Questioning, etc.â€"How could they properiy preach a crucified and risen Saviour, when they were resolutely opposed to his death and questioned what the rising from the dead might mean? Silence and disâ€" cipline were their present duty. Had they preached him as a glorious Messiah, superior to Moses and Elias, as set forth in his transfiguration, the Jewish authorities would have held them guilty of treason.â€"Wheâ€" don. ® 8. Looked round aboutâ€"Matthewm tells us that when the disciples heard the voice they fell on their faces, and were sore Afraid; then, recovering from the shock, they suddenly gazed all around them and saw; no person but Jesus. _ "They feared as they entered into the cloud, but when they heard the voice of God, probably as loud as thunder (see John xii. 209), and full of divine majesty such as mortal ears were unaccustomed to hear, they fell flat to the ground on their faces, being sore afraid ; an effect which manifestations of this kind commonly had on the prophets and other holy men to whom they were given."â€"Benson. ‘ IV. _ The Divine charge (vs. 9, 10). 9.

Three of the six victims chose carbolic acid, one chose death by shooting, another by hanging, and the sixth accomplished his purpose by turnâ€" ing on the gas. The most youthful suiâ€" cide was Eva Pocker, a seventeenâ€"yearâ€" old Brooklyn schoolgirl, who drank carâ€" bolic acid after reading a letter, and the: oldest, Jacob Reiham, 65, of 39 169th street, who had been ill with rheumsâ€" tism, and whose body was found hangâ€" ing in his lodgings.

The voice had been heard before (Matt. 8, 17 ; Jo‘un 12, 28). One one ozcasion ‘ (Jo‘hn 12, 20) gome waid it thundered. But here in ‘the presence of his transâ€" ligured glory the voice was clear and unmistakeable. "Jesus only." Whe heavenly visiâ€" tants were gone, the overshadowing cloud had disappeared. "They saw no man gave Jegus only." Not only were they alsne with him, ‘but he was again the plain Jesus iof Nazaroth. His faco had shone (as the sun, but this had all passed "away and he stood before them "Jesus only."
