Luke 24: 48. : Ty | THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time ~-- Christ's. Resurrection took place on Easter Sunday, Ap- The exact time when Christ gave the commission found in verses 44-48 is very much disputed, Some believe this particular commission was given on the day he rosé from the dead, - Most harmoni¢s of the Gospels place it at the end of the forty days, when Christ was about: to ascend, : Place -- The opening part of this chapter, concerning the wo- men in conversation with the an- gel, took place at the tomb where Christ had been buried; the beau- tiful story of our Lord's conver- sation along the road with two disciples occurred somewhere be- tween Jerusalem and a town west 'of the city named Emmaus, the exact location of which we do not know. The appearance of our Lord to the-ten disciples was in an upper room, in the city of Jerusalem, Report of Experiences 83. "And they rose up that very hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, - and them that were with them, 34, saying 'the Lord has risen indeed, and hath ap- peared to Simon.' 36. And they rehearsed the things that hap. pened in the way, and how ho was known of them in the break- ing of the bread." Two things are notable -- they knew just where to go, and they found not only the apostles but also others all together in one place. This is what the morning news of the resurrection had done of the disbelief with which it was received. When Mary Magdalene rushed back early in the morning she found only Peter and John. The rest were scattered: But now they are all together again. With Jesus dead, the bond was broken; nothing could hold even the eleven together anymore; but with Jesus even only possibly risen from the dead, the old bend began to hold again. Bestowal of Peace 86. "And as he spake these. things, he himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, 'Peace be unto you'." Prob- ably the disciples were in the same upper room where they had been on Thursday evening, at the time of the institution of the Lotd's Supper. At the close of this great scene, He once more pronounced the benediction of Peace, and breathed on them with the words, 'Receive the Holy spirit', Fear and Comfort 87. "But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they beheld a spirit. 38, "And he said unto them, 'Vhy are ye troubled? and wherefore do ques- tioninges arise in your heart?" G. H. Knight says: 'The thoughts that arise in my heart may be doubting thoughts, anxious, re- gretful or remorseful thoughts, but I will let this thought be as the sun that banishes the mists-- my Lord is with me still. If I am troubled with thoughts of my . sin, He tells me that he rose again for my justification. If I am troubled by my sorrows and cares, He tells me that He rose from the grave to give me His perfect peace. If I am troubled with the thought of death, and my lying in the grave, He tells me that He passed through it too, and consecrated it for me by lying there Himself; so that because He lives I shall live also.' Jesus In The Flesh 89. "See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself; handle me. and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye behold me having." Jesus -is patient with his proof. They were convinced before He came into the room, but that psychological shock had ~unnerved--them-- al-™The --exact nature of Christ's resurrection body_is not defined for us, It was a body that certainly was in many ways different from His pre-resurrection body, Whether his body underwent further chan- ges before His- final ascension to. heaven, we are not told, and what is not revealed to us ought not to be a subject of prolonged spec- ulation, Additional Proof 40, "And when Hé had said this, He showed them His hands and His feet, 41. And while they still disbelieved for joy, and won- dered, He said unto them, 'Have yo here anything to -eat? 42. And they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish, 48, And He took i, and ate it before them." Jesus wanted to convirice His own apos- "folie company beyond any ques- tion that He had in His own body risen from the dead.

But while the heavenly trance is yet upon them, Jesus recalls them to earthly things, asking if they have any meat. Our Lord gave an addi-' tional proof that He did have & true body and could eat. Unshakable Foundation 44, "And he said unto them, 'These are My words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled which ave written in the law of Moses, and the pro- phets," and the psalms, concern. ing me. 45, Then opened he their mind, that they might understand the Scriptures." Our Lord knew that the one unshakable founda- tion on which all the preaching of the apostolic church could safely rest was, on the other hand, a conviction regarding the Scriptures as they foretold the Messiah, . and conviction regard- ing Jesus as the Christ of God. Four Great Truths 46. "And he said unto them, Thus it is written that the Christ should suffer, and rise again from the dead the third day; 47. and that repentance and remission of ains should be preached in His name unto all the nations, begin- ning from Jerusalem. 48. Ye are witnesses of these. things." Four great truths our Lord once more announced as he was about {in- ally to leave His followers--the truth concerning Himself that He was Christ; the truth concerning His death--He must suffer; the truth concerning His resurrection; and the truth concerning remis- sion of sins in His name; a mes- sage for all men everywhere, Of theso™ things, the disciples were, and you and I are, to be wit- nesses, f Malta Amid Bombs Oft-bombed Malta is pictured by a correspondent as an idyllic Island of bathing parties, dances and moving picture shows.
