Lesson IX.—Third Quarter, For
Aug. 31, 1913.
THE. INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
T«xt of th« Lesson, Ex. xix, 1-6; 13-
21—Memory Verses, 5, 6 —Golden
Text, Heb. xii # 28—Commentary Pre
pared by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
When the Lord apoke to Moses out
of the burning bush at Horeb, tin
mountain of G«kl, as be krpt tbe tlock
of Jethro. hi* rather iu law. tie sai;i
to biii), "Wheu tb«»u hast brought fwtlr
the people out of E;o pt yo slum s rr\ t
God upon this mountain" (Ex. iii. 1. 2
12). Now. after about three mouths
Israel is encamped at the mount oi
Ood, and Jethro came to him, bringing
Zipporah. hts wife, and his two sons
Gershom and Eliexer. the former
nifyiug "a struuger there" and tbf
latter "my God Is our help" (uiargii.'
of xviii, 3. 4). As they commuueii to
getber of ail that God had doue foi
Israel. Jethro said: "Now 1 know thai
the Lord is greater than aIT gods, ami
he offered a burnt offering and sacri
(ices to God. Then Aarou came ami
all the elders of Israel to eat brentl*
with Moses' father-in-law before God'
ixviii. 7-12).
As Jcthro saw Most v s spending the
*-holt» day from morning until eveiiiuv
iistening to- the people's affairs, lit
said, "Thou wilt surely wear away
• * * this thing Is too heavy for
thee; thou art not able to perform it
thyself alone" (xviii. IS*. Aud he sup
nested a better way. subject to GodV
approval, which Moses accepted'(xviii
13-27». Having reached Slnal and
Horeb in the third mouth. Moses went
up unto God. and the Lord gave hiiu
a message for Israel, which has also H
most importnnt heart word for every
t»ellever. and lirst. "1 bare you ou
eagles' wings." With this we must
compare Deut. xxxii. 11. 12, aud note
the process of teaching young eagle*
to fiy. Then in Isa. xl, 81. the secret
of flying; theu In Luke xvli, 37. the
eagle sahits caught up to meet tlie
Lord In the air. The words "brought
you unto myself" (Kx. six, 4) give the
key to ail His dealings with us. for
their iuteutinn is eveu. and more and
more, to wean us from all people and
circumstances, unto Himself that we
may fiud our home iii God aud our all
in Himself, living together with Him
until some day we shall be ever with
the Lord 1 Thess. v. 10; iv. 17).
The words "a peculiar treasure unto
me above all people" (5i Indicate a
high calling and privilege which Israel
did not begin to appreciate, nor do we.
See the repetition of the wonderful
words ID Deut vii. 6. and the full
realization in Mai. iii, 17. and margin,
for only In the klngdoiu at His com
ing again shall It be fully seen. Note
the transfer of some ptiviieges to the
church In Matt xxi. 43: Tit. ii. 14; 1
Pet ii. 9. and may He make us all
willing to be set apart wholly for Him
self (PB. Iv, 3>. We are too apt to say
thoughtlessly ami nastily, as Israel
did. "All that the Lord hath spoken we
will do" (verse 8 and chapter xxiv.
3, 7). or aft Peter said, not knowing
himself or his weakness. "Lord. I am
ready to go with Thee, both into pris
on and to death" (Luke xxii, 33). We
are slow to learu that iu us—that is, in
our flesh—there dwelleth no good thing
and that we are not sufficient of our
selves to think anything as of our
selves (Rom. vii. 13: II Cor. iii. 5).
The rest of onr lesson is a third day
morning story (verses 16-211. but a
story of thunder and lightning and fire
and smoke and earthquake and a voice
that made the people tremble and say
to Moses. "Speak thou with us and we
will bear, but let uot God speak with
us lest we die" (xx. 19». to which
Moses replied. "Fear not. for God Is
come to prove you and that His fear
may be before your faces, that ye sin
not" (xx, 20). Ten times It is written
that God spoke to them out of the
midst of the fire (Deut. iv, 12, 15, 33,
36; v. 4, 22, 24. 26; Ix. 10; x. 4). and it
is also written, "Our God is a'consum
ing Are" (Deut Iv. 4). We shall un
derstand this more fully in our next
two lessons concerning the words that
were spoken out of the midst of the
Are, and we shall see the contrast be
tween God speaking out of the midst
of the lire and from off the mercy
seat between the cherubim.
God speaking through Moses and
not directly to the people is like speak
ing to us in Christ who is our mercy
neat The saying In Ex. xx. 21. that
Moses drew near unto the thick dark
ness where G»d was seems at first
sight a little perplexing, for it is writ
ten that "God is light, and in Him is
no darkness at all" (I John 1. s>, but
It is the human and the divine side.
If we would walk in the light we
must see things from God s standpoint,
uot from ours. How often we are re
minded of the greatness of Moses as a
prophet whom the knew face to
face (Deut xxxiv, 10). but we turn
from Moses to the prophet like unto
him who was God manifest in the
flesh, the word made flesh, dwelling
among us, who could say as no onr
else would dare to. "He that hath seen
Me hath seen the Father" (Deut. sviii.
18: I Tim. ill. 10: John i. 14; xiv. 9).
The Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord
God of the holy prophets. Those who
do not hear the voice of God in Christ
may have to experience something like
the voices and thunderings and light
nings and earthquake of Rev. xvi.
17-19. The wrath of the Lamb will bf
a fearful reality to all who are not re
deemed bv the blood of the Lamb
