VER. 31—35. ST. LUKK. 497 Pharisees.Behold,saidHe, / castoutdevils,and I do cures todayand to morrow,and on thethirdday I shallbeper fected.He promisestodo what was displeasingtotheJews, namely,to command the evilspirits,and deliverthe sick fromdisease,untilin His own personHe shouldundergo thesufferingofthecross.But becausethePhariseesthought thatHe who was theLord ofhosts,fearedthehand ofHerod, He refutesthis,saying,NeverthelessI must walk today and tomorrow,and the day following.When He saysmust, He byno means impliesa necessityimposedupon Him, but ratherthat He walked where He likedaccordingto the inclinationofHis will,untilHe shouldcome to the end of thedreadfulcross,the time of which Christshews to be now drawingnear,when He says,To day and to morrow.
