rur FEAST of WEEKS.

In accordance TO the Biblical command
Of Deuteronomy 10. Israel will on this day

anniversary OF. the giving OF the divine

the fest of weeks because forty nine Gays
after Israel was redeemed from slavery aud
superstition, o sacred law Was given them

legends ought to be remembered on tnls
day: The children Of Ishmaei were asked
10 accept the law. "What does IL contain?"
ihey asked. Thou shalt rot steal, F" was the
answer. "How can we then eccept itf' they
returned, when thus our forefather blessed
us, "Tby hand shall be against, every man. y
The children OF Esau were asked to accept
the law, and they also enquired, what
does IL coptalp?n "Thou shalt not kill, !"
was the answer. 1--WE cannot accept It,,
Their" said they, "ior thus did our father
Isaac bless us, "By the sword shalt thou
live" When at last Israel was asked to
acce pt the law, the people answered, 1--WE
will do and ehey.p In accordance TO this
promise IsraeE alt over the globe will OBJ
serve the same, BY offering. thanksgiving
unto the Lord God OF the universe. =,
