R»v. T. 0. BOYKIN, Bute 8.8. Evangelist, Ed
BIBLE EXPLORATIONS.
We find Saul still pursuing David.
The Ziphites told him where David was,
and he went to the country of Ziph to
find him. When David knew that Saul
had really’ come, he said to the men with
him, Who will go with me to the camp
of Saul? Abishai said that he would.
So David and Abishai went by night to
where Saul lay sleeping with his spear
stuck in the ground at his bolster, and
the people lying around him. Abishai
would have slain him but tor David, who
said the Lord would punish Saul in some
way, but be must not. They took Saul's
spear and cruse of water and went away.
Mo man saw or knew anything of it, for
all were sleeping soundly. Tnen David
went on the other side and stood on a
hill afar off, from whence he called to
Abner, charging him with unfaithfulness
to his king. He said, You deserve to die,
for you have not kept your master.
Where is the king’s spear and cruse of
water? Saul knew his voice and said,
Is this thy voice, my son David? He
answered, It is my voice, my lord, O,
king. He also eaid, Why do you pursue
me; what evil have 1 done? If the
Lord stirred you up against me, let him
accept an offering, but if it is the work of
men let them be cursed before the Lord.
Saul felt sorry then and said, “I have
sinned, return, my son David, I will no
more do thee harm, became mywas
in thinethis day. I have played
aud have... .exceedingly." David
said, As thy life was much set by this
day in my eyes, so let my life be in the
eyes of the Lord. Saul’s last words were,
Blessed be thou, my sou David, thou
shall do great things and shall still pre
vail. Then they parted.
David could not trust Saul’s fair words.
He was afraid he would deceive him, so
he escaped at once to Achish, king of
Gath, iu t..e land of the Philistines. The
king gave him a place in which to dwell
and he made that his home for a long
time.
David and his men went out against
the Geshurites, the Gezrites and the
Amalekites. They smote the land, left
neither man nor woman alive. They
took away the sheep, oxen, camels, ap
parel and returned. They left no one to
carry back the news to Gath. When
Achish asaed where they had been, Da
vid said, Against the south of Judah.
Achish believed him aud thought, He
has made his people hate him, he will
be my servant forever.
It came to pass in those days that the
Philistines gathered themselves togeth
er to fight Israel, and David went with
them. Now Samuel had died, and Saul
had put away those that hail familiar
spirits and wizards. The twojarmies went
out and camped against each other.
When Saul saw’ such a host he was
afraid; his heait trembled greatly. He
enquired of the Lord, and when the
Lord answered him not, he said to his
servants, Seek me a woman that has a
familiar spirit that I may enquire of her.
They told him of one at Endor. Then
Saul disguised himself, took two men
with him, went to her by night and said,
Bring me him up whom I shall name.
At Saul’s urgent request she called up
Samuel, who said, Why have you troub
led me to bring me up ? Saul said, lam
sore distressed, for the Philistines make
war against me. God has left me and
will not answer me; so I have called up
you to teil me what to do. Then Samuel
answered, W hy do you come to me when
God has become your enemy? The Lord
has done as he spake by me, taken the
kingdom from you and given it to David,
because you obeyed not his voice.
Moreover, the Lord will give Israel into
the hands of the Philistines, and thou
and thy sons shall be with me to-mor
row. Saul fell upon the ground and was
very weak and airaid. The woman pre
pared some food of which Saul and his
servants ate, tho’ Saul did so reluctantly.
They rose up and went away that same
night.

THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES.
Lev. XXIII. 33 44—8. C. 1490.
INTRODUCTION.
Three great historical leasts or festivals
were ordained by God to be observed by the
Jews. These were, 1, the Passover, so named
because the night before their departure, the
destroying angel, who slew the first-born of
the Egyptians, passed over the houses of the
Hebrews. 2. The Feast of Pentecost, or the
Feast of the Fiftieth, so called because it was
celebrated on the fiftieth day after tbe second
day of the Passover, the word Pentecost
meaning fiftieth. 3. The feast of Taberna*
cles, which derived its name from the tents
or booths in which the people dwelt during
its continuance.
The first of these festivals commemorated
the coming of the Israelites out of Egypt, the
second the giving of the law on the fiftieth
day after their coming out, and the third the
forty years’ wanderings of the Israelites in
the desert.
The Passover was called also the Feast of
unleavened bread, because only unleavened
bread was allowed to be ealen during its
continuance. The Feast of Pentecost was
called also the Feast of Weeks, because it
was kept seven weeks alter the Passover.
Deut. 16:10. Sometimes it was called the
Feast of the first fruits of wheat harvest. Ex.
34:22. The Feast of Tabernacles was also
called the Feast of Ingathering. Ex. 23:16
The time of these festivals was so arranged
as to interfere as little as possible wi'h the
industry of the people. The Passover oc
curred just before the work of harvest com
menced, Pentecost at the conclusion of the
wheat harvest, and the Feast of Tabernacles
after all the fruits of the ground were gath
ered in.
All the feasts were observed wherever tbe
tabernacle was, and in after times at the
temple. Every male in the nation was re
qifired to attend them. Females were not
required to attend, but might if they pleased.
The probability is that, very many did attend,
especially on the Passover.
OUTLINE.
I. The duration, v. 33-36.
11. The offerings, v. 37- 39.
111. The design, v. 40-44.
NOTES.
I. The duration.
V. 34. “ The fifteenth day of this seventh
month.” Just six months after the Passover
and five days after the day of atonement,
and in October of our year. As the Hebrew
months began with the new moon, this fes
tival commenced at the time of the full
moon. “Tabernacles.” Not tents here, but
booths or rude temporal dwellings. “Seven
days.” This was strictly the deration of the
festival. It was followed, however, by a day
of holy convocation, which was spoken of as
an eighth day, as in verse 36. See Deut. 16:13.
“Unto the Lord." Iu obedience to his com
mand and as an act of worship.
V. 35. “A holy convocation.” A solemn
religious gathering. “No servile worn.” All
unnecessary labor must be omitted, and the
day must be kept as a Sabbath.
V. 36. “Seven days ye shall offer." There
should be religious services every day.
"Made by fire.” A burnt offering. Thus
the idea of self-consecration to the Lord was
made very prominent every day. “A solemn
assembly.” Rather, a festal asseaibly. It
was a day of peculiar but joyful solemnity.
11. The offerings.
V. 37. “The feasts.” The seven mentioned
in this chapter, viz: the Sabbath, the pass
over, the sheaf of first fruits, the pentecost,
the feast of trumpets, the day of atonement,
and the feast of tabernacles. “To offer an
offering.” The burnt-offerings of the Eeast
of Tabernacles were far more numerous than
those of any other festival. See Num. 29:12-
38. "Everything upon his day.” Exact
obedience was required in every particular.
On each day of the seven there were offered
two rams, fourteen lambs, and a kid for a
sin-offering. This sin-offering is probably
what is referred to in the word “sacrifice”
in this verse. Notice tbe peculiarity in the
arrangement for the sacrifice of bullocks.
Thirteen were offered on the first day, twelve
on the second, eleven on the third, and so
on, reducing the number by one each day
till tbe seventh day,when seven were offered.
Thus the whole number offered during the
feast was seventy.
V. 38. “Beside the Sabbath,” etc. None of
their Sabbath offerings, their gifts, their vo
tive offerings aud their free-will offerings
were to be omitted, but the offerings of verse
37 were to be in addition to these.
V. 39. “Also.” Rather, certainly. “Have
gathered.” Literally, in your gathering. So
one design of this festival was to give thanks
to the Lord for the harvest gathered. “ A
Sabbath.” Not tbe weekly Sabbath, but a
day to be observed like a Sabbath. "On the
eighth day.” For the offerings of the eighth
day see Num. 29:36 38.
111. The design.
V. 40. "The boughs.” In tbe margin of
our Bibles it is rendered fruit. The referent e
is without doubt, to the branches considered
as the product of the trees. “Goodly trees.”
Ornamental trees. “ Thick trees. Trees
having very abundant foliage. “Willows ot
the brook.” Probably our weeping willows
as we term them. “Rejoice before the Lord
The great characteristic of the festival. The
Lord wants his people to be joyous. “ Re
joice in the Lord alway,” says the Apostle
Paul to the Phillippians.
I V. 41. "A statute forever.” This festiv; 1
was to be observed as long as the Jewish
nation remained the people of God.
V. 42 "In booths." The same word is
rendeied tabernacles in verse 34. They were
formed of the boughs of trees. When this
festival was celebrated in Jerusalem, the
booths were constructed in the courts of
houses, on the roofs, in the court of the
Temple, in tbe street of the waler gate, and
in the street of tbe gate of Ephraim. See
Neh. 8:16 We have also in the same chap
ter, verse 15, the kinds of trees from wlrch
branches were taken in the time of that,
prophet. "Seven days" On tbe morning
of tbe eighth day they left the booths and
returned to their houses. "Israelites born."
Proselytes were not included, as they were
not brought out of the land of Egypt.
V. 43. "May know.” etc. Tbe great design
of the feast of tabernacles is here slated "To
dwell in booths." There is no account of
their dwelling in booths. It is supposed
that they must have dwelled in them at
Succoth. their first halting place after leav
ing Egypt, from which fact the place derived
its name, Succoth or booths.
REMARKS.
Tbe object of the great festivals among the
Israelites was to perpetuate tbe memory of
great events wrought in their favor. They
were adapted also to unite in the worship of
Jehovah, the different tribe- and families.
The Old Testament religion was a religion of
great and constant joyfulness. It is always
the duty of Christians to recall God's good
ness to them with thankfulness.

what your “Favorite Prescription" has done
for me. I had been a great sufferer from
female complaints, especially "dragging

the time unable to work. I paid out hun
dreds of dollars without any benefit until 1
took three bottles of the "Favorite Prescrip
