1 SUNDAY, AUGUST, 28, 1S23 TM BANNER-HERALD. ATHENS. GEORGIA Office 1201 . — By MRS. ALICE ADAMS Residence 832 FOR MI8S BACON’C BIBLE STUDY CLA8S Please study the following poem: THE TREE AND THE CHAFr 1. Blessed Is the man that walkcth not In the counsel of the wicked. Nor standeth In the Way of sin ners Nor sitteth in the sjeat of tho scornful. But his delight Is In the law of the Lord; And in IBs law doth he meditate day and night. 2. And ho shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water, That bringeth forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also doth not wither; And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. Tho wicked arc not so; But aro like the chaff which tho wind driveth away. 3. Therefore tho wicked shall not stand in the judgment. Nor sinners In the congregation of the righteous. For the Lord knowefth the way of tho righteous: .— But the way of tho wicked shall perish. How docs the-first stanza des cribe the conduct and tho ilnteicsts of the righteous man? Do you dis cover a gradual progression in walk, stand, sit; and -in tho wick ed, pinners, tho scornful? Tho Law of the Lord means here the revelation of God’s will as made known in tho Hebrew Scrip tures. Tho second stanza contrasts tho life devoted to learning and prac ticing the law of God with tho merely worldly lifo. The first Is like tbp rooted tree, passing through its ordered course of growth, foliage, nnd fruit-bearing. Tho second is finally mere empty chaff, driven hither and thither by forces outside itpelf. Ths righteous man shared the permanence of the righteous God. Tho way of tho wicked can only end <in nothingness. In destruc tion. The writer of this Psalm believ ed that a man could bo establish ed in righteousness by the devout study of the will of God as re vealed in the sacred Scriptures. Such a man would meditate daily upon what these revealed of God’s will for, men. Our present age Is busy with hurried rushing to and fro; wo aro keyed to tho automo bile, the daily neuspaper, the moving picture. But somewhere in tho day wo must mako a quiet period in which to deal with the enternal things; with prayer am God and our relation to Him. Otherwise we too shall perish with iho perishing things to which wo have given our allegiance. PARHAM-WOODALL Mr. Henry J.
