THE WILDERNESS OF SINAI

i® r~|| - m WiHWiW

In the third month after they left Egypt, the children of Israel came into the wilderness of Sinai. There they encamped while Moses went int othe mountain to commune with Jehovah. "Obey my voice and keep my covenant,” Jehovah declared, "and ye shall be unto me.a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.” When Moses brought back the message, the elders accepted it unanimously.

Koom ror expansion The addition of numerals to th« old telephone designations in New York city will allow for expansion of 154 years without making any ; change in the csta’-ngnlng syslem.

That the people might hear the law and believe, Jehovah promised to reveal himself on the third day. For two days the Israelites sanctified themselves by bathing and prayer. Jehovah had promised to reveal himself in a cloud of smoke so far as he could without destroying them by his terrible glory. A barrier was built about the base of the mountain and the plain to shield the multitude.

One of the most important motives running through the ten com I mandments ts they were handed down to Moses on Mount Sinai, has Ito do w ith reverence. There was reverence for Sabbath, for one’s parents, for the neighbor's wife, for! law- and order, and, in the worship of Jehovah, tlie greatest reverence of all. And Moses insisted that the commandments be kept to the spirit ot the letter. Well tile great leader realized the necessity of reverence for the good things in ’ife to insure the welfare of his people. Today, alas, reverence is sadly ( lacking among all of us. We find it in the disrespect for law in the open violation of prohibition. We ( find it in the disregard for the regulations of traffic. We find it in many another instance. It is . very well to say that the result is ( du£ to the enactment of laws not ( popu'ar in themselves; but the fact i remains that we have the laws and , i whl'e they are enacted, it is our - I duty to see that they are observed. It is not only among the younger generation but among their elders, as well, that this fault has become more common. Little by little It has growm until it has become a thing to be considered as a serious threat. For the bulwark of a law-abiding nation is reverence of the law, and only through it can I a nation prosper. i, A little more thought in this re- j ' spect—for oftentimes violations are ' I the result of thoughtlessness; a little more consideration for the rights of others, will go a long way toward inculcating revences in the i hearts of all of us, as it was mani-, ; fest in the days gone by.

At last the fateful day came. Lightning swift and terrible played about the summit of Mount Sinai while thunder crashed and great trumpetings announcing the coming of Jehovah. An earthquake shook the mount and twice, at the command of Jehovah, Moses retraced his steps to warn the watchers in the valley below not to pass the barricade. Then, alone he ascended into the cloud to receive the message.

While the topmost peak of Sinai was hidden in thick smoke clouds. Moses drew near to Jehovah in the midst of awful manifestations of Deity and 'received the ten commandments written on two stone tablets. For forty days he remained on the mount, communing with Jehovah and receiving from ihm directions for the care of his peopl( and promisses of what the future was to bring them.
