Children’s Corner. 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. QUESTIONS. 1. In what hill did Saul pitch his tent? 2.

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.

"Female Complaints.”—Dr R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y : Dear Sir—l write to tell you what your “Favorite Prescription" has done for me. I had been a great sufferer from female complaints, especially "dragging down,” for over six years, during much of the time unable to work. I paid out hun dreds of dollars without any benefit until 1 took three bottles of the "Favorite Prescrip tion,” and I never had anything do me so much good in my life.
