tremendous temptations and with
serious moral lapses. David, it
should be remembered, besides being
man of blood and an adulterer
and murderer. In fact his adul-
terry led to murder, for having
wronged Uriah he sent that valiant
man to his death under the most
atrocious circumstances.
Show Honesty Of Scriptures
We must not, in justice to the Old
Testament narrative and the proper
study of the Bible, neglect these ter
rible facts and indictments that are
recorded against David. Is it not a
profound tribute to the high integ-
rity of the Scriptures that they
should record with such impartial
ity the evil deeds of David as well
as the good things that were in him?
On the other hand, we should not
allow even the foul sins of David to
blind our eyes to the good that was
in him. If there is one thing that
stands out very strongly and clearly
from the records of his life, it is this
that even an adulterer and muir
derer may still have strongly marked
upon his soul the image of his Gre
ator and may have deep down in his
heart, beneath his temptations and
his falls, the appreciation of good
and the aspiration for the higher
life.
Lesson in David's Life
The study of the life of David is
calculated to produce in men rare
spirit of discernment in their quest
of good and it is in the power to see
the good even in the hearts of mer
who seem wicked that we attain
most nearly to the vision of Christ
Even concerning those who cruel
fled Him Jesus said, Father forgive
them; for they know not what they
do"
Our lesson brings David before us
in the attractive quality of his youth
ruddy, and physically very beauti-
full. 1t is well that we grasp this
picture as the necessary starting
point in the study of a varied life
strangely full of intense contrasts:
Future lessons tell the story OF
David's development, both in good
and in evil ways.

BY WIN. E. GN.ROY. D. n

Editor of the Congregationalist
Out of the failure of Saul and the
tragic suicide of a man who came
to the kingly leadership in Israel
under most favorable circumstances
but who went down to defeat
through lack of moral discipline and
through the insidious power OF jeal-
ousy, comes another kingly figure
whose career also was to be char
acterized by deep and tragic sins,
but in whom, in contrast with Saul,
the finer elements ultimately tri-
unphed.
David, whom in our lesson Sam
uel is represented as Amounting king
of Israel, has become, through the
Hebrew scriptures world figure OF
traditional greatness and interest.
Sweet Singer Of Israel
The Psalms, the beautiful and in
some respects terrible poetry of Is
Id6l, dIS dSSOCldUCQ WILL 41Ao 4leA11AS,
though probably only limited num-
Der of these were actually psalms of
David. He is known as the "sweet
singer of Israel" though there are
psalms that are terrible in their
wrath and grandeur and that reflect
the awful, rather than the sweet and
tender and beautiful.
This varied character Of the
Psalms is representative of the
strang contrasts in David himself.
The "sweet singer of Israel" was a
man Of war, so bloody in his career
aud achievements that, according to
the records of the Old Testament, he
was not permitted to fulfill the aspi-
rations that he had for the building
of the temple, and passed on that
great achievement to his son Solo
mon.
David stands as a great representa-
tive figure in human life, and in
the records of that life we can dis
Germ great deal that is necessary
for a well balanced judgment con-
corning humanity. David represents
the way in which the highest and
best aspirations of men have been
oftentimes associated with the most
