PROSPEROUS CITY OF EAST
Shechem, or Nablus, as 1t Is Now
Called, Site of Impressive Scenes
in Biblical History.

A prosperous Oriental city nestled
In fertile valley between two noun
tains and surrounded by gardens and
olive groves, Shechem or Nablus, as
1t is now called, occupies the site of
some of the most impressive scenes In
Bible history, says the Christian Her
aid. Here Abraham pitched his tent
and made the first stopping place in
his migration to the country of which
the Lord said: unto thy seed will
give this land" Here Joseph divided
the Israelites into two hosts, one OF
which encamped on the slope of Mount
Ebal on the north and the other on the
slope of Mount Gerizim on the south,
while the Levites read the law of
Moses which was to be the constitution
of the infant nation. Shechem seems to
have been a sort of capital for the
Hebrew nation even after David had
established his residence at Jerusalem.
as we read in / Kings II that all Israel
assembled at Shechem to crown Reho-
boam. The separatist elements of the
nation sought to legitimatize their acts
by making Shechem temporary cap
ital, although the residence of the
northern kings was established at a
point about six miles northwest and
called Samaria.
Shechem is nowhere mentioned hy
name in the New Testament, though
either it or suburb appears in John
% under the name of Sychar; and
it was here, at Jacobs well, that the
Samaritan woman met Christ and first
heard the message of his universal Cos
pei. Jacobs well is still pointed out
and is almost the only undisputed land
mark of our Lords earthly life. The
city now contains about 25,000 inhabit-
ants. Nablus contains a small colony
of about 200 persons, who claim TO be
the descendants of the Israelites of
the northern kingdom. They accept
only the five books of Moses as being
of divine authority and hold Mount
Gerizim to be the seat of their reli-
gion, instead OF Jerusalem.
