tain called Mizpah 'op"''
Watch Tower They came in consid-
cradle numbers, seeking God.
A Great Reformation Effected.
The Prophet Samuel put the matter
before the people distinctly, saying, "If
We do return to the Lord with all your
hearts, then put away the strange gods
and Ashtaroth from among you, and
prepare your hearts unto the Lord, and
serve Him only; and He will deliver
you out of the hand of the Philistines.'
He was warranted in telling them this
for Gods Covenant with them was
that if they would obey His Laws, and
be loyal to Him, He would guide their
interests to their highest welfare, but
that if they We're disobedient and dis
loyal, He would deliver them into the
hands of their enemies and punish
them Seven Times.
Baalim is the plural of -Baal-caretak-
er. The Israelites had been forewarn-
ed to keep themselves from idols to
such an extent that they might MOI
even make an image of Jehovah. But
all around were the C%anaanites, whom
they had not driven out of the land.
These Canaanites had Baal idols in
all their towns and wen in their
homes. as protective genii.
Ashtaroth is the plural of Ashcroft,
a female deity. known also as lshtar
and Astarte. Connected with her
worship were many licentious services
supposed to promote fertility-propaga-
ton of the human species. If SamuePs
work Influenced all Israel to put away
their gods and to worship and serve
Jehovah only, he accomplished much.
Such reformations do not come by
change. nor are they miraculous.
Samuel prayed for the people of Is
rael, who poured out water before the
Lord, tasted and confessed that they
had sinned against the Lord. This con
fession was appropriate when asking
the God whom they had offended to
receive them back into covenant rela-
tionship with Himself. The humility
necessary to such confession would be
profitable in their character building.
Israel Blessed by Samuel's Judgeship.
Samuel judged the children of Israel
in Mizpah'; he gave advice In respect
to their affairs-disputes, proper course
of conduct, etc. Thus the nation was
making q new start.
Meanwhile the PhilistineS, having
heard of the gathering, came against
them with an army. The ~Israelites had
come together for prayer; nevertheless
they were probably more or less arm
ed. But they felt quite u~nprepared to
meet the Philistines, and asked Sam
uel to cry to God, that He save them
from the Philistines. They were learn
ing to look for help in the right direc-
ton. This cry. coming after they had
vowed to be loyal to Jehovah, put them
into a very different attitude toward
Him from that of twenty years pre-
vious. when they called for the Ark to
lead them against the Philistines.
In response, the Prophet Samuel Of
fered to the Lord a lamb of the first
year. He knew not, but it was a type
