MANY MODERN JONAHS AROUND Fail to Size Up Properly as Shown by Applications For Rich Charges WAR IN PALESTINE Country, as in Days of Scrip ture, Is Center of Whole Earth; New Crisis? . The name of Jonah is good for a smile in almost any company. The slang: phrase "He's a Jonah," is com mon among: myriads who do not know the first word of the story of the run away prophet. Other masses of peo ple merely have a dim notion that Jonah brought bad luck to a ship; was thrown overboard and Bwallowed by a whale, of which more anon. Now, by the choice of the Jonah story by the International I.esson Committee, there Is put squarely up to the millions of members of the Sunday school the realisation that there are modern preachers and teachers who are Jonahs In two senses. In that they encumber the gospel ship and run away from their divine mission and message. Pur posely or not, there are a host of Christians who are modern Jonahs in the first two phases of that prophet's experiences Thank God, there are also men who represent Jonah in the third and victorious stage of his work. The thing that is most wrong with our day is that our prophets haven't given us their uttermost message. They have declined to declare the whole counsel of God. They have put human comfort before divine commands. They have sought their own ease rather than served their divine mission. Let us admit it frank ly, that many of us have shrunk from the hard places in kingdom service. There are a score of applications for the pulpit of every prosperous church with a good salary which becomes va cant. but the difficult fields go un manned. What is this but the case of Jonah over again? Perhaps our present universal shake-up will be the big fish exper ience for our modern Jonahs. Out of the travail of the world's woe we may hope to see new prophets emerge. All great spirits are suffering heavi ness of heart because this "collapse of civilization" has come to pass while the church idled complacently along about petty concerns. To-day In Old Vinevali Nobody has yet attempted to ex plain why the currents of world war and of universal human interest are once again setting in toward Btble lands. Palestine is anew, as In the days of Scripture, the center of the whole earth. Military movements and diplomatic struggles converge on the scenes of the Bible story. Perhaps the great God ha* designed some new revelation of Himself in the ancient land of Abraham. Does this converg ence of events upon sacred soil por tend a new crisis for humanity? Cer tainly there Is a new dramatic rela tion betwen the daily newspapers and the inspired Scripture. A novelist could soarcely Imagine a more melodramatic situation than that now beheld in the exile of the Armenian survivors to the city of Mosul; for Mosul Is directly across the river from the ruins of Ninevah, and connected therewith by a bridge of boats. Women of Mosul do their laundering on the eastern banks of the Tigris and spread their clothes to dry beneath the ruined walls of the ancient capital of Assyria, the city of Jonah. This city, to which the Children of Israel were later driven, is now the destination of hunted and harried Armenian survivors. As these persecuted Christians in 1915 look upon the vast ruins of the once great city, even as I myself have stood upon the remains of Sen nacherib's palace and viewed them, will they recall the ancient proph ecies, and remember, that while God's Justice may seem slow, it never fails to run. Ninevah crumbled to dust is God's testimony that His word is sure, and that His people will be pre served. Where Jonah's Name Lives I found at Ninevah a startling thing. The great city—and its greatness may still be seen in the ruined walls trace able from the heights of the palace ruins—is now levelled to earth and un occupied. The only life in it is one little village, and this is called "Neby Yunis." which Is the Arabic for "Prophet Jonah." The village is built about a sacred mosque over the ruins of an ancient church which contains the reputed site of Jonah's tomb. The sheik of the mosque es corted me down to see Jonah's grave. It is poetic justice that after twenty eight centuries the name of Jouah should still persist on the site of his preaching; while that of Ninevah's kings is lost. This is not the place to go into the question of the historicity of the book of Jonah. Whether it be a literal record or an allegorical homily, as modern critics contend, its message is one and the same. No point of fact named in the story is lmpossi- j ble. That Whale Mountains of good paper have been spoiled by absurd dissertations on the point that a whale's mouth is not large enough to admit the body of a man, and that, therefore, Jonah could not have been swallowed by the whale. Well, who says he was? Certainly not the Book of Jonah. The translators of the King James' version did fall Into the error, in the one New Testament allusion to Jonah, of translating the Greek word "great sea monster" Into the biggest thing of which they had personal knowl edge, which was a whale; but the ori ginal books in both the Old ad New Testaments use the word "great sea monster."

For that mat ter, the Book says that God "pre pared' a great fish, which phrase in itself eliminates all difficulties for de vout souls who do not balk at miracles. It seems like a device of the evil one that the real message pf the Jonah story should be obscured by the figure of a whale, which has no business In the picture. Jonah, who was a mature man, a sort of court chaplin in the palace of Jeroboam, king of Israel, was call ed to a foreign mission, to preach repentence to Ninevah. Ho ran away from his duty and took ship for the West. When a storm arose, and the sailors began to consider who was responsible for the wrath of the gods, Johan's manhood reasserted itself, and he offered himself as a sacrifice to the waves. When the storm did not abate, he was thrown overboard) and found refuge for three days, or pnrts of three days, in a cavity—the word does not necessarily mean stom ach—of a great sea rrtonster. He was cast up on the shore that he had lnft. I have visited the shrine near Sldon which the Moslems maintain to mark the very spot where they say Jonah came ashore. This experience of stress taught Jonah his lesson. He went back to Israel, and thence overland to the Tigris and down the river—probably on a kelek, or goatskin raft, which is still the present fashion—until he reached Nlnevah, the then capital of the world. He had been disobedient to his first call, but so 'great is the patience of God, that He often gives men a second chance t< do their duty. When Jonah gave up his pride for obedience, he won a success in Nlnevah that makes a modern "Billy" Sunday revival seem small. What Ails Our Cities ? Like many a pastor of a downtown church, whose prosperous members I leaving, Jonah wanted to run away from a hard Job. There is scarce ly any other test of faith like that of a great city. It represents in our time the convergence of all moral and political and religious problems. The heart-lireaklnK difficulty of Christian i work which envisages a whole city, ■ is known only to those who are in the thick of the tight. Yet it is In I the greatest cities that the greatest . victories must be won for God. All profound students of the city problem perceive that religion is Its one hope of final solution. The mod -1 ern city task is not so easy as Jonah's; his work Is many sided, and ever tends to dissipate him from his primary task of preaching repentance. He has to think in large units, for parochialism Is a primary peril of city churches. Not all Chris tians have learned to weep over the city as their Master did. The more prevalent fashion is to move to the suburbs whea conditions 4frow un comfortable. Still the need abides, and those who dare to remain for the task are confronted with the de mand for new methods of presenting the old Message. Going to the Hard Places The Lesson Committee designates this as a foreign uxuision lesson. Ninevah Is to represent the need and call of the world outside Christen dom. Jonah has been termed the first foreign missionary. Dean Stan ley calls him "the first apostle to the Gentiles." What he was reluctant : to do, our own time has attempted more courageously, as notable meet- i ings this winter of the Laymen's Mis sionary Movement illustrate. We have dared to go up against heathendom ' with a victorious message of God's love. "Woe is me If I preach not the Gospel," has come to many men, ma ture as well as young. Only recently the rector of one of the most fash ionable churches In Philadelphia of fered himself to his mission boards for service in the Philippine Islands. As even Ninevah repented under Jonah's preaching, so also both the CASTORIA for Infantum! Children. Boars the ,/rrs, "T"* Till Kird You Have Always Bought of modern city and heathen lands are succumbing to the gospel message. The story of "Billy" Sunday's work In America, and George Sherwood Ed dy's work In Asia, are worth study ing in connection with the Jonah narrative. Great mass movement* towurd Christianity are undter way in India, especially, but also in Chin* and In Africa. "I may not stay to see the day When the great Saviour shall bear sway. And earth shall glitter In the ray That cometh from above; •But come It fast, or come it alow. 'Twill come at last, I surely know. And heaven and earth shall feel the glow,— And men shall call It Love." 15
