Scripture Authority-Book Of Ezra
especially chapter eight.
Ezra's Great Reform.-The great dis
tinctive mission which Ezra performed on
his second visit to Jerusalem was the
breaking UP OF the promiscuous marriages
with the heather peoples about, and
which were in direct violation of the Mo-
sale law, and threatened the very exist
ence Of the Jewish nation. His first step
was to enforce separation from their
wives upon all who had made heather
marriages, In which number were inciu-
ded many priests and Levites. as well as
other Israelites, the list of the chief Of
tenders being given In the last chapter
of the book. All this was effected In 1T
tie more than six months after his arriv-
al at Jerusalem. showing the energy and
the intense earnestness of the man. With
the detailed account OF this important re-
form, Exra's autobiography ends abrupt
Iy, and we hear nothing more of him TILL
Is years afterward, in the twentieth year
of Artnxerxss. we find him again at
Jerusalem with Nehemiah. the Tirshatha.
As EZRA II not mentioned after Nehemi-
abs departure for Babylon In the thirty
second year of Artaxerxes. and as every
thing fell into confusion during Nehemi-
abs absence. It is not unlikely that Ezra
may have died or returned to Babylon
before that year.

THE STORY.

IARIB was face to face with the
j crisis of his life. AS he stood
out there under the stars he did not
know which way to turn. He feared
to go home and break the news, and
he knew he could not go back on the
pledge which he had made that even
ing, as he had stood before the altar
while the smoke of the sacrifice was
ascending to heaven.
1t seemed like dream. and yet he
knew It was all only too true. He had
never felt quite at ease since be had
taken to wife the daughter Of the rich
Gentle merchant, and when Ezra the
scribe had pointed out Gods law. the
awfulness Of his sin had swept over
him. He, priest and one Of the lead
ers among the people. had violated the
law Of Moses and the sanctfty of Gods
service by his marriage to d heather
woman. and In ths'remorse OF the mo-
nent. shsre;hadv been but one thought,

sgRMoNETrE.

In order that we may under
stand the seriousness Of the con-
dltIons which had arisen at Je-
rusalem we must remember that
the marriage Of the Jews to the
Gentiles was strictly forbidden
by the Mosaic law (Deut. 7:2, 81,
and that only the lower classes
were guilty In this matter, but
the practice was shared In by
many OF the priests and the le-
vltes, 40 we'll as leading men
Of the city. This great irresu-
iarity would inevitably bring
many evils In Its train; II would
encourage and increase idoIatry,
as we'll as break down the bar
riers Of distinction which, for
Important purposes, God had
raised between the Israelites and
all other people. Ezra foresaw
these dangerous consequences;
but was overwhelmed with
sense Of the difficulty Of correct
ina the evil, when matrimonial
alliances had been formed, fam
lilies reared, affections engaged,
and important interests estab-
Iished.
And the first thing that Ezra
did In the face Of that awful sin
and great difficulty was to pray.
He prayed at the time Of the
evening sacrifice when the peo-
pie would be gathered together
for worship, and he prayed 90 IN
the Spirit that God moved on
the hearts Of the people, and
some Of the more penitent
Of the leaders, realizing that there
was but one course to pursue In
dealing with evil, suggested that
they put away the Gentle wives.
That 10 the only sure, safe way
to deal with any sin. II may be
like cutting the heart In two; II
may mean giving up all that life
seems to hold dear, but II u Is
the thing that 10 standing be-
tween the soul and God II 10 the
thing which much be cut out.
Desperate diseases require des-
perate remedies, and while In
this case II seemed like q repu-
djotIon Of solemn obligations,
still Il must be remembered that
Gods law came first, and that
no human obligation could pos
silly come before the obligation
to God. This was peculiarly 20
with the Jewish nation, for upon
tho keeping Of the nation pure
depended the coming Of Christ
himself. Personal purity not
only involves the present but fu-
ture generations.
The incident before us sug-
qests two New Testament ad-
monItions: "Be ye not unequaIly
yoked together with unbellevers;
for what, Fellowship hath right
eousness with unrighteousness?"
and this: Wherefore come out
from among them, and be ye sep
arate. eaIth the Lord, and touch
not the uncIean thing; and !
will receive you"

as 1t is, though. Pare and core your
apples and boil them in the sugar and

get thick. Now put your rice on q

around apples and fill the cores with
raspberry or currant jam, or any kind
you may like.
