To understand the Old Testa ment we must study carefully the histoiy out of which it came. For the nation and its destiny looms large in the Old Testament. To get the full flavor of this national spirit we must turn to the writings of the prophets. For the prophet was a close student of the politics of his day. His message was deter mined to a large degree by the cir- , cumstances in which he found himself. “Out of them,” writes one commentator, “he read the will of God and in them he saw the hand of God at work.” Thus the prophets were con vinced that the long pilgrimage of the Jewish common wealth, with all of its ups and downs, was essen tially sacred. They loved to dwell on the covenant between God and Israel, the redemption from Egyp tian serfdom, the divine guidance through the wilderness, and the overthrow cf the heathen in Canaan. Carlyle once said that “the Bible of every nation is its history.” This is peculiarly true of the Hebrew folk. Intensely patriotic, their his tory meant everything to them. It is no wonder then that their Bible is soaked With a vivid national iecling. Our lesson text is a re minder of this striking emphasis. It deals with the institution of the historic Passover Festival which the Jews have always associated with the Exodus from Egypt, and which they still observe. Note that the Passover lamb was originally sacrificed and the blood sprinkled on the doorposts by each head of a family, for there was no tabernacle and no order of priests. ?o Christians the crucifixion of our Master fulfills all that is signi fied by the Jewish Passover. “For you are free from the old leaven,” to tne church at Corinth. “Christ our paschal lamb .as k>ejn sacrinced.” as God saved .tis people from tneir slavery un- eer rharaoh, so enrist, by his death, redeemed his followers from opirituai bondage. xx Ancien-ts Had Three Voting Plans Voting methods among the an cients include showing hands, strik ing weapons upon shields and tak ing, positions to the right or left of a line. . • txt Where Perfumes Come From Many plants and fruits furnish materials for perfumes.
