1 - i 4? biolilen Text. Ileb. xi.. 17 ? Memory
Versee, C-S? Commentary on the
Day's Lesson.
1. "After these thin;;'." The thin?" reorded
in the previous chapter regarding
Jla-^ar and Ishmncl a.id their banishment.
"J.hd prove Abraham" <K. V.) "Not incite
to sin (.K.s. 1: 1"), but try, prove.
? Ive occasion for the development of
faith." 1 Cor. 10: 13; Heb. 11: 17; James 1:
12. It is well to see that Cod confers a
fiend honor upon us v hen He thus tests
w our hearts. Tempting is tor the s ike of
leading men to evil: testing them i? tor the
|iurj):..?e of malting them better. The trials
of life are to prove what we are. to see if
we are fitted for larger things. "Here I
am." Hcadv ;.t a moment's notice for
Cod's service.
2. "Thine o:iiv son." His only son l?y
fhirah, h;s legal wife. Had Abraham's
who'e soul not been stayed sir.iplv on the
Lord he never could have yielded unhesitating
obedience to such a searching command.
Abraham desired earnestly to be
let into the mystery of redemption, and
Cod let hitn feel by experience what it
vva? to lose a beloved son. "Land of Mol
iah." A gem nil phrase for the mountainous
district of Jerusalem. This Moriah
was the same ?-ite upon which Solomon
built the temple, and Calvary was nearby.
"Tor a purnt offering." Abraham was living
amidst idolaters who sacrificed their
first born t<? their idols, and "Abraham
himself might not have been sure that he
ought not to offer a< costly sacrifices as the
heathen did: but Cod at this time tauglst
Ji.ru and his descendants not to offer huin
:i sacrifices, and yet they were to retain
the spirit of &ucrinc3 out ot which tlicy
fc:? v.\"
J. "Rose up c.ar.v." That there might
I?e no appearance o: delay or leim-tance on
l:i< ! art iie made every preparation for tiie
saeri.'icv be:" ire .-riling oat?the nnftia!?,
the knife, the servants to convey then;
?vd he it.: 1 the painful secret pent up ia
his bo-mi during the three days l:e van
journeying to Mori a!; He murm trcd not,rr.r
to i!c counsel with t!e<h and blood.
He waited no. to i msv.lt with Sarah, nor
listen to the misgivings o; his own mind.
Tiie command was cltai and the obediente
I ronipt. ...
4. "J he th-.rd < ay.' Bcer-sne.in. Abraham's
present home, was a town 0:1 t 12
southern border of Palestine, frty-f.ve
miles south of Jerusalem, and three days
v.as the usual tirre it would take them to
make the minty. In the three days'
journey ... re was t megivon for rellection;
thus the struggle of faith is not short and
momenta'v, but prolonged. As this sacrifice
was typical of that of Christ, so here
may be a reference to the thin! day of
}{is resurrection. "Saw the place." The
b'll Moriah can be seen about three milc?
distant by one coming from Beer-sheba.
"A.od worship." Perform a solemn
act of devotion which God requires. 1
"Come again to you." This ror.v have
been an expression of faith that God would
restore his son even if actually sacrficcd.
Heb. 11: 17-19. This reminds us of our
Lord in Gethsemane; going into such an
cgcr.-.y, f'e would net admit others to go
with Biro.
6. "Laid it upon Tsnr.c." Tsaac carried
the wood for the burnt offering. so Christ
carried the tree whereon He died (John
19: 17); the binding of Isaac was also
typical, for so Christ was bound. Matt.
27: 2. "Took the fire."' That is. carrying
in his hand the vessel containing the coals
* of fire.
7. "Where is the lamb?" The tenderness
of this scene is only to be surpassed
bv those of Gethsemare and Calvary.
Nothing can be conceived more affectionate
and affecting.
8. "Will provide." The patriarch spoke
prophetically, and referred to that Lamb
c: Cod who in the fulness of time should
take away the sin of the world, and of
whom Isaac was a most expressive type.
The giving un by the father of his Oily
and well beloved son (v. 3; John 3: 16),
the ready submission of the son (v. 9;
John 10: 13). the bearing of the instrument
of death by the victim (v. f>: John
J9: 17). the violent death consented to (v.
10: John 19: 16). the deliverance from
death on the third clay (vs. 4. 12: Matt.
20: 19). can not be mere accidental coin
9. 'Bound Tsaae, his son."' Had not
the patriarch been sustained by the full
consciousness of acting in obedience to
God's will, the effort must have been too
great for human endurance; and ?ud pot
Isaac, then probably twenty-five years of
aze. displayed equal faith in submitting,
this great trial could not" have been gone
through.
id. '"Stretched forth his hsnd." The
deed is virtually done when the will shows
firm determination. God who looketh upon
the ^ear{ regardet'n the sacrifice as aire ad v
made. H?; will take the will for the deed,
but mcver the deed for the will.
1?. "The angel ?f the Lord." The very
persogi who was represented by tlx* offering:
the Lord Jesus, who calii Ilims^f
Jeboc.ah (v. 16). and on lUs owa authoaty
renews tlie promises of the covenant. Hi?
was ever the rrcat SI* Aitor betwasc Ood
and ngin. "Called unto Idte." Wheu wo
rapnot see cyj, any side a wrap of
then God comes and oiscn Aow? as a
wonderful deliverance.
12- "Lay net thipe hand.'' The sacrifice i
was virtually offered, the intention. the
purpose to do it. was shown in all Beerrty
and fulness. "I know.* The b?*t evidence
of our fearing God is our being willing
to honor Him with that which re dearest
to us, and to part with ell for Him.
"That, thou fearest God." This wae faith
in action. Paul pays tout Aorebara was
accepted by faith, and James eevs he was
accepted by works o: obedience, but these
are only two swic c of the same thing, for
not a single act of faith can be named but
what ha^ in it the nature of obedienee.
*? .. ,-nr/i Thniiffh Christ
was typified by Isaac, vet the offering of
him was suspended, and in the meantime
the sacrifice of beasts was accepted as a
pledge' of that expiation for sin which
should be made in "the fulness of time:"
the {rreat principle of the Mosaic economy
was the acceptance of animal sacrifices instead
of human.
14. "Jehovah-jireh." That is. "The
Lord will see, or provide." "It shall be
seen." The meaning: is that libs was the
spot of God's choice for the manifestation
of His visible presence, where the sanctuary
should be erected and sacrifices offered.
After the ram had been offered
the an pel of the Lord again called to
Abraham and renewed the covenant that
God had mcde with him. Abraham then
returned to Keer-sheba.
The Czarina of Russia has now four
daughters: one ^ix years old, one four,

A Broken Heart.
T should like to narrate the following,
which is mostly true. Some year- ago.
1 was playing in a match in India. Han- '
galore vs. Madras, when a hawk suddenly
swooped down on my ball and carried '
it old in its claws. I appealed to my ad- '
vcrsary to allow me to drop another '
ball, but he \va- one of our canny broth- :
rcn. and repiicd: "Eh. no. man: lost \
ball, lost hole." This did not admit of
argument. Some weeks afterward I

by it a dead hawk, and in the nest?my j
golf bail; both the hawk and the bail |
were quite warm. I sent the hawk to ]
the curator of the museum, and asked for
a post mortem; his verdict was "a bro- ,
ken heart." and on my telling him the ]
story he had no doubt that the poor bird
had expired in its vain effort to hatch
out my "silvertown."?London Globe. \
