"Thcy Shau Build Houses"
At the Zionist executive council
held February Is, l92o, at London,
, Dr. Ruppiu In the debate proposed
the foundation Of large society
which should begin 10 build houses
for workers as rapidly as Ionhle.
o And even now In parts Of Palestine
houses are rapidly undergoing corr
structiun Tor the benefit uf the con-
stant flow of Jewish population re
turning to the land. Again We find
. ihat this * clearly In fulullmcnt ~
prophecy written long ago Tor the
D purpose of encouraging the Jcws to-
, nave faith in the promises OF TN
, Lord. Pho houses now built are not
: In the interest Of prufitccrs, nor Viii
. jhc owners hc permitted to uppress
, ! those who live In them. but the
!, owners shall live Ia them AZ their
+ own homes as the prophet OF the
. Lord forctold. They shall build
2 houses, and inhabit them, and they
: shall plant vineyards, and eat the
Il fruit of them. They shall not huiln
r and another inhabit; they shall not
pant, and another cat; for as the
A days OF "A tree are the days of my
= people. and mine elect, shall Ions
enjoy the work Of their hands thcy
shall not labor In vain, nor bring
forth for trouble, for they are IN,
= seed OF the blessed of the Lord, and
d their offspring with them. '--lsial

a Thus the testimony definitely cs
Il tahlishcs the fact that Gods favor
l. has returned 20 the jew, that the
.c parallel ia fulfilled; that the fl
{ tree Is putting forth its leaves,
n curdlng to the promise all of whicl
Y, Jesus said would take place at th'
r. end of the world.
" Events OF Noah's Day.
