Sunday School. Commentary.â€"I. Paul enumerates his sufferings and labors (vs. 21â€"33). Paul boldly meets those who opp>â€"e him. They were bokl in their imputations that h« was a spurious apostle, and now he courâ€" ageously meets them and shows his +4â€" poriority over his oppoments. 22. Are they Hebrew»â€"From this verse we see that his opponents were Jews, and it seems that they were endeavoring to make it appear that he was a Gentile by birtl. "lmvrfww is distinguished from the term Jews in the fact that the lattor merely signifies those of the tribe of Judah, while the former includes the whole twelve tribes, and is therefore the most proper opposite of Gentile."â€"Wheâ€" don. _ Israclitesâ€"Descendants of Jaco», whose nume was changed to Israel (Gen. 32, 28). Seed of Abrahamâ€"Paul was of pure Hebrew descent, and not a proseâ€" Ivte. In his answers the apostle is short 11:22.28; 12:1â€"10, and positiveâ€""So am I." 23. Ministorsâ€" Thus we see that these men clhrimed to be Christ‘s ministers. As a foolâ€"Paui frequently calls attention to the folly of boasting. But the opposition to bialn‘ia such that it becomes necessary for him to recount his labors and hardships for the Gospel‘s sake, even though in so d ing he may lay bimself liable to the charge of vanity. 1 am moreâ€"Paul now troends to show that he is superior to is opposers. He does not boast of his great talents or learning or of great deeds performed, but tells of the sufferâ€" ings and humiliations he had endured for the cause of Christ,. TLaborsâ€"Paul‘s life was one of constant toil. Stripcsâ€" The Jews gave only thirtyâ€"nine stripes at one time, but the Romans had no law on this and seourged a criminal as long as they chose,. _ From Aets 16, 22 wi learn that Paul and Silas were beaten unmereifully. Prisonsâ€"Up to this time mention has been made of only one im prisonment (Acts 16, 23). Deathsâ€"That i«. there has often been imminent danâ€" wer of death (I. Cor. 13, 31; . Cor. x #â€"10). 24. The Jewsâ€"â€"A less honorable term than those used in v. 22. Forty ... save ow>â€"From Dent. 23, 1â€"3 we learn that the law permitted forty strips, but in Paul‘s time it was the Jewish eustom to limit the unmber to thirtyâ€" nine «o as to avoid the possibility of breaking the law. ~"The eulprit was mime so ax UF AvOMt Em PMsRAOCC breaking â€"the law. ~~The eulprit bound by both hands to & pillar; offieer of the synagogue stripped of clothes until bis baeck was bared. officer then aseended a stone be The seourge consisted of four thon callâ€"skin, and two of other <kin, eulprit hbent to receive the lashes. o{ficer struek with one hand with a fovee.

Robbersâ€"The sountry was infested with lawless bands of bandits. Countrymenâ€"The Jews es pecially hated Paul (compare Acts 9. 24.25; 13. 50; 14. 5, 19. 17; 5, 13; 18. 12). In the cityâ€"As at Ephesus and. other cities. In the wildernessâ€"When passing through uninhabited districts he would not only be in danger of robbers and wild beasts, but of perishing from the cold and from hunger and thirst. 27.

Anxâ€" wty (R. V.) â€"His perils and sufferâ€" ings were small compared to the estabâ€" lishment, government and care of the churhees. u II. Paul‘s extraordinary revelations (ve. 1â€"6). 1. Not expedient..to gloryâ€"See R. V. ‘The meaning is that though boast‘ng of great attainments should usually be avoided, yet the opposition to him at Corinth is such that he is compelled to speak. Visions and _ revelationsâ€"Visâ€" ons are the sight of things ordinarily beyond us; revelations are here the mental and spiritual discoveries resultâ€" img from such visions.â€"Cam. Bib. 2. I know a man (R. V.)â€"From v. 7 we see that this man was nome other than Paul himself. _ In Christâ€"United _ to Christ ; a follower, a servant of Christ. Fourteen years agoâ€"Whether this is the revelation spoken of in Gal. 1. 12 or in 2, we cannot tell. Fourteen years before this would be A. D. 43, or about the time Barnabas went to Tarsus and brought Paul to Antioch and Barnabas and Paul were sent to Jerusalem with alms (Acts 11. 25â€"30). In..Out of the body, etc.â€"From this we see that St. Paul believed in the twoâ€"fold nature of man; he was not a materialist. Canâ€" not tellâ€"If Paul did not know it is nuseless for us to speculate. Caught up â€"Cartied by the Spirit. Third heavenâ€" There is much idle discussion at this point. Whatever Paul meant he _ cerâ€" tainly regarded the third heaven as a place "preâ€"eminantly exalted." 4. Paradiseâ€"Is the third heaven and Paradise one and the same place? We cannot tell. Early tradition seems to have been that Paul "was transported among the saints departed to that parâ€" ticular region of heaven called Paraâ€" dise and was petmitted to hear _ the words there uttered."â€"Cam. Bib. Unâ€" speakable wordsâ€"The utterances _ of spirit to spirit are too sacred and too deep for human lips. 5. Of such an one, etc.â€"Paul seems to make a distinction between himself as he is now and as he was _ when so highly honored by Jehovah. 6. Seeth me to beâ€"A man should be esteemed not because of the visions and revelations he may have had, but because of his character and conduct. opposing his apostolic authority. * Dr. Clarke says Paul referred simply to the distresses he had endured tbhrough the opposition he had met with at Corinth. The important question is not what the thorn was, but why it was sent. Whatâ€" ever it may have been it was very grieâ€" vous to Paul. 9. My grace=is sufficient not know the naiure of this thorn and there is a great difference of opimion concerning it. Many think it was an acute bodily pain or sickness and nearâ€" Iy every kind of pain and disease conâ€" ceivable has been suggested. Some think it was deformity of body.

Questions.â€"Why was this _ epistle written, When, where, by whom was it written? What are some of the princiâ€" pal points in the epistle? In what res pects was Paul superior to those _ who were opposing him? Give some of the points in the life of Paul enumerated in this lesson. What does Paul say of his visions? What can you say of Paul‘s thorn in the flesh? Why was it sent? False apostles had arisen at Coriath and it became necessary for Paul to handle affairs there with a firm hand. After making an apology for referring to himself he gives ain account of his qualifications, labors, conflicts â€"and sufâ€" ferings. He magnifies the digunity of his office and maintains the honor of his apostleship by showing the _ high esteem in which he was held by Jehoâ€" vah. * Paul‘s Superior Qualifications, 1. His strength of character and his bolduess (v. 21). While the apostle was humble and unassuming in his bearing, yet his courage knew no bounds. This was an important element in his charâ€" acter. II. His superior ancestry (v. 22). The: advantages of his birth contributed to his greatness. It is a great blessing to any man to be well born. The great maâ€" jority of Christians come from Chris tian parentage. t III. His superiority as an apostle (v. 23). God had called him and put him into the ministry. As a minister Paul had been faithful. He had served them without hire and had proved his great love for their souls. He was not behind the chicfest apostles, performing . the works of an apostle (chap. 12: 11, 12). IV. His great labors (v. 23). He was "in â€" journeyings _ often" (v. 26), "in weariness" (v. 27), and had ugm him the care of "all the churches." He symâ€" pathized with the weak and suffered with those in affliction. He _ labored with his hands to support himself while preaching the gospel that he might not be "burdensome" (12; 13, 14) to them. Like his great Master, he "spared not himself." V. His extraordinary sufferings . (vs. 23â€"27). "When the apostle would prove himself an extraordinary minister, he proves that he has been an extraordinâ€" ary sufferer. Bonds and imprisonments were familiar to him; never was the most notorious malefactor more freâ€" quently in the hands of public justice than Paul was for the sake of Christ. The jail and the whipping post and all other hard usage of those who were accoun@d the worst of men, were what he was aceustomed to." Then, too, Paul was exposed to all sorts of perils (v. 26). Whether in city or country, on land or sea, he was constantly in jeopâ€" ardy. He wa‘s in peril of robbers, of his own countrymen, the Jews, and of false brethren. â€" But he endured _ all these things gladly and gloried in them, in that he was accounted worthy to suffer for his Lord and Master. VI. The favor God had shown him (v=. 1â€"4). Paul was permitted to enter Paradise. What he saw and heard could not be portrayed to human minds. Ever after the apostle was filled with an ardent longing to return again to the blesseduess than he had _ experienced. Henceforth his conversation is in heaâ€" ven. The world is renounced and . he presses forward with seeming delight to the goal of martyrdom, if by any means he may "attain to the resurreeâ€" tion of the dead." The testimony of the Apostle Paul should inspire us to renewed efforts in the divine life. VII. The lesson in humility (ve. 7â€"10). If love is the greatest thing in the world, humility must be the next greatâ€" est. Lest he be exalted above measure a thorn in the flesh was sent. This was God‘s method to keep Paul humble. The apostle saw his weakness; God‘s grace was magnified and _ tested and was proved to be _ sufficient. _ Paul gloried, not in his eloquence or power or greatness, but in the power of Christ New York. Nov. 15. â€" The American Sugar Refininy Company, the nli;_pr trust, has had the New York customs house in its grip ant its fingers deep in the United States treasury for more than twenty years. In that twenty years it stole upwards _ of $30,000,000, with the assistance or connivance _ of powerful and petty politicians. _ Men of both parties did the stealing and shared in the plunder. â€" The sugar trust, after bringing into this country millions of pounds of raw sugar, on which it paid no duty whatâ€" ever, cheating the Government out _ of money which should have gone to swell the public revenue, because of the trust‘s connected with the powerful politicians, was not punished like the dressmaker. Complaints against the thievery and tyranny went unheeded here and at Washington. sttle. The day the sugar trust assured itself that the New York customs house was in its control it began to divert all of its importations of raw â€" sugar to this place. The trust has been compelled merely to make partial restitution. As its punâ€" ishment for the robbery that has gone on for twenty years it was asked to pay and gladly paid the trivial sum of $135,000 Ottawa Despatchâ€"Speaking â€" at toâ€" day‘s session of the Anglican deanery on the question of revision of the prayer book, Archbishop Hamilton stated that in his opinion the house ef bishops had made a great blunder in acquiescing in the appointment of a committee _ of clergy and laymen to deal with revision. The gigantic nature of these frands is told in records in the eustoms house. The records show the amount of sugar brought to this _ port in the twenty years, the amount upon which the trust paid duties and the amount which it stole. John W.

Forty Persons Carried in a Car on Single Rail Track. Gy;mpk Force Keeps the Car From Falling Off Track. London, _ Nov. 15.â€" Demonstrations carried on in London by Louis Brenuan have demonstrated conclusively that the gyroscope can be practically applied to railroad operation on a single track. says a cable despatch to the New York Times. Thus the monorail, which it is clatined will eventually revolutionize the railway system of the world, scems brought withâ€" in the bounds ofi practicability, Mr. Brenman had previously given deâ€" monstrations with a small metal car. Members of the Royal Socfety were asâ€" tonished some years ago to see this model running along a span of wire rops, balancing itself like a tight rope dancer on two wheels in apparent defiance of the laws of gravitation, and from time to time since then visitors to Mr. Brenâ€" nan‘s house in Kent witnessed the sime apparent miiacle. The secret was to be found in the application of that gyroâ€" seopic force which keeps a spinming top from falling over on its side. Within the little model ear was a gyroscops, which maintained its equilibrium. The inventor has now comploted a fullâ€" sized car and filted it with gyrosecpos, and at (Cheltenham he has given a do monstration which was entirely suceessâ€" full. Forty persons were carried in the ear up and down a straight single rail track and round and round a cixenlar track 220 yards in length. The ear is 40 feet in length, 10 feet wide and 13 feet high, to the top of the cab, in which the machinery is contained, It weighs 22 tons empty and would carry a load of upwards of ten tons. The two gyroscopes which balaneed it on the sinâ€" gle rail were three feet six imches in diameter, weighing together one and ons half tons, and spimmning at the rate of 3,000 revolutions a minuts. _A petrol engine on the car itsolf generated the electric power by which the gyroscopes were rotated, and the â€"rw»ning â€" whoels driven,. The ear ran backward and forâ€" ward, and negotiated with perfoct ease the sharp curve of an eighth of.a mile \eirele, \\!Ii('h wou‘d be impossible for a crailway carriage running en double rails. Mr. Brennan â€"does not hesitate to deâ€" clare that the monorail, which the gyroâ€" scope principle makes a practical possiâ€" bility for the first time, will revolutionâ€" ize the railway systems of the world, A train running on a single rail can attain with ease and asfety, ho declares, a speed which is impossible for double rail vehicles.

They simply have forgotten that there . are dificrent kinds of stock, and that the judge has said that these shall share diffcrently in the distribution, some besring more of the cost of liquidation than others on account of the nature of the stock. "Now look at these judgments.

The life that reaches farthest helps most those nearest. 1i is easy to mistake being stuck fos*t for being steadfast. it is slow work curing the world‘s ills ny preaching our isms. Aothing is accomplished by those who are afraid of overwork. The worker who watches the clock never acquires the right to set it. Many a man finds that all the piety he got in meeting evaporates when he goes milking. f _The biggest coward of all is the man who is not afraid of doing that which he knows to be wrong. 4 You can measure the bitterness of the adversary‘sâ€" pill by the thickness of the sugar coating, One of the worst results of crooked living is that a man ceases to be on the square with himself. It‘s no use dreaming of your heavâ€" enly home if your faith does not make your home more heavenly. No man comes to himself until he knows that he belongs to his world. The man who puts his substance down his throat is soon taken at his face valus. Lots of people are waiting for a rest in heaven who never knew the heaven of work. No man lays up treasure in heaven by sending verbal promissory notes there. Bome imagine that a just life is me spent i.n judging othéer people. EDDY FAMILY. NOT S$O SLOW.
