INTRODUCTION.
We have now our last lesson in the book Of
job
The book may be divided into FIVE parts:
]. Chapters and z. Satans challenge.
III. Chapters 8 to 81, Job, Eliphaz, Bildad,
and Zophar
III. Chapters 80 to 81 Job and Elihu.
". Chapters 80 to AZ God in whirlwind.
V. Chapter ~ III Conclusion.
Job was very wealthy. We see in what his
wealth consisted. He had 1000 sheep, 5000
camels. 500 yoke of oxen, 500 she asses, and
great household that is to say, probably
large number of servants as, 1O)
When the story opened he had wife, seven
sons and three daughters. He was in excellent
health. Then came disaster. His children
were killed, his property was destroyed. Then
followed personal affiiction in the form of a
most terrible and disgusting disease.
Some friends Of Job hear OF his unfortunate
condition. They visit with a view OF comfort
ing him. We have account in chapters 5 to 81,
inclusive There are three rounds OF discus
sion, in each of which each of the four speaks
in succession, except in the third round, when
we have no speech from Zophar.
Round 1st, chapters 3-14.
Round I'd. chapters 1921.
Round Sd, chapters 22-31.

idea of the book of Job, the figures represent

WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.-Ths first anthori-

forcement Of the sixth section of the so
called Geary act is without foundation,
