Oh. the ear. the God honored ear
grooved with divine sculpture and
poised with divine gracefulness and
upholstered with curtains of divine
embroidery. and corridored with di-
vine carpentery, and pillarcd with di-
vine architecture, and chiselcd in bone
of divine masonry. and conquered by
professions of divine marshaling. The
ear! \ perpetual point of interroga-
ton, asking How? a perpetual point
of apostrophe appealing to God. None
but God could plan it. None but God
could build it, None hut God could
work it. None but God could keep it.
None but God could understand it,
None but God could explain it. Oh,
the wonders of the human ear.
How surprisingly sacred the human
ear. You had better be careful how
| YOU let the sound of blasphemy or I'M
cleanness step into that holy of holies.
The Bible says that in the ancient
temple the priest was set apart by the
putting of the blood of a ram ON the tip
of the ear, the right ear of the priest
But, my friends. we need ali of us to
have the sacred touch of ordination on
the hanging lobe of both ears and on the
arches of the ears. on the eustachian of
tube the ear. on the mastoid cells of the
ear. on the tympanic cavity of the ear,
and on every thing from the outside
! rim of the outside ear into the point
where the sound steps off the auditory
nerve and rolls on down into the I'M
fathomable depths of the immortal
soul. The Bible speaks of dull ears, "
and of ''uncircumsized ears and of
Etching ears" and of ''rebellous ears,
and of open ears" and of those who
have all the organs of hearing and yet
who seem to he deaf, for it cries to
them: He that hath ears to hear let
him hear"
To show how much Christ thought of
the human ear, lie one day met n man
who was deaf, came up to him. and put
finger of the right hand into the ORR
flee of the left ear of the patient, and
agitated the tympanum, and startled
the bonclets, and with voice that
rang clear through into the mans soul
cried: ''Ephphatha." and the poly
phoid growths gave way, and the in
famed auricle cooled off, and that man
who had not heard Il sound for many
years that night heard the wash of the
waves of Calico against the limestone
shelving.
To show how much Christ thought of
the human ear, when the apostle Peter
got mad and with one slash of his
sword dropped the ear of Malchus into
the dust, Christ created new eXter-
nal ear for Malchus, corresponding
with the middle ear and the internal
ear that no sword could clip away.
And to show what God thinks of the
ear we are informed of the fact that in
the millennial June which shall rose
ate all the earth, the ears of the deaf
will be unstopped, all the vascular
growths gone-all reformation of the
listening organ cured, corrected,
changed. Every being on earth will
have hearing apparatus as God knows
how to make it, and all ears will be
ready for that great symphony in
which all the musical instruments of
the earth shall play the accompani-
ment, nations of earth and empires of
Heaven mingling their voices. together
with the deep bass of the sea, and the
alto of the woods, and the tenor of
