Ib h Vdkce V COWPER'S lines come to mind aa we study the dramatic re turn of the Jews from their exile in Babylon to Jerusalem in the first year of the reign of Cyrus, king of Persia, 536 B. C: "God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform; H plants his footsteps in the sea And rides upon the storm." And yet it is not altogether strange, for If ' you will turn to Jeremiah 29:4-14, you will find a prophecy given 80 years be fore the event that K this very thing I would occur. V JI1 There were two r' other deportations of the Jews from Babylon, prior to the incident in our lesson the return led by Daniel, 808 B. C and the one led by Eze klel. 697 B. C. PROCLAMATION OF CYRU8 ' I 'HE proclamation of Cyrus, 1 Ezra 1:1-5, records the happy word to the Jews that they would not only return, but that the temple would be rebuilt Cyrus called upon all the people who would to make offerings by which the temple might be restored. Cyrus was act ing under divine impulse in this gracious and generous proclama tion. "The Lord God of heaven hath given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he hath charged me to build him an house at Jerusalem, which la in Judah," said Cyrus, Ezra 1:2. Fifty thousand Jews, their, hearts rejoicing at the thought of return ing to the land of their fathers, set out on the trek of 608 miles, laden with gifts from the Per-, slana for the restoration of the temple in Jerusalem. They could now sing the song of the Lord, and no longer did their harps hang silently on the willow trees. THE DECREE OF ABTAXEBXES 'TEQB fourth chapter of Ezra 1 brings us to the halting of the work on the temple, after they had raised the magnificent sum of ap proximately $400,000, and had laid the foundatipn for the temple, with Imposing ceremonies. This delay was occasioned by the Jealousy o the Samaritans, who went to - Artaxerxes. through em ployed counsel, and convinced him that it would be dangerous to al low these Jews to rebuild Jerusa lem. At first, the Samaritans pro posed that the Jews let them use fiie temple in Joint worship, but the Jews feared the Samaritans and refused their offer. It was then mat the Samaritans effected the delay In the building of the temple by the space of 14 years. Mean while, the Jews went forward with the building of their homes and re establishing themselves and their civilization In Jerusalem. STICKINa TO ONE'S PURPOSE WE come now to the part Bag gal played in summoning the Jews to their duty and obligation to God to restore the temple. It was in the second year of the reign of Darius that Haggai received the word of the Lord. "Is It time tor you, O ye, to dwell in your ceiled houses, and this house lie waste? Now therefore thus saltb the Lord of hosts, Consider your ways." It was enough The people rallied to - the call of Haggai, and the temple was completed. Men can always do what they ought to do. If they will to do it - GOD'S PURPOSE FULFILLED rpHE message of Haggai was I heeded. The temple was com pleted, Ezra 6:13-18, and. God's purpose was fulfilled. Read Psalm 126. This brings us to the golden text: "No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the Kingdom of God," Luke 0:62. When once the returned exiles felt the iron of God's purpose surging through their veins, they quitted themselves like men, and God's power was everywhere mani fest So may it ever be with us!
