• By the oaks of Illantre. The trees re-
ferred to were more probably tere-
binths, or bue-pentine trees: Where
these trees ere allowed to have their
full growth they attain it height of
thirty to forty feet, with talkie and
dark foliage which offers a grateful
ahade in the hot estuaries. days. There,
near alebrou, Abe -ahem had pitched Ms
tent and had built an altar for wor-
ship, '
18:18. Here, the Lord appeared
to him but he aid not a.t first recog-
nize his heavenly visitor.
He looked and lo, three men. He
bad' not seen them approaele but
though surprised, he ran to offer them
the ready and generous hospitality of
the East, His bowing low before them
was by way of courteous salutation.
The very ancient Samaritan, Hebrew
text has probably preserved the true
reading in verse 3, "My lord, if now
I have found favor in your seght, pass
not away, -I Ray you, ,from your ser-
vant." If, however, the rendering ady
lord is correct, he must have recegzue-
ed one of the three— as superior ni
rank or dignity to the others, and so
addressed himself, to him.
"Abraham's offer of hospitable wel-
come is said to be it faithful repre-
sentation of the reception or a traveler
by an Eastern Sheik (or chieftain).
Here we have its various aspects of
(1) the courteous greeteng; (2) the
feet washing; (3) the repast and per-
sonal atteudance by the host; (4) the
escort on the road at departure"'
(Ryle). Wheae sandals, not shoes,
were worn, the washing of the feet
was necessaly both for cleanliness and
comfort. Then eeated, on the ground
under the tree the guests were ready
to partake of thie food which was
offered them. The invitation of the
host, Comfort ye yew heart, was an
invitation to refresh and strengthen
thernselves with the food (compare
judges 19: 578 and Ps. 104: 15).
lroPasmuelt as ye have come. Abra-
ham means to eay, "Since you have
done nre the honor to come to me."
The Three Measures would be about
a. bushel and represented quite a large
baking. Meat vras rarely eaten by the
nomadic tent -dwellers, and the killing
of a calf was meant to do special
honor to the guests. The butter was
ralac-curds, the milk, the flesh milk a
sheep or goats. The cakes were baked
on fiat stones either in a clay oven, or
in the hot -ashes of the fireplace. And
thus with bountiful hospitality, Abra-
ham and Sarah "entertained *noels
unawares." Sarah, of course, with
true Oriental modeety, did not show
heeself to the guests, but was listen-
ing in the tenit door to all. that was
said. And so she' heard the promiee
of it son hi her old age, and laughed
(compare 17:6). And this is told to
explain the manse Isaac, which in Ile -
brew means "He laughs."
II. GOD TALKS WITX AsuAHAivf, 16-19.
Now it appears to' Abraharn that
through the lipe of one of these
strange guests the Lord is speaking to
him. Strange as the promise is, there
is with it the assuring question, "Is
anything too hard - for the Lord?"
Compare Jeremiah, 32.:17.
Shall I hide from. Abraham that
which 1 do? He proposess to reveal to
Abraham the doom of the wicked
cities, and this becauee of his eornfi-
dance in him and his covenant prom-
ise to him. There is the recognition
that to men of faith mue,h is revealed
whieh ie hidden from others. "The
secret of the Lord is with them, that
fear him." "Surely the Lord God will
do nothing but he revealeth his secret
to his pervants, the prophets."
All the )tations. Compare eh. 12:8.
This is involved in the covenant prom-

Som.s folks do not this* of honey as

Naturally, these women had to buy

also sold a number of these rairnec-
