SimdaySchool ' Lesson' (By REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D.D.. Teacher of English Bible in the Moody Bible Insti tute of Chicago.) (®, 1»2«, Weatern N'ewapaper Union.) Lesson for June 22 REVIVAL UNDER EZRA AND NE HEMIAH LESSON TEXT—Neh. 8:1-18; 13:1-8; 15-31. GOLDEN TEXT—‘‘Return unto me, and I will return unto you. ealth the Lord of hosts."—Mai. 3:7. PRIMARY TOPIC —Learning From God's Word. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP IC—The Value of Bible Study. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—The Bible in the Life of a Nation. The lesson committee has desig nated this as reforms, but It was more than reform. It was a revival. It re quires the quickening of God’s spirit to induce men, especially a whole na tion, to turn to God from their sins. This is a fine illustration .of the right ful place of God’s word in the life of a nation. I. The Word es God Being Read (Neh. 8:1-8). 1. The Eager Assembly (v. 1). The people gathered themselves together and spake unto Ezra to bring the book of the law. The people with yearning hearts requested the reading of God’s Word. 2. A Representative Assembly (v. 2). It was made up of men, women and children. The men did not leave the spiritual affaiVs to the women, neither were the children left at home. 3. An Appreciative Assembly (t. 3). So eager were they to know God's Word that they did not get tired, al though the lessons lasted for five or six hours. Their ears were attentive from morning until midday. 11. The People’s Attitude Toward God’s Word (Neh. 8:4-0). 1. Reverence Shown God’s Word (vv. 4, 5). When Ezra opened the Law, all the people stood up out of respect for God’s Word. 2. They Joined Heartily in the Prayer. As Ezra in prayer they joined heartily in saying, “Amen, Amen.” bowing their faces to the ground. 111. God’s Word Being Interpreted (Neh. 8:7, 8.) The attitude of the people toward God’s Word largely depends upon the minister. 1. He Stood Up the People Could See Him. (v. 5). 2. He Rend Distinctly (v. 8). Much Bible reading is greatly to the dis credit of the Word and the reader. 3. Caused the People to Understand the Reading (v. 8). The supreme busi ness of the minister nnd teacher is to make the Word of God so plain that all —old nnd young—can understand. IV. The Effect of Applying God’g Word to National Life (Neh. 8:9-18). 1. Conviction of Sin (v. 9). The Word of God is quick and powerful Heb. 4:12). It brings conviction of sin (Acts 2:37). God's method of con victing men of sin is to have His Word applied by the Holy Ghost. 2. Weeping Turned Into Joy (vv. 10-12). When sins have been per ceived and confessed God would not have His children to be sad. Con tinued mourning will not atone for the sins that are past. It unfits one for present tasks and dishonors a pardon ing God. 3. They Shared Their Blessings With Others (vv. 10-12). True joy manifests itself in giving to others. 4. The People Obeyed (vv. 13-18). In their acquaintance with the Scrip tures they found that the Feast of the Tabernacles had been long neglected. They went to work and kept this sa cred feast In away that It hud not been kept since the days of Joshua (v. 17). 5. Separation From the Ungodly (Neh. 13:1-3). As soon as they had heard the Word of God, they sepa rated themselves from the mixed mul titude. 0. The House of Worship Was Cleared and Order Restored (Neh. 13:4-14). No nation can be strong which neglects Its worship of the true God. 7. Restoration of the Sabbath (Neh. 13:15-2). Israel had long violated the Sabbath. Unnumbered evils follow In the wake of Sabbuth desecration. To ignore the essential law of the Sab bath Is national suicide. 8. Restoration of God’s Law of Mar riage (Neh. 13:2.3-31). When those who had intermarried with the heathen were brought face to face with their sin, they separated them selves from their ungodly companions, because they could not have God’s favor while living In disobedience to His Word.
