81. Then we departed from the river
Ahava on the twelfth day of the first
month, to go unto Jerusalem This
was the final start for homeland. All
things We're ready. The caravan had
been properly organized and their way
was committed unto the Lord, with
fasting and prayer; and now they
started for Canaan, and the holy
house, and the holy fellowship of those
of like precious falkland the hand of
our God was upon us,-This is Ezzra's
way of expressing divine providence.
1t is as if he said, God prospered us
in the way, and had us under Ms spe-
cial care and guidance"-and he de-
livered us from the hand Of the enc
my,-We are not told who the enemy
was; and it is probable that the scribe
had no particular enemy in mind when
he wrote these words; but there were
enemies of Israel on all sides, and al
ways had been; and there always will
be in this infidel world until the mil
lennium. But no hand of an enemy
was laid upon them. And he has pro-
missed to keep His anointed, so that
Wicked One will not take or touch
them-and of such as lay in wait by
the way. Along that line of travel in
those days were hordes of robbers, ly-
ing in wait TO take caravans and rob
them of treasures. No doubt the word
was out that there was to be a large
emigrant train from Babylon to Jeru-
salem, and also 1t was at least sur
missed that In such a caravan there
would be plenty of loot. 1t could not
but be that there were bands amount
ing to small armies lying along the
road for this main chance. But God
delivered His people out of the hands
of such. How. we are not told. But it
seems clear that there was no human
hand used by Him for their deliver
ance. He had direct charge of those
who had. with fasting and prayer,
committed their way unto Him, trust
ing also in Him; and He brought 1t to
pass.
50. And we came to Jerusalem,-In
the previous verse we read of their de-
parture 'to go unto Jerusalem" and
here they came to Jerusalem. There
were hundreds of weary miles and
four long months between that depart
ure and that arrival; and probably
there We're some interesting events
along the way, but nothing is recorded
after the departure until the arrival
And here are the main things in our
journey TO the holy land on high: Cd
Set out. co Persevere. CD Get there.
No matter how hard or long or danger.

of the heavenly open to receive you

days. A breathing spell after weari-
some and dangerous journey. Rest
