Lesson III.—FouMh Quarter, Fer Oct. 18, 1908. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.

Text of the Lesson, II Sam. ix—Memory Verse, 7—Golden Text, Eph. Iv, 32—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. [Copyright, 1908,' by American Press Association.] In today’s lesson chapter we find the king showing the kindness of God to the poor and needy, and we read that the coming King shall Judge the poor of the people and save the children of the needy and shall break in pieces the oppressor (Ps. Ixxii, 4, 12-14). David did not forget his covenant with Jonathan and began to inquire if any were yet left of the house of Saul that he might show them kindness for Jonathan’s sake. Learning that there was a son of Jonathan who was lame on both feet, he sent and brought him into his presence, restored to him bis father’s possessions and had him dwell in Jerusalem and eat at his own table continually. This story of David and Mephibosheth, while literally true, is a wondrous picture of the kindness of God to sinners, “the kindness and love of Qod our Saviour toward man” (Tit. ill, 4). The same is seen in the story of the young man of Egypt in I Sam. xxx, in the vision of the filthy garments and the change of raiment of Zech. ill and In so many of the Old Testament stories, the whole of which, while pointing onward to the coming kingdom, might be called God’s picture book of redemption. The Lord says of Himself. “1 am a great King” (Mai. i, 14). . He Is not only King of the Jews, but King of kings and Lord of lords. All kings shall fall down before Him, and all nations shall serve Him (Matt, il, 2; Rev. xix, 10; Ps. Ixx, 11). All that He does He does royally as a king and for His great name’s sake. In Mephibosheth we see a picture of every sinner. His name signifies shame proceeding from the mouth and suggests the picture of the sinner in Rom. iii. 12-14. He was lame on both feet, and that Is the condition of all, for no one Is able to walk with God or of his own power take one step toward Him. The impotent man at Bethesda and the lame man at the temple gate (John v. Acts lii) are illustrations. He was lame through no fault of his own, for when tidings came of his father’s death his nurse picked him up to flee, and in her haste she let him fall, and he became lame (chapter iv, 4). When Adam fell the whole race fell in him (Rom. v. 12), and so we are by nature children of wrath (Eph. il, 3). He was at Lodabar (verse 4), which means a place of no pasture, and that Is surely the condition of all who are not in Christ, and of them the question might be asked. “Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread and your labor for that which satisfleth not?” (Isa. Iv, 1.) All who live at Lodebar shall thirst again (John iv). David sent to the place where he was and fetched him from thence. The Son of God came from heaven down to where we are. became one of us, sin excepted, and then bare our sins in His own body. Like the good Samaritan, He came to the helpless just w’here they were. He finds us in our lost condition and brings us to Himself, as He did Israel from Egypt (Ex. xix, 4). He suffered, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God (I Pet. iii, 18). The kindness of David broke Mephibosheth down, and he fell on his face and did reverence (verse 6), so the love and goodness of God when once seen work true penitence in the sinner’s heart and also give the saint a true view of himself (Rom. ii, 4; Job xlii, 5, G). Then comes the great word, “Fear not” (verse 7), as in Rev. i, 17, and like the “Be of good cheer” of Matt. ix. 2, and the welcome to the king’s table to eat bread continually. Contrast Lodebar. the place of no pasture, with the King's table and its bounty and the invitation. “Eat, O friends, drink—yea, drink abundantly, 0 beloved.” “Eat ye that which is good and let your soul delight itself in fatness” (Song v, 1; Isa. Iv, 2). Then think of the inheritance that becomes ours, lost in the first Adam, but more than fully restored in Christ (verse 0). 1 Pet. i, 3, 4; Eph. 1, 13, 14. Note the phrase “I have given” and remember Rom. vlii, 32, “With Him freely all things.” Think of the outcast from Lodebar dwelling in Jerusalem (city of peace) eating continually at the king’s table and yet continuing lame on both his feet (verse 13). We will never lose our lameness, our sinful nature, but the divine nature given us in Christ when He saves us may have control and the old be continually reckoned dead. When we are filled with thoughts of the King and His great love w T e will not be found contemplating our lame feet, much less speaking of them, as many do, from whom we are always hearing about their unworthiness, their weak faith, their lack of love and zeal and devotion. Rather let us be' telling of His salvation from day to day and be occupied with His loveliness, for He is altogether lovely. The devotion of Me phibosheth to David Is seen In his mourning for him all the time that he was absent because of Absalom’s rebellion and in his wanting no portion of the inheritance so long as David had returned in safety (chapter xix. 24, 30). When the love of Christ constraineth us after that fashion we shall not be found conformed to this world nor seeking any satisfaction from it
