They are ex- cited and divided as to Him and his do- ings. A thousand reasons would occur for Bpeaking soft things, at such a moment, for accommodating His teaching, here at any rate, to the wants and tastes of his hearers, so as to keep a safe and friendly asylum at Nazareth, amongst the scenes and people He had loved from childhood. It is clear that some of his family, if not his mother herself, were already seriously alarmed and displeased. They disliked what they had heard of His teaching a...t Jerusalem and on His way home, which they felt must bring Him to ruin, in which they might be in- volved. He must have seen and conversed with them in his own home before that icene in the synagogue, and have had then to endure the bitter pain of alienating those whom He loved and respected, and had reason to love and respect, but who could not for the time rise out of the conven- tional, respectable way of looking at things. To stand by what our conscience wit- CHRIST S MINISTRY. ACT I. 93 nesses for as truth, through evil and good report, even against all opposition of those we love, and of those whose judgment we look up to and should ordinarily prefer tc follow ; to cut ourselves deliberately off from their love and sympathy and respect, is surely, I repeat, one of the most severe trials to which we can be put.
