Children’s Corner. Bsv. T. 0. BOYKIN, Bute 8.8. Evangelist, Ed BIBLE EXPLORATIONS. We read that the ark had been in the house of Abinadab at Kirjath-jarim for a long time, for the Israelites had grown careless and neglected it. David asked the people to go with him to bring it to Jerusalem, They set it upon a new cart and two sons of Abinadab drove the oxen. Now you must know that the ark was a most sacred thing and God had told them none but the priests must touch and no one look upon it till the priests had coverd it with the curtains of the tabernacle. It was the duty of the Levites to carry it upon their shoul ders when it was moved from one place to another. As they came to a certain threshing floor the oxen shook the ark and one of tbe men put forth his hand to touch it. This made God angry, so He smote him till he died there by the ark. Thus we see how God punished disobedience. David was displeased with the Lord and afraid of Him too, so he left the ark in the house of Obed-edom. God blessed this man and his family because of the ark and wh.enDavid hea-d it, he went again to bring the ark to Jerusalem. He did not put it on a cart again, but bad the Levites to carry it upon their shoul ders. When they had gone a little ways, David sacrificed to the Lord. He felt so glad he danced and leaped with joy. So David and the house of Israel brought up the ark with shoutingsand the sound of the trumpet. Michal, David’s wife, saw him dancing and she dispised him in her heart. She told him he had be haved shamefully and made himself low in the eyes of the people, but David said it was before the Lord he had done it. So they put the ark in the tabernacle which David had prepared for it and he offered burnt-offerings and peace-offer ings after which he blessed the people in the name of the Lord. David had a beautiful house he had built for himself and he wanted to build one for she Lord to keep the ark in. Nathan, the prophet, told him at first to build it, but God told Nathan he must not do so. God said he would let David’s son build it. He also promised David to bless his seed and establish his king dom forever. Then David offered prayer and thanksgiving to the God who had raised him to be king over his peo ple Israel. , .. .. David went to war against the heathen kings and : u'idued them. He made them his servants and took from them large numbers of horses and chariots, gold, silver and brass. The Lord blessed him and was with him wherever he went, and he was a wise and just king. David also remembered the covenant he had made with Jonathan, and he asked if any of Saul’s family were left, that he might show kindness unto them for his friend’s sake. Ziba, a servant of Saul, told him of a ton of Jonathan and where he was. David sent for him and said to him I will surely be kind to you for your father’s sake. I will restore to you all the land of Saul and you shall eat at my table continually. David called Ziba and said to nim, I have given your master’s son all that belonged to Saul and his house; now you, your sons and servants must cultivate bis land, but he shall live with me as one of. my sons. So it was all done as David said. QUESTIONS. ’ 1. The name of the man who died by touching the ark ?. 2. Whose threshing-floor was it ? 3. How long had the ark been in the house of Abinadad ? 4.

Lesson X. —December 4,1881. BALAAM. Num. XXIV. 10 19 —B C. 1452. Read Num. xxn, xxm and xxiv. INTRODUCTION. After the incident of our last lesson, the Israelites resumed their march, and. passing round the land of Moab, asked permission oi Sihon, King of the Amorites, to pass through his territory. This the king refused, and gathering his armies, went forth to meet them and prevent their advance. He was utterly defeated in his purpose, and all his cities and villages fell into the bands ol Israel. Then Og, the King of Bashan, and his people, attempted to prevent their ad vance, and were, in like manner, defeated— their land, also, falling into the hands ol Israel. After this the Israelites pitched their tents in the plains of Moab, on the eastern side oi Jordan, opposite Jericho. Balak, the Kuig of the Moabites, became greatly distressed because of their presence, and sent for Ba laam, a man endowed with tbe gift ol prophecy, to come and curse Israel, so that he might attack and overcome him The prophet, though eager for gain, was forbid den by God to go. So the messengers returned without him Balak, in his anxiety, sent again, and this time messengers more nu merous and more honorable than before This time the Lord permitted him to go, but with the assurance that it was without his approval. On the way occurred the incident of the ass speaking. When he reached Ba lak be could not utter a single curse against Israel, but three successive times, from three different hills, blessed them. Here our lesson commences. OUTLINE. I Balak’s anger, v 10, 11. 11. Balaam’s answer, v. 12-14. 111. Balaam’s prophecy, v. 15 19. NOTES. I. Balak’s anger. V. 10 “Kindled.” Excited to action. “Against Balaam.” Because he had blessed Israel instead of cursing him. No doubt the concluding words of verse 9 had particularly excited him. “Smote his hands together.” A method among O. iental people of express ing disappointment and violent rage. “ I called thee ” Earnestly, repeatedly and with promise of reward. “To curse.” To prophesy evil against them. Among many nations of antiquity, there existed a custom of devoting enemies to destruction before making war upon them. There was also a belief that prophets and priests had power to bring curses from the gods whom they claimed to represent. “ These three times.” Repeated disappointment. V. 11. "Flee thou to thy place.” Be off to your own country as fast as you can. An impatient, scornful dismissal. “I thought to promote thee ” See 22.17. It was sin cere purpose. “The Lord hath kept thee bick from honor.” A reference to the fre quent asser’ion of Balaam that he could do only as the Lord should permit him. There was in these words an expression of anger towards the Lord himself, as well astoward- Balaam. But see how the Lord kept back Balaam from the honor by keeping him from committing sin. 11. Balaam’s answer. V 12. “Spake I not.” To the messengers whom Balak sent the second time. Ch. 22:18 To the first messengers he had simply said that the Lord refused to allow him to go. V. 13 “I cannot go beyond the command ment of the Lord. He felt that he was restrained by the Lord. He would, but for this restraint, havf been willing enough to serve Balak. “Os mine own mind.” Accord ing to any wish he might have. He could not control inspiration, but inspiration con trolled him. “ That will I speak.” That 1 must speak. V-14 “I go unto my people,” as you com mand. “I will advertise thee.” Makeknown to you. “ Shall do to thy people in the lat ter days ” What the Israelites should do to the Moabites in future times. There is an implied comfort to Balak in these words, in that what was predicted would not occur in his day. 111. Balaam’s prophecy. V. 15 “Parable,” or prophecy in poetic language. “Whose eyes are open,” so as to see what others see not. V 16. “ Which heard the words of God.” What be is about to say he learned from God. “Saw the vision of the Almighty:” Tbe vision of the future of Israel which the Lord gave to him. “Falling into a trance.” Literally, lying, that is, in sleep. “ Having his eyes open.” The eyes of his mind. V-17. With this verse the prophecy begins. “ I shall see.” Rather, I do see, “ Him.” The being to whom the following words refer. “ But not now.” These words are to be interpreted by the corresponding words which follow, viz: “but not nigh.” He sees him in vision, but he is far off. both in time and in distance. “ A star.” This term, in the hieroglyphic language of the East, de-> notes some eminent ruler, as does, also, the word “ Sceptre.” The reference is to David. 1 Shall smite the corners of Moab.” - The term "corners,” or border, is here put for the whole country. 2. Sam 8.2 mentions a lit eral fulfillment of this as occurring in the time of David, four hundred and twelve years after the prediction. “ Destroy all the chil dren of Sheth.” What is meant here is not clear. Some think Sheth to have been a famous king among the Moabites. Others suppose it to have been a city of Moab which David utterly destroyed. Others, still, think that the word was not a proper name, but an appellative and translate “ the sons of tumult,” that is, the wild warriors of Moab. V. 18 “Edomshall be a possession.” Shall be subdued and occupied by the ruler pre dicted. "Seir.” Another name for Edom This double conquest of Moab and Edom is referred to in Ps. 60.8 and 108:9 V. 19 “Shall come he.” David. No doubt the ultimate reference is to the Messiah, who shall subdue ell nations to himself. “ That remaineth of the city.” The idea is, that even those who flee from the open country into the fortified cities, shad be destroyed. Balaam was a prophet of the Midianites and is said, in Num. 22:5, to have resided at Pethor. The exact location of this place is not known, but is state:’, in Deut. 23:4, to have been in Mesopotamia. He speaks of him self as being “ brought from Aaron out of the mountains ot the East.” Num. 23 7 He was probably a descendant of Shem, and possessed many just ideas of tbe true God. He was never, however, a true worshiper of Jehovah, and died among the enemies of Israel. See Num, 31:8, Josh 13.22, REMARKS. "In this lesson we are told how a ba J man —a man who tried to harm God’s people, so as to make money out of their harming— had a glimpse of the coming Jesus. This shows that God can use a bad man for a good purpose. It shows, also, that our knowing the truth does not give us the benefits of the truth. We may know what God has prom ised of good—know more about it than our neighbor—and yet get no gain from that good, or from our knowledge of it. If ye know God’s words, happy are ye if ye do them."
