Matt. xxi. 10, 11. 14-17. Son of David; they were sore displeased, 16 and said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?

THE GREEKS BROUGHT TO CHRIST
John xii. 20-36.

20 And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast: 21 the same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus. 22 Philip cometh and telleth Andrew and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.

:

23 And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. 24 Verily, verily, I

say unto you, Except a corn
of wheat fall into the ground
and die, it abideth alone: but
if it die, it bringeth forth much
fruit. 25 He that loveth his
life shall lose it; and he that
hateth his life in this world
shall keep it unto life eternal.
26 If any man serve me, let
him follow me; and where I
am, there shall also my servant
be: if any man serve me, him

he said, signifying what death he should die.

34 The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man? 35 Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither

he goeth. 36 While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.

UNBELIEF OF THE JEWS. John xii. 37-50.

37 But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him : 38 that the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed? 39 There
