IC The Long Strusgle With Idolatry.
1. A Synopsis of the Book of Judges.
This book covers the period from
the conquest of Canaan and the death
of Joshua to the judgeship of Samuel.
The teacher should master the con
tent of the book in order to teach this
lesson, especially chapters 2-16.
L The Sin of the People (Judg. 2:6
13). While Joshua and the elders of
his generation lived, the people in
some measure remained faithful to
God, In obedience to His Word, but
the very next generation went Into
apostasy. Their degradation may be
accounted for as follows;
(1) Failure to drive out the Canaan
Ites from their midst. They hd
gained the victory ever them, but
failed to exterminate them. Their mis
taken tolerance became their undoing.
(2) Their amalgamation with - the
Canaanltea. They Intermarried with
the heathen. Tolerance of the enemy
la closely ' followed by union there
with and quick disaster comes in the
wake of such union. . 1
(8) Idolatry. Intermarriage with
the heathen was soon followed by the
worship of the heathen's gods. Ood'a
people lose power over the world as
soon ss they make alliance with It. .
2. God's Judgment for Their Sins
(Judg.. 2:14, 15). He delivered them
Into the hsnds of "the spoiler that
spoiled them."
3. The Repentance of the People
(Judg. 8:0). Under the yoke of their
enemies they learned their folly and
cried unto the Lord for deliverance.
. 4. God's Deliverance at the'Hand of
the Judges (Judg. 3:16-18). Ood heard
their cries and by raising up military
chieftains as Judges he saved them out
of the bands of their enemies. A
repetition of sin, oppression by tho
enemy, repentance on the part of the
people and God's deliverance, consti
tute the story of the book of Judges. v.
i II. The Victory of Gideon's Band
(Judg. 7:1-23). . ,
Gideon was the most outstanding ef
the Judges. He came from an ob
scure and uninfluentlal family (6:15).
Before going forward he wishes to be
doubly sure (6:36-40). - When once he
was convinced. of duty, he was coura
geous and enthusiastic. .This Is char
acteristic of all trulygreat men.
1. The Oppoalng Army (v. 1). Gid
eon and his . army rose early on that
eventful day and they came by the
spring of Harod. Over against them
was the host of the MIdlanites in bat
tle array.
2. The Sifting of Gideon's Army
tw. 2-8). At Gideon's call 82,000 men
responded, ready for the struggle. This
seemed a small army to go against the
11 ldlanlte ' army, 135,00 strong, but
God said this was too many, lest they
be led to boasting sad self-confidence,
The real danger was not in their small
army but In their pride. All that were
afraid were allowed to go back, leav
ing only 10,000. Still this waa too
many. When God was through sifting,
nly 800 remained. -
8. God Gives Encouragement to
Gideon. He bade Gideon go down. to
the Mldlanite camp, where he would
hear something that would cheer his
heart and strengthen his hand.. When
he came near he heard a man telling
a dream, which was that of. a barley
cake tumbling Into the camp and smit
ing it He also heard the interpreta
tion given to, the dream which made
Gideon to be that cake.
4. God Gives Victory to Gideon (vr.
16-23). His attack was unique. The
whole matter was of faith (Heb. 11 :32).
Gideon with his 300 men formed into
three companies, each man being pro
vided with a trumpet and a lamp con
cealed within a pitcher, Thus armed
they surrounded the camp of the MI
dlanites. They were all Instructed to
keep their eyes upon their leader and
Jmltate him.. 'At. the proper moment
they blew their trumpets and broke
their pitchers, giving opportunity for
the lamps to shine out,' This awful
crash of broken pitchers, following the
sound of trumpets, accompanied by the
thouf "The sword of the Lord and of
Gideon," threw the MIdlanites into a
panic, causing them to fight among
themselves. -One hundred and twenty
thouaand were thus slain, leaving hut
15,000 of that mighty army (Judg.
8:10). ,

The curing and re-milling are two
of the reasons successful farmers say

Don't buy fertilizer in a hit or
