LESSON 1 MAT tO, M3. tiers xxin. 12-Si, The Plot Against Paul; The Tower of Antonia was part a great structure which probably extended the entire length of the northern side of the temple court. It was fortress, barracks and pRlnce alt In one. Its size Is Indicated by the fact that It could shelter an entlie regiment at once.

Its Splendor Is assured by the fame of Its builder. Herod the Great always built handsomely. he w'ould want this building especially to be sumptuous, as he Intended it should bear the name of Mark Antony. Its very position also demanded that It shoifid be snlentlld. It wss the sign of Roman power, as the temple next to which It stood was the splendid memorial of the Hebrew faith.

A significant trace of this famous structure remains to our day. In the deep trench to the north. It is popularly known as the Pool Of Bethesda, but Is probably the castle moat The chief Interest and glory of this heathen fortress it that it sheltered the Christian apostle. Under Its hospitable roof, safe from the raging of the mob, Paul received gracious and comforting assurances or security until he should reach the goal of his ardent missionary spirit, the city by the Tiber. While the apostle in prison was wrapt In the consolation of a heavenly vision such as stayed him In Corinth and afterward In shipwreck, his malignant enemies were far from idle.

It was not merely hatred that Inflamed them. It was the instinct oi self-defenre. A more significant tribute to the success of the foremost advocate of the new faith could not have been given. There was not room enough In Judea for both Paul and the Eetablished Church. One or the other must die.

No question but some of the conspirators thought they were doing God service. They believed in the divine right of assassination. They must away with the man who taught apostasy from Moses, and the "bold genius whose dangerous Independence treated Mosiasm and Its essential covenant as a thing of the past. The San-hedrln seems to have agreed with avidity to the concoction of a lie for the facilitation of murder. I In his extremity Paul seems not to have had the active sympathy of the Chris? tlan Church In Jerusalem.

When Peter was In prison prayer was made for him by the Church'. We read of nothing of the kind In the ease of Paul. The signs are evident that he was yet looked upon with coldness, if not hostility. There may have been Christians who at that time were thinking It would even be better if the controversy between Gentile Christian and Jew Christian were made an end of by Pauls death. But what Christian faith failed In, natural affection accomplished.

Paul sister and nephew were the means of his j-eBcne from the deadly plot of the oath-bound Sicarli. At no point Is Lukes narrative more effective. There are the fewest possible strokes, but every one of them tells. It is like the white and black picture now so popular. Every word counts; much Is suggested.

All the parties to the affair stand In relief conspirators, priests and elders, chief captain, Paul nephew, Pauls self, and his guard to Caesarea. How futile the conspiracy! The oath-bound assassins Were all unconsciously speeding Paul on his way to the throne of his widest honor and power. Their plan was laid with consummate villainy. The dignity and sanctity of the priesthood and the Sanhedrin, highest court of the nation, lent itself to the nefarious plot. A most plausible request was Jo be made of the Roman commandant, that he would allow the court to further examine the prisoner, En route the guard was to be overpowered and the prisoner slain.

Humanly Speaking, by most unexpected means, knowledge of the plot was conveyed to the chief captain, who, with true Roman promptitude and skill, put Paul beyond reach of his enemies. The Teachers Lantern. I The Inveterate and historical teuaciousness to life of an ecclesiastical establishment has striking Illustration In this Instance. It is not of their nature to admit themselves to be transitory, They are not willing to diminish that others may increase. The synagogue would not give place to the Church.

That there are monetary considerations but none the less real, may be readily believed. It Is still a question of "loaves and fishes" although the admission may not be quite so frank as that of the Ephesian silversmiths, By this craft we get our wealth. This is not, however, to deny the absolute and disinterested devotion of many who are attached to ecclesiastical establishments of every description. The disturbed and unsafe confltlon of Palestine at this time can hardly be exag-gerated. A spark would be enough to set It on fire.

Human blood had already flowed with that of the beasts designed for sacrifice a high priest and many worshippers had been slain. Ventldius and the Egyptian zealot had played their tragic parts. Under all the conditions the prompt and tactful course of Claudius Lysias Is to be admired. He was Justified in parting with half of his garrison as he did to ghe his prisoner safe conduct Forty conspirators were thirty-seven too many! The odlousneas of Paul Is evidenced by the number who were-w filing to stake their fives for his destruction; but the very size of the body made the keeping of the secret Impossible, and so defeated tbe plot Natural affection shines like a Jewel in this narrative Paul's sister loved him as her brother. There Is no et idence she was a Christian.

The presumption is rather to the contrary. Had she been a Christian It Is Improbable she would hate heard of the plot. It la likely she took the Initiative In the rescue of her brother, for from the term used her son was yet an Immature boy. Here is an example of what a boy can do. The obedience, courage and modesty of Paul a nephew In this trvhig ordeal Is admirable.

His very life was in Jeopardy. Yet he did his part faithfully and without faltering. I.sslasa kindness makes him an attractive study. He wss not puffed up by power. He eould take a bov hy the hand and help him bv the sympaihcfic tourh unload a dreadful secret It was the Ohrtrrtan act of a hesthim, The gunpowder plot and I-a assassination of Henry of France bear soma ana lory to tu conspiracy a 31 ai.
