Rev. T. 0. BOYKIN, State 8. 8. Evangelist, Ed
BIBLE EXPLORATIONS.
David had other sous beaidesSolomoc.
The name of one was Absalom, aud in
all Israel there was no one so praised for
his beauty. From the sole of his feet to
the crown of his bead there was no
blemish in him. His hair was thick and
long. He had a brother named Ammon
who sinned against him; then he killed
him. David was very ang>y and Absa
lom fled to another country where he
remained three years. The soul of
David longed to go forth to Absalom, for
he was comforted concerning the death
of Amnon, nut it was not till Joab,
through the widow of Tekoa, interceded
for Absalom that he had him brought
back. But David said let him go to his
own house and let him not see my face.
So Absalom lived in Jerusalem two full
years without seeing the king’s face.
Then he sent for Joab, intending to send
him to the king, but Joab did not come,
even after he was sent for the second
time. Then Absalom made his servants
set Joab’s Held of barley on fire. That
made him come. He said, why have
your servants set my field on fire ? Ab
salom answered, I sent for you that I
might send you to ask the king why I
was brought here. I had as well re
mained where I was. Let me see the
king’s face and if there is iniquity in me
let him kill me. So Joab told the king,
and when he had called for Absalom he
came aud bowed himself on his face to
the ground, and the king kissed Absa
lom.
It came to pass after this that Absa
lom prepared him horses and chariots
and he had fifty men to run before hie
chariot when he drove out, j ust as though
be was some great man. He also got up
early and stood by the gate of the city
and when any one came in to make com
plaint before the king or ask help of him
he would say to him, O, that I were
judge in the land, I would give yon jus
tice and givey »u what you want. Some
times a man would bow down before him
because he was the king’s son, then he
would reach out his hand to him and
kiss him. In this way he stole the
hearts of the people, for he deceived
them by making them believe he W'as
their friend.
Many years after Absalom’s return he
said to the king, I pray thee let me go to
Hebron, for while I was banished I
made a vow to God if He would bring
me again to Jerusalem I would serve
Him. I want to go and fulfill my vow.
David said, go in peace. Absalom did,
indeed, go to Hebron, but not to offer
sacrifices! He sent spies throughout
all Israel, who said to the people, as
soon as you hear the sound of the
trumpet ye shall say, Absalom reigneth
in Hebron. He also sent for king David’s
counsellor, a mighty and wise man, and
the people of Israel increased continu
ally with Absalom.
Os course all this could not be kept
from David. A messenger came to him
saying, the hearts of the men of Israel
are after Absalom. David was sore
afraid and said to his servants, let us
flee at once lest he come upon us sud
denly. So he with all his household
went forth and tarried in a place afar off.
All the country wept with a loud voice,
for great was their distress.
The priests and Levites started to cany
the ark but David said, carry it back
into the city. If I And favor in the
Lord’s eyes He will bring me back and
show me both it and his habitation, but
if He say, 1 have no delight in thee, be
hold here am I, let him do to me as
seemeth good unto Him. He said to
Zadok and Abithar, you return to the
city and I will tarry in the wilderness
till you send me word.
David went up Mount Olivet, weeping
as he went, with his head uncovered
and his feet bare. All the people that
were with him covered their heads
and wept also as they went. Someone
told David that his counsellor was with
Absalom, then David prayed that his
counsel might be turned to foolishness.
Hushai, David’s friend, wanted to go
with him but David told him to return to
Jerusalem and keep him informed about
Absalom; in that way he could do him
the best service.

Lesson XII. —December 18,1881.
REVIEW.
Our lessons for the quarter opened with
an account of the free gifts of the Israelites
in materials and in time for the erection and
furnishing of the tabernacle. This occurred
probably in the autumn of 1491 B. 0., ac
cording to the Bible chronology- The peo
pie, then in the wilderness before Mount
Sinai joined cheerfully in the work, rulers
and ruled, men and women, giving, of such
as each had and of the best each had.
Then we saw the workmen, some half
year later actually erecting the tabernacle.
Trie chief workmen were specially called
and specially qualified by God. Nothing in
the form or material of the building was of
human design. Then first God’s house ap
peared among men. There Jehovah maui
lated his presence among his people.
In lesson three we learned of the burnts
offering, and offering made by him who had
already entered into covenant with God. It
was a distinct recognition of the righteous
claim of God on the unreserved devotion of
bis creatures and an acknowledgment of
guilt, on the part of the offerer, which de
served death.
Then in lesson four we considered the
peace offering which denoted a communion
of ft iendship between God and his people,
while the death oi the victim reminded
those, who would enter into this commu
nion, of their personal guilt and signified
that without atonement God would never
hold friendly intercourse with sinful man.
Every believer of to>day should eari-edly
stek to bring others to share it with him.
Our next incident was that of the two
young priests but recently consecrated for
their work, offering strange fire before the
Lord. Their terrible and sudden death
teU-jht us how jealous God is of his holiness
and’how sure he is to punish violations of
his commands. From this account we
learned too that those who minister in God's
name should seek to be holy men, doing
just what God has commanded and teaching
just what he has required to be taught.
Then followed a lesson on “The Bay of
Atonement ’ when the High Priest with
blood, making atonement for the tabernacle
and for the altar, “for himself, and for his
household, and for all the congregation of
Israel,’’ stood as the representative of the
whole nation. Then he solemnly took the
l.ve goat and lajing both hands upon his
head, confessed all the iniquities of the
children of Israel, putting them on the head
o'thegoat, and sending them and him away
into the wilderness Thus were we pointed
to our High Priest who is without sin and
who. having entered heaven, is always in
God's presence to make intercession for us.
Our course then took us to the Feast of
Tabernacles, an annual festival in comment'
oration of the time when Jehovah made the
people to dwell safely in booths, after he had
delivered them from Egypt. It was also a
thanksgiving festival after all the harvests
of the year had been gathered in. In this
lesson we were taught that the worship of
God is one of great aud constant joyfulness.
Then followed a lesson on that wonderful
Year of Jubilee, a year not only of rest for
the lands but of social and political testora
tion as well. The trumpets announcing its
arrival was blown on the day of atonement,
the day on which the sins of the whole peo
ple were forgiven. Every Israelite bonds,
man was made free and every one who for
any reason had parted with any or all of his
land returned again to its possession. 'The
effect of this arrangement was to preserve the
nation as one people unmixed with others
and to insure complete tribal and family
genealogies, a matter most importantas fur
nishing positive proof that Jesus of Nazareth
was the Messiah of the prophets.
Then came that lesson so full of gospu
meaning, that of the Serpent in the Wilder
ness. The Israelites journeyed from Mount
Hor around Edom toward Canaan. Dis
couraged and angry because they were going
back toward the Bed Sea, aud by a long j >ur
uey over a sandy region, impatient and fret
ful, they murmured against G..d and Moses
and with extravagant words declared that
they had been brought there to die and
actually despised the provision which God
bed made for their sustenance. Bitten by
fiery serpents whose venom caused most in
tense pain they were brought to confess
their sin and to beg Moses to intercede with
God for them that the serpents might be re
moved. At God’s command a brazen ser
pent, was lifted up on a pole and every bit
ten Israelite who looked at it humbly and
believingly was cured. Our Savior in his
conversation with Nicodemus declared that
as this serpent was lifted up, so he must be
lilted up, that men might have eternal life,
lu comparil g these,we fii.d 'bat eacli was ap
parentiy impotent to save, that each was
God's appointed means, and that in each
case too look wu- to live. Compare the ex
pressions in this lesson with those in the
Gospels. Here it is, “If any man" and in
the Gospel "Whosoever will.” Here "When
he looketh” and there "Hethat believeth.”
Here "Shall live” and there ‘ Shall be saved.”
The whole matter in the case of the bitten
Israelite and thatof the sinner to-day,is sum
med up in the three following expressions :
1. Consciousnets pt sin. 2 Desire for deliver
ance. 3 Faith in [appointed means. In
these is salvation. In this lesson we met the
Israelites near the close of their forty years’
wanderings.
Next we were taught of Balaam, whom
God used to bless his people. By him the
coming power of David was foretold and ttie
future dominion of Christ.
Last of all we studied the last command
of Moses to the people whom he to long led,
and God's command to him to go up into
Mount Nebo, where he should die. Because
of his great transgression at Meribah Ha
desh he was not allowed to enter the prom
ised land but must die afier having seen it
from afar. 8o strict is God in dealing with
sin, but God is also love and received Moses
into a better land. So ends our quarter’s
study.
