Colorful Drama Os Elisha And Naaman Bears Message Military Hero Who Was a taper Found It Hard to Accept Simplicity of Healing Plan—A Captive Maiden's Essentia) Part in a Famous Episode.

By WILLIAM T. ELLIS Kll«ha la hlllecl na the* leading man In thia Moon drama, hut a Ilttla girl and a soldier "steal the show." We are expectant of a review of the crowded, colorful life of the great Elijah's great dlaclple. when 10, there first comes on the stage a pompous Syrian general. Naaman He was high in favor with his king, because he had led armies to victory. His personal valor Is attested; and he had all that a successful hero cotHd dealre wealth, honors, authority. But n» was a leper. Ah. the "buta" that qualify life'a successes' Here is a famous Industrial leader, with wealth by the millions— "but" his only son is dissolute and worthless. Here Is a family with health and fine ideals —"but" stark poverty darkens their days. Here is a national leader with rare gifts — "but" he Is a slave of drink. Here is a talented youth of whom family and friends egpect much — "but" he is laiy and purpoaeless. There to a "but" after the name of almost every Naamgn. The moat loathsome of diseases clanked like a captive chain at every step the famous soldier took. The “but" was bigger than his palace, hia power, his possessions. Enter the Little Girl One at the by-products of Seaman's innumerable campaigns was the captives he took back to Syria Among the least of these was a little Hebrew maiden, who had beeh given to Naaman's wife as a personal servant With its usual brevity, the Scripture says nothing of the homesickness of the lass, or of the bitter tears that nightly wet bar pillow. Desolate indeed was her lot. as she served in the sumptuous boudoir of her wealthy mistress, her thoughts ever turning to her home in Israel. Thia little girt becomes the heroine of the drams , because she had a kindly, magnanimous spirit She rose above bltternesa and petty spite. Inatead of rejoicing over her alien master's affliction, she felt sorry for him. And In the intimacy of personal servant with mistress. she told of a wonderful prophet In Israel, who could heal even leprosy Her faith made a dent upon the proud woman’e consciousness. for her husband's affliction was her greatest sorrow So she repeated the servant's tale, and eventually It came to the ears of the king. Great events hinged upon the compassionate interest of this one little slave girl. Nobody ran foresee the consequences of a single word or act of kindness. This fearfilled and suffering old world sorely that Hebrew maidens spirit of good will. The King Speaks Blustering like Musmllnl. the king of Syria, confident In his authority, gave peremptory orders »s soon as be glimpsed this gleam of hope for his' favorite general. Prideful as a Japanese ultimatum, his letter to the king of Israel directed the latter to heal Naam/n. who bore the message. It was a typical utterance from a self-inflated autocrat The rich gifts which accompanied It did not lessen the consternation of the Hebrew court, which saw In the strange demand an eicuse for war. "Am I God. to kill and to make alive, that thia man doth send unto me to recover a man of his leprosy?" There were the makings of a grave "incident" In the proud letter of Syria's king Meanwhile. Naaman waited at the court of the Israelites, and was feted the while. A Prophet to the Rescue News travels fast tn court circles, and aoon Ellahn learned of the Syrian letter and of hie king's distress. "Let him come now to me." he said to the king, "and he shall know that there to a prophet In Israel." What royal might could not do lay within the province of a man of God. With a vlvd touch, the narrative pictures the arrival of Naaman at the door of the prophet's humble dwelling, hia horses and chariots and outriders attending him.

aha was not Impressed. He did not even deign to go out and apeak in person to hia visitor. Instead, he I sent word that the distinguished ' general should go down to tbn Jor'dan and bathe seven times. Cannot you hear the snort of in'dignation and contemptuous pride ; with which Naaman greeted the message He. the great warrior, to go down to Israel's muddy Jordan and Immerse himself! He had egported an elaborate ritual of healing. with hia own proud self the Important center of proceedings Inatead. he was bidden to go wash iin an unattractive stream Werw not the Abanah and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all , the waters of Israel? "8o he turned and wont away In a rage." Thus the world In Its pride has often , rejected the incredible simplicity ' of the Gospel's offer of salvation, i Yet there to no other way of soulhealing than God's way. The Warrior Leper Cleansed Hia retinue, however, had more sense than Naaman had shown In his affronted dignity They at last persuaded him to try the Israeli Ite's simple expedient. Ro. reluctantly. and muttering the while, , he went down and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan; and. j lo? his flesh became again as the , flesh of a little child. Naaman. with all hia arrogance, was still a gentleman: so he returned to render thanks to Elisha. . and to offer him rewards, which the prophet would not touch He had not only been cleansed of his disesse but hia spirit also had undergone a mighty spiritual transformatton. "Now I know that there to no God In all the earth, but in Israel." W’e may picture the Joy In i Syria when the healed general returned — and the pride and happiness of the little serving miss. A Man of Good Will Our lesson topic well names Elisha He was the prophet of helpfulness He lacked the sterner gifts of hia master Elijah. Not his to shut up the heavens and to wage battle with king His story to a succession of miracles of good will. Os course, he was a patriot, and cooperated with his king against Israel's enemies But he was definitely of the pastoral type meeting the individual needs of people. Not to know the colorful Elisha stories to to confess one's self Illiterate. It to Impossible to understand the frequent allusions in fine literature to the characters and event of these historical books of the Old Testament, unless one has become familiar with them And they are inherently more Interesting than moat of the tales that come from today's busy presses.
