l., While we now turn back from the
life aud work of the Lord Jesus. as revealed
10 US in the gospels, to the story Of the
Lords dealings with Israel on the way to
the promised land, we are learning OF the
same Lord whose goings forth have been
from of old, from the days OF eternity (,iie.
v, 2, margin). IL was not because Of any
worthiness in them. but only because OF
His own faithfulness and His promise to
Abraham that He brought them out of
Egypt (Deut. vii, Z, s; Gen. XIV, Is. I'D. 1t
WAS now the third month since they had
been redeemed from the bondage of Egypt.
They had come TO Mount Sinai. and the
Lord had offered to make them peculiar
treasure unto Himself above all people.
kingdom Of priests, holy nation, il only
they would obey His voice. This they
readily promised to do. and now We
see them gathered about Mount Sinai,
the mountain quaking greatly and COW
cred with fire and smoke, out of the
midst of which God speaks the words Of
our lesson to the people. See chapter xix
and Deut. v, 4. -, "a. %. 1t was a day. in
this respect, unlike any before or since in
the history Of this world. lie first reminds
them tn; their redemption from Egypt
was wholly His doing without any help of
theirs, for salvation is OF the Lord Jonah

soul TO keep His commandments. The only
command to the unsaved is TO believe on

ourselves. Or as IL is in Rom. xiii. 10.
"I,oye is the fulfilling of the law This
| fifth command is spoken of in Eph. vi, 9, as
1.-The first commandment with promise"
/ Next to God we are to honor our parents,
and curse is pronounced upon such as do
otherwise (Deut. xvii. 10; Prov. 80, 10.
| 10. Thou shalt not kill" In our Lords
commentary on this in Math v, 81, % He
teaches that anger lies at the root OF muir
der. and in John hi, Is, it is written that
she that hatch his brother is a murderer
referring back to the story of Cain and
Abel. Not only are we forbidden to hate
| any one, but we are forbidden to speak evil
i or even imagine evil against another
| fJames iv, IL, Zech vii, 10; viii, III.
/ A. Thou shalt not commit adultery"
1 That this command reaches not only to the
/ sinful act. but is broken by even sinful
/ Thought. ls cirar from our LORD comment
upon it in Math, V, 81, 2s. Another aspect
of it is found in Jas. w. 4, where we are told
| that to love or be friend Of the world
that hates God is in His sight form OF
adultery Let us pray:
w,sh Lord and ,,r,fv INV hear.
And make It clean in every mart
And when It's clean, Lord keep II, too,
| For that is more than can do,
