This would dicate the influence of som spiritual rabbi, whose ministry prepared his hearers to accept the ministry of the Baptist. It has been suggested that the love of Jesus for John was due to their |t close relationship, as they were first | cousins.

All the others failed Jesus, but John remained true, loyal during the dan- ger of being arrested for fellowship of the lridl' and the despair of the cross. His fidelity was recognized and rewarded by the Lord upon the cross by com- mitting His mother to the care of “the istipline whom He loved. John reveals the influence of the character of Jesus molding his per- sonality more than even Peter or any of the other members of the apostolic band. The Master's life, les- sons and labors gripped John. The three different rebukes that the Lord administered to him did gpt Al him with_any personal pique, ®s he loved the Lord. Probably nothing shows better the advancement made in John's personality than his attitude toward Judas. He knew that the treasurer proposed because of per- sonal resentment and wounded pride to betray Jesus. He understood Judas’ plan. He did not allow it to change his attitude toward the traitor. His gospel reveals “bitter and im- placable loathing” which this man by nature entertained for Judas; a loath- ing more strong, more deep and more outspoken than “he possessed against Judas,” cannot be imagined. He did not allow it to change his attitude toward his fallen comrade. He re- pressed the pent-up jury of soul, for Iike Jesus, he had a ray of hope that Judas would heed the warning given him by the Lord and mot carry out his bargain. i Tove is_ closely associated with hatred. \When John exhibited such self-restraint, poise nnd generous at- titude as he did toward Judas, there evidence to believe that he i his life to the Master. have been a secret that precipitated took place probably, as gested, when Salome highest possible hon- assigned to her son. that Jesus unveiled to whom 'He loved “a new 1 of & tness.” It was not only n, the fisherman, who was trans- that hour.
