Children’s Corner. Hev. T, 0. BOTKIN, Btats 8. 8. Evangelist, Ed BIBLE EXPLORAHONS. When Saul returned from following the Philistines, he was told where David was. He then chose a great number of men and went to seek David among the rocks. He came to a cave in which David and his men were hid, but he did not kn w that, and he went in too. He went to sleep there. Then David’s men wanted to kill him, but David would not do so—he only cut off a piece of his robe. When Saul went out of the cave, David followed him and cried ou>, *‘Mv lord the king 1” He turned back and David said, “why will you believe I seek your hurt? God'gave you into my hand to-day and I did not harm you. See, I have cut off the skirt of your robe —you know I do not wish to kill you or I would have done it. “The Lord judge between me and thee, and the Lord avenge me of thee.'' David spoke so kindly to Saul that he felt ashamed and seemed sorry. He said, “My son, David’’ and wept. He said too, “you are better than I am, for you have done good to me. when I have treated you wrong ; you spared my life when you had me in your power. May God bless you for doing so. I know now that you shall be king of Israel; promise me that you will not kill my children when lam dead.” David promised him so he Jwent to his home and David to his men. About this time Samuel, the good prophet who was “lent to the Lord” from a child, died. Israel mourned for him and buried him. , After Samuel’s death David went into a wilderness. In that country was a very rich man, who had thousands of sheep, and he was shearing them. He was a cross, crabbed man,, but strange to say, his wife was beautiful, sensible and good. David’s camp was near the place where the sheep were feeding, but he and his men I took not a one, nor troubled the shepherds. David needed food though, so he sent ten men to this rich man and bid them say to him. Peace be to thee, to thy house and to all thou hast. We have been kind to your shepherds and took none of your sheep —now return the kindness and give to thy servants and to thy son David. They did as David told them, but the rich cross man said,who is David ? There are many servants that leave their masters. Shall I take my shearers’ food and give to those I know nothing about? When the men returned and told David he said, put on you swords ; he put on his and took four hundred of his men to go punish the cruel man, for David was very angry. In the meanwhile a servant told the man’s wife. She made haste to prepare a great present for David and sent, her servants before her to carry it to him — but she told not her husband. As she went with her presents she met David and his men. As soon as she saw him she got down, bowed herself to the ground before him and said : Let me speak to you; but my lord think nothing of my husband, for he is a foolish man. She asked him to take the present she had brought, and forgive her. She told him God would bless him and make him king, and that when he was king he would be glad she bad kept him from killing any one. Then David thanked God for sending her to him, and thanked her for what she had said and done. He said to he r , Go home in peace, you have kept me from doing wrong. She went home, and next morning told her hus bond all. He died about ‘en days after; and David sent to the woman to come and be his wife—she did so. QUESTIONS. 1.

I am two years older, so I thought I would write. T. B. Cooper was the answer to her acrostic. I will send you one next week if you wish. I heard you tell the children Bible stories at Cedartown. Your little friend, Estelle F. Jones. Taylorsville, Oct., 3rd. Estelle has written a very nice little letter. We will be glad to get an enigma from her, and feel gratified that she remembers our talk at Cedartown. There are many sprightly little folks there and we often wonder whv some of them do not write to us. Wonder .if pastor or superintendent ever refer to the Explo rations in Sunday-schvol ? Dear Mr. Boykin: lam glad to fall in with the Explorations again and hope to learn the lessons regularly. lam happy also to tell you that I have found tne Savior since I saw you. I was baptized on the 19th of August. We had a good meeting at our church. Papa baptized 14 in all—l 2 the same day that I was baptized. He has just returned from the Association and was very much disap pointed because he did not see you. I suppose you had a good reason for not coming. Wish you would visit our Sunday-school again—can’t you ? I must close. All join me in love to you. Your little friend, Battey Swanson. Greshamville, Ga., Sept., 17ch, 1881. We lejoice with Battey that he has f jund the Saviour. We have prayed for him a long time. May he be a useful and happy Christian. We are glad to learn from Julia that he has made such a good beginning. We would have been at the Association, but thought Dr. De- Votie would go and went elsewhere. Glad to hear from brother Butts that the brethren had such a good time. It af fords us pleasure to welcome Battey back to our band, and hope he will always remain with us. Thanks to Julia for her letter. Glad to know she is pleased with the Bible sent. But didn’t she think it funny how the address was written ? The fault of the bookseller and somebody else - poor writing. The enigmas received and one goes in this week, another next. Try to send one every week if possible. Can we realize that "all things work to gether for good to them that love God ?” 1 think father does so as nearly as any one. God bless and comfort you all. Will come to see you when opportunity offers. We have several answers and enigmas from G. W. A. One appeals this week. She is one of our most faithful and atten tive explorers. But we want to request her and all the rest to give answers in full, not simply refer to Scripture. We can’t take time to look up the different passages. And it will confer quite a favor if enigmas are written on one side of the paper only, with answers on sep arate sheet and all written so that we will not have to copy for the press. We can always send Julia’s to the press just as they are received. These Explorations are written at brother David Brinson’s, Lowlands, Appling county, where we always find a cordial welcome. His good wife takes pleasure in doing all she can to contrib ute to our comfort. We have just returned from the Pied mont Association, where we met as warm-hearted brethren as we find any where. Advanced movements were made in missions and Sunday-schools. The Sunday-school work was put in the hands of the executive committee to call conventions and ma c s meetings as they may think practicable. This, to us, is a most satisfactory plan. The Association will co-operate with the State Board through its executive committee. We found the preachers alive on the subject of missions and all manifested a most liberal spirit. About SIOO were raised by the body, besides what was sent up from the churches. We feel gratified to Jesup church for remembering our work. Other churches and brethren have con' tributed liberally to our work. Ten Mile, $15,75; Consolation, $7,66; Hazle hurst, $4,25 ; Zion $15,00 ; Robert Car ter, $5,00. Our warmest thanks are hereby tendered to all for their kind ness and generosity. We were never more kindly received and more earnestly invited to visit the churches and schools. These brethren will always have a warm place in our heart and we hope to see many of them again during the early part of next year. Our venerable brother Blitch was Moderator and won all hearts by loving kindness and gentle manners. Young brother McLaughlin was elected Clerk. He has been a member of the church only three months and yet he has been made Superintendent of his Sunday -1 school and Clerk of his Association. May he grow rapidly in grace and knowledge. The church and community entertained the brethren generously. She has a devoted pastor and superm tendent—Rev. John Gardner and broth er Alex. O’Quinn. Both are good and true men. .

One week after the erection of the taber nacle, Aaron offered his first offerings, his four sons assisting hint. He made offerings for himself and then for the people. These offerings were made in the court in the presence of many witnesses. Then, having lifted up his hands and blessed the people, he and Moses entered the tabernacle. Com ing out, they together blessed the people, and immediately fire came out from before the Lord and consumed the sacrifice lying on the brazen altar. At sight of this the people shouted and fell on their faces In reverent worship. OUTLINE. I. The sin, v. 1. 11. The penalty, v. 2 7. 111. The warning, v. 8 11. NOTES. I. The sin. V. 1. “Nadab and Abihu.” The two eldest sons of Aaron. In our lesson on the taber nacle, we had the direction to anoint Aaron and his sons. In Lev- 9 we have the account of the anointing, and from it we learn that the consecration of Aaron and his sons occu pied one week. V. 33, 35. At the end of that time Aaron offered his first offerings, as mentioned in our introduction. Whether the incident of our present lesson occurred on the same day with the-e offerings, or at a later time, is uncertain. " His censer.” A small portable ves el of metal in which burning coals were placed and carried to the altar of incense. “Put incense thereon.” The pries*, when carrying the censer to the golden altar, would carry in the other hand some incense, which he sprinkled on the coals on arriving at the altar. “Strange fire.” This is generally understood to mean fire Other than that which burned on the brazen altar, which came out originally from before the Lord, and which was kept constantly burning. Chap. 6.13. “Which he comman ded them not ” In taking this fire they neglected to take that which had been com manded. After the death of his sons,Aaron was commanded, whenever he entered the most holy place with incense, to take burn ing coals from offthe brazen altar. Lev-16.12 This would seem to be a repetition of some previous command (not recorded) concern ingtheoffering of incense Takingcommon tire instead of that from the brazen altar, these priests committed an act of gross cares lessness and surprising irreverence. 11. The penalty. V. 2. "Went out fire from the Lord.'* Probably from the Holy of Holies, where God dwelled. "Devoured.” Killed. Neithtr , their clothing nor their bodies were touched by the fire, as appears from verse 5. They were instantly killed., as with a lightning stroke. ‘ Died before the Lord.” Just where they stood, and in the Holy place, and really before the Ark, although the veil hid it from their sight. V. 3. “Then Moses said to Aaron.” No doubt with a keen feeling of compassion for the father of these sinning sons. "This is it that the Lord spake.” No direct record is found of this language. It may have been spoken without being recorded. It was im plied, however, in the words directing the anointing of these men. See Ex. 40:13 15. "Sanctified.” Declared holy. "Them that comenighme.” Priests. "Glorified.” Hon ored. "Aaron held his peace.” Murmured not, nor complained, but submitted to the will of God. We may easily conceive how the father’s heart was tormented with an < guish as he looked upon the dead bodies \ his sons and listened to the words of Moses. > But against God he would not utter a word. V. 4. "The sons of Uzziel,” who were probably in the court at this time. "Come near.” They were Levites, but not being priests, they were not permitted to enter the holy place unless they were specially com manded so to do. "Carry your brethren.” Though second cousins to the dead men, they are called brethren according to Jewish custom "From before the sanctuary.” The sanctuary here is the Holy of Holies "Out ofthe camp.” They were polluted, and must be removed from among men. V. 5 "Intheircoats.” The very garments in which they had been consecrated were now polluted, and must now be buried with their bodies. V. 6. “Uncover not your heads, neither rend your clothes.” These were signs of mourning, and these men had on their offi cial turbans and garments, and must not now show any exhibition of private feelings. The whole house of Israel, not engaged in priestly service, might bewail the wicked deed and the awful judgment which came upon them, not so much the death of the wicked men. V. 7. "And ye shall not go out from the door.” They were not to leave the service of the Lord. " For the anointing oil of the Lord is upon you.” They were under obli gation to continue their service, notwith standing what had occurred. The service of the Lord must not be interrupted by tie wickedness of the sinning priests. "They did according to the word of Moses” Not from fear, but because they were observant of God’s commands in their hearts. 111. The warning. V. 8. “And the Lord spake unto Aaron. Heretofore he had spoken to him through Moses. Now He speaks to him directly as the High Priest. V. 9. "Do not drink wine,” etc. As these words follow immediately the account of the sin and punishment of Nadab and Abihu, it has been thought by some that these young men committed their sin while in a state of intoxication. This, however, is all conject ure and nothing more. The use of wine or strong drink is here forbidden to those who minister at God's altars. V' 10. ‘Ye may put difference. Ibe minister of God should have his mind al ways clear. .... , V. H. “That ye may teach” clearly and effectively. REMARKS. 1. They who teach God’s truth, should teach just what God has said. 2 They who minister in God s name must be holy. , , , 3. A good man's sons may be bad men. 4 Connection with the house of God does not prove a man to be holy. 5. Violations of God's law will be pun ished, Traveling men find it hard to keep in good health, owing to the constant change of water, diet, and the jarring of the cars. All these things injure the kidneys, while War ner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure is certain to counteract them. —lt is strongly said by GeorgeJMacdonald,: "Perhaps, the worst devil that a man can be possessed withal is, himself.” The Doctors Outdone.
