WHEN YOU PEEL SHAKY IY MOT THY t)Me«n Text* “Absalom's Rebtfl. 1««,M II hn«d XT., 1-152* tiolden Text i Kxoflae xx., 12—Commentary. _i 1. "And It eeme to pea* after tUa thk Atolom prepared him chariots and harsei and fifty men to ran before him." Absalofc waJ , ua Datld, born in Hebron. and hta mother was Maaoah, daughter ol the king of Geshur (II Bam. iCX 8). Absalom signifies "father of peaoe," but hta life would rather suggest one who was ol hla father the devil (John vlll.. 44). Because of the murder of hta brother Amnon, David’s firstborn, he fled to the king of Geehur and was there three years, but through the _ of the wise woman of Tekoa, em ployed by Joab, heoame baok to Jerusalem and dwelt two yearn without reconciliation to hta father, after whiob, through Joab’a intercession, the king became reconciled:to him. saw him and kissed him (ohapter xlv.f 28, 88). 2. "And Absalom rose up early and stood beside the way of the gate." The expree , aion "rose up early" signifies great earnest ness and is used many times in Jeremiah i concerning God’s unwearied earnestness in I urging His people to repeat and turn to [ Him. In Isa. 11, It is used, as here, con cerning the earnestness of the wioked, for | here we see Absalom in the place of public { gatherings, kindly greeting the people who , came to the king to have their wrongs right ed and Beeklng to turn their hearts from his father to himself. The self-seeking of , the natural heart is often seen in those who seek to advance themselves, no matter who is overthrown, but when this is seen in a son against his own father then the devil is surely doing special work. 8, 4. "Absalom said, moreover, Oh, that I were made judge in the land." He speaks of the justice that he would show it he were made judge in the land, but it should not require firuoh penetration to see that a man dly who would treat his own father as unjustl as he was now doing would not be likely to do justly by any one unless it might happen to serve his own ends. I heard only this week of a Senator who said that no poli tician would take hold of a matter without considering how it might affect his own po litical prospeots. It is the world's way to live unto oneself; it is only by the Spirit of .. . ilo ~ God that we can deny self and live unto God. 6, 6. "So Absalom stele the hearts Of the men of Israel.” Th6re was not a finer look ing man in all Israel (ohapter xiv., 25). but perhaps not one with a blacker heart. "Fa vor is deceitful and beauty is vath,” but “a meek and quiet spirit is in the sight of God ot great price." and it is the heart, not the outward appearance, that God looks upon (Pxov. xxxi., 80; I Pet. ill., 4; I Sam. xv!., 7). When the king kissed Absalom (xiv.. 83), it was the loving kiss of a heartbroken father welcoming his erring son, but these kisses of Absalom were more like the kiss of Judas when he betrayed his Master, for every one was a stab ax his father’s heart. .There are those, even in this day, both in the church and out of it, who “by good words and fair speeches dooetve the hearts of the simple.” ' 7. “Let me go and pay my vow. which I have Yowed unto the Lora in Hebron." The margin of the B. Y. says probably after four years, not forty years. But what allar he was and how desperately wioked; there was murder in his heart, and that against his own father, yet he seeks to hide it under a pretense of paying a vow unto the Lord, while all hta vows must have been to the Sevil rather than to the Lord. Hebron was is birthplaoe, but it was also the place where the bodies of Abraham, Isaao and Jacob lay-Wiried, and that hta wioked heart could SDeak of Hebron, which signifies fel lowship and oarries us back to faithful Caleb, who followed the Lord fully, shows how hardened in sin he had become. 8. "If the Lord shall bring me again in deed to Jerusalem, then 1 will serve the Lord." This, he said, was the vow whioh he had made to the Lord while in hta banish ment at Geshur. If David believed hta son, as he seems to have done, how comforted be must have been by this evidence of hta son’s repentance. How little he though that with Such words from his son's lips the father of lies was in his heart. : 9. "And the king said unto him, Go in peace." Believing him to be sincere he gives him a father's blessing, but there was no peace in that foul heart oovered by so fair an exterior, for "There is no peaoe, saith the ^ord to the wioked” (Isa. lvii., 21). Peace was within hta reach, as it is within the reach of every one who has ever heard of the Prince of Peace, but it can only become the possession of those who are truly penitent and and sincerely submit to Htm as their Saviour and Lord. "The work of righteousness shall be peaoe, and the effeot forever" (Isa. y Hebn uietness and assurance , 17). "So he arose and went to Hebron.” ; 10. "Absalom reigneth in Hebron." With profession of devotion to God on htslips and his father’s blessing sounding in his eats he goes forth to carry out hta devilish designs against hta father. The proclamation wjbioh he caused to be sounded forth was equal to hjs saying, "I hereby rebel against my father and drive him from his throne." David so understood it, tor hesaid unto all his servants, "Arise and let us flee, for we shall not else escape from Absalom," and the servants said, "Behold thy servants are ready to do whatsoever my lord the king ■ .. ‘ 1 • - Shall appoint" (verses 14. 15). Contrast the conduct of the king’s son with that of hta servants and of Ittai the Gittite in verses 19 to 21. 1L "They went in their simplicity, and they knew not anything." This is Written of the 200 men out of Jerusalem who wtnt with Absalom. If we would follow Jesus in this spirit, simply trusting, not knowing nor get mrougn us, out to ioiiow a leader use Absalom thus blindly is the way to ruin. There are many nowadays who rebel against the word of God and yet have many follow era who know nothfhg of God, but wbatthey hear from others. They are too simple. 12. "The people increased continually with Absalom.” How thoughtlessly the crowd will follow a popular leader. Jlow multitudes turn away from the God of Truth and His dear Son to listen to an Ingersoll. In all directions and on all sides an increas ing multitude is following the one whom Absalom followed and who would love to de stroy Jesus Christ, the King of kings, and Hta followers. But the Lamb shall over come and they who are with Him are called and ohosen and faithful. David returned in due time, and so will thd Lord Jesus.

Originating Among ti e Phoenicia**, Tattooing Spread to ite'vage Tribes, , What is the origin of tattooing? Re ligion, which has so much power over >eople and which proved so obstinats u preserving ancient c astoms, has cer a Inly contributed to maintain it among he more barbarous pait of our popula ion. We see a quasi official proof of 11 at Loreto. Those -yho cultivate a devotion for a saint tmtieve that by jengraving bis image on their flesh they jtvill give him a proof, a clear testimony, bf their love. We knot/ that the Phoe nicians marked A sign of their divinity jon the foreheads (Ewald, Jndaisohen lAltherthuin, 1(1.). In t ie Marshall Isl ands they have to ask the permission of the gods to tattoo hemselves, and the priests alone in Ne w Zealand per [form the office of tattcolng (Scherzer), I.ubbock adds to this that a woman who does not wear a tittoo mark can not enjoy eternal felicity. The women’ of Britain tattooed themselves In obo jdience to religion (Plin;r 33). I 1 The Beoond cause is the spirit of Imitation. A Lombard soldier answer ed me laugliingiy^onc -lay when I ral hied him on his having spent a small Isum to spoil his arm. “See, monsieur, we are like sheep, und when one of us dees anything wo jail imitate him at once, even^# we risk uoing ourselves harm.” ; Love of distinction also has its influ ence. A thief of the most incorrigible Sort who had si* brothers tattooed like himself, Implored me, although he was half covered with tbi oddest tattoo marks to find him a professional tat tooer to -complete what might be styled the embroidery of his skin. “When the tattooing is Tery curious and spreads all over the body,” he 1 old me, “it is to other thieves like the black coat of society with decorations—the more we are tattooed the more we esteem one another; the more a person is tattooed the more influence he has over his com panions. On the contrary, one who is not tattooed has no Influence. He is regarded simply as a good fellow and is not esteemed by the < ompany.”—Pop ular Science Monthly. Attention I!!
