Restoring Worship.

They commenced their residence at
Jerusalem by generous gifts to God S
house and rebuilding the altar in its
place upon the crest of Mount Moriah.
The altar was to Judaism what the cross
is to Christianity. Both for and for
in, religion is the dark mysterYM sac
rif1ce. The first work of IN temple
builders was to set up the altar upon its
old foundations In the seventh month
all the people united as one man, gath
cred on the ste of the old temple to re-
store the essential institutions of their
faith. They would not wait until the tenn
pie was completed to reinstitute the
great festivals commanded by Moses. the
man of God. Our Jewish friends have
within the past few weeks been celebrat-
ing the same feasts that the returning
exiles observed in Jerusalem. They did
not adopt any new ritual. when. recognize
ing their covenant to Jehovah and his
law, they renewed the daily burnt offer
ings. They observed the old way as
recorded in the law. They commenced
their new life determined to do the will
of God. They never fell again into idola-
try. They started right. Their fathers
when they entered the land, neglected to
obey God, by allowing the heather to re-
main as neighbors This proved their UNI
dong. because it led to idOlatry. Our
first care in life should be marked by the
same spirit of loyalty to God and His
service. If we were all true to Him,
many family altar would be restored
and covenants renewed.
The revival of the altar and other re-
igious institutions helped them to carry
out the decree of Cyrus to rebuild the
temple. Before the foundation of the
second temple could be laid the site must
be cleared and preparations made for the
construction of the temple. Contracts
for the necessary material must be made
Provision for the proper care of all the
workmen be provided. There was plenty
of stone among the ruins near the city,
but all the wood had to be imported The
first temple was built by King Solomon,
but the second was erected by the people

Rebuilding the Temple.

In the following spring, in the second
year of Cyrus. they commenced operations
for the rebuilding of the temple. At Il
convocation of the people, who cheer
fully contributed the first fruits Of their
harvest toward the building fund, the
work was started. They not only put
the worship of God first, but every one
willingly gave to God the fruits that had
rewarded his labor in the field They
made the new temple an expression of
their love. loyalty and labor.
They placed the few LeYites who had
come out of the captivity in charge Of
the construction to push forward the
work on the temple. 1t was a great day
when the foundations of the temple were
laid. The ceremony of the laying of the
corner stone was ushered in by an anti
phOna chorus that stirred the hearts Of
the people. Every great religious awak-
ening has been preceded by birth of
song. The singing of the priests, :prais-
ing and giving thanks unto Jehovah, say
ing one to another He is good, for
His loving kindness endureth for ever
toward Israel" expressed the feelings of
the masses, who recollected their past
trials and looked forward to the coming
triumphs and blessings. The trans
formation that had already taken place
in tho city was prophetic of the future.
God. who had sustained them in the
disaster Of the nations overthrow, the
despair of the exile and difficulties of the
homeward pilgrimage, was good and
worthy of all praise.
The old men who recalled the glory Of
the former temple did not expect that it
would be possible for the people in their
poverty to build one that would equal
the former temple They wept while
was heard. The cry of the weeping ones
could not be detected from the shout of
Joy because all were united in their love
