2ChroniclesS:7-14:
7:12-14)
By MARION SWINDELL
It is told that a visitor
from a foreign country
made this comment
about American when
he returned home. "The
saddest thing about the :
United States ? is
everyone is trying to run
away from them
selves." It does appear that in
our search for hap
piness, adventure and
pleasure we are hi a
constant race. To find it
we run, and many
times we appear to be
running away from
ourselves.
You can't be against
modernization, it has
made life much more
enjoyable. You can take
time, though, to pause
and "catch up."
The happiest people
are those who take time.
Time to enjoy time to
plant a garden, time to
watch it grow. You are
then waiting and you
can't run away from
yourself if you wait.
OUR THOUGHT TO
REMEMBER: ,The
greatest rewards come
to those who wait.

'M ai "WH
This Week 's
- Anselm spoke this wise
counsel concerning wor
ship: s "Come now, little
man.' flee for awhile from
your tasks, hide yourself for
a little space from the
turmoil of your thoughts.
For a little while give your
time to Godj and rest in him
for a little."
Another has wisely noted:
"I have never known a man,
who habitually and on
principle absented himself -from
the public worship of
God, who did not sooner or
later bring sorrow upon
himself or his family."
Bellows.
Our lesson for today
enables us to see something
of God's concern about
man's worship.
God's people wandered in
the wilderness for four
decades without a per
manant home or permanant
place of worship. But they
were not without a place of
worship. God had given
detailed instructions to
- Moses concerning the
construction of the taber
nacle. It could be moved
from place to place. Among
the furnishings of the
tabernacle was the ark of
the covenant . This item was
also constructed by divine
instructions. It, above all
other items, symbolized the
presence of God.
At the conclusion of the
building of the Temple by
Solomon this ark was
brought to the Temple and
placed in the Holy of Holies.
The Placing of the Ark,
2 C'hrinicles 5:7-10
According to I Kings 6:37
38, it took seven years to
build this first Temple on
Mount Moriah. It was to be
the site of other temples
when this and the next ones
would be destroyed. It is
today the location of a
Moslem Mosque.
According to the
Chronicler the priests
brought the ark of the
covenant of the Lord to its

place, the inner sanctuary of
the Temple.This would be in
the most holy place or the
Holy of Holies. The words
"to the oracle of the house"
is a reference to the inner
sanctuary. The ark was
place beneath the wings of
the cheribum. The cheribum
represented angelic beings.
They were symbolic of the
presence of God.
Verse 0 states that the
poles (used to carry the ark)
were so long the ends of them
could be seen from the holy
place. This seems to mean
that they pressed against
the curtain or veil in such a
way that they could not be
seen from the outside but
their imprint could.
The writer of this account
says there was nothing in
the ark except the two tables
of the commandments
which Moses had put there
at Horeb.
The following verses
present a marvelous sight
the processional of the
priests.
The Processional of
the Priest, 5: 11-14
This was an important
occasion. All of the Priests
were on hand to participate.
Those who were on duty and
those who were not were
there for this occasion. They
had made preparation for
this experience by setting
themselves apart for the
Lord's service. The
Levitical choirs were
arrayed in fine linen and
equipped with various in
struments to make music.
They had practiced until
their music was in unison.
What does this passage
say about God's concern for
worship? Are we sometimes
critical of fine choir robes
for our choirs? Are we as
members of the choir at time
reluctant to give the needed
time to practice? Am I one
of those who likes loud,
cheerful, speedy singing
whether in unison or not?
Does inspired music play a

Th Perquimtm Weekly, Hertford, N.O, Thunday, October 10, 1974-Fege a
part on bringing about a
realization of God's
presence in our worship
services? The climax of that
occasion was that God's
house was filled with His
presence. How wonderful if
today the minister found it
difficult to stand in the
House of the Lord because
the glory of the Lord so filled
the house!
Solomon has made his
petition to God for the
people. The next verses give
us the Promise of the Lord.
The Promis of The Lord,
2 Chronicles 7 -.12-14
In the night the Lord made
His appearance to Solomon
the king. God has heard
Solomon's prayer. God has
answered. He assured the
king that He has chosen this
place and this house as a
house of sacrifice. Is this not
a noted needed today in our
worship of God? Our
religion of Christianity was
born in blood. Dare we to
make our houses of worship
mere instruments whereby
we salve our consciences?
Some use God's house to
catch up on sleep they lost
the night before!
Yes, God promises that if
His people will humble
themselves His people
upon whom His name has
been called (correct
meaning here) ; if they pray
and seek His face and turn
from their wicked ways, He
will hear from heaven and
forgive. God's people are
promised forgiveness for
their sins.
They are promised
healing for their land. Does
this suggest that our
greatest need in America
today is to acknowledge our
need of God, pray to Him,
seek His presence, turn
from our wicked ways and
then believe that God will
intervene!

BIBLE QUESTION
OF THE WEEK:
"How large was
Solomon's Temple?"
ANSWER:
2 Chronicles 3 : 3 give these
measurements: "the length,
in cubits of the old standard,
was sixty cubits, and the
breadth twenty cubits." The
old standard was about 21
inches, This would mean it
was 105 feet by 35 feet.
