INTERNATIONAL LESSON COMMENTS !
FOR AUCUST II. i
(
Subject: Goil'n Promise to Abraham,
( en. xv., 1-1K?(.olden Text, Gen. xv.,
1?Memory Veritta, 5-7?Commentary i
on the Daj 'a Lesson.
1. "Alter these things." The fact that
immediately after the battle with the kings
there came another vision from God to
Abram leads us to think that he inav have 1
been passing through a testing time, and :
jierhaps he was tempted to discourage- !
inenr. lie was also disappointed in not i
lf.eiving the fulfilment 01 the promise Cod
had made hint regarding his descendants, ,
for as yet he had no child. "In a vision.''
W hich supposes Abram awake, and some '
visible appearance or sensible token of the 1
presence of the divine glory. "Fear not.*' <
Fear not thy enemies, neither fear lest .My (
promises shall fail thee. "I am thy j
shield."' God was Abram's portion, and \
Ho is the portion of e very righteous s >u!.
"Great reward." There is surely a reference
lure to the battle and the victory. 1
When God is ours we have all that is sufficient
for defense and reward; this promise ]
involves eternal life.
2. "I go childless." Seeing I ain going
childless; that is, I am going out ox tiie
worid in this condition. Abram desired a 1
son, for he knew upon divine authority 1
that his seed should inherit tlie land. ' <
Sonship and heirship arc inseparably con- i
netted in the thoughts of Cod. "Steward \
o; my house." The heir into whose hands .
Abram's possessions must descend, in con- (
s?juenee of his childless condition. "Is .
this Eiiezer?" How could the promise be
fuifiled when a "stranger"' is likely to be 1
Lis heir?
3. "Given no seed." Though we should ,
never complain of Cod yet v.e may com- <
plain to Him, and tell Him ail our griev
anccs. "One born in my house." That is, .
"one attached to or a dependant of his
house." This is a reference to the servant '
who, from ail appearances, would become (
his heir. '
4. "Shall not be thine heir." There is j
no iimu 10 uie power 01 c>ou, ior ne wno {
tan quicken the dead can do anything. ,
5. "Look?tell the stars." The stars in
that climate are brighter than in ours. *
.Professor Hall says he has known Venus *
to sl;ine so bright as to cast a shadow. <
Brighter than the stars, steadier than their
flames shall be the fulfilment of God's
promises. God points to the stars as a
sign to Abram. "tjo shall thy seed be." ?
The descendants of Abram included not ?
only Israelites, but the Arabians, the Mid- 1
ianites, the Ammonites and Moabites were
a numerous people, and were for more (
than a thousand years among the most ini- ]
Iiortant in Asia. At least two V" inches of
lis strong stock yet remain?the Jews, i
who ore found in every part of the earth, '
and the Arabs, who still roam, unconquc-red
over the desert. But the highest
fulfilment was in Christ. God's people
are. by faith, "children of Abraham." and : "heirs
according to the promise." Gal. 3: | (
7, 9, 29. | j
A "Relieved in the Lord." God speaks ,
?Abram believes, and all is settled and all I (
is sure. Abram believed the truth of the j promise
that was now made him, resting j <
upon the power and faithfulness ot Gcd J
who had made it. See Kom. 4: 19-21. 4
"Counted it." There was no act but that (
of the mir.d and heart, no work of any <
kind; hence the doctrine of justification ;
by faith, without any merit of works; for
in this case there could be no works of
Abrani which would merit the salvation o.
the whole human race. "For righteousness."'
Or justification.
7. "I am the Lord." The promises of
God are very broad, very high and very
long. They iook far down the future, but
we may remember that there is omniscience
in their utterance and omnipotence ,
in their fulfilment. I
8. "Whereby shall I know?" That is,
"by what sign shall 1 be assured that L
shall inherit this land?'"
9. "Take me an heifer." etc. The animals
prescribed are of the three kinds af- i
terward allowed by the law for sacrifice,
and the birds are those repeatedly mentioned
in the law as those to be brought
for offerings.
10. "He took?all these." Abram followed
to the very letter the directions God
Itad given him; so we must obey God fully
before we can have reason to expect Him
to fulfil His promises to us. "Divided
them," etc. The manner of ratifying a
covenant was to divide the animals lengthwise,
as near as possible in two equal
r>arts. which were placed opposite to each
other a short distance apart; the covenanting
parties would then meet in the centre
and take the customary oath. i
11. "Came#down." Having made ready
the sacrifices he waited for the fire of God
to consume them, which was the u?ual
token of acceptance. While he waited
ravenous birds of prey which feed upon
dead bodies "came down" to consume the
sacrifice. How often do intruding cares,
like unclear, birds, seize upon that time
and those affections which have been given
to God!
12. "Was going down." About the
t'me of the evening sacrifice. "A deep
sleep." Not a common sleep through weariness
or carelessness, but such a sleep as
God caused to fall upon Adam. "Great
darkness." Which God designed to be expressive
of the affliction and misery into
which his posterity should be brought during
their bondage in Egypt, as the next
verse particularly states.
13. "Shall afflict them." From the
time God called Abram at Haran it was
430 years before Abram's aescenuanis
came into possession of their own land,
but the children of Israel were actually in j
Egypt only half that time, or 215 years.
14. "That nation." The Egyptian na- ;
tion. "Will I judge." God brought plagues <
and destruction upon the Egyptians.
"Come out." Israel was redeemed from
bondage and came out of Egypt with great
wealth. This promise was literally fulliied,
but thare was a long time of waiting.
15. "In peace." This verse strongly implies
the immortality of the soul.
16. "Amorites." This was the general
' - ' - " ,u
name lor Hie tauaauuiMi mucs.
?not yet full." From these words we
learn that there is a certain pitch of iniquity
to which nations may arrive before
they are destroyed, and beyond which God
wili not permit them to pass.
17. "A smoking furnace. ' This signified
the afiiiction of the children of Israel
in Egypt. There were there in the furnace
ot afiiiction. "Burning lamp." The
symbol ot the divine presence. Faith may
be strong, but light comes while we stand
before the Lord, by the holy altar of burnt
offering.
IS. "Made a covenant." A covenant is
a mutual agreement between two contracting
parties, each of which is bound to fulfil
certain engagements to the other. In
Holy Scripture it is used mostly to denote
certain defined relations between God and
man. "River of Egypt." Probably the
River Nile.
