*The value o this ev dence is o course only that which be on s to tradition still it should be remembered th t this tradition is a writ ten one, dating away back to near the times of the Old Testament. Moreover, it could be shown that this same kind of written tradition reaches back through the later books of the Old Testament, at least in a negative way, even to the time of E ra who surely ought to know whether as the critics say, the story of the Tabernacle as a fact of history was invented n hi own day and generation But nasmuch as Ezra does not tell us anything about that matter, it stands to reason that as has since been report d by t is lon line of tradition most of it being of a positive nature, no such inven ion ever took place, but th t this story is simply a narrat ve of actual fact At all events, as said in the te t, it is far more likely that this old and long continued t adi ion is correct in what it asserts, than is any of the de ials of the highe critics.

*It is claimed by the critics that all the h storical books of the Old Testament underwent a revisio during the e ile ; and according to the best authorities, Chronicles as composed shortly after the Persian rule, or about 330 B. C. Selecting, then, about the middle of th xilic period (5 to 44 B. C.) as the date for the n revision of Kings and Samuel, this would make the composition of Chronic es fall near 200 years after that revision. But of course Samuel and Kings were originally composed, or compiled, at a much e rlier date ; the former appearing probably about 9 0, and the latter about 60 B. C.

TEST MONY OF SAMUEL
*It is cla med by the critics, and specially by Wellhausen hat during the e ile the Jewish notions respecting the past of their national and tribal histo y underwent a radical change, so much so that nearly all the religious features of that h story were conceived of as having been very di erent from what they really were. Or in other words the Jewish writers of the exilic period were, so the critics tell us, accustomed to pro ect religious and priestly matters belonging to their history in a much later period away back to the earliest times. Conse quently the general ideas of the temple and of the tem le service were thus pro ected bac even to the days of Moses and in this way, it is explained, the notion of a Mosaic Tabernacle with an elab rate itual isti s rvice came into being. But r ally there is no vidence in all the Old Testament writings, or at all events no evidence that the Jews new any h about that su h a change ever too place. Hence the cri ics are decidedly wrong when they represent that the uthor o f Chronicles w a only in uenced b y the spirit o f h i s age whe he under too to isrepresent, as it is claimed he did, numerou m tte s con nected with the pas history of this people. The truth is that the Chronicler was either a base falsi er, or what he tells us in his history must be receiv d as genuine facts.

*The fact of the higher c itic theory being as yet in an unproven state might be urged as one impor an consideration in favor of the Tabernacle s real existence ; and especially could such an argument be leg timately made inasmuch as the proof of the correctness of that theory does not all come from an assu ed on e is ence of the Mosaic stru ture. But sin e an argument of hat kind woul be to some tent at least "reasoning in a circle we do not make use of it.
Tabernacle in the Wilderness
*Notices of such smaller tent seem to be made in Ex 33 :7-1 1 Num. 1 1 : 16 ; 12 :4, 5, and Deut. 3 1 : 14, 1 and from these various passages the critics claim that they can discover at least three points of di erence existing between this smaller tent and the larger or Levitical one. These di eren es are as follows : ( 1 ) The smaller tent was always pitched outside the camp but accord ng to the priestly or Levitical history the larger tent was located within the camp. (2) The smaller tent was only a place o f Jehovah's revelation, or o f his co muning with his people ; but the larger or priestly structure was, besides, a place of most elaborate worship. ( 3 ) In the Levitical or larger tent the priests and Levites regularly served, but in the smaller structure it was only Joshua, the servant of Moses, who had charge of the building. All these di erences, however, are easily explained by the theory, given above, of there having been really two tents. esides, it should be observed that after Moses death no further mention is made in the Scriptures of this smaller structure ; which fact would seem to be a strong proof that the smaller one of the two tents was, primarily a leas . a private structure sed by Moses

VARIOUS FACTS RESPECTING PLACES WHERE T H E TABERNACLE WAS BUILT OR LOCATED I.
MOUNT S INA
ITS LOCATION AND PRESENT APPEARANCE Dr. J W. Dawson, in his Modern Science in Bi le Lands, g ves the following facts with regard to the location and presen appearance of the mountain near which the Tabernacle was built. "The actual position of Mount Sina has been a sub ect of een controversy, which may be reduced to two uestions st, Was Mount Sinai in the peninsula of that name or elsewhere 2d, Which of the mounta n the e nsula was the v t of he Law As to the
88
The Fundamentals
rst of these uestions, the claims of the peninsula are s pported by an overwhelming ma s of tradition and of authority, ancient and modern. If this uestion be considered as settled, then it remains to in uir which of the mountain summits of that group of hills in the southern end of the peninsula, which seems to be designated in the Bible by the general name of Horeb, should be regarded as the veritable Mount of the Law ' Five o the mountain summits o f this region have laid claim to this distinction and heir relative merits the e lorers those of the English Ordnance Survey test by seven criteria which must be ul lled by the actual mountain. These are : 1 A mounta n overlooking a plain on which the millions of Israel could be assembled. ( ) Space for the peo le to remove and stand afar o f when the voice of the Lord was heard, and yet to hear that oice. (3) A de ned peak distinctly visible from the plain. ( ) A moun tain so precipitous that the peo le might be said to stand under it and to touch its base. ( ) A mountain capable of being isolated by boundaries. ( ) A mountain with s rings and streams of water in its vicinity. ( 7 ) Pasturage to maintain the ocks of the people f r a year. "By these criteria the surveyors re ect two of the mountains Jebel el E meh and Jebel Ummalawi, as destitute of su cient water and pasturage Jebel atharina, whose claims arise from a statement of osephus that S ai was the highest mountain of the district, which this peak actually is, with the e ception of a neighboring summit twenty ve feet higher, they re ect because of the fact that it is n t visible rom any plain suitable for the encampment of the Israelites. Mount Serbal has in modern times had some advocates but the s r veyors allege in opposition to these that they do not nd, as has been stated, the Sinaitic inscriptions more plentiful there than elsewhere, that the traces of early Christian occupancy do not point to it any more than early tradition, and that it does not meet the topographical re uirements in presenting a de ned peak, convenient camping ground, or a su cient amount of pasturage. "There only remains the long established and venerated Jebel Musa the orthodo Sinai and this in a remarkable and conspicu ous manner, ful ls the re uired conditions, and, besides, illustrates the narrative itself in une pected ways. This mountain has, how ever, two dominant peaks, that of Jebel Musa proper, 7,363 feet in height, and that of Ras S fsafeh 6,937 feet high and of these the

ridge is described as almost isolated, as descending precipitously to the great plain of the district, Er Rahah, which is capable of accommo and has dating two millions of persons in full view of the pe ample camping ground for the whole host in its tributary valleys Further, it is so completely separated from the neighboring mountains that a short and quite intelligible description would de ne its limits, which could be easily marked out. Another remarkable feature is, that we have here the brook Ch. 32 :20) , descending out of the mount referred to in Exodus and, besides this, ve other perennial streams in addition to many good springs. The country is by no means desert, but supplies much pasturage ; and when irrigated and attended to, forms good gardens, and is indeed one of the best and most ferti e spots of the whole peninsula. The explorers show that the statements of some hasty travelers who have given a di erent view are quite incorrect, and also that there is reason to believe that there was greater rainfall and more verdure in ancient times than at present in this part of the country. They further indicate the Wady Shreick, in which is the stream descending from the mount, as the probable place of the making and destruction of the golden calf, and a hill known as Jebel Moneijeh, the mount of conference, as the probable site of the Taber nacle. They think it not improbable that while Ras ufsafeh was the Mount o f the Law, the retirement of Moses during his so ourn on the mount may have been behind the peak in the recesses of Jebel Musa, which thus might properly bear his name II.
S HILOH
ITS RUINS AS RECENTLY I NVESTIGATED Colonel Sir Charles Wil n thus describes the present ruins of uarterly Statement" for 873, pp. Shiloh, in "Ex loration Fund 37, 38 : "The ruins of Seil n ( S hiloh) cover the surface of a tell, or mound, on a spur which lies betwe n two alleys that unite about a quarter of a mile above Khan Lubban, a d thence run to the sea. village, with few earlier The existing remains are those of a foundations, possibly of the date of the Crusades. The walls are built with o d materials, but none of the fragments of columns men tioned by some travelers can now be seen. On the summit are a few heavy foundations, perhaps those of a keep, and on the souther side is a building with a heavy sloping buttress. The rock is exposed over nearly the who e sur ace so that little can be expect d from

e tell slopes down to a broad shoulder cava on. o wa across which a sort of level court 77 feet wide and 4 2 feet long, has been cut out. The rock is in places scarped to a height of ve feet, and along the sides are severa excavations an a few small cisterns. The level portion of the rock is covered by a few inches o f soil. It is not improbable that the place was thus prepared to receive the Tabernacle, which, according to Rabbinical traditions, was a structu e of low stone walls, with the tent stretched over the top. At any rate there is no other level space on the tell su ciently large to ece a tent of the dimensions of the Tabernacle. is in a small valley which oins the mai The spring of Seil one a short distance northeast of the ruins. The supply, whi h small after running a few yards through a subterranean channe was formerly led into a rock-h wn reservoir, but now runs to waste. To the above items Major laude R. onder, R. E., in his Tent ife in Palestine, Vol I pp. 8 , 82, adds as follows : There is no site in the country xed with greater certainty than that of Shiloh. The modern name Seil preserves the m st archaic form, which is found in the Bible in the ethnic Shilonite 1 Kings 1 1 29 . The position of the ruins agrees exactly with the very de ite description given in the Old Testament of the position of Shiloh as on the north side of Bethel now Beitin , on the east side of the h ghway that goeth up from Bethel to Shechem, and on the south of Lebonah Lubbin Judg. 21 : 19 . It is just here that Shiloh still stands in ruins. The scener of the wild mountains is ner than that in Judea the red color of the cli s, which are of great height, is far more picturesque than the shapeless chalk mountains near Jeru salem ; the g ardens and olive groves are more luxuriant, but the crops are poor compared with the plain and round Bethlehem. A deep vall y runs behind the town on the north, and in its sides are many rock-cut sepulchers. "The vineyards of Shiloh have disappeared, though very possibly once surrounding the spring, and perhaps extending down the valley westwards, where water is also found. With the destr ction of the villa e, desolation has spread over the barren hills around. I I I.

and do ble-topped hill, named by the Arabs Tell or Tuleil) el-Full. T e crown of this hill is thirty feet higher than Mount ion, and Jerusalem can be plainly seen from it. On its top is a large pyramidal mound of unhewn stones, which Robinson supposes to have been originally a square tower of 40 or O feet, and to have been violently thrown down. No other foundations are to be seen. At the foot of the hill are ancient substructions, built of large unhewn stones in low, massi e walls. These are on the south side, and adjoin the great road. "I f we take the Scriptural indications as to the site of Nob ( height ) , this hill and these ruins ful ll all the conditions of the case. " ( a ) Nob was so far regarded as belonging to Jerusalem, as one o its villages (thus involving its proximity ) , that David s bringing Goliath s head and sword to the Tabernacle at Nob was regarded as brin ing them t Jerusalem 1 Sam. 1 7 : ) . b A clearer indication as to its situation is, however, gained by the record of the restoration towns and villages in which Nob is menti ned, the name occurring between those of Anathoth and naniah ( Neh. :32 ) . These two places still bear practically the same names, and their sites are well known. In the narrow spa between Anata and Hanina stands the hill Tell el Full, which we take to e ancient Nob. " ( c ) Another indication is contained in Isaiah's account of Sen nacherib's march on Jerusalem, the pictu esque climax of which is, This very day shall he halt at Nob ; he shaketh his hand at h mount of the daughter of ion, the hi l of Jerusalem ( I sa. 1 :28-32) . There are only two hills on the north from which the city can be seen, so as to give reality to the poet s words. One of these is Neby Samwil, and he other is Tell el-Full." I .

says as follows : The identity o f Gibeon with the village of El-Jib, which lies some six or se en miles northwest of Jerusalem, is practically beyond dispute . The modern village still preserves the rst part of the older name, while its situation agrees in every respect with the requirements of the history of the Old Testament. Just beyond Tell el-Full ( Gibeah ) the main road north from Jerusalem t o Beitin ( Bethel) i s j oined by a branch road leading up from the coast. The latter forms the con
The Fundamentals tinuation of the most southerly of three routes which connect the Jordan valley with the aritime Plains. * * * Now j ust before this road ( coming up from the Jordan valley) leaves the higher ground and descends to the Shepheleh, it divides into two, the one branch leading down to the Wady Suleiman, the other running in a more southerly direction by way of the Bethhorons. Here, on this fertile, open plateau, slightly to the south of the main road, rises the hill on which the modern village of El-Jib is built, right on the frontier line which traverses the central range to the south of Bethel. It was the natural pass across alestine, which in early times served as the political border between North and South I srael, and it was owing to its position that Gibeon ac uired so much prominence in the reigns of David and Solomon. A short distance to the east of th village, at the foot of the hill, there is, further, a stone tank o reservoir o f considerable size, supplied by a spring which rises in a cave higher up." his sp ing, the explorers tell us, was probably the ancient "po of G eon" mentioned in 2 Sam. 2 : 1 3. Also, respecting the great high place," Smith s D o has the following : "The most natural position for the high place of Gibeon s the twin mountain immediately south of E -Jib, so c ose as to be all but a part of the town and yet uite separate and distinct. The t sti ony of Epiphaniu , vi ., that the ount of Gibeon was the highest r nd Jerusalem, by which Dean Stanley supports his conjecture (that the present Neby Samwil was the great high place , should be received with caution, standing, as it does, uite alone and belongin to an age which, though early, was marked by ignorance and by the most improbable conclusions. Some additional facts, as given by Rev. W. Shaw Caldecott ( ibid. pp. 60 62) , are as follows : "El Jib is built upon an isolated oblong hill standing in a plain or b sin of great fertility. The northern end of the hill is covered over ith old massive ruins, which have fallen down in every direction, and n which the villagers now live. Across the plain to the south is the ofty range of Neby Samwil. * * Gibeon was one of the four towns in the division of Benjamin given as residences for the sons of Aaron ( Josh. 21 : 1 7 ) . It was thus already inhabited by priests, and this, added to its other advantages, made it, humanly speaking a not unsuitable place fo the capital of the new kingdom. No remains of ( ery ancient) buildings have been di scovered, such as those of er Ramah and Tell e Full."

When a man of brains speaks well of the B ible and Christ he consciously or unconsciously bears tribute to the inspira tion o f the one and the deity o f the other. The D ible claims to be a revelation f rom God, and its char acter sustains its claim. ly to Ezekiel."
"The \Vord of the Lord came express

the seal of inspiration upon the Old.
"The Holy Ghost spake

"All Scripture is

"The prophecy
came not in old time by the will of man, but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost."
(2 Pet. 1 :2 1 . )
I f the men who wrote this Book were not inspired, they were liars, and we have to explain how the Book which con tains the h ighest morality ever given to earth could be written by a set of liars.
And these bad men at the same time wrote
their own doom, for there is no vice more severely condemned in the B ible than deception.
To claim that good men wrote
the B ible, and deny its inspiration, is on a par with the claim that Christ was
a
good man, while He pretended to be what He
was not.

T e Fun amentals teaching is postulated on the written Wor , of which He said "Search the Scriptures ; for i them ye think ye have terna fe ; and they are they whic testify of e." And the moment we turn f rom the Incarnate Word to the written Word come upon the saying, " I n th beginning, God . As to the moral attributes of God, the teaching of Jesus is indubitably clear. " God i s a spirit", He says, "and they that worship Him must worship Hi i spirit and in truth ". It need scarcely be said that a spirit, though invisible and i mpal pable, is a real sel f consciou s perso ality. The communion of Jesus with hi s Spirit is that of one person with another. He does not speak t aw, not to nergy, nor to an inde nable " Something not ourselves that maketh for righteousness" but to One with hom He is on familiar terms. "The only be g tten Son which is in the boso of the Fathe e at de clared Him". As to D ivine providenc H e speaks in n o uncertain The God whom He unveils i in and ver all. Out on t e hillsides He bids us "Consider the lilies, how they grow", and assures us that our Father, "who careth for them, will muc more care for us". In pursuance of thi s fact He encourages u to pray, saying, Ask and it shall be given you, seek and ye shall in kn ck and it shall be opened unto you". Oh, great heart of the Ininite, uic to respond to our every cry fo help ! The doctrine of prayer, as taught by Jesus, is simplicity itsel f. Ve are to run to God with our longings as children to t eir parents ; For i f ye, being vil, know ho to give good gi fts unto our children how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask Him". As to the oral attributes of G od the teaching of Jesus is not only clear but most emp atic ; because at this point i touches vit lly our e ernal welfare. The Divine holiness is presented not so much as an attribute a the condi ion f od's being. It is the light emanating from H i s hrone, of whic Christ is the sup eme mani festation as H e said, I am the
The K no ledge of God light of the world" ; and this l ight must ever be re ected in the life of His disciples, as He aid, "Ye a e the l ight o f the world ; let your light so shine before men that they may ee your good works and glorify God . This holiness is not mer l freedom fro moral contamination ; but such a sensitive av r sion to sin as makes t impossible for God to look with com placency upon any creatu e h o is deiled by it. Hen e the appeal to th cultivation f a holy l i fe ; since "without holine s n o man shall see God". Out o f this atmosphere o f holiness proceed two attri utes which, l ike opening arms, embrace the world. One of the is Justice, or reg rd for law. No teacher ever lived, not even oses, who emphasi ed as de ply as did Jesu s the integrity o f the moral law. e efended n o t only the l a w itsel but the penalties a xed to its v iolati . The calogue is ot so severe an arraignment o f sin as the Sermon on the ount which rings with the inviolability of law. The other o f the outstretched arms i s Love The fullness of Divine lo e is set forth in the words o f esus : "When ye pray say, Our Fath r " . t was wisely observed by \ a ame de Stael that if Jesus had never one an th ing in the world e cept to teach us "Our Father" H e would have conferred an i estimable boon upon all the children of men. God s love is mani fest in the unceasing gifts of is providence ; but its crownin token is the grace of salvation : " God so loved the world that He gave H s only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting i fe". An l the reconciliation bet\veen Love and ustice i s found at the Cross. Here "mercy and truth a e met together ; right eousness and peace have kissed each other". As law is sacred an inviolable, its pena ty must be in icted ; it must be in icted either upon the malefactor or pon some co pe ent substi ute who shall volunteer to sufer for him. It s the only begot en S o who vo unteers, saying, " Here am , send e " The j ustice of God is sho n in th e sufering in icted upon His only begot

I t pleased God to indicate H s supreme maj e ty be fore is ancient peop e in the ontroversy on Carme . ll d y the ag n priests ass mbled at t eir altar cried, "0 Baa , hear u s but there was no vo ce or any that regarded. At even ng t e lone prophet of J o ah s od b side s ltar and calmly mad his pra er "0 God of I rael, let it known this ay that Thou art od ! as t ere an tha regarded o, yo der in the twil ght sky a fa ling leece of re ! I a ve struck silence he peopl e sa i descending, lower and lower, u til it to ched the sacri ce and consumed i . The logic of the argu ment was irres stible : they cried wi h one acc rd, " ehovah s the God ! " The antitype a p rallel o f that great controversy is at Calvary, where hri st, at once the ministering priest and the sa riice upon he ltar, made His ast prayer with hands out stretch d up n the cross ; and the descending ire consumed Him as a whole bu nt ofer ng for the wor s sin. The logic, here also, is ans e able. In all he world there no other gospel which adeq ately s s forth the Divine love. By th power of truth b th triumph o righteousness, by the logic of events, by the ph l sophy of hi tory, by the blood of the at nement, let the \ orl nswer, "Our God i s the G d of salvation ; and the e is one ot er b ide im !

ocialistic state, but they are v ividly cons o s o their hatred against existing instit tions which h hold r n sible for the present social inequalities and wrongs ris ian teachers, therefore, do well to me t fairly and gen ro l the ttacks which Socialists are ma in upon e Chu rch and they should explain to Socialists their misconceptions and the bvious de ects o f their creed. 1. Popular Socialism is m istaken in iden tifying th e Ch ris tian Ch u rc h with «capital/' and in regarding t e Chu ch as re sponsible for the present social order. It is commonly asserted that the Church is the rich man s club" ; tha Christian min sters are controlled by men of w ealth and afraid to rebu e social evils, that the Gospel is preached with the purpose of making poor men con ent it their present conditions and of preventing them from rising to assert their rights. As a mat ter of fact the Church is committed to no one social order. I t has lourished under imperial rule as it has in great repub lics, but it is opposed to the w rongs and inj ustice o every sys tem. Instead of being "the rich man s club the great propor tion of its member are wage earners, and a very small ro ortion ar rich. or instance, of the Church mem bers in the nited tates only a few could be classed as ca i talists. On the o her hand, very any capitalists, un or tunately, are not pro essed hristians nor actively inter ste n the Churc . As to the m inistry, it is rarely recruited f rom the ran s f the wealthy, and its representatives are usuall fearless in their rebu e of social sins. I t is the glory of the Church that i t welcomes to its services and blesses by its o ces both rich and poor alike and does more to obliterate class distinc ions than any other agency in the world. 2. Popular Social sm unjustly p laces all cap italis ts u n der susp ic io. of dishonesty and sel sl ess. I t i s true that the more intelligent ad ocates o f Socialism, as an economic pro sal, discriminate bet een the responsibilities of individuals

The spir t eing ceased to be. The book asserts with a p s tivenes that error alwa s as sumes, that in Jes s Chri t "ther was no mixture o f natures". The vita do trine of the i carnation o f the Son o f od, the second Person o f the T rinity, is den ed, and Christ is degraded to the level o f A dam be fore his s in an ll. In sh rt, the book irtually a rms t at there was no incarnation whatever. I t appears needless to point out how completely and thoroughly the ord o f God contra icts this false and de grad ng v e\ o f ur Lo d s lessed erson. et but a few texts be cited as evide ce that hrist did actu lly assume our human nature, inless o f course, but true and enuine human nature.

There is a strange and ominous silence regarding this most imp ortant subject er apparent in the writings of A r.

The la e Gerald assey, poet, and Spiritualist, wrote "I do not ind that Christ claimed for H imsel f more than He hen He i dentiied H imself eld out as possible for others. with the ather, it was in t e oneness of mediumszip.

The A pologet c Value of Pa l's
p stl
seem y this inscription that the Apostle desi red to intr d e Chri t into the sphere of he truly Divine. The amous benediction at the close of the Second pistle to the Corinthians implies a ery h igh co ception of Christ's person and position One could scarcely believe that P ul would use such a collocation o f phrases as the grace o f the ord Jesus, the love of God and the ellowship of the H ly Spirit, unless Christ had been for h im a Divine eing, even od. Now all this simply adds force to John' p rologue : ' ' I n the beginning was the \Vord, and the \Vord was with God, and the \V rd was God." The four great Pauline epistles agree, i n the most im porta t details, with the portraitu e given us o Jesus in the Gospels. The conception of the person of hri t, as \ e have al ready shown, was not natural to Paul. e was a bitter op ponent of Chri stianity. It was not the esult of gradually changing convictions regarding the clai s of Jesus Ch rist-a l the testimony \ hich bears upon the sub ect implies the con trary. It was not due to extreme mysticism, for Paul's writ ings impress us as being remarkably sane and lo ical. o endeavor t o account for it upon merely natu ral grounds is satisfactory, an so ve must accept his own statement of the case. The truth o f the \ essiahship of Jesus was a matter o f re elation in the experience o his conversion, and if we accept that, w e must necessarily accept all that it involves. The Gospels and pistles do not contradict, but only supple ment this protraiture They add lines of beauty to the ru ged outline pain ed by Paul, and are inextri ably connected with the four great epistles. Accepting these letters as genuine and Paul's explanation o f his doctrine as true, we must ac ept the whole o f the ew Testament documents as cre ible, and the portraitu e o f the hrist as t at o f a real person Son of ma and Son of God, the God- an.

c ating he texts which have the vord or sub ec t em, i not to be despised. God shook the wor d through Dwight oo y, who was fond of this method. I have learned to love what, for lack of a better word, I call the sectional method, by h ch one begins at a certa n place an l oes through pa a gr ph, chapter or book, gathe ing and classi fying every thought. It reminds one of \I r. Sp rgeon's saying suggested by the worm-eaten B ibl whi h he found on the ta le of a Sc ttish wayside in . H olding it up to t e l ight, he noticed nly one hole t ro gh which the l ght shone. One worm, t eems, had begun at Gene is and eaten th ro g to Revelat on, and Spurgeon p rayed, "Lord, make me a book-worm like that." uch a bo k-worm never turns into an earth-worm. It will wings by and by. Bu whatever be your method, o not fail to read the Bi le sitting. ou can o it in less by books. Read enesis at than three hours Th take xodus ; then Leviticus, and so n hro h the whole library of sixty-six volumes. The astron mer shoul look at the hea ens as a whole before he takes t his telescope. The botanist should look at the ield and gardens bef re he takes to hi mic oscope. If you have not read the Scri tures, a book t a sitti g, you may take i t for ranted that u do not kno your B i le. study o words yields a rich harvest o f knowledge and blessing. Lu h r sa d that he studie the B ible as he gathered ap e . irst, h h ok the whole tree, that he ripest might fall. Then he climbe t e tree and sh ok each limb, and when he had shaken ach lim , he shook each branch, and a ter ch branch every twig, and then looked under each leaf. Let u s sea ch he B ible as a h le ; shake the hole tree ; read i t as r pidly a you would a y other bo k ; then shake every limb, studying ook after book. Then shake every branch, giving attention to the ch pters when they do not break the sense. Then s ake every t vig by care ful s udy of the paragraphs and senten es,
