Genesis I., 14-26 — Golden
Text: Prov. tv., 18—
Commentary.
nnd 14. his “And brerhton •Tpseph returned into Egypt, ho
and all that went up with
him to bury his father, after he had buried
his father.'” For seventeen years did Jacob
Wijoy fehapter Joseph’s presence nnd care in Egypt
xlvii., 28) and died at the age of
147. having first blessed all his sons and
charged them to bury him beside Leah in tho
cave of Maehpelah where Abraham and
Sarah, Isane and Rebekah. had already been
laid. When Jacob was dyinc* he, with con
Adenee in the promises of Go ), Messed the
sons of Joseph, and assured Joseph that God
would brine them all out of Ej;ypt (Heb.
xi., 21 :Gen. xlviih, 21\
15. “And when. Joseph’s brethren saw that
their father was dead they said, Joseph will
peradventure hate us and will certainly re
quite us .all the evil which we did unto him."
That looks like a very mean estimate of their
brother, who had so freely and fully forgiven
them and had so abundantly cared for them
for so many years. One cannot read chap
ter xlv., 1-15, without seeingthat it was pure
unbelief and actually made Joseph a liar.
But it is just the way that many Christians
treat the Lord. They cannot believe that
He has nothing against them and that He
will never mention their sins, and so they
m ,« e T O Joba v -, 10).
Joseph, died, saying. Thy father did command be
fore he saying.” A messenger's only
responsibility is to receive and deliver his
message Lord’s correctly and promptly. Haygai
was the messenger with the Lord's
messaue (Hag. i., 13), and the message ae
complished the work. It is a pleasure to bo
the Lords messenger and is the highest
honor a mortal can here enjoy. But this
messenger was in poor employ and on a very
poor errand.
pravThee h 6 a y tre^pais^fthy'bret'^
I now, th e
ren and their sin. ’ This was no new sin
they were asking forgiveness for, but the old
wrong of thirty-seven years before which had
been fully forgiven for over seventeen
years. We have no record that Jacob ever
told his sous thus to appeal to Joseph. If he
did, he was as bad as they. Yet there ar«
Christians who, being assured of forgive
ness (Epb. i.,7; I John ii.. 12), are all the
time asking forgiveness for the same old
sins. No wonderJcseph wept. It is enough
to make Jesus weep to be so unbelievingly
regarded.
18. “And his brethren also went and fell
down before his face, and they said, Behold)
we be thy servants.” It was in fear they
came, begging for that which bad long ago
been given them. This is not the kind of
servant Jesus expects to find in those who
have been made nigh by His precious blood
ness)"but^serving beeau^^fo^Wen^is’the
right way. Serve tho Lord with gladness.
19. “And Joseph said unto them. Fear not,
^“hey had P X°ne°d’hJ^Himtot
they should have sought forgiveness. David
recognized this when he said, “Against Thee,
Thee only, have I sinned and done this evil
in Thy sight (Ps. Ii., 4). We must seek for¬
giveness viil., from 12), God, for all from sin is those against Him
(I Cor. and then against
whom we have offended.
20. “But as foryou, ye thought good evil against
me. but God meant it unto to bring it
to pass, as it is this day, to save much peo¬
ple alive.” In almost the very same words
had he spoken to them of this matter seven¬
teen years before. He reminds us of Jesus,
who is the same yesterday, to-day and for¬
ever (Heb. xni., 8), of Jehovah, who says,
“I am the Lord, I change not” (Mai. iii., 6).
21. “Now therefore fear ye not. I will
nourish you and your little ones. And He
comforted them and spoke kindly unto
them.” This is at least the fourth “fear not”
in this story Bible (xliii., 23 ; xlvi., 3 ; 1, 19). The
first in the is in Gen. xv., 1, and the
last is Rev. i.. 17, or ii., 10. but how many
heart comforting ones there are throughout
the book! I find constant comfort and
strength in such as I Sam. xxii., 23 ; Isa. xli.,
10, 13 : Joel ii., 21; Mark v., j!6. AVe are to
comfort others tvith the comfort wherewith
we ourselves are comforted of God (II Cor.
i., 4); therefore I pass them on.
.32. “And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he and
his father s house, and Joseph lived an hun¬
dred and ten years.” He avus (xli., thirty when he
first stood before Pharoah 48), so that
he had eighty years of prosperity and honor
in Egypt. He would be about fifty-six when
his father died , therefore he livod to make
good his word to his brethren for at least
23. “And third Joseph saw Ephraim’s The children
of the generation. children also
of Maehir. the son of Manasseh, were brought
up upon Joseph’s knees.’’ After Job’s afflic¬
tion he saw his son’s sons, even four genera¬
tions (Job xlii., 16). It is one of the bless¬
ings of the righteous to see children’s chil¬
dren and peace therewith (Ps. cxxviii., 6).
24. “And Joseph said unto his brethren, 1
die, and God will surely visit you and bring
you out of this land unto the land which Ho
sware This to Abraham, confidence to Isaac God. and to Jacob.”
was in By faith
Joseph, when he died, made mention of the
departing of the children of Israel and gave
commandment concerning his bones (Heb.
xi.. 22).
25. “And Joseph took an oath of the chil¬
dren of Israel, saying, God will surely visit
you, and ye snail carry up my bones from
hence.” So when Moses led Israel out of
Egypt he took the houses of Joseph, and
when their wanderings all had ceased they
were burled iu Shechem (Ex. xiii., 19;
Joshua xxiA'., 32). Joseph might have de¬
sired such a funeral as he gave his father
Hnd had his body at once buried in the land
of promise, but he was so sure of their going
up iu due time that he was content to wait
and let his body remain among them as a
token of their coming deliverance.
26. “So Joseph died, being an hundred and
ten years old, and they embalmed him, and
he was put in a ijoffln in Egypt.” Gathered
unto his people (xlix.. 33), his body still
awaits the resurrection of the just at the
coming of Christ (I Cor. xv.. 23; I Thess,
iv.. 16). These all died in faith, liof
having received the promises, Thess
all having obtained a good report through
faith received not the promise, God having
provided some better thing for us, that they
without us should not be made perfect (Heb.
xi.. 13, 39, 40). That unburied body was a
constant sermon to the Jochebed. believing remnant
such as Amram and parents ot
Moses, not to be discouraged by trials, but tc
wait for the deliverance, which was sure t(
come.—Lesson Helper.

Hearty Welcome YVnltiuur Them.
The fourth annual reunion of the
United Confederate Veterans has been
held, and before this meets the eye of
the reader the eight or ten thousand
men, heroes all, who followed the
southern cross, having come once more
to look into the faces of well loved com¬
rades, ami to consider and devise
measures for their mutual Welfare, for
the preservation of the truth of history
and the perpetuation of the memory
of their fallen comrades, will have re¬
turned to their several homes to re¬
sume their accustomed vocations.
Here was the real “army of peace.”
No assemblage of eight or ten thou¬
sand men ever met and mingled with
as many more, of all classes, ever
h Id in ihese United States a two
days jubilee characterized by such
perfect order, good behavior and gen¬
eral propriety of deportment. And
right royally have they been enter¬
tained. Birmingham has proven her¬
self a hostess worthy of tter noble
guests.
The South Carolinian was greeted
by his loved palmetto hanging out
from balconies; the eye of the Texan
kindled as it fell upon his lone star
fluttering in the breeze. The fronts
of houses and whole streets draped in
bunting of red, white and blue, be¬
spangled with stars, quickened every
pulse and veterans whose locks were
silvered and forms Lent under the
weight of } ears, inarched with a
tinner limn their wonted step as
they trod the pavements.
The number of veterans who at¬
tended cannot now be ascertained, and
indeed it is believed there were many
who failed to register, so that the ex¬
act number will never be known. The
estimates range from 6000 to 8000.
There were probably a> many stran¬
gers who came to join in the testi¬
fies of the occasion, to hear the ad¬
dresses and to see the magic city with
her various attractions. Among the
most distinguished visitors were Gov
eruors llogg of Texas, Tillman of
South Carolina, Stone of Mississippi,
and Turner of Tennessee. Of Con¬
federate generals and brigadier gener
ais there were present Gen. Stephen
D, Lee, Gen. W. L. Cabell, Gen.
Clement A. Evans of Georgia, Gen,
Geo. T. Anderson (“Old Tige”) of
Anderson, Gen. W. H. Jackson, Gen.
Mike BuJger and others.
MONUMENT FUND.
The sum of $2,200 was subscribed
by the several camps, aided by indi¬
vidual subscriptions, to the Chicago
monument fund. The graves of tlu
Confederates buried at Oak wood cem¬
etery, Ctiicago, are, by government
authority placed under control of the
United Confederate Veterans, and
Gen. John C, Underwood, major gen¬
eral, commanding the division in the
northern slates west of the Alleglie
nies, is charged with the care of tho
Confederate graves, not only in Oak
wood cemetery, hut those near the
prison camps, Chase, Morton, Doug¬
lass, Johnson’s Island, Cairo and
other places in his district.
Gen. Underwood is authorized by
ihe association to raise funds for the
care of these resting places of our
falleu comrades, and to erect a monu¬
ment to their memory.
THE BLUE WITH THE GREY.
It was a pleasing episode—the in.
iroduciioii, by General, Jackson of
General Miller, department command¬
er of the Grand Army of the Repub¬
lic. Gen. Miller came forward and
in language that touched tho tender
est feelings in the hearts ot the vet¬
erans, presented to General G >r
don a cane cut, from Barlow’s
hill iu testimony of the
high estimation in which the members
of the Grand Army of the Republic
regard the man and hero ivho, in the
midst of the carnage of Gettysburg,
touched wiih pity for a bleeding foe,
had the federal general, Barlow, re’
moved to a place of safety and saved
bis life. The presentation, General
Gordon’s eloquent and most appropri¬
ate remarks on receiving tlie cane, and
the shouts and cheers of Ihe audience,
made altogether a most thrilling
scene.

THE PICTURE OF HEiLTH
Hood’s Sarsaparilla Made He?
Strong and Healthy.
“Hood's Sarsaparilla has boon of great bene
fit to our little glrl.and also to myself and hus¬
band. AVben she was 3 years old Mabel was
seized with stomach trouble, like cramps or In
Bammation. I was taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla
for my blond, and as the doctor’s prescription
did not help her, t occasionally gave her a lit
tic of my own medicine. I soon realized that
Hood’s sarsaparilla was
Doing Her Good,
so gave it to her regularly. It has helped her
wonderfully, entirely curing her stomach
trouble, and making her strong and healthy.
Our friends say she is the picture of health.
Myself and husband were both troubled with
Hood’s^Cures
malaria, and Hood’s Sarsaparilla built Us up
aud keeps us healthy and free from sickness.
