OF this is The Second Year of Jesus

called The Year of Development-the
growth from the small beginnings OF
the first year into great work, with
marked results.
Ill. A General View Of His Galilean
Ministry. VS.. 1925. First. The

square lies, or about one-third of Pal

100000. Josephus says that it in

vessels engaged in traffic and fisheries.
Second. The Preaching of Jesus.-V.
~. From that time:" From His
coming into Galilee, after the imprison-
ment of John. "Jesus began:" Jesus
had been teaching for more than year,
but for most part privately and in
dividually; but now began new era;
the preparatory work was completed;
John had ceased preaching; Jesus had
gained followers enough to enter fully
upon His work, and "preach"-i. e., as
the Greek word means, proclaim as a
herald-His message from God, and an
nounce publicly the coming of the king
dom, az q herald running before the
king announces his approach. Re

Third. The Calling Of Helpers for
Work and Training.-Vs. 1922. 10.
"Ara Jesus, walking by the sea of Cali
lees" On the first morning after His
arrival at Capernaum, and probably
these busy fishermen did not know of
HIS arrival till He spoke to them.
Simon called Peter" the Rock, 'and
Andrew his brother:" These had be.

ginning of His ministry, more than a
