International SDNMfSfflOOl LESSON (By BJ. O. SELLERS, Director of Even ing Department The Moody Illblo In stitute of Chicago.) LESSON FOR APRIL 6 JACOB AND ESAU. LESSON TKXT-On. 27:22-34. GOLUKN TKXT "Jehovah 1b a Ood of Judgment: hli'ssrd are all they that wait for him." Isa. 30:18. Jacob is one of the great figures presented to us in the book of Gene els. His birth and purchase of the birthright are recorded In Chapter 25, and In chapter 27 we have presented his great sin. It is absolutely necessary to read carefully all of this chapter before we can properly present this lesson. Moses did not record Jacob's decep tion because he commended it, but rather as a warning to all who read and ponder thereon. The Bible spreads before us the sins of God's people as well as their virtues, which ought to be a comforting thought to us all, who are sinners "saved by grace." I. The Deceit, w. 22-29. Lying, du plicity, profanity, and compounded felony, are presented in the prelimi nary verses to that section selected for our study. Jacob's conscience re belled (v. 12), yet he gladly listened to the voice of his unwise mother who thought she knew best how to circumvent God's will; see ch. 25 :23, 25, 28. ThifT mother's foolish ambi tion and teaching had developed a self-seeking, deceitful son. By nature Jacob was unlovely and the greatest lesson we can learn from his life is that he, a 'cheater," should by the grace of God be transformed into "Israel," a prince, he that hath power with God. A Rough Man. We first have presented the tem peramental difference between these two brothers, then the story of the birthright, and lastly the stolen bless ing. Esau was a rough man of the chase, cunning, clever and skillful as a hunter. Jacob was a plain man, vis., one who inclined to the conven tionalities. He loved a settled, quiet home life, for he "dwelt in tents." Again when we consider the episode of the birthright we have set before us another illustration of the great contrast of these brothers. We do not value birthrights as do the Orien tals, and further, we must remember this is the story of God's develop ment of a chosen race. Esau, mas tered by his appetite, governed by elfish instincts, gladly and flippantly spurns "despised" his right. He denied his responsibility to the fu ture of that race of whom Abraham was the first, and virtually said that nothing was of value that did not serve this present lifetime. Jacob, on the other hand, estimated this birthright at its supreme value, as of the highest Importance. From Bad Stock. Subject as Jacob was to the rule of a seeking, scheming, mother, yet we must remember that she, too, was actuated by the same high estimate of the value and the Importance of the birthright. Her mean manner of seeking to accomplish her purpose did not succeed, but, In fact, delayed the desired end for Jacob had to fly for his life. I.rft us look at Rebekah. She came from the same stock as Laban, who was a fraud, a cheat, and a liar. She taught her son to follow those same methods and had to smart for It, for she lost his companionship through long years, and never saw him again. Is It ever right to do wrong? God's word tells us no, see Rom. 3:8. Rebekah waB more con cerned with her partiality than with the purposes of God (Ch. 25 : 28) I Jacob's conscience was aroused as we Bee from v. 12, though it was prob- j biy not so much fear of the error of , the act, but rather fear of being ! caught. God would in his way and In his own time have given Jacob the prom- ised blessing without the aid of his , deceit. As It was Jacob engendered j his brother's hatred, was separated from his home and endured multiplied suffering. II. Esau's Sorrow, vv. 30-34. Esau had sold his birthright and sought to regain it. Now he Is too late to se cure the blessing that should accom pany his birthright. The brothers bartered for the birthright. One brother secured the blessing and with It, banishment The other brother lost both birthright and blessing and gave vent to a bitter cry. fHeb 12: ; 17.) ' Esau was himself to blsme. What a wrecked home partiality and deceit brought forth. Rebekah's anticipation (v. 45) was never ful filled and her conduct with that of Jacob well deserves the censure and the punishment Inflicted j Because the Bible records no word of censure some have asserted that Ood approved of Jacob's ceurse. Even a casual reading of his life, of Its de- I lava. Its disappointments and its mis- I fortunes, reveals God's vindication of ' the moral law and that retribution follows wrong. As much as we sym pathise with Esau we are compelled to acknowledge that Jacob was the ' fitter nan of the two. He was tena cious, self-reliant, constant In his af fections, devoted to the covenant of Ood and sensitive to spiritual influ- . "ftV. Kaaa was Impulsive and shal- BUSINESS LOCALS.

From the Farm Journal, Influence is the power we ex ert over others by our words, tho'ts, actions and lives. It Is a still, a permeating, an attrac tive and a most astonishin"; thing. It works in ways that cannot be explained nor inter preted. We neveree nor hear it; yet, whether we are aware or unaware of it, we exert it. No one can speak or think or act, no one can live, without in lluencing others. We may all sometimes be unconscious of this important fact - that what wo do or say or' think affects others. This influence not on ly lives forever, but it keeps on growing as long as it lives. The intiuence which you start in life today may be very small now, but it will grow deeper and wider and stronger with every passing hour, and bring joy or sorrow as -it rolls onward in its cou rse. For Burn, Bruiaea and Sores. The quickest and surest cure for burns, bruises, boils, sores, inflamma tion and all skin diseases is Bucklen's Arnica Salve. In four days it cured L. H.
