Two Classes.
I. “While the bridegroom tarried”
vv. 15:5 The first and, strongest idea
of this gection is that he, Jesus, the
bridegroom, is coming &gain. Among
those who wait are two classes, the
wise and the foolish, though both
were right intentioned. The lamps
symbolize Christian profession, Luke
12:85; II Tim. 3:5, and the oil that
which is essential to give us power
whereby we maintain our profession,
Acts 10:38; I John 2:20-27. The fool
ish virgins were superficial and had
not enough to maintain: their profes-
sions. The wise virgins had enough
‘oil; so also may the belidver have the
abiding spirit of Christ's presence
wherein to maintain his Christian
profession. ‘Waiting they all nodded
(slumbered) and others evidently “lay
down (slept). The wise virgins could
afford to rest as they had all things
ready. If they had been awake, how-
ever, they might have seen and ren-
dered aid to those who were in the
sorry plight of not being ready. The
tarrying was a test of the faith and
patience of both the wise and the
foolish as both awaited the “fulness
of itime” when he should appear.
The Great Question.
11. Behold the bridegroom cometh”
vv. 6-13. All "are awakened by this
midnight cry. The hour was .one
when ‘he was least expected, and-the

ened toa realizing'sense of this truth.
