HOLY WEEK, GOOD FRIDAY AND
EASTER

Last Sunday, being the Sunday be
fore Easter, is called Palm Sunday, in
commemoration of our Lords entry
into Jerusalem, when the people met
Him with branches of palms and
strewed them in the way. Palm Sun
day is the first day in Holy Week,
each day of which commentaries
some event in the last week of our
Saviour's most holy life. On Monday
and Tuesday the chief priests and
scribes took counsel how they might
put to death the Lord of Life; on
Wednesday Judas, one of the twelve,
promised for thirty pieces of silver to
betray his Master; on Thursday our
Lord gave His new commandment,
THAT we love one another as l have
loved you and instituted the Holy
Communion. Friday, called Good
Friday, from the eternal good pro
cured to all believers by the sacrifice
offered on the Cross this day for The
sins Of the whole world, finishes the
wonderful human life begun in Beth
lehem, and Saturday commentaries
our Lords resting in the tomb. Sun
day, April I'd, will be the joyful feast
of Easter, celebrating the resurrection
of Jesus Christ from the dead. 1t is
called the Queen Of Festivals" and
is one of the days upon which the
church requires all her members to
partake of the Holy Communion.
