was compelled to leave home because
OF Esau's anger. During his first
night away from home Jacob had the
wonderful dream, with the vision Of

cending and descending on II. God
there renews his promise made to

must be careful how we apply the les

has made many things different for

Deut. IA. 22-29. The command OF
God is that his people should set aside
a tenth of all the increase of their
farms, both of their crops and of
their livestock, and eat It at the tenn
pie as a kind Of thank Offering to
God for what he had done for them.
If they lived so far away from the
temple that they could not carry all
the store of edibles with them, they
were to sell 1t, and with the money 20
to the temple and buy all they needed
for a feast before God and eat 1t.
Hospitality is also commanded. they
must share the feast with the Lev
ties, the orphans, and the foreigners
who lived with them But every
third year 1t was different. Instead
of eating the food themselves they
were to make feast for the Levites,
foreigners, orphans, and widows
among them, and the blessing of the
Lord would come upon them because
of their hospitality.
Deut. &c. 12-15.. This is but a rene.
ution OF the last part of the previous
command, but to it there is added a
prayer which was to be made by the
hosts on this occasion. This PRAYER
is declaration that the command of
God has been carried out. and con.
cludes by asking his blessing upon
them because OF their obedience.
