Jesus Condemns Fsiss. Leader.
ship Matthew 23,l,l2. 17.3s
By RALPH RoGEAs.
In our lesson today we find Je-
sus speaking to. the multitude.
We can picture the disciples
right up in front on the Amen
Corner" and the, discounted
Pharisees in the background,
This latter group was chatting
under the scathing sdenunciation
Jesus had given them on many
occasions. The scene j. the Tenn
pie and we find Jesus speaking
first to the multitude, then to the
disciples and. finally to the
scribes and 'Pharisess. The lead
ership of the latter groups is con-
demned as false.
Denunciation is q dangerous
indulgence. Too often it.is a IA
vorite way OF evading response
bility and excusing wrongdoing.
However. Jesus had the right
and authority to judge and we
know that he surely did not in
dulge in a sweeping castigation
of any group for he spent hours
with Nicodemus and his message
always left open the door for any
to"Come unto me. and / will
give you rest" INT. 1E2O Per
haps this chapter partly reflects
the strife between the leaders Of
Judaism and the. early church to-
ward the, end Of the first century.
Perhaps the denunciations have
gathered virulence in transmiS-
sion." Interpreters Bible):
Jesus directed attention to
three common sins q the iscribes
and Pharisees which. might be
examined today. The fist is the
cleft between the teaching and
the deed. The scribes sit in
Moses seat since they were Or
dained by the laying on of hands
and received their authority
through an unbroken succession
from Moses. This gave them ju-
|dicial power and authority to
teach. The rabbis sat on a.raised
seat and in the rabbinical writ
ings one who succeeds a rabbi al
the head Of his school is describ-
ed as sitting on his seat
The second SIN Jesus referred
to was the heartlessness Of inn
posing on weak men the heavy
burden Of laws, some 6l5 com
mandments, which were toe
erievous to be borne. One good
thing about the Sadducees was
that they renounced these hn-
man traditions. The idea Of i'm
posing these man-fnade laws upor
those who had no special religi

For some reason yellow perch
fishing in the South River has
been poor this past winter and
very few have been taken so
far this spring. However they
may make their appearance
there any day now. and usually
when they do, they're fish of
good size.

the last few years, and find it
still early. The herring APP
peared at Chain Bridge March
Z, 1851, and the white perch,
March 26. The hickories, be-
cause of sour water conditions,
didn't hit into the Patuxent at
Queen AnneS Bridge until
March 70 that year and at
Chain Bridge it was April q
before any were caught on hook
and line. Last year the herring
appeared March 10 at Chain
Bridge with the white perch
following March 26. Hickory
shad were caught at Queen
Annes Bridge March 80 but
not at Chain Bridge until April
Is. In any event, it won't be
long now.
