• Golden Text, Matt. 5. 4:
• Hang determined to obey the
-command of .fehdvah and return 'to
Egypt, Moses Is further instriected
ati to how he ehall proceed io deed-
ingevvith Pharaoh in order -to secure
his consent to the., departure of the
Hebrews from Egypt. While Moes
-is-still on his way his brother Aaron
is divinely commanded to leave Gos-
hen and pooceed inte. the wilder-
ness to meet Knees, and to aaaist
him in his momentous undertaking.
Somewhere in the desert east of
Egypt the brothers meet and return
together into Egypt, where, first of
all, they summon the elders of Is-
rael to a confererme and fshoev them
the eigna by which Jehovah had set
his seal of indorsement upon their
errand.
Verse 1. Afterward--Folloeving
the meeting of Memee and Aaron
With the elders of Israel, they pro-
ceed . immediately to present their
request to Pharaoh in person, mak--
ing it very plain to the king that
they have come in thee name of Je-
hovah, the God of Israel. •
Let my people- . . . hold. a
feast unto me in the wilderness -
They do 'not inmeediately present
their demand for the entire liber-
ation of' the Israelites from hotel -
age, but proceed •th test the king's
temper and attitude toward the Is-
raelites by a much more modest re-
quest -that for permission to make
a short religious pilgrimage and
offer sacrifices to Jehovah juet be-
yond the borders of Egypt,
2. Who is Jehovah 7 - Pharaoh
feigns ignorance eoncerning any
other gods than his own, and asks,
not foe information, but in utter
contempt, concerning the God in
whoee name they venture to ask a
favor Of him.
3. The God of tho Hebrews -
Even the Hebrews themselves bad
not yet risen to the 'exalted con-
ception of Jehovah as the one and
only true God over all nations and
peoples, His claims upon his own
people aro here set over against
the claims which other gods might
have upon other peoples,
4. Wherefore de yo . . loose
the people" from their works 7 -The
king dismiases 'their petition with-
out even an answee and abruptly

life we cannot do better than take
up some philoeephy- of pessimism
eaentd 0, uareeceeipvti:geeibteraity.ittes tfheceeteveaklueei
seeing just hew bad it reedy is. I
personally believe that the cosmic
order, eepecially on its human side,
ie so beneficent that there can be
formulated no hiterpretation of its
phenomena which does not take on,
some semblance of the divine reality
which it is purposed to deseribe.
Take, for exaMple, the verse from
°riser's "Ruba,iyat," which I have
selected for my text. Here <10 we
have the crowning expreseion of the
cynical philosophy of life which is
expounded in this strangely attrac-
tive poem.of the great Persian, Thie
world, we are told, is a vest chess,
board on which the "Master' of the
Show" is
Playing His Gante of Destiny.
Men and women are the pieces with
which the movements of the game
are maeleed and its progress indi-
cated. Most of us are pawns, some
knights and bishops, here and there
a castle or a queen. But, high or
low, great or small, it makes no dif-
ference. We are simply moved
helplesely- as the necessities of the
genie may dictitlo at the moment,
and sooner or later are swept off
1tehied.h,oard and "back in the closet
Now, it would seem as though
there could be no more hope-

Now, „what is there'so terrible in

this 7 We may like the fi,gure of the,
chess game or we may not. That
is a non-eseential detail, What is
vital is the idea, that there is a God
in. this universe who is trying to
work ont some mighty plan, anel
that He is using you and me as the
means toy- the
Achieving of 11is l'urposes.
Take Omar at his word-crede, in-
adequate, vulgar as it may be -and
what nobler fate can we ask than
to be used as pieces in a game which
„ God finds it worth while to play?
How better can We be spent than
by being swept from tbe board and
laid back ,in the closet at the very
moment when such a sacrifice means
perhaps the winning of the game?
What greater honor than to be used
by God as He thinks beet'?" A child
seeeams for help in 4 flaming tene-
ment, and the happiest fireman of
them all is he who is picked to
stake his life on the slim chance of
rescue, A reins explodes and the
miners, above ground figh't for the
privilege of entering the shaft to
save their comrades. A soldier is
needed to carry a dangerous ven-
ture into the line of the enemy,
and every man in the regiment
steps in answer to the call for vol-
unteers. Here is life at its very ,
best. But if such is the case in our
relations with men; why is not the
same thing true, only on an infin-
itely grander scale, in our relations
