JESUS AND WHAT HE SAID A NEW BIBLE ANALYSIS BY / Rev. ARTHUR S. BURROWS Based upon the Teachings of Jesus Christ, with Old Testament Illustration and Apostohc Interpretation Printed in U. S. A. THE PILGRIM PRESS BOSTON CHICAGO " The Bible Text used in this book is taken from the American Standard Edition of the Revised Bible, copyright 1901, by Thomas Nelson & Sons, and is used by permission," Copyright, 1921 By Arthur S. Burrows "Unto Him that loveth us, and loosed us fronn our sins by His blood; and He made us to be a Kingdom, to be priests unto His God and Father; to Him be the glory and the dominion for ever and ever. Amen." EXPLANATORY Jesus said, "Search the Scriptures, because ye think that in them ye have eternal life: and these are they which testify of me." This book contains a compilation of Bible truths, based upon What Jesus Said. Contextual completeness. No comment is added. Dogmatic arrangement is avoided. Part I. gives the consecutive order of His human life. Part II. presents the teachings of Jesus. Each first selection under the given subject is inserted in its full text. Following are all the references in His teachings upon the same subject. Old Testament Illustrations reveal Prophecy and Promise: also many other references for practical application. To His original Apostles Jesus said, "I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit, when He, the Spirit of Truth, is come. He shall guide you into all the truth." Apostolic Interpretation shows inspirational fulfilment of this assurance. This work will help Ministers of the Gospel in their analytic use of the Scriptures. Each page Subject may likewise aid Sermon preparation. The work will assist Sunday School Teachers, and Leaders of Young People's Meetings. It will help all who wish to study the Sayings of Him Who "spake as never man spake." A complete Index to Subjects and Topical References is added. Part III., Doctrinal and General Index. One hundred subjects. Two thousand topics. Also, Scripture names not directly referred to through the teachings of Jesus.

JESUS OLD TESTAMENT ILLUSTRATION A Virgin, "a son is given," "a Branch," "a foundation stone,** " a King," "my servant," Isaiah 7 10-15 9 1-7 11 1-10 28 16-17 33 1-4 42 1-9 49 1-12 52 13-15 JESUS His Birth Annunciation, Luke 1 26-38 Development, "his work," Ruler, Isaiah 53 2 62 11 Micah 5 1-3 Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David: and the virgin's name was Mary. And he came in unto her, and said. Hail, thou that art highly favored, the Lord is with thee I But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this might be. And the angel saiiunto her. Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favor with God. And behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shall call his name JESUS. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: and he shall reign over the house of Jacob forever: and of his kingdom there shall be no end And Mary said unto the angel. How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? And the angel answered and said unto her. The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Most High shall overshadow'thee: wherefore also the holy thing which is begotten shall be called the Son of God. And be- hold, Elisabeth thy kinswoman, she also hath conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her that was called barren. For no word from God shall be void of power. And Mary said. Behold, the handmaid of the Lord : be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her. Birth, Shepherds, Dedication, Wise Men, Flight to Egypt, Nazareth, His childhood, Luke 2 40-52 Matthew 1 18-25 Luke 2 1-7 2 8-20 2 21-38 Matthew 2 1-12 13-15 16-23 APOSTOLIC INTERPRETATION 'of the seed of David," Romans 1 1-3 'born of a woman," Galatians 4 1-7 JESUS OLD TESTAMENT ILLUSTRATION JESUS APOSTOLIC INTERPRETATION His Baptism Jordan, Matthew 3 13-17 Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. But John would have hin- dered him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me! But Jesus answering said unto him. Suffer it now : for thus it becom- eth us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffereth him. And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water : and lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon him ; and lo, a voice out of the heavens, saying. This] is my beloved Son, in whom I am well Mark 19-11. Luke 3 21-22. His Temptation Wilderness, Matthew 4 1-11 Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he after- ward hungered. And the tempter came and said unto him. If thou art the Son of God, command that these stones become bread. But he an- swered and said. It is written. Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Then the devil taketh him into the holy city: and he set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and saith unto him, If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is writ- ten. He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and. On their hands they shall bear thee up, lest haply thou dash thy foot against a stone. Jesus said unto him. Again it is written, Thou shalt not make trial of the Lord thy God. Again, the devil taketh him unto an exceeding high moimtain, and showeth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them: and he said unto him. All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. Then saith Jesus unto John Baptist, Acts 19 1-7 'suffered being tempted," Hebrews 2 16-18 'without sin," 4 14-16 JESUS OLD TESTAMENT ILLUSTRATION JESUS APOSTOLIC INTERPRETATION Holy Spirit, Isaiah 11 2-10 42 1-12 55 59 15-21 61 1-3 His Temptation (continued) him. Get thee hence, Satan : for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. Then the devil leaveth him: and behold, angels came and minis- tered unto him. Mark 1 12-13. Luke 4 1-13. His Preaching GaUlee, Matthew 4 12-17 When he heard that John was deliv- ered up, he withdrew into Galilee: and leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the borders of Zebulun and Naphtali: that it might be fulfiilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, sajnng. The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, toward the sea, be- yond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gen- tiles, the people that sat in darkness saw a great light, and to them that sat in the region and shadow of death, to them did light spring up. From that time began Jesus to preach, and to say. Repent ye : for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Mark 1 14-15. Nazareth, Luke 4 14-30 Success, Acts 1-15 500 conversions, 1 Cor. 15 6 Obedience, Hebrews 1 and 2 JESUS OLD TESTAMENT ILLUSTRATION JESUS APOSTOLIC INTERPRETATION Call to faith, Isaiah 55 "the Redeemer," 59 20-21 "anointed," 61 1-3 "mighty to save," 63 1-6 His Discourses Spiritual birth, John 3 1-15 Now there was a man of the Phari- sees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: the same came unto him by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no one can do these signs that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee. Except one be born anew, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nico- demus saith unto him. How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter a second time into his mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered. Verily, verily, I say unto thee. Except one be born of water and the Spirit, he can- not enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee. Ye must be born anew. The wind bloweth where it will, and thou hearest the voice thereof, but knowest not whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is everyone that is born of the Spirit. Nicodemus answered and said unto him. How can these things be? Jesus answered and said unto him. Art thou the teacher of Israel, and un- derstandest not these things? Verily, verily, I say unto thee. We speak that which we know, and bear witness of that which we have seen: and ye re- ceive not our witness. If I told you earthly things and ye believe not, how shall ye believe if I tell you heavenly things? And no one hath ascended into heaven, but he that descended out of heaven, even the Son of man, who is in heaven. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: that whosoever believeth may in him have eternal life. Perishing.

Who do men say that the Son of man is? And they said, Some say John the Baptist; some, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets. He saith unto them: But who say ye that I am? And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jonah : for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father who is in heaven. And I also say unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock will I build my Church : and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven : and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shalt be loosed in heaven. Then charged he the disci- ples that they should tell no man that he was the Christ. Mark 8 27-30.

But Peter followed him afar off, unto the court of the high priest, and entered in, and sat with the officers, to see the end. Now the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death : and they found it not, though many false witnesses came. But after- ward came two, and said. This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days. And the high priest stood up, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee ? But Jesus held his peace. And the high prie: 'd unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou art the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said : nevertheless I say unto you, Henceforth, ye shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven. Then the high priest rent his garments, say- ing. He hath spoken blasphemy ! what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard the blas- phemy: what think ye? They an- swered and said. He is worthy of death. Then did they spit in his face and buffet him : and some smote hSm with the palms of their hands, saying.

Jesus there- fore said unto him. Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will in no wise be- lieve. The nobleman saith unto him. Sir, come down ere my child die! Jesus saith unto him. Go thy way: thy son liveth. The man believed the word that Jesus spake unto him, and he went his way. And as he was now going down, his servants met him, saying, that his son lived. So he in- quired of them the hour when he be- gan to amend. They said therefore unto him. Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.

Thou fool, shall be in danger of the hell of fire.

And if thy right eye causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not thy whole body be cast into hell. And if thy right hand caus- eth thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not thy whole body go into hell.

Swear not at all ; neither by the heaven, for it is the throne of God; nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet ; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.

And if any man would go to law with thee, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also. And who- soever shall compel thee to go one mile, go with him two. Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee, turn not thou away. Luke 6 29-30 Enemies "Love your enemies," Matthew 5 43-48 Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy : but I say unto you. Love your enemies, and pray for them that per secute you; that ye may be sons of your Father who is in heaven : for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and the unjust. For if ye love them that love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same ? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the Gentiles the same ?
