more than any other literature lays
stress upon justice and judgment. 1t
is the chief buttress of the court. 1t
is the vademecum of the Judge.
The moral earnestness of true
prophet commands the respect of the
most ignoble. He never hesitates to
confront wickedness although it be in
high places. Jehu met Jehoshaphat.
There was a redeeming quality in
the kings moral obliquity. He made
no pretense at self-defense, extenua-
ton, or excuse of his wrong doing.
There is no literal record of repen-
lance, it is true, but this may be
safely inferred by his fresh devotion.
1t is really great mercy to be made
sensible of our faults, however pain
full and disagreeable it may be.
Truth faithfully spoken yields an
intrinsic force in its own right. Jehu's
words to Jehoshaphat could not fall
to earth.
A famous beauty broke her looking
glass because it showed the wrinkles
on her face. Ahab showed that spirit
when he said of Micaiah. Il hate him
because he always prophecies evil"
Arrant folly, that
Jehoshaphat's name is bright and
venerated-a worthy son of noble sire.
Good rulers are not able invariably
to give prosperous times. But it
does count for much whose hand is on
the helm of state. When the wicked
reign the people mourn.
God gave Judah prosperity. Not,
however, by miracle, but through
