It was a stirring greeting which the Lord of Life spoke to His first
disciples on the morning of the resurrection. It is a bright and radiant
word which, in His Name, we would speak to His beloved children at
the commencement of another day. it means a good deal more than
appears on the surface. It is really a prayer for our health, but which
none but those who believe in the healing of the body can fully
understand. A thoughtful friend suggested once that the word "hail"
really means health, and it is just the old Saxon form of the word. We
all know that a hale person is a healthy person. Our Lord's message,
therefore, was substantially that greeting which from time
immemorial we give to one another when we meet: "How is your
health?" "How are you?" or, better still, "I wish you health." Christ's
wish is equal to a promise and command. It is very similar to the
apostle John's benediction to his dear friend Gaius, and we would re-
echo it to our beloved friends according to the fullness of the Master's
will. I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health,
even as thy soul prospereth (3 John 2).
