Lesson IV.—July 24,1881.
MOSES AND AARON.
Ex. IV. 27 31. “1-4-B. C. 1491.
INTRODUCTION.
After answering the objections of Moses as
in the last lesson, the Lord directed him to
gather the elders of Israel and go with them
to the king of Egypt. He is told to demand
from the king permission for the Israelites
to go three days' journey into the wilderness
and theie offer sacrifice to Jehovah. Moses
objects and is then endowed with power to
work miracles. Still further objecting,
Aaron, bis brother, is associated with him.
Obtaining permission from Jethro, he starts
with his wife and two sons for Egypt. On
the way he is met by Aaron, and here our
lesson begins.

notes.
I. The brothers meet.
V. 27. “The Lord said to Aaron.” Accor
ding to verse 14, the Lord had so moved on
the mind of Aaron that he was on his way
to meet Moses even before the latter started
from Midian. “Go into the wilderness.”
West of Midian. The Lord seems to have
told him where he would meet bis brother.
“Met him in the mount of God.” Sinai, and
where God had appeared in the burning
bush Seech. 3:l' Aaron was now eighty
three years old and Moses eighty. See ch.
7:7. “Kissed him.” We have no record
that they had met for forty years. The word
implies a mutual greeting.
V. 28. “And Moses told Aaron all the
words of the Lord.” We may easily con
ceive the scene. Moses, as he points to the
bush in which he had seen the wonderful
flame, tells the whole story to his brother,
carefully repeating what God had said to
him. He tells ofthe call,and of the objections
which he had made and how God had re
moved them. “And all the signs.” See
verses 2to 9. So the two brothers, called by
God to meet at Sinai, confer and wonder,
and we may suppose, prayerfully and joy
fully commend themselves to God as they
enter upon their great work.
11. Received by the people.
V. 29. “Went.” As the messengers of
.God. “Gathered together all the elders."
This they had been commanded to do.
The elders or older men would naturally be
selected as guides and counselors. There
seems to be an indication here that there
was some simple form of organization
among the Israelites at this time.
V. 30. “Aaron spake." According to the
arrangement in verse 16, Aaron had lived
constantly among the Israelites, while
Moses had been an exile for forty years, and
so ha now introduces the brother whom no
diubt many remembered as the child who
had been adopted by the Queen’s daughter.
“Did the signs.’ Which had been given of
God to secure the faith of the people of Israel
in these leaders. Aaron was now not only
spokesman, but miracle-worker. This he
continued to be for some time.
V. 31 "The people believed,” many of
whom assembled probably with the elders-
As the report of these miracles done in the
presence of the elders went out among the
people a general conviction arose in their
minds that these men were sent of God to
deliver them from their rigorous bondage.
“Visited," in the persons of Moses and Aa
ron. “Bowed their heads and worshiped.”
Bent their bodies with their hoads toward
the ground, expressive of humility and rev
erence. “Worshiped.” Adored. Though
so long in Egypt and even born there, they
believed in the God of their lathers. As the
report of the words and miracles of Aaron
went from point to point in the land of Go
shen, the pious Israelite bowed his head in
gratitude before the unseen Jehovah, and so
the scene where the elders stood was repeat
ed over all the land.
111. Refused by the king.
V. 1. “Afterward.” After they had been
accepted by the people as God’s messengers.
“Went in,” accompanied, no doubt, by the
representatives of the people. Ch. 3:18.
“Told Pharaoh.” The palace had been a
familiar place to Moses, but now another
king is reigning. “The Lord God of Israel.”
Jehovah, God of Israel. Moses had been
told to siy to Pharaoh that Israel was Jeho
vah'sson. Ch. 4:22. “Let my people go.”
A peremptory demand. “That they may
hold a feast.” The immediate object only is
mentioned. Pharaoh was neither to know
God’s ulterior purpose, nor does he ask. As
all nations were accustomed to hold festivals
in honor of their gods, Pharaoh would un
derstand this demand as one for permission
to worship Jehovah. Such a demand was
perfectly reasonable. The question natu
rally arises, Were these servants of God
simply pretending that they desired the
release of their people for worship, while
they intended a final escape from the land ?
In answer to such a question, it is enough to
say, that they were only doing as command
ed and God had a right to make such a de
mand as the one before us. Had Pharaoh
yielded to this then God would have de
manded more. Pharaoh need not be told
of God’s final purpose. “In the wilderness.”
Outside of Egypt.
V. 2. “Who is the Lord (Jehovah) A
reply full of contempt and bravado. He de.
nied any knowledge of Jehovah or any
obligation to him. “Neither will I let Israel
go. ” A positive refusal.
V. 3. “The God of the Hebrews.” This
title the king would understand. “Hath
met with us.” They give, doubtless, an ac
count of the manner in which they had
been sent. “Three days’journey.” A suf
ficient distance to take them entirely out of
Egypt and into the wilderness. ‘ Lest he
fall on us with pestilence or with the sword.”
This shows the necessity of their departure
’ in obedience to God’s command. Besides if
Pharaoh withholds his permission he may
still lose his slaves by a stroke from heaven.
V. 4 He treats their demands with a
haughty impatience. "Let.” Hinder. He
looks upon them as preventing the building
ofthe public treasure cities. "Get you to
vour burdens.” Addressed to the elders of
the people but including also Moses and
Aaron.
HINTS FOR TEACHING.
The teacher should diligently study the
whole story of the Exodus, reading carefully
all the portions of the book between those
of our lessons By repeated questions from
Sabbath to Sabbath he should keep the whole
story fresh in the minds of his pupils. Spec
ially should be keep prominent the Provi
dence of God in the life and work of Moses
and in the emancipation of Israel.
In the present lesson, bring out the scene
in which Moses tells his brother what God
had told him and then ask the scholars if
there is not some one to whom they can tell
the words ofthe Lord. Show distinctly the
faith ofthe people in God’s messengers and
ask if all believe Christ’s message of salva
tion. Exhibit the stubbornness of Pharaoh
and show how wicked it ia for us to refuse to
obey God’s commands.
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, JULY 21, 1881.
Lesson V.—July 3J, 1881.
MOSES AND THE MAGICIANS.
Exodus VII. 847.—8. C. 1491.
INTRODUCTION.
The result of the demand made by Moses
and Aaron upon Pharaoh, was an increase
of the severity of the burden laid upon the
Israelites. Toe king's officers were directed
not to furnish the straw used in making
bricks, but to compel the Israelites to gather
it for themselves, and yet to make as many
bricks as before. As they failed to make the
same number, they were beaten, and some
of them, making complaint to the king, were
sent away with harsh words. As these men
came back from the king, they met Moses
and Aaron, and accused them of being the
cause of their affliction. In great distress
these leaders went to the Lord, who gave
them assurance that the people should be
delivered. They are sent to Pharaoh a sec
ond time, and here our lesson begins.
OUTLINE.
I. The second demand, v. 8-13.
11. A plague threatened, v. 14-17.
NOTES.
I. The second demand.
V. 8, 9. “Shew a miracle for you.” At the
first demand made by Moses, no miracle had
been wrought. He is now told that the king
will require such a proof of their authority.
A miracle was recognized as sufficient evi
dence of a divine commission. While this
requirement on the part of the king was a
reasonable one, yet he made it with no dis
position to be convinced, but rather as a
challenge to them to do that which he be
lieved impossible for them. “Then." An
immediate answer should be given to his
haughty words. “Take thy rod.” The
wonderful shepherd's staff of Moses, which
be carried when God commissions 1 him at
the burning bush. Chapter 4:2 “It shall
become a serpent." The word translated
serpent here is not the one used in chapter
4:3. It is a more genera) term. Itissuppos
ed by Murphy that the reference here is to
the asp or basilisk, which was the emblem
of royalty among the Egyptians.
V. 10. "Went in.” Boldly and confident
of success. “Did so, as the Lord had com
manded.” All simple faith in God is accom
panied and shown by obedience to the divine
commands. “ Aaron cast down his rod” at
the command of Moses and in answer to the
demand of Pharaoh for proof of th< ir divine
mission.
V. 11. "The wise mei-." The learned
class. “The sorcerers.” The word here
probably means jugglers. To this class be
longed James and Jambres, mentioned in 2
Tim. 38. “Magicians.” A term including
both the others. “Did in like manner.’’
Whether this was a feat of legerdemain, or
an actual miracle performed through the aid
of evil spirits, it is idle to conjecture. “The
Scripture does not care to determine whether
a given work be done by natural or preter
natural means. It grants merely that the
thing in question has been done. It does
not concern the sacred writer or his readers
how the impression was made on the senses,
but only that in fact it was made.”—Murphy.
We may notice that these professional magi
cians were of the priestly caste, and so rep
resented the power of their gods. To Pha
raoh, then, it was a contest between the
Jehovah of the Israelites and the gods of
Egypt.
V. 12 “Aaron’s rod swallowed up their
rods.” By this one act the magicians were
dishonored, the sacred serpents were gone
and the power of God demonstrated to be
with Moses.
V. 13. “He hardened Pharaoh’s heart.”
The original here is the same as in verse 22,
and should be translated as there, “Phara .
oh’s heart was hardened.” It became firm,
unyielding, refusing to be convinced even
when Aaron’s rod swallowed the other. “As
the Lord had said." He who is omniscient
can easily predict the conduct of men.
<ll. A plague threatened.
V. 14. “He refuseth to let the people go.”
Pharaoh has now not only refused to obey
the demand made upon him at the first visit,
but also continued to refuse, notwithstanding
the evidence given in the second visit that
Mo.es was acting under the authority of God.
Now, a third time the man of God goes to
the king, and this time to make a threat that
any farther refusal on the part of Pharaoh
will be visited with a terrible judgment, »
V- 15. “ Get thee unto Pharaoh.” The
obstinate king cannot escape God’s messen
ger. He goes out in the morning from his
palace to “the water,” that is, to the Nile, to
offer his devotions to the river which was a
favorite deity with the Egyptians. Besides
this, a daily record of the rise of the river in
the season of inundation (the time of our
lesson), was kept under the immediate
supervision of the king. When he arrives at
“ the rivers’ brink ” he sees standing there
this same Moses with his wonderful rod.
V. 16. “The Lord God of the Hebrews has
sent me unto you.” Words which fell on
the ear of the monarch, but did not subdue
his will. “ Let my people go.”- The third
time this demand was made. “ Hitherto
thou wouldest not hear.” He is thus re
minded of his stubborn refusal, and by the
same words warned that refusal must cease.
V. 17. “I am the Lord." “Pharuoh is to
know, at least experimentally, if not sub
missively and penitently,” that Jehovah
reigns. “They shall be turned to blood.”
The rod was uplifted and the waters smitten
in the very presence of Pharaoh, and the
waters, whose deliciousness and healing
efficacy were a national boast, became loath
some to drink and a source of death to a 1
the fish therein. This was enough to show
that the Nile was not a god. In the follow
ing verses we learn that this change of water
to blood extended throughout the whole
land, and continued for seven days. When
the change came in the waters, the still un
yielding, obstinate king turned away from
the river atid went into his house as impeni
tent as ever.
REMARKS.
1. What a picture this lession gives us cf
the possible hardness of the human heart.
2. against God is not only
wicked but useless.
3. Every time we refuse to obey what we
know to be God’s commands, we make our
hearts harder and our prospect of eternal life
less.
4. Those who desire to sin can always find
some excuse.
5. Mrs. M. G. Kennedy, in “ The Baptist
Teacher,” gives the following illustration of
the way, in which a sinner, sensible of a
hard heart, may get rid of it. “ A minister
was once talking with a man in an inquiry
room. The man said, ‘My heart is so hard
it seems as it it was chained, and I cannot
come to Jesus.’ ‘Ah,’ said the minister,
‘Come along, chain and all;’ and he j ust
came to Christ hard-hearted, chain and all,
and Christ snapped the fetters and set him
free right there.”
“Out of work, and sick with my kidneys
for years,” wrote Mr. Alexander Kerris, of
Chenango Forks, N. Y., recently. He used
Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liver Cure. Now
he says, "I cheerfully recommend it to all
persons suffering in the same way."

Habit. —Some one has been trying
his hand on the word ‘habit,’ and he
works it out thus: “Habit is hard to
overcome. If you- take off the first let
ter it does not change “a bit.” If you
take off another you still have ‘a bit’
left. If you take off still another the
whole of ‘it’ remains. You take off
another, it .is not ‘t’ totally used up.
All of whicli goes to show that if you
wish to get rid of a habit you must
throw it off altogether.”
Ants.—Persons who are troubled
with ants in their houses may get rid
of them by rubbing the shelves with
gum-camphor. Two applications will
be sufficient, with a week intervening.

As a Remedy for Nervous Diseases.
WHAT THE MEDICAL PROFESSION
SAY ABOUT 11,
—AND
The Good Result* Attending lt« Use la
Headache, Neuralgia, Nervousness,
Indigestion, Sleeplessness,
and Paralysis.
CELERY has come into public notice within
the last few yean as a nervine, but aclentiflc ex-
Seriments and experience have proved beyond a
oubt that it controls nervous Irritation and
Sertodio nervous and sick headaches to a marked
agree.
Brown Squard says that Celery contains more
nerve food than any other vegetable or aubalance
found In nature Celery was first discovered and
used as a nervine by French physicians about 1867.
But a combination of the EXTRACT OF CELERY
AND CHAMOMILE, which has been but recently
introduced to the profeaaion and the public by Dr.
C. W. Benson, has produced such marvelous re
sults in curing nervousness and headaches, and
especially nervous and sick headaches, neuralgia,
paralysis, indigestion end sleeplessness, that it has
excited public attention ana newspaper com
ments, and many physlcans have tested the merits
of this preparation with the best results, as quoted
below from a few:
WHAT PHYSICIANS SAY.
"Dr. Benson’s preparation of Celery and Chamo
mile for nervous diseases is the most important
addition made to the viatrria medico In the last
quarter of a century."—Dr. J. W. J. Englar, of
Baltimore.
“These Pills are Invaluable In nervous diseases."
—Dr. Hammond, of New York.
“Dr. Benson's Pills are worth their weight in
gold in nervous and sick headache.”—Dr. A. H.
Schlichter, of Baltimore.
“Dr. Benson's Pills for the cure of neuralgia are
a success.''—Dr. G. P. Holman, of Christiansburg,
Virginia.
These Pillg are a special preparation, only for
the cure of special diseases, as named, and for
these diseases they are worthy of a trial by all
intelligent sufferers. They are prepared expressly
to cure sick headache, nervous nendache, dyspep
tic headache, neuralgia, nervousness, paralysis,
sleeplessness and Indigestion, and will cure any
