LESSON TEXT-Nehemlah 8:1, 4. 6, 6,
8-12. Read entire chapter.
GOLDEN TEXT-Thy word is a lamp
unto my feet, and a light unto my path.—
Ps. 11»;106.
The first day of the seventh month
(8:2) was about October 444 B. O.
Seven days feast (vv. 15-18) was the
feast of the Tabernacles beginning
the ir»th of the seventh month (Octo
ber) and continuing for seven or
eight days (Lev. 23). Nehemiah was
the governor; Ezra the scribe, chief
priest; and Artaxerxes, king of Per
sia. ruler over 1’alestlne. It would he
interesting to look up the sud<len in
terjection of Ezra’s name into this
discourse; also the special reasons for
teaching the Bible. There is in this
chapter a record of a full w«*ek and
of the tially events of that week.
I. The Preparation. Oo back to
verse 70 of the preceding chapter, and
you will find that the temple liad Just
been receiving some large gifts. The
task of finishing the wall was also
completed, all of which gives point to
verse one, where It says that the peo
ple gathered themselves together as
one man. This was an ancient open-
air meeting, one we d<» well to study.
The people requested Ezra to “bring
the book,” It needed no catch penny
operations to draw the crowd togeth
er. The writer of Nehemiah calls the
book “the law which the Lord hath
commanded tmto M'»ses.” (See v. 1
cf. V. 14.) This, of course, would in
clude Leviticus. Numbers, and Deuter
onomy, an Indication as to the Mosaic
authorship of the Pentateuch, which is
in line with the statement that Jesus
Christ made that it w».^ God who had
written it as he had commande<l
Moses. It was not a in<*b; there was
orgunlzntlon and tniulpment. (See v.
•S and 4.) The Bible was also read 80
that the people ccmUI understand it
(v. 2) ; certainly son'ethlng that is In
demand in onr present day. Ezra
opened the fiook In the sight of all the
people, for he stood on an elevation
above them (v. 5) and read “dis
tinctly.”
II. The Reading of the Word. They
rend the book, not from some com
mentary or quarterly, though these
have value in their place. The read
ing began with reverence. Reverence
for but not a worship of the boctk.
The Bible is not a fetish or a charm
against sicknt'ss or accident. The
verse “caused the people to under
stand the law," (v. 7) probably means
that is was translated into the ver
nacular, the lanpUHge of Th«> common
people. While (lOd's \vor»l is a plain
book and easy to read, n«>vertheless
men of spiritual understanding are
needed to “rightly divide" it unto the
people (v. 7). However, t’ne great in-
ter])reter of the Fiible given by the Fa
ther is the Holy Spirit himself (Jolui
I John 2:‘20-27). JThls
method of beginning the study of the
word and its cf*ntinnnnce as presented
in these verses is a good suggesti<.n
for modern Sunday school workers.
III. The Hearing of the Word. (vv.
0-17). As Ezra and Nehemiah and
their associates and Levites tatight
the people, there was a live-fold result.
First: There was conviction and
iiioiirmnp. The word of (lod always
convicts of sin, hut tlu* pe.iple w»>re
told not to mourn over the past, nor
were they to weep, for all the people
wept 9). Wh«‘n men hear the
■words of the law there will be con
viction of sin. (See Kph. ():7; Heli,
4:12.) W’eeping may not. however, be
conviction (2 Cor. 7:'iO). Weeping
weakens, but that wa.s no* designed,
rather the exhilaration of joy. More
over. they were to s<‘ek the refresh
ment of food and drink. Indeed, the
Joy of the Lord was to be their
strength (v. 10). “And there was very
great gladness” (v. 17). In verse 11
we are told that the Levites exhorted
the people to hold their peace, that
the day was holy and that they should
be grieved. To this the people re
sponded (v. 12), and made great mirth,
because they had understood the dec
laration of the word of the Lord. No
tice that Joy and gladness came after
obedience, also that Nehemiah, the
governor, had a part in the teaching.
It Is a great thing for any people when
their civil rulers are genuine. Intelli
gent, and spiritual leaders. The peo-
i«le w’ere Instructed to show their grati
tude as well as their piety by remem
bering “those for whom nothing had
been prepared” (v. 10). The fourth
result was peace (v. 11)—the peace
ctf right relation with God (Rom. 6:
1; Phil. 4:7).
Fifth Result: Service.
Mourning can very easily be con
tinued too long, and, therefore, it was
necessary to employ the emotion of
mirth and the exercise of work that
the people might enter into this peace.
The fifth result, therefore, was serv
ice (v. 12). Notice that their thanks
giving portions and their service w«re
based upon an intelligent knowledge
ef God’s word. If there Is anythirig
that pre.sent-»lay social service needs,
it Is th? illuiuinatioa which comes
from a knowledge of God’s w’ord. Last
of all, worship (vv. 13-18). Worship
is a coniDound of “w’orth” and “ship.”
Man and Lion Die In Battle.
Lion and man, lying alongside one
another b<»th terribly nmuled and both
quite dead, tohl a silent story of a
titanic struggle “somewhere In Afri
ca.” The dec«*ased was Tn»oper Nor
man Sinclair, a native of Prestonkirk,
and wiiilo on military duty his body
w’as found lying beside the king of
beasts which he had kill(‘d. A remark
able tribute to hi.s nieniory has l»een
paid through the devotion of native
troops. Tliere has now i>een placed
<tn his remote grave tin iron cros.s,
which weighed two hundredweight,
bearing his nnnie, the <iate of his death
and the words, “Died for King an«l
Kmpire.” For the lust 300 miles the
cross was borne by carriers over a
prnctlcHliy imknown coimtry.

Defeat Backache and Kidney
Trouble With Anuric
The Reason.
I Bishop (.’olfelt of Troy said at a din
ner recently:
Many people In this section have suffer
ed from rheumatism and kidney trouble
and have found that Anuric was the most
successful remedy to overcome these
painful and dangerous aliments.
The lucky people are those who have
suffered, but who are now well because
they heeded nature’s warning signal in
time to correct their trouble with that
wonderful new discovery of Dr. Pierce’s
called “An-u-rlc” (double strength). You
Bhould promptly heed these warnings,
some of which are dizzy spells, backache,
irregularity of the urine or the painful
i twinges of rheumatism, sciatica or lum-
' bago. To delay may make possible the
1 dangerous forms of kidney disease, such
' as stone in the bladder. If you want
' quick relief buy Anuric now (60c a pack-
Bffe)—or send Dr. Pierce 10c for trial pkg.
i This will prove that "Anuric” eliminates
j uric acid as hot water melts sugar.
