CO\TE<T.-I.ast lesson closed with
JehoiaChim on the throne of Judah un-
der the condemnation OF the Almighty
as uttered by jeremiah. A few years
later he was put to death by Nehu-
chadnCzZar King of Babylon who cap
turcd Jerusalem and made JCchonilh,
then eighteen years of age, vassal king.
Under this young man the Egyptian
party came into power and sought an
alliance by which to deliver themselves
from the Babylonans, but i'm three
months NebuchadneZzar returned in
vested the city, and Jechoniah prudent-
ly surrendered. All the princes and
officers, the mighty men of the coun-
Try, and the skilled artisans were car
ried away to Babylon, leaving but the
poorest sort of people. Among the cap
tives was Ezekiel, who had not yet To-
ceived his prophetic commission. At
the same time all the treasures Of the
temple and palace were carried off,
and the golden vessels of the Sanctu-
AIRY were cut to pieces over the rem.
nant of the people Mattaniahsvas made
king under the rev name of Zndeliiah.
N.-Nebuchadne2zar was
very lcnient with Jerusalem. Three
times he refraned from the utter de-
structiCn of the city. In all probability
he had received the first of these great
revelations of Jehovah's power and
majesty which were made to him
through Daniel (B. G.. 603D Ezekiel
expressly states that Judah was made
base that 1t might keep the covenant
tEzck., Xvii:13-14l Eut all this was
lost upcn Zedekiah. who failed to un-
derstand the moderation of the Paby-
lonian king and the purpose of Jeho.
Nah. During all the time of his reign,
a period of eleven years. he was a
rebel oversees | to 81 He disobeved
God. wrought evil in His sight as .Je-
hoiakim he'd done, and at the SANE
! time he endeaVored to cast off the for
! eign yoke, placed upon him and his
! people for their chaStisement and cor
rectiOn. 1t was the old story repeated.
/ \ man in authority with a specific
| mission ignored his obligation. violated
his trust and arraved himself apains :
| the Ruler Of nations.
SlEGE.-This conduct of Zedekiah a;
| length became intolcrablc 1t was not
| only source of annoyance and of fl
nancial loss but it imperlled the Baby
| lonian power on all the western from
| tier. Syria and Egypt might at any
| time use Zedekiah 10 their advantage
! and advance eastward to attack other
! possessions. Besides, the fOrhearancC
| Of God, by which Nebuchadnez2ur ha ]
| evidently been mercifully restrained
| was exhausted. At last when Il con-
| spiraCy was ripe for open revolt, Nebu-
| chadncz2dr came against Jerusalem
| with his whole army Nerse - and
! built forts round about. He brought
| with him the Vassal kings of his EN-
| pire. Of all the nations adjoining, the
! AmmOnites, MOabites, EdumiteS anC
! others, who came uu gladly to aVcngC
! the Cuarrels of a thousand years. All
| the fortified cities except Lachish and
| A2ekah had been taken, and this strong
| force indicates that Jerusalem was wei
