Jesus loved to be in the crowd
Apparently he attended he at-
tended all the feasts at Jerusa-
lem not merely as religious fes-
tivals but because all the folks
were there and he had an all*
embracing fondness for folks.
We err if we think of him as a
social outsider. To be sure it
was the ”pcor” who “heard him
gladly,*’ and most of his elose
disciples were men and women
of the lower classes. But there
was a time when he was quite
the favorite in Jerusalem. The
story of bis days is dotted with
these phrases. ‘‘A certain ruler
desired him that he should eat
[with him.*‘ “They desired him
greatly to remain and be abode
two days.” Even after be had
denounced the Pharisees as
“hypocrites’’ and “children of
the devil,’’even when the clouds
of disapproval were gathering
fer the final storm, they still
could not resist the charm of
bis presence, nor the stimula-
tion of bis talk.

friends, It ran from the top of
the social ladder to the bottom

supreme court, had too big a
siake in the social order to dare
to oe a discipl , but he was
friendly all the way through,
and notably at the end Some
unknown rich mao, the owner of
an estate on the Mount of Olives,

a place of retirement and rest
