Rabshakeh Meets a Deputation From Judah (vr. 1-21). Kabshukeh was a representative of Sennacherib, the king of Assyria, whose mission was to Induce Judah to surrender. In order to accomplish this he: (1) Tried to bully them Into sub mission (vv. 4-9). He taunted them with their weakness and told them that Egypt was a broken reed that would not only fail of support but oven pierce the hand that reached out to it. He challenged them by offering 2,000 horses, if they would furnish riders for them. If they could not furnish this small number it would be futile for them to attempt to withstand the great Assyrian army. (2) He asserted that it was use lass for them to put their trust in God (v. 10). He even declared (hut the Lord had sent him to destroy Judah (3) He tried to create a panic among the people (vv. 13-21). Fear ing a panic among the people the deputation of the Jews urged Rab shakeli not to speak in the Jews’ language. Taking up the suggestion he spoke loudly in the Jews’ language, warning them against trusting in Heze klali. (4) He promised them plenty in an other land similar to their own (vv. 16, 17). He urged them to make agree ment with him and upon his/ return from Egypt he would take them to a land of plenty, but the people were loyal to Hezekiah, for they knew that the cruel Assyrians could not he trusted. 2. The Deputation Reports to Heze kiah (v. 22). They rent their gurments doubtless in fear and dismay over their perilous condition, for the crisis long before predicted by Isaiah had now come upon them. 11. Hezekiah’s Behavior (Isa. 37: 1-35). 1. Resorted to the House of the Lord (v. 1). This is a sure resort of God’s people in time of distress (Ps. 73:16, 17; 77:13). This action was prompted by faith, for God had prom ised that those who in time of distress resorted to His house would be heard by Him (II Chron. 7:15, 16). 2. Sent Isaiah (vv. 2-7). The logical and natural thing for the king to do under such circumstances was to send for God’s prophet. The prophet sent back words of encouragement to Hezekiah. assuring him that God would bring deliverance. 8. Hezekiah’s Prayer (vv. 14 20). Rabshakeh, who seems to have with drawn from Jerusalem for a little while, now returns from Sennacherib with a letter warning Hezekiah against trusting God for deliverance, assuring him that he would be deceived for no god wss able to stand against the As syrian army. He spread the letter be fore the Lord and prayed. (1) He recognized God's throne, making it the ground of his plea (v. 16). (2) He recognized the peril which threatened the people (vv. 17-19). Sennacherib had indeed laid waste the surrounding nations, hut that ruin re sulted because the gods of the nations were not real. (3) He asked for deliverance (v 20). He desired that deliverance would come in such away as to vindi cate and honor the Lord. 4. Isaiah’s Message to Hezekiah (vv 21-35). (1) That Sennacherib's sin was blas phemy against the Holy One of Israel (vv. 21-23). (2) That Sennacherib bad forgotten that he was an instrument In God’s hand (vv. 24-28). (3) Judgment upon Sennacherib was Imminent (vv. 29-95). Deliverance would soon come and that through the energy of the Lord of hosts. 111. Destruction of the Assyrian Army (vv. 36-38). The angel of the Lord went forth mul smote in the camp of the As Syrians 185.000 men, so Sennacherib was turned hack by the way he came He did not enter Jerusalem and after this defeat lie went back to Nlneveli to live and while there worshiping In tire house of his god he was as sassinated.

BQUWEEVIUtaL With the advent of cool weather in the fall, usually in October and No vember, boll weevils begin to seek protection against the winter. The majority of the weevils leave the field* and fly to the nearest shelter which may be adjoining timber. gT&ssy turnrowr or buildings. The direction of their flight is governed partially by the prevailing winds. The move ment takes place when an average temperature of 80 degree* la reached. Tbe movement into winter quarters is not sudden and many weevils may be found in fields after a majority have T»eft. In some cases it has been observed that more than a thousand weevils have been found In fields as Tate as December 18. The most favorable places for vrin j teiing are those in which there are the most even temperatures and where at the same time the conditions are comparatively dry. Spanish moss probably is the most favorable shel ter weevils obtain, but many survive the winter outside of the region in which Spanish mosß occurs, in grass, stumps, cracks in the ground and similar places. Very few are ever found in cotton seed. During the winter the weevils take no food and ordinarily do not move from the place they have hidden but sometimes during very warm spells a few in the exposed places may be seen crawling or flying about. The weevil passes the winter in !ii« adult stagq. When frosts occur immature stages still may be found in the squares or the bolls. If the food supply Is sufficient many of r rose immature stages continue their development at a vewy slow rate and finally emerge as adult weevils. Thus, there may be a somewhat continuous production of adults during the win ter Ordinarily, however, this is not the case, since the frosts that de stroy the cotton generally kill the grubs. The number o' weevils living through the winter varies greatly from year to year as shown by obser vations made at many localities for a number of years. In one year only one weevil out of a hundred survived, but, in another case, twenty out of each hundred lived through. The lat ter figure is undoubtedly exceptional and it appears that under average conditions throughout the greater part of the cotton belt not more than five weevils out of a hundred lived over to attack the crop the following year. The largest number lives through wb -re there is heavy timber Enough survive any winter to cause heavy damage if the spring and sum mer favors. The Sun and the Moon The sun rises and sets on the moon just as it does on the earth, says Na ture Magazine. However, the sun shines for about twenty-nine of our days on tbe moon, and then is below the horizon for an equal length of time.
