Baruch, The Scribe Leaaon for August 1, IM* BARUCH. whose name meant "blessed." was the grandson of Maaseiah, "governor of the city" under Josiah (Il Chronicles 34:8), and his father, Ner- ~ I lah. appears to have | been an official durI ing the reign of Jeholaktm He was a trusted friend of Jeremiah (Jeremiah 32; 6-15 and *3:5-8). Tradition holds that Baruch was carried to Babylon, where he wrote the apocryphal "Book of Baruch.” Dr. Nrvrlon and died In 57*. 8.C., twelve years after the fall of Jerusalem Our golden teat for this lesson is found In Psalms 119 105. ‘Thy word is a lamp unlo my feet, and light unto my path " * » • Ol lt BIBLE SSHTSHEN Jeremiah called Baruch, 1 the son of Neriah, and Baruch wrote from the nv-utb of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord, which he had spoken unto him. upon a roll of a book And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saymg, I am shut up; 1 cannot go into the house of the Lord. Therefore go thou, and read In the roll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of the Lord in the ears of the people in the Lord's house upon the fasting day; and also thou shall read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of the cities,’' Jeremiah 36:4-8 How did we get our Bible? Through this simple process of God speaking through his appointed prophet, and by the faithful work of men like Baruch who served as scribes. THIS SCRIBE Or LONG AGO IN the introductory paragraph I | sketched briefly the story of Baruch. He was a trained man. trusted and beloved This he had to be, else God would not have approved Jeremiah's selection of Baruch to copy what he waa saying for God And not only was he selected to write down what God was saying, through hi* prophet, but he was used to proclaim the word* of God to the people in the Lord'* ’ house. Baruch was amanuensis, reader and distributor of th* Bible —• distinguished role. Indeed Let us today be gladly ready to read th* Bible to other*, and to distribute and circulate the Scriptures wherev er w* may Here I pause to pay tribute to the American Bible Society and al) other*. Ineluding the Gideon*, who help to make the Bible known to all men everywhere • • • A MAN ON WHOM GOD COUNTED THUS w* see that Baruch was a man on whom God counted Hl* work was don* well, and we read that. "When they heard all th* word*, they were afraid both on* and other, and said unto Baruch. We will surely tell the king of all these words." Young people will do well to pon der this incident In the varied contact* of young Christiane in this modern day, we may ba used of the Hely Spirit in making known the words of God In counties* ways Thu*, like Barueh, you may be used of God to make known hi* will untr all mankind • * • BARUCH A COt RAGEOt H M RIBE THE full contest reveals the fact that Baiuch eahiblted courage as well as faithfulness in hit aerv ice a* scribe tn Jeremiah it was ; not an easy task Nor will it be easy to fill our posts a* courier* , of th* Good News But it was a ; rewarding eapenencc for Baruch j He served his day and generation i according to th* will of Gad Mr Henry Ford.
