WHEN THE EtSTERiII
IMS HI OPENED
Jerusalem's Visitor Finds Attrac
tion in Silence of the "Golden
Way"
The International Sunday School Les
son for August 2 Is "Tho Trium
phal Entry"—Mark 11:1-11
By William T. Ellis
The present-day visitor to Jerusa
lem, who has any imagination, finds
his thought turning again and again
to the walled-up gate in the center
of the eastern side of the city. It is
called the "Golden Gate" and the
Moslems have a belief that If ever
this gate is opened again the Chris
tians will get possession of tho city,
for it was through this gate that the
procession of the Triumphal Entry
passed. Now the traveler who would
go out from Jerusalem to the Mount
of Olives must go up to the north
eastern corner, where St. Stephen's
gate opens out on the valley of the
Kidron.
And standing by the "Golden
| Gate," on the ramparts of the old
temple area, with the crown of the
I Mount of Olives before one's eyes,
I thoughts crowd in of that great day
I when the clear air resounded with
the shouts of the multitudes acclaim-
I lng the lowly Nazareno as the -"Son
of David," the long-expected Mes-
Isiah.
That was the greatest worldly
triumph of Jesus—greater even than
his experience up in Galilee, r.fter
the feeding of the five thousand, vhen
the multitude would have made him
king. For here were Passover pil
grims from every nation under heaven
full of religious fervor, doing honor
to the Wonder-Worker, who, in their
enthusiasm, they accepted as the One
"Who Was To Come.
The procession was a triumph for
Jesus, and it also partook of the flavor
of defiance of his enemies. He had
the people with him. In this hour
his enemies were powerless. They
might slay him ere a week rolled
around, but this hour they could not
deny him. The raising of Lazarus, his
greatest miracle, which was likewise
the immediate cause of his death, had
set the people Into a frenzy of adula
tion.
The Triumphal Entry
All four of the biographers of
Jesus tell this great story. Mark's
narration is the one chosen by the
lesson committee.
"And when they came nigh to Jeru
salem, unto Bethphage and Bethany,
at the Mount of Olives, he sendeth
forth two of his disciples, and salth
unto them, Go your way into the vil
lage over against you, and as soon as
ye be entered Into It, ye shall And a
colt tied, whereon never sat man;
loose him, and bring him. And if any
man say unto you. Why do ye this?
say ye that the Lord hath need of
him, and straightway he will send him
hither.
"And they went their way, and
found the colt tied by the door with
out in a place where two ways met;
and they loose him. And certain of
them that stood there said unto them,
What do ye, loosing the colt? And
they said unto them even as Jesus
had commanded; and they let them
go. And they brought the colt to
Jesus, and cast their garments on
him, and he sat upon him.
"And many spread their garments
in the way, and others cut down
branches off the trees, and strewed
them in the way. And they that
went before, and they that followed,
cried, saying, Hosanna, blessed is he
that cometh in the name of the Lord;
blessed be the kingdom of our father
David, that cometh In the name of
the Lord; Hosanna In the highest.
And Jesus entered Into Jerusalem,
and into the temple; and when he had
looked around about upon all things,
and now the eventide was come, he
went out unto Bethany with the
twelve."
A Popular Demonstration
The tides of talk which flow through
the ranks of the common people are
often disregarded by so-called leaders
of thought, yet they determine public
action. Not always do the newspa
pers reflect the subjects that are en
grossing the popular mind. On this
occasion when hundreds of thousands,
dobutless more than a million, Jews
were thronging to the Passover, the
one dominant theme was the person
ality of Jesus, the healer, teacher and
miracle-worker.
Plain folk do not talk In abstrac
tions. They love truth incarnated
in a life or a deed. That is one rea
son why all the great religions of the
world, except one. bear the name of
the man who was their founder. Peo
ple often spoke of churches in terms
of the pastor. A few days ago a
gentleman inquired for the Presbyter
ian church in a certain community,
but the station agent shook his head
blankly. Then, as an afterthought,
he asked, "I wonder if you mean Mr.
Field's church?" He did not even
know the denomination of the con
gregation, but he did know the pas
tor. Over and over the gospel Is to
be commended in terms of human
life. One saintly character is more
effective In a community than a hun
dred eloquent sermons.
Some day, In the ideal state, the
administration will definitely provide
themes and occasions and personall-
Itching a Severe
Form of Eczema
How to Stop This Awful Nagfinf
Disorder
If Too Feci Like a Pin Ouahion
If you will get It firmly fixed In your
mind that all forms of skin disease are a
combination of nerve disorder and faulty
nutrition you will then understand why
S. S. S. the famous blood purifier over
comes such troubles.
Just as soon as S. S. S. enters the blood
It rushes throughout tho entire circula
tion In an average of three minutes. And
as the skin is an outlet for the greater
proportion of impurities In the blood, tho
action of S. S. S. Is such that theso Im
purities are converted into a substance
that is readily expelled. Thus. Instead
of gathering on the surface to cause
Itching, eczema, salt rheum, tetter and
other skin diseases they pass off -as
vapor or perspiration, the pores are left
free, the nerves regain control and It
Is Impossible for any disease to either
gain or retain a foothold.

Meanwhile, by a common impulse,
the crowds were thronging toward
him whose personality overshadowed
the Passover itself. It was a demo
cratic administration which ensued.
In a frenzy of enthusiasm, people
threw their outer garments in the
way for him to ride over, Just as men
throw their hats in the air at a politi
cal administration. Clearly, Jesus pos
sessed the Interest and enthusiasm of
the people. A lesser one than he
would have his head turned by the
ovation. He knew the fickleness of
the popular mind, for had he not ex
perienced it in the North? Of all that
multitude, he alone was clear-eyed
to the truth that the fickle mob would
soon be shouting, "Crucify him!"
A Lowly Mount
Not a champing warhorse, as ride
earth's conquerors, but in the lowli
ness of the ambassador of peace, Jesus
came riding upon an ass; the patient
beast of the common people. Not
even that was his own. As old Mat
thew Henry said: "This colt was bor
rowed. Christ went upon the water In
a borrowed boat; ate the Passover in a
borrowed home; was burled In a bor
rowed sepulchre and here rode on a
borrowed ass."
None the less the crowd acclaimed
him King. They withheld not the
common messianic designation, "Son
of David," which blind Bartjmaeus
had used. The words of the demon
stration, as culled from the four re
ports, resound the character of this
acclaim: "Hosanna! Hosanna to the
Son of David, blessed is he.. Blessed
is the King. Blessed is the King of
Israel that cometh In the name of the
Lord . . . Blessed be the kingdom of
our father David that cometh In the
name of the Lord . . . Peace in him
and glory in the highest, Hosanna in
the highest!"
All this Jesus accepted as his due,
thereby infuriating the Pharisees. He
had a kingly dignity which took, as
his right, royal prerogatives, and asj
he looked about that crowd, he saw
many familiar faces: there were the
sick he had healed; the blind to whom
he had given sight: leaping in the
forefront may have been Bartimaeus;
yonder, shouting sturdily, was digni
fied Jairus; Mary, with rapt face, fol
lowed; hard by the Teacher, Lazarus 1
was an object of interest, second only ;
to the Lord himself.
Even the celestial choir must have
shared the enthusiasm of that hour '
of exultation, when it was given to
the multitude to possess a flash of
spirtual insight. It is a great thing
to let our best selves have a chance.
They who rail at the enthusiasm of
Christian Endeavor conventions and
other religious gatherings have for
gotten that Jesus rebuked those who
would have silenced the tumult of the
triumphal entry.
"(If Tliou Hadst Known"
When a great city repudiates or re
fuses to accept a man of greatness, ,
the consequences are far beyond prog
nostication. When Philadelphia wel
comed poor Ben Franklin she ac
great riches and is still drawing
Interest on that 2 hospitality. Jerusa
lem spurned Jesus. In rejecting him
the city missed all of her prophesied
highest distinction. He had come of
whom all her prophets had sung, and
Jerusalem knew It not. She was an
ecclesiastical center, and yet blind to
the spiritual visitation for which the
ages had waited! Alas for the com
munities dominated by the little big
men, with petty ideas of thrift and
advantage, but without the vision to
see opportunity when it arrives. The
tragedy of It pierced the compassion
ate heart of Jesus.
He openly wept over the city of his
love, crying, "If thou hadst known in
this day, even thou, the things which
belong unto thy peace! But now they
are hid from thine eyes. For the days
shall come upon thee when thine ene
mies shall cast up a bank about thee
and compass thee round, and keep
thee in on every side, and shall dash
thee to the ground and they children
within thee; and they shall not leave
in thee one stone upon another: be
cause thou knewest not the time of
thy visitation." *
By cne of the great reversals of his
tory, Jerusalem Is now a world capital
because of the Christ whom It reject
ed. The highest buildings in the old
city to-day are Christian churches.
Her proseperity comes from Christian
| pilgrims and Christian schools and
monasteries and many churches. Yon- .
der on Mount Olivet, around the slope
of which this triumphal procession
journeyed, there are great buildings
dedicated to the name of the Lowly
One who trod the hillside afoot. The i
heights of the Mount of Olives are 1
surmounted by two rreat church stee- 1
plea, visible from far beyond the Jor
dan. The triumphs of Christ to-day
are more real and lasting than those
of the tumultuous day nineteen cen
turies ago when the air was rent with
"Hosannas" in his praise.
After the Triumph
The watchful eye of the Patient
Figure, riding in the midst of the up
roar, saw the sinister faces of the
Pharisees looking on from the edge
of the crowd. He heard their mutter
ings and knew that their patient plot
ting would bo rewarded after the
clamor of the crowd had died down.
They were withholding their hand
only because, as they said, "Lo, the
world has gone alter him."
That statement Is truer now than
then. The entire fabric of the social 1
and political and economic thinking
of our day is impregnated with the
idealism of Jesus. His present tri
umphs are greater than on that first
Palm Sunday. A world, which is vast- ■
ly greater than the one known in the
Pharisees' day, "has gone after him."
We wonder, as we recall this scene,
whether when the procession first
turned the shoulder of the Mount of
Olives and came in sight of the city, '
the eye of the Leader did not in
stinctively turn toward that hill, a
short distance from the northwest, ;
which was the place of public execu
tion, called "Calvary." He was not
deceived. He knew what a week
would bring forth; yet this was his
work and he would do it; his cup, he
would drink it; his mission, he would
fulfill it. Jesus knew that he must
die that the unworthy multitude might
live.
"Ride on! Ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp, ride on to die;
O Christ! Thy triumphs now begin
O'er captive, death and conquered sin."
