Wilbur Chapman. the popular pastor of the Fourth Presbytertan Church, who is remarkably successi as an evangelist. has prepared an intere-ting sermon upon the subject of "The W\agons Are Coming." It is preached from the text. "Aiid when he aw the wagons wlih .o=eph had sent to :arry him, the spirit ei Jacob their father revived." Ceneiss 45: 2. There is a fascination about the land of Eavvt which cannot he de_crii:ed in words. There are some paruicu'ar features of this neient land which i:ine. vou. Fir=t of all there is a peculiar haze over the country ,hich is unlike anything to be seen in any ather part of the world. The sunsets are ndescribable. but the most striking thing ihout Egypt is the ruins: on every side of ou are these ruins telling of the splendors >f past days. You pas- up and down aye tues Ihat are lined with sphinx and with beVk. the exquiZite earvings of which re reai the fact that thtre were giants in Lhe iav.s when thie VOrks of art were nade. In the olden timncs t:e world's omp and wealth seemed to have been oured at the very feet of this capital of .aypt. and here in all the days of its spen lor and power stood Jo-<ph, next to Pha -aoh in power. Ther-e are some places vis ted by the traveler to-day which speak di :ectil of Joseph and his times. as. for ex nple, the ancient obelisk at Helioapolis. vhlcre Joseph ;ot his bride, and the most mcient sphinx standing near the pyramids ievouod Cairo looking out to-day over the rastc Of the desert a, it has been doing 'or centuries, and if its lips could move it uicht sav truh-. "Before Abraham was I un." The story of the early life of foseph need not be told. for we are per ecetly familiar with it. We listened to he recounting of it in our childhood's iys, and it was one of the fascinating sto ies told us by our Christian mothers. The count of his coat of many colors, the >owing sheaves in the harvest field, the Lner of his brother, and the grief of his >ld father are facts too well known to eed telling here. except that it is well for is to know that he is, to say the least, an linmost perfect illustration of our Saviour. r as some one has said, "Our Joseph," for he usnmes of Joseph and Jesus are practi al,y the same. Joseph was loved by his ather, hated by his brethren, and was ex lted to the place of power in the then :nown greatest kingdom in the world. Our :aviour was the beloved Son of His Fath r, was hated by those whom He came to ave, sold for thirty pieces of silver, cast nto the pit, is to become the Saviour of i s brethren, and is exalted to-day at the ight hand of the Father in majesty and in ower. All this is striking, to say the least, nd makes the text to be of added interest. I. The story of Jacob. We cannot appre iate this text without we have the story of his remarkable Old Testament character. fe was a typical Jew, if we understand im as we may understand Israel; a people und in every country and belonging to one. Some one has said that Abraham as a hero, but Jacob a plain man dwelling tents. Abraham is above us. but Jacob one of ourselves. and the difference be ween Abraham and Jacob in the Old Tes ument is the difference between Paul and eter in the New Testament. the one tow ring above us like some mighty mountain eak, and the other our brother .a - anion in temptation ar ru . e re several. points in the history.of Jacob -hich we.*ould do well to have in mind,. First, 'Bethe!. It was a bleak, barren lacD in the heart of Palestine, the traveler Mon every side of him great rocks and othing but rocks, and long years ago -hen Jacob was fleeing away from his1 rother Esau the swift E.astern night comes own upon him, and there was nothing for im to do but to lie down, make a pillow fstones for his head and try to sleep.. (a) The Ladder. Did this not teach in be days of Jacob what we have learned nce the time of Christ that earth is not be binding star, but is bound to heaven ot simply by a ladder in a man's dream, ut by Him of whom the ladder is an illus ration, and who said. "No man cometh nto the Father but by Me." (b) The Angels. W hen we see them as ending it is an illustration of our prayers ising to God. and when we behold them escending it is an illustration of the an ners coming down. It is certainly a corn )rt for us all to know that we are as truly nited to God as in the night of Jacob's ream he felt himself to be. (c) The Voice of God. He said to the le.eping man, "I will be with thee, I will eep thee, I will not leave thee," and this ream was an inspiration for many a long reary day. Second, Jabbok. Jacob is on his way ack home when suddenly he hears that 1sau is ahead of him and he is afraid. Hie ends his pronerty over the stream and hen his children and finally his beloved tachel. and he himself is left alone. round him the stillness of the midnight our, beside him the murmur of the brook ver the stones, above him the depths of eaen, and while he was left alone the hought of his past failure comes to him nd he is depressed, when suddenly he nds himself in the grasp of the angel, and e struggles to free himself. Let it be oted that he is not wrestling with the an el, but the angel with him, and is this iot God seeking to take from Jacob's life hat which has hindered the developmient f God's life in him. There are three hines to be remembered here. (a) The change of his name. His name ws Jacob. wahich means "a supplanter and 'heat," and the angel gave him the name 'f Israe}, which means 'a priince," because e had prevailed. (b) Power with God and with men. but et it be remembered that it is power with sod first. So many of us are seeking for >ower to move men; if we could but learn hat we can move men by the way of the brone of God it would be a lesson of un peakable value. (ct The vision of God. Ever afterward s Jacob remembered JIabbok he said, "I iave seen God face to face," and this w-as he s-ecret in part of the transformation of li character. Thid. Bethel. It will be noticed that acob is at Bethel again. He has had a lrearv "xnerience of failure, and in the Eth chapter of Genesis God tells .him to -o back to B.ethel. In itself Bethel is nxot nuh, it is just a long range of barren 'i!' hut to Jacoh it was a memorable no for there he had seen God. It is an as thing to understand how he might laae cbhen homesick for Bethel. for we one to see the old home so filled with sa lre emriories and the old land where we -:---: bhorn. the old church where first we -e -o ( -r---t. and so God said to JIacob. a -avvur idols," and lie buried bchm near to the oak and hurried on to Rt~hel. Is this not a lesson for some of us n the-c days. we have spiritually iecne. to have lost the peace that once we hail. the power thatfused to be ours, let us go back to Bethel and pray as we used to pray. road the Bible as we used to read it. enend the Lord's day as we used to snend it. give ourselves to God again. I doubt not ut that blessing will be ours without measure. There are some other events which we ought to keep in mind in the life of Jacob to apnreciate the text. One was the death of Rachel as he came near to Bethlehem. I have seen the tomb in which it is said her body was placed, and this is recorded in the 35th chapter of Genesis. the 16th to the 19th verses, "And they a little way to come to Ephrath; Rachel travailed, and she had hard lab And it came to pass as she was in ha labor that the midwife said unto her, F not, thou shalt have this son also. And came to pass, as her soul was in depa ing, for she died, that she called his na Ben-oni, but his father called him Ben' r min. And Rachel died. and was buried fee the way to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem Eto The other was his loss of Joseph. F ab twenty years he had mourned him. The o are some cries that are crushed out of hiof heart which enable us to see and undep an stand his grief, as, for example, "I shal( by go down to my grave mourning." anit acain. "Me ye have bereft of my ebildre>rbe Joseph is not. Simion is not and now you . will take Benjamin from me.' h II. i The mEeting of Joseph and Jacob: \ are familiar with .he story of .Josenh's rev-.r elation of peace to his brethren and now. at Pharaoh's suggestion the wagons .eror sent for the old man and all his :oved one4t that they might come into the land ot_1 Egypt and dwell there while the ami raged in 'Canaan. I can hear the wgo rumbling outside the palace door. andPha raoh stands at his palace with Joseph b side him, the ring upon his hand and 'a. chain of authority about his neck. Wago a after wagon passes away ladened with-corn f and wheat and a change of raiment, and i can see Jacob as he sits in front of hil home thinking of his ab.ent sons and Joseph, I am sure, for whether our bo h co out to the ends of the earth or heaven they never get away from us. Suddenly he sees a cloud of dust in the distance, and he knows that some one is coming. His heart begins to beat rapidly when he im agines it to be his sons. When they are near enough to cry out to him they teft him, "Joseph is yet alive." At this the of j man fainted. 'But when he saw th4 wagons which Joseph had sent to carr$ him the spirit of Jacob their father re4 vived." And he said. "It is enough4 Josenh my son is vet alive. I will go and see him before I die." From all of this beautiful Old Testament incident I learn these helpful lesons. First, the wagons have come for us, f bringing us the best blessings of heaven, containing a change of raiment. so that we need be clad no longer in the garments - our own righteousness. but in the robes of His righteousness. In this garment there] is the mark of the blood shed for our re demption and the reflection of the glory of the throne of God, bringing us food to eat that the world cannot give, and which if a man eat he shall live forever. Second. bringing us good news. These wagons shall come to us as they came to Jacob. The best of the news was tha Joseph was yet alive. In the Old Testa.t rnent when the day of atonement came thi priest took off his garment of glory and ba:utv and clad in linen robes made hii wa. into the presence of the Ark of tht Covenant, and then the service over hct ame out and put on again the garment glory and beauty, on the hem of the robe >f which there was a golden bell, and omegranate the whole length of the he round about, and as he moved around th eople heard the ringing of the bello an ,new that the priest was yet alive. Jacob new that Joseph was alive because h( n saw the wagons. and we know that ou 2: Joseph is yet alive because of the bless- o ngs He is showering upon us and the p ieace which passeth understanding filling yur souls, and Jacob .heard that Joseph iimself would come to meet him. and one d lay our Joseph shall apoear. We know d iot when that day shall be, but the skies hall brighten with our coming Lord, and vhen He comes-we shall step into the cha- x -iot and be taken away from this earth to ieaven. Lord Jesus come quickly. Third, the wagons took Jacob up to his ost boy, and one day the wag n will co fthe Nile in igyt,wichh was t ut of Joseph, ad that is what heaven s to us. the presence of Jesus. If He is iot there, there will be no music; if He is ot there, there will be no glory; if He is ot there, there will be no joy, but thank3 >e unto God these wagons shall take us ip to meet our loved ones to whom we2 ave said good-bye in this world, and that vill be joy unspeakable. III. Home at last. The end has come for acob. His has been a great life,, and his Sgreat fight. We scarcely appreciate him itil he is going. We have looked upon peat bpjildings in process of construction nd sad "Tihat is the greatest building n the city," but never until the scaffold ng is taken down do we appreciate the vork of the architect or the skill of the nen who carried out his plans, and now ;hat the scaffolding is being taken down rom about Jacob we see his real manhoodi. I shall be gathered to my people," he iaid to those who were about him, and hat settles for me the question as to vhether we shall know each other in the ther land. "What is death, 0 what is death? 'Tis slumber to the weary, 'Tis rest to the forlorn, 'Tis shelter to the dreary, 'Tis yeace amid the storm. 'Tis the entrance to our home, 'Tis the passage to that God Who bids His children come, When their weary course is trod." "Bury me with my fathers," he said, 3enesis 49: 29-31. "And he charged them. id said unto them, I am to be gathered mnto my people; bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron, the Hittite. In the cave that is in the eld of Machpelah, which is before Mamre, i the land of Canaan. which Abraham bought with the field of Ephron, the Hit tite, for a possession of a bury-place. There they buried Abraham and Sarah, bis wife; there they buried Isaac and Re bekah. his wife, and there I buried Leah," and that must have been' a great proces sion which started from Egypt to Canaan. [ can think of another procession a little like it. In 1881, not far from Luxor, a great find was made of kings and queens at a place called Del El Bahri. For a long time the tourists had been picking up pieces of jewelry and other valuables which the scholars knew belonged to the kings and queens of other ages, and at last after much work it was found that a discovery had been made of the greatest value, and when the reoresentatives of the Government made their way to Del El Bahri they really found the mummy of the great Pharaoh and others who were bur ied with him. These bodies were taken out of the place of hiding, carried to the Nile and floated off to Cairo, and it is said as the procession moved along the cel ebrated river the Egyptians lined the bank all the way to the city, threw dust into the air, fell upon their faces and cried aloud, "Pharaoh 1de great has come again! Pharaoh the great has come again?' It must have been like this when Jacob was taken back to Canaan, "Jacob, the great. has come again." but at last they reach the cave of Machnelah. and' they place him there to rest. Abraham is there with Sarah and Isaac with Rebekah and JIacob with Leah, and there ther shall wait until the tomb is opened by the coming of Christ, and hand in hand they shall go forth to meet Him. May God speed the day. ___________ The Estimate of a lian. If a man be gracione and co':rteouls to strangers, it shows that he is a citizen of the world ,and that his heart is no islafrd, cut off from other- lands. but a continent that joins to them. If he be compassion ate towards the afflictions of others. it shows that his heart is like the noble tree that is wounded itself when it gives the ( balm.
