Children’s Corner. 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. QUESTIONS. 1.

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.
