilate an- swered. What I have written I have written. Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout. They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which saith. They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did. Now there stood by the cross of Jesus His mother, and His mother's sister. Mary the wife of Cleo- phas. and Mary Magdalene. When Je- Ifntroits, Collects ant) Gra^uals 31 sus therefore saw His mother, and the disciple standing by, whom He loved, He saith unto His mother, Woman, be- hold thy son! Then saith He to the disciple. Behold thy mother ! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home. After this, Jesus know- ing that all things were, now accom- plished, that the Scripture might be ful- filled, saith, I thirst. Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar : and they filled a sponge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to His mouth. When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar. He said, It is finished; and He bowed His head, and gave up the ghost. The Jews therefore, because it was th^ preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath day, (for that Sabbath day was .-'n high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that thev might be taken away. Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was cruci- fied with Him. But when they came to Jesus, and saw that He was dead already, they brake not His legs : but one of the soldiers with a spear pierced His side, and forthwith came there out blood i>nd water. And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true; and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe. For these things were done, that the Scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of Him shall not be broken. And again another Scripture s'aith. They shall look on Him whom they pierced. And after this Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, be- sought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus : and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus. And there came also Nicodemus, (which at the first came to Jesus by night,) and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight. Then took they the Good body of Jesus, and wound it in linen Friday clothes with the spices, as the manner ^^ of the Jews is to bury. Now in the ^ place where He was crucified there was a garden ; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid. There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand. "i* * + Baster Untroit When I awake, I am still with Thee. Hallelujah !

And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre? And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away : for it was very great. And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment ; and they were affrighted. And he saith unto them. Be not affrighted : ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified; He is risen; He is not here: behold the place where they laid Him. But go your way, tell His disciples and Peter that He goeth before you into Galilee : there shall ye see Him, as He said unto you.

And they talked to- gether of all these things which had happened^ And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and rea- soned, Jesus Himself drew near, and went with them. But their eyes were holden that they should not know Him. And He said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad? And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto Him, Art Thou only a stranger in Jeru- salem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days? And He said unto them, What things? And they said unto Him, Con- cerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word be- fore God and all the people : and how the chief priests and our rulers deliv- ered Him to be condemned to death, and have crucified Him. But we trusted that it had been He which should have redeemed Israel : and besides all this, to-day is the third day since these things were done. Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre; and when they found not His body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that He was alive. And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said : but Him they saw not. Then He said unto them. O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken ! Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into His glory? And be- ginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded unto them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Him- self. And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went : and He made as though He would have gone farther. But they constrained Him, saying, Abide with us ; for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And He went in to tarry with them. And it came to pass, as He sat at meat with them, He took bread, and blessed it, and brake and gave to them. And their eyes were opened, and they knew Him ; and He vanished out of their sight. And they said one to another. Did not our heart burn within us, while He talked with us by the way, and while He opened to us the Scriptures? And they rose up the same hour, and re- turned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them, saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Si- mon.

And when He had so said. He showed unto them His hands and His side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord. Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you. And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and saith unto them. Receive ye the Holy Ghost : whosesoever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whosesoever sins ye retain, they are retained.

Let him that is taught in the word com- municate unto him that teacheth in all good things. Be not deceived; God is not mocked; for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall lie also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption ; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them ; but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. While the bridegroom tar- ried, they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight there was a cry made, Be- hold, the bridegroom cometh : go ye out to meet him. Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us i 68 TLbc Scripture Xcssons Twenty- Seventh Sunday After Trinity and The Festival of Harvest of your oil; for our lamps arc gone out. But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you : but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came ; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage : and the door was shut. Afterward 'came also the other virgins, saying. Lord.

And Je;5us said unto His disciples: Ye know that after two days is the feast of the pass- over, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified. Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas, and consulted that they might take Je- sus by subtilty, and kill Him; for they feared the people. But they said. Not on the feast day, lest there be an up- roar among the people. Now when Je- sus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, there came unto Him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on His head, as He sat at meat. But w'hen His disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying. To what purpose is this waste? For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor. When Jesus understood it, He said unto them. Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me. For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always. For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial. Verily I say unto you. Wheresoever this gospel shall be I)reached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her. Then entered Satan into Judas, sur- namcd Iscariot. being of the number of the twelve. And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray Him unto them, and said unto them : What will ye give me, and I will deliver Him unto you ? And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money. And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray Him unto them in the absence of the multitude. Now on the first day of the feast of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed, the dis- ciples came to Jesus, saying unto Him : Where wilt Thou that we prepare for Thee to eat the passover ? And He sent Peter and John, saying : Go into the city; and behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water ; follow him into the house where he entereth in. And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house. The Master saith unto thee, my time is at hand ; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples. Where is the guest- chamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples? And he shall s'low you a large upper room furnished : there make ready. And they went, and found as He had said unto them : and they made ready the passover. And when the hour was come. He sat down, and the twelve apostles with Him. And He said unto them. With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer; for I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. And He took the cup. and pave thanks, and said. Take this, and divide passion iDlstori? 77 it among yourselves, for I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom. And as they were eating in the night in which He was betrayed, Jesus took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave it unto His disciples, saying, Take eat, this is my body, which is given for you; this do in remembrance of me. Likewise, also He took the cup after supper, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying : Drink ye all of it : this cup is the new testament in my blood which is shed for you and for many, for the remission of sins. This do, as often as ye drink it, in remem- brance of me. And they all drank thereof. Now before the feast of the pass- over, when Jesus knew that His hour was come that He should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved His own which were in the world, He loved them unto the end. And sup- per being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray Him: Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He was come from God, and went to God: He riseth from supper, and laid aside His garments; and took a towel, and girded Himself. After that He poureth water into a basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith He was girded. Then cometh He to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto Him, Lord, dost Thou wash my feet? Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now : but thou shalt know here- after. Peter saith unto Him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. Simon Peter saith unto Him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit : and ye are clean, but not all. For He knew who should betray Him : therefore said He, Ye are not all clean. So after He had washed their feet, and had taken His garments, and was set down again. He said unto them. Know ye what I have done to you? Ye call me Master and Lord : and ye say well; for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one an- other's feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. Verily, verily, I say unto you. The servant is not greater than his lord: neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him. If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them, I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen; but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me. Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am He. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whom- soever I send receiveth me ; and he that receiveth me receiveth Him that sent me. When Jesus had thus said, He was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said. Verily, verily, I say unto you, one of you, which eateth with me, shall bt- tray me. But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table. And the disciples were exceeding sorrowful and looked one on another, doubting of whom He spake. And they began to enquire • among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing, and to say unto Him one by one. Is it I? and another. Is it I? And He answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dippeth with me in the dish. The Son of man in- deed goeth, as it is written of Him : but woe to that man by whom the Son 78 passion Ir^istorv of man is betnyrd! good were it for that man if he had never been born. Then Judas, which betrayed llim, ans- wered and said. Master, is it I ? He said unto him. Thou hast said. Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of His disciples, whom Jesus loved, Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should -ask who it should be of whom He spake. He then lying on Jesus' breast saith unto Him, Lord, who is it? Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when He had dipped the sop, He gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly. Now no man at the table knew for what intent He s'pake this unto him. For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor. He then having received the sop went immediately out : and it was night. And Judas having gone out, there was also a strife anmng them, which of them should be accounted the greatest. And He said unto them. The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them arc called benefactors. But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, a^ he that doth serve. For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth. Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations. And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed mito me; that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. Tesus said. Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in Him. li God be glorified in Him, God shall also glorify Him in Himself, and shall straightway glorify Him. Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me; and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come ; so now I say to you. A new commandment I give unto you. That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love to one another. Simon Peter said unto Him, Lord, whither goest Thou? Jesus an- swered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt fol- low me afterwards. Peter said unto Him, Lord, why cannot I follow Thee now ? I w^ll lay down my life for Thy sake, Jesus answered him. Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat : but I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not : and when thou art con- verted, strengthen thy brethren. And he said unto Him, Lord, I am ready to go with Thee, both into prison, and to death. And He said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me. And He said unto them. When I sent you without purse and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye anything? And they said, Nothing, Then said He unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip : and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me: And He was reckoned among the transgres- sors: for the things concerning me have an end. And they said : Lord, behold, here are two swords. And He said unto them, It is enough. passion Ibistor^ 79 Cbaptcr I THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS A RECORD OF THE THINGS WHICH HAPPENED TO CHRIST IN THE GARDEN. Xcsson I Christ goes from Jerusalem into the mount of Olives, and tells His dis- ciples how they shall forsake Him. And when they had sung a hymn, Jesus came out, and went, as He was wont, to the mount of OHves, and His disciples also followed Him. Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night : for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad. But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Ga- lilee. Peter answered and said unto Him, Though all men shall be offended be- cause of Thee, yet will I never be offended. Jesus said unto him, Verily, I say unto thee, that this night before the cock crow, thou shalt Lcny me thrice. Peter said unto Him, Though I should die with Thee yet will I not deny Thee. Likewise also said all the disciples. Xcsson II The internal sufferings and ardent prayer of Christ. Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, where was a garden, into the which He entered, and His disciples. And Judas also, which betrayed Him, knew the place: for Jesus ofttimes resorted thither with His disciples. And Jesus saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder. And He'taketh with Him Peter, and James and John, the two sons of Ze- bedee, and began to be sorrowful, and very heavj'. And saith unto them. My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry ye here and watch. And He went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from Him. And He said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto Thee : take away this cup from me : nevertheless not what I will, but what Thou wilt. And He cometh, and findcth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon: sleepest thou? couldest thou not watch one hour? Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is ^weak. He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, Thy will be done. And when He returned, He found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy), neither wist they what to ans- wer Him. And He left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying, Father, if Thou be will- ing, remove this cup from me : never- theless not my will, but Thine be done. And there appeared an angel unto Him from heaven, strengthening Him. And being in an agony He prayed more ear- nestly : and His sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground. And when He rose up from prayer, and was come to His dis- ciples, He found them sleeping for sor- row, and saith, Sleep on now, and take your rest. Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me. But pray, lest ye fall into temptation. Xcsson III Christ betrayed by Judas. And while He yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and 80 lPas9ion l^istor^? staves, from the cliicf priests and elders of the people. Now he that betrayed Him gave them a sign, saying, Whom- soever I shall kiss, that same is He; hold Him fast. Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon Him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek ye? They answered Him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am He. And Judas also, which betrayed Him, stood with them. As soon then as He had said unto them, I am He, they went backward, and fell to the ground. Then asked He them again. Whom seek* ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth. Je- sus answered, I have told you that I am He: if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way: that the saying might be fulfilled, which He spake, Of them which Thou gayest me ha\*e I lost none. And Judas drew near unto Jesus to kiss Him. And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, Master; and kissed Him. And Jesus said unto him. Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came tfiey, and laid hands on Je- sus, and took Him. Xcsson IV Christ, not p'Cnnitting, Himself to be defended by the szcord, is deserted by His disciples. When they which were about Him saw what would follow, they said unto Him, Lord, shaM we smite with the sword? Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right car. The servant's name was Malchus. .\nd Jesus answered and said. Suffer ye thus far, and said to Peter, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword .shall perish with the sword. Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and He shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels? But how then shall the Scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be? And He touched his ear, and healed him. Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to Him, Be ye come out as against a thief, with swords and staves? When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness. But all this was done, that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook Him, and fled. And there followed Him a certain young man, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body; and the young men laid hold on him : and he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked. + + + Cbapter ii EMBR.\CING THE THIXGS WHICH HAP- PENED TO CHRIST AT THE SANHE- DRIM, IN THE HOUSE OF CAIA PHAS. THE HIGH PRIEST. Icgdon I Christ is botmd, is first led to Anitas, and afterwards to Caiaphas, the High Priest. There He is examined con- cerning His disciples and His doc- trine, and is struck iu the face. Then the band and the captain and the officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound Him, and led Him away to Annas first: f(»r he was faihor-in-law to Caia- phas, which was the high priest that same year. Now Caiaphas was he which gave counsel to the Jews, that, it was expedient that one man should die for the people. -And they that had passion tbistor^ 81 laid hold* on Jesus led Him away to Caiaphas the hight priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled. And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple, unto the high priest's palace. And that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest. But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter. And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals; for it was cold : and they warmed them- selves: and Peter stood with them, and warmed himself, to see the end. The high priest then asked Jesus of His disciples, and of His doctrine. Je- sus answered him, I spake openly to the world : I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort ; and in secret have I said nothing. Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me, what I have said unto them ; behold, they know what I said. And when He had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest Thou the high priest so? Jesus answered him. If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil : but if well, why smitest thou me? Now An- nas had sent Him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest. lesson II Concerning the fall and conversion of Peter. But Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. . And a maid of the high priest saw Peter warming himself, and looking upon him said : And thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee; art not thou also one of this man's disciples? But he denied before them all, saying : Woman, I am not, I know Him not; neither understand I what thou sayest. And soon after the first denial, when he went out into the porch, the cock crew. And another maid saw him, and said unto them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth. They said therefore unto him, Art not thou, also one of His disciples? And after a little while another saw him, and said. Thou art also of them. And again he denied with an oath and said, Man, I am not, I do not know the man. And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed with them that stood by saying: Thout art a Galilean, for thy speech agreeth there- to ! One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with Him? But he be- gan to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of whom ye speak. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew. And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter re- membered the word of the Lord, how He had said unto him. Before the cock crow thou shalt deny me thrice. And Peter went out and wept bitterly. Xesson III Christ is accused by false zuitnesses, Old is condemned to death by the High Priest as a blasphemer. And the chief priests and the ciders and all the council sought for witness against Jesus to put Hiin to death ; and found none. For many bare false wit- ness against Him, but their witness agreed not together. And there arose at last two, and bare false witness against Him, saying. We heard Him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without 82 passion l^istom liniuU, Rut neither so did tlieir witness tigrce together. And the high priest stood up in tlie midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Answerest Thou nothing? what is it which these witness against Thee? But He held His peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked Him. and said unto Him, Art Thou the Christ, tlie Son of the Blessed? I ad- jure Thee by the living God, that Thou tell us whether Thou be the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus saith unto him. Thou hast said, I am. Nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blas- phemy: what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard His blasphemy. What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death. And the men that held Jesus, mocked Him, and some began to spit on Him, and to cover His face, and to buffet Him, and some, mostly servants, when they had blindfolded Him. struck Him on the face, saying: Prophesy, who is it that smote Thee? And many other things blasphemously spake they against Him. When the morning was come, all the high priests, scribes, and the elders of the people, together with all the council, took counsel against Jesus to put Him to death: and led Him into their council, saying, Art Thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them. HI tell you, ye will not be- lieve: and if I also a.sk you. ye will not answer me, nor let me go. Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God. Then said they all, Art Thou then the Son of God? And He said unto them. Ve say that I am. And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of TTi- own mniifh Cbaptcr in THIS CH.APTER EMUR.\CES THE HISTORY OF THOSE THINGS WHICH HAri'ENED TO CHRIST IN THE JUDGMENT HALL. BEFORE PILATE THE GOVERNOR. Xcsson I Clirist is dcUi'crcd unto Pilate, the Gov- cr)ior, zi'hcn Judas, the betrayer, sees this he falls into desfair. And the whole multitude of them arose, and when they had bound Christ, they led Him from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment and delivered Him to Pontius Pilate, the governor; and it was early. Then Judas, which had be- trayed Him, when he saw that He was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, saying; I have sinned, in that I have betrayed innocent blood. And they said. What is that to us? see thou to that. And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple and departed, and went and hanged himself, and burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out. And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, be- cause it is the price of blood. And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in. And it was known to all the dwellers at Jerusalem ; inasmuch as that field is called, in their proper tongue. Acel- dama, that is to say, The field of blood, unto this day. Thus was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy, the pro- phet, saying. And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of Him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value, and gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me. passion Ibtstot^ 88 Xcsdon II Christ is accused before Pilate and offers a glorious testimony concern- ing His kingdom. But the Jews went not into the judg- ment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover. Pilate then went out unto them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man? They answered, and said unto him. If He were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered Him up unto thee. Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye Him, and judge Him accord- ing to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him. It is not lawful for us to put any man to death : that the say- ing of Jesus might be fulfilled, which He spake, signifying what death He should die. Then the chief priests and elders began to accuse Him, saying, We found this fellow perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that He Himself is Christ a king. Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and said unto Him, Art Thou the King of the Jews? Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me? Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered Thee unto me ; what hast Thou done? Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world : if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews : but now is my kingdom not from hence. Pilate there- fore said unto Him, Art Thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice. Pilate said unto Him, What is truth? Xcsson III Christ is declared guiltless by Pilate, and is sent to Herod. And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in Him no fault at all. And the chief priests accused Him of many things : but He answered nothing. And Pilate asked Him again, saying, An- swerest Thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against Thee? And He answered him never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly. And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up the people, teach- ing throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place. When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man w^ere a Galilean. And as soon as he knew that He belonged unto Her- od's jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem at that time. And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad : for he was de- sirous to see Him of a long season, be- cause he had heard many things of Him ; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by Him. Then he questioned with Him in many words ; but He answered him nothing. And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused Him. And Herod with his men of war set Him at nought and mocked Him, and arrayed Him in a gorgeous robe, and sent Him again to Pilate. And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together ; for before they were at enmity between themselves. lesson IV Pilate proposes to scourge Christ, but is warned by his wife not to shed inno- cent blood. Barabbas is preferred to Christ. And Pilate, when he had called to- gether the chief priests and the rulers and the people, said unto them, Ye have 84 passion IfDistori^ brought this man unto mc. as one that pervcrtcth tlie people; and, behold, I having examined Him before yon, have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse Him : no, nor yet Herod : for I sent you to him : and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto Him. I will therefore chastise Him, and release Him. Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto them one prisoner whom- soever they desired, and they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection. And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them. Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them. But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the pass- over : whom will ye that I release unto you ? Barabbas, or Jesus, the King of the Jews, which is called Christ. For he knew that for envy they had deliv- ered Him. When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying. Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream be- cause of Him. But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus. The governor answered and said unto them. Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? And they cried out all at once, saying. Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas: Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them. What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? But they cried, say- ing. Crucify Him, crucify Him. And he said unto them the third time, Why. what evil hath He done? I have found no cause of death in Him: I will there- fore chastise Him, and let Him go. But they cried out the more, saying. Let Him be crucified. And they were in- stant with loud voices, requiring that He might be crucified : and the voices of them and of the chief priests pre- vailed. Xcaaon V Christ is scourged by Pilate; the soldiers clothe Him with a scarlet robe, put a crown of thorns upon His head, and mock Him. Then Pilate took Jesus, and scourged Him. Then the soldiers of the gover- nor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto Him the whole band of soldiers. And they stripped Him and put on Him a scarlet robe. And when thev had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon His head, and a reed in His right hand ; and they bowed the knee before Him, and mocked Him. saying. Hail, King of the Jews 1 They smote Him with their hands, and they spit upon Him, and took the reed and smote Him on the head, and bowing their knees, worshipped Him. Xcsson VI The Chief Priests and Elders with a loud voice require Pilate to condemn Jesus to die on the cross. Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring Him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in Him. Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man ! When the chief priests therefore, and officers saw Him. they cried out, saying. Crucify Him, crucify Him. Pilate saith unto them. Take ye Him, and crucify Him: for I find no fault in Him. The Jews ans- wered him. We have a law, and by our law He ought to die, because He made Himself the Son of God. When J passion Ibistot^ 85 Pilate therefore heard that iaying, he \vas the more afraid : and went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art Thou? But Jesus gave him no answer. Then saith Pilate tinto Him, Speakest Thou not unto me? knowest Thou not that I have power to crucify Thee? and have power to release Thee? Jesus answered. Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee, from above : therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin. And from thenceforth Pilate sought to re- lease Him : but the Jews cried out, say- ing, If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar's friend : whosoever maketh himself king speaketh against Caesar. Xesson VII Pilate confesses Jesus to be King of the Jews; and after zvashing his hands, thus to attest his innocence, condemns Jesus to die upon the cross. When Pilate therefore heard that say- ing, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha. And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour : and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King ! But they cried out. Away with Him, away with Him, crucify Him. Pilate saith unto them. Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered. We have no king but Caesar. When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the mul- titude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person : see ye to it. Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our chil- dren. And he released unto them Bar- abbas, that for sedition and murder was cast into prison, whom they had desired ; but he delivered Jesus, scourged and mocked, to their will that they might crucify Him. + + + Cbapter iv THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS AN ACCOUNT OF THE CRUCIFIXION OF CHRIST. Xesson 1 Christ is led from Jerusalem to the place of crucifixion and preaches to the lamenting women of future cala- mity. Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus and took the robe off from Him, and put His own raiment on Him, and led Him away to crucify Him. And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus : him they compelled to bear His cross, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus. And there followed Him a great company of peo- ple, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented Him. But Jesus turn- ing unto them said. Daughters of Jeru- salem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children. For, behold, the days are coming, in which they shall say. Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck. Then shall they begin to say to the mount- ains, Fall on us ; and to the hills. Cover us. For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry. lesson II Christ, having tasted of the wine min- gled with gall and myrrh, is crucified, and prays for His crucifiers. And there were also two others, male- factors, led with Him to be put to death. And they bring Him unto the 86 passion Ibistor^ place Golgotha, which is, being inter- preted. The place of a skull. And they gave Him to drink wine mingled with myrrh, or vinegar mingled with gall : and when He had tasted thereof, He would not drink. And they crucified Him in the place which is called Gol- gotha, and two malefactors with Him, one on the right hand and the other on the left, and Jesus in the midst. And the Scripture was fulfilled which saith, And He was numbered with the trans- gressors. And it was the third hour, when they crucified Him. Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. Xcseon 111 Pilate honors the cross of Christ zvith a glorious superscription; the soldiers divide Christ's garments. And Pilate wrote a title and the su- perscription of His accusation and put it on the cross. And the writing was, Jesus of Nazareth the King of the Jews. This title then read many of the Jews ; for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city : and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin. Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not. The King of the Jews; but that He said, I am King of the Jews. Pilate ans- wered, What I have written I have written. Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part : and also His coat : now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout. They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it. but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. And sitting down they watched Him there. These things therefore the sol- diers did, and the people stood be- holding. Xcsson IV Christ commends His mother to the protection of John, and is reviled on the cross. Now there stood by the cross of Je- sus His mother, and His mother's sis- ter Mary, the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus there- fore saw His mother, and the disciple standing by, whom He loved, He saith unto His mother. Woman, behold thy son ! Then saith He to the disciple. Behold thy mother ! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own house. And they that passed by reviled Him, wagging their heads, and saying. Thou that destroyest felie temple, and buildest it in three days, save Thy- self. If Thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross. Likewise also the chief priests mocked Him, with the scribes and elders, saying, He saved others : Himself He cannot save. If He be the King of Israel, let Him now come cfown from the cross, and we will believe Him. He trusted in God, let Him deliver Him now, if He will have Him : for He said, I am the Son of God. The thieves also, which were crucified with Him. cast the same in his teeth. And the soldiers also mocked Him, and offered Him vinegar, saying. If Thou be the King of the Jews, save Thyself, lc00on V Heaven is opened to the converted male- factor; the sun is darkened; Christ complains that He is forsaken of God. •And one of the malefactors which were hanf:cd railed on Him, saying. If Thou be Christ, save Thyself and us. But the other answering rebuked Him, IPassiou Ibtstory 87 saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? And we indeed justly: for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when Thou comest into Thy kingdom. And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To-day shalt thou be with me in paradise. And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. And the sun was darkened. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli. Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me? Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias. Xcsson VI Christ complains of thirst: tcstiHes that all is accomplished; commends His soul into the hands of His heavenly Father, and gently falls asleep. After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst. Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar, and one ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar, and put it upon hyssop : and put it on a reed, and put it to His mouth, and gave Him to drink, saying. Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take Him down. When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar. He said, It is finished ! And He cried again with a loud voice, and said : Father, into Thy hands I com- mend my spirit: and having said thus, He gave up the ghost. Xcsson VII The miracles which took place after Christ's death. And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; and the graves were opened: and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, and came out of the graves after His resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many. And when the centurion, which stood over against Him, and they that were with him, watching Je- sus, saw that He so cried out, and gave up the ghost, and saw the earth- quake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, and glorified God, saying, Certainly, this was a righteous man, and the Son of God. And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned. And all His acquaintance, and many women which followed Jesus from Galilee, among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome, and the mo- ther of Zebedee's children, who also, when He was in Galilee, followed Him, and ministered unto Him ; and many ether women which came up with Him unto Jerusalem, stood afar off, behold- ing these things. The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation,, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath day, (for that Sabbath day was a high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with Him. But when they came to Jesus, and saw that He was dead already, they brake not His legs : but one of the soldiers with a spear pierced His side, and forthwith came there out blood and water. And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true, and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe. For these things were done, that the Scrip- ture should be fulfilled, A bone of Him 88 IPassion iDistor^ shall not he hrokcn. And again another Scripture saith, They sliall look on Him whom they pierced. + + + Cbaptcr V this chapter contains a record of Christ's burial. Xc00on I And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath, Joseph of Arimathea, a city of the Jews, and a rich man, a counselor; who was a good man, and a just; the same had not consented to the counsel and deeds of them ; which also waited for the king- dom of God, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews; the same went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus. And Pilate marvelled if He were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether He had been any while dead. And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph. And he bought fine linen, and there came also Nicodcmus. (which at the first came to Jesus by night.) and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pound weight. Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury. Now in the place where He was cruci- fied there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid. Therein they laid Jesus; for that day was the preparation and the Sab- bath drew on. And they rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed. And there was Mary Magda- lene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre. And the women also, which came with Him from Gali- lee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how His body was laid. And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments ; and rested the Sabbath day according to the commandment. Xcseon II Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pi- late, saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while He was yet alive. After three 'days I will rise again. Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest His disciples come by night, and steal Him away, and say unto the people. He is risen from the dead : so the last error shall be worse than the first. Pi- late said unto them. Ye have a watch : go your way, make it as sure as ye can. So they went and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch. Ube psalms XUltb "Kefcrcncc to tbc Sun^ai^s anO jfcstirals of tbc Cburcb l^car Sundays and Holidays. Psalms.
