They give a true revelation of the mind of Jesus show- ing us how he looked upon nature as a means of leading us up to divine truth. These parables were scattered throughout the Synoptic Gospels, and convey many different lessons. Their number is about thirty-three. 1. THE STORV, Matt. 13:1-9. V. 1. The popularity of Jesus is at Miles To the Gallon Here's How! Millions of dollars could be saved annually by the automobll'>-ownlng public through a more strict observ- ts height, and crowds gather wherever j ance ot the factors that govern fuel he appears. He remains seated by the consumption. Tho suggestions are: side of the lake, till the numbers to increase that they havi to push out a boat a little wa>, for him to sit down. It is a striking picture. V. 2. Now for tho first time he men- tions the new method of teaching. It seems that Jesus deliberately intro- duced this form c>f preaching. The reason has been differently explained. As a rule the parables are so simple and clear, that i is impossible to miss their meaning. They are like illus- trations. But in this case ho seems to conceal the thought in his mind. Thi is the theory given in \s. 10-17, where the parable is delivered with a view^f hiding the truth from certain - (if the audience. He puts his words in such a way that on'v they can understand who have a sympath- etic mind to his truth. Up to this moment Jesus had preachtd about re- pentance as the preparation for the kingdom: now ho passes on to describe the nature of the kingdom and the con- ditions of entrance. V. 3. The sower is for the most part left out in the cquel, since :.Kention is directed to the soil and to the seeds that fall into it. V. 4. Three kinds of poor soil are mentioned, the first 1. When standing or waiting for the light to change, don't race your motor. 2. When you are to make a stop of more than a minute turn off your motor. 3. Don't driv at excessive speeds unless the occasion demands. High speed travelling burns more gas. 4. Remember that the faster you drive the more gas you consume. So when you find that you are about out of gas and are heading for a gas sta- tion, take it slowly and your chances for negotiating the distance will be greater. 5. Whon starting watch the choke. Don't drive with the choke out a mo- ment more than necessary. C. Be sure that your brakes are not dragging. This cuts down your mile- age. Get your brakes Inspected fre- quently. 7.

We are fortunate in having tho explanation of the parable, and this shows us what .as the thought uppermost in JCMIS' mind. Wo must always try to find out the circum- stances in which a parable \vas spoken. All those parables of Matth >w, chap. j:t, swm to l IT upon the same gen- eral theme. The disoiples had Ixvn \vomlcring why the kingdom was not coming more rapidly with outward jrlory. Why wr-s thj leaders of the nation so bitterly opposed to their Muster? Jesus in this parablo is meeting thc-ir difficulties in this re- tfiird. Tho fault does not lie, he *< -iii.i to say, in tho .>( wi-r, that is, in him- self, ns (he great preacher, nor in the quality of the w.d, thut is the gospel of the kingdom, but in the soil into which the seed falls. The heart and mind of the listener aro of great im- portance in deciding the result of preaching. This parable is concerned, wo may pay, not with the preacher, but with the pew. The apparent fail- ure of ninny to listen to Jisus is no -au.se why he s'r.ould stop preaching. Tho sowor will f'O on sowing, bul the result will deperd upon the moral and spiritual nttitud* f thoso who li.sion. V. 19. The seed . f the kingdom has onomics iust ns the soods in the land have. The forces of evil are present everywhere. V. 20. Tho rocky soil represents the people of fickle character, who nro reaily to welcome the truth, but who forget it BS quickly. Perseverance is a condition of DlOmbtnhlp in tho king- dom. V. 22. The thorns represent '.he prc- omipations of this world. We hnvo to work for our living, but these worldly interests often become so absorbing that spiritual thoughts ilisappe-ar. V. 23. Hut there will always i>e those who will listen and obey.
