Commentary.
1. "And It came to pass after this that
Absalom prepared him chariots nnd horses
uu hut men io run before him." Absalom
was the third son of Dr,l, born In Hebron,
and his mother was Miinoah, daughter of
,.hJ ,klnK ot Ooahiir (II 8am. ill.. 2, 8).
AbsaJotn signing "father of pea," but his
lire would rathr siii.gpt oue who was of
his father the devil (John vlll.. 41). necause
of the murder of his brother Amn m, Dnvld's
nrst born, he fled to the king of Oe-hur an I
was there throe years, but through the
p eadlngof the wise woman of lekon, em.
ployed by Jonb, hecamo back to Jerusalem
and dwelt two yenrs without rooonolllatloti
to his father, after which, through Joab's
intercesaion, the king became reconcile 1 to
him. saw him and klM.l him (chapter xlv.,
i. "And Absalom rose up enrlv and stood
beside the way of tho gat.-." the ex pres.
Ion "rose up early" signllles Bros.t earnest
ness and Is used many times in Jeremiah
concerning Ood's unwtarled earnest ness In
tirglti( Hm people to repent nnd turn to
Him. In Isa. v., 11, it Is used, as here, c in
coming the earnestness ot the wicked, for
here wo seo Absalom In tho tlnee of publlo
gatherings, kindly greeting tne people who
came to the king to have their wrongs right
ed and iooking to turn their hearts from
his father to himself. The aelf.ew.mng of
the nntural heart Is often seen In those who
eeU to adv.incn themselves, no matter wno
Is overthrown, but when this is somi In n son
against his own fatht-r then the devil Is
unity doing secinl work.
3, 4. "Absalom said, moreover, Oh, that I
were maileju lgo In the land." He speaks
of the Justice thut he would show If he were
made fudge In the land, but It should not
reipilre much penetration to see that n man
who would treat his own dither as unjustly
"s ho was now doing would not b hki-iv to
do Justly by any one unlf ss It might happen
to serve his own ou.is. I heard only this
week of a Senator who said that no poli
tician would take hold of a mitter without
considering how It might affect bis own po
litical prospect. It Is the world's way to
live unto oneself; It Is only by the Spirit of
Ood that we can deny soil nnd llveuntodo.l.
6,6. "So Absalom stolo the henrtsot tho
m j of Israel." There was not a liner look
li nau In all Israel (chapter xlv., !). but
p -laps not one with a blacker heart. "Fa
vor Is deceitful and beauty is vain," but "a
meek aud oulet spirit Is lu the sight of O ld
of great price." nud It is the hem, not the
outward appearance, that Ood looks upon
(I'rov. xxxl.,30; I l'et. lib, 4; I Ham. xvl.,
7). When the king kissed Absalom (xlv..
33), It was the loving kiss of a heartbroken
father welcoming bis erring son, but these
kisses of Absalom wero morn like the kiss of
Judas when he betrayed his Master, for
every one was a stab at his father's heart.
There nro those, even lu this day. both in
the ohuroh and out of It, who "by good
Words an. 1 fair snenches ilooelv.t iw." i....t-
of the slmplo."
7. "Let me go nnd pny my vow. which t
have vowed unto the Lord In Hebron."

no fenje in that foul licnrt nAv..r...l 1.. u..
fair an exterior, for "There is no peace, will li
the Lord to tno wicked" (I-n. Ivil., 21).
I'eace was within his reach, as It l within
the reaeli of every oue who has ever heard of
the 1'rluce of I'eaco, but it can only become
the possession of those who aro truly
penitent und aud siuenrelv submit to Itiui us)
their Kaviour and Lord. "'Ihe work of
righteouanetu shall bo peice, and theWT.'.'t
ot righteousueFS iniietijess nud iissur.ui.'.i
forever" (Isa. xxxli., 17). "So ho urose uu 1
Went to Hebron."
10. "Absalom reigneth In Hebron." Wiih
Profession of devotion to Ood on bis lips and
his father's bles.-.lu Bounding in bis ears lie
goes forth to carry out his devilish designs
against his father. The proclamation which
he caused to be sounded forth was equal to
bis saying, "I hereby rebel ngulust mv
father nnd drlvo him from bis thron-.''
David so understood it, for heaald unto all his
servants, "Arise and let us floe, for we shall
not else escape from Absalom," and the
servants said, "Heboid thy servants are
ready to do whatsoever my lord the king
shall appoint" (versos 14. 15). Contrast the
conduct of tho king's son with that of bis
servants and ot Ittai the Oittite lu vcrsut
19 to 31.
It. "They went in their simplicity, nnd
thoy knew not anything." This is written
of the 200 men out ot Jerusalem who went
With Absalom. If we would follow Jesus lu
this spirit, simply trusting, not knowing nor
desiring anything but His will, what blessed
people we would be nud what glory He would
get through us, but to follow a lender like
Absalom thus blindly Is the way to ruin.
There nre mauy nowadays who rebel against
the word of Ood nnd yet have many follow
ers who know nothing of Ood, but what they
bear from others. They are too simple.
11 "The poiplti iiier.'a-o.l continually

crowd will follow u popular leader, (low
multitudes turn away from the Ood of Truth
and Ills dear Sou to linten to nu lngersoll.

emotions, but not their Intellect. Unless wo
love Ood with the mind as well as the heart,
our character will be defective aud our life
unbalanced, Just as our theology will be un

The field of ripening grain lls still and
beautiful In the calm noon of a summer
day. Hut let the wind wake out of the west
and stir its mellow surface with a thousand
undulations of melting light and shade, and
we are filled with the eense of a grace and
loveliness that are beyond all words. The
rain falls In dull monotony of music and a
grent tree droops Its far stretched boughs
and dripping leaves In patient waiting with
a beauty of darkness which wo do not often
stop to f,.,.. Hut When the storm Is passing,
and the wind shakes the treasures of the
shower from bough and twigand the Innumer
able leaves are dancing for delight In the Mrt
glimpse of sunshine, nbowing cool depths
between the emerald dark und silvery light
of their ruin varnished surface!!, whi'le the
drops sparkle like diamonds fit their edges,
light and shadow minglo In the ningio dance
with unimaginable) benutv. The wood
depths on a cloudy dav are restful with their
cool, mysterious shadow, the green roof
overhead, the brown leaf carpet rich with
tra-ery of fern and growth of vine and herb
loving the twilight nnd nt home among
the eompnnv of brown tn-i columns
flecked with lichen green or gray.
Hut what a different and more ex.pil.sito
spirit of beaiitv haunts the svlvan wnvs
when all the f. treat atmosphere Is barred

THE PIVINE I'llKHKNi ft.
Nothing can be of greater pr.t -tlcal Im
portance to every Christian than the con
stant realization of the IMvine presence, it
is worth every effort. It Is, as mu.-h as nnv
one can be, the key to the position, (ho
guarantee of a sacred life. Au Increasing
appreciation of this truth is shown lu tho
large emphasis which, for a few yours past,
has been put upon the doctrine of the Holy
Spirit. Is not this simply another form
of the same fad? The Holy Spirit
is the present O id, the (bid who
operates most immediately and direct
ly upon the human heart, the Ood of the
present dispensation or ug". I'ltilh also
what is that but the sense of Ood's presence,
the realization of unseen things, the close
touch with the eternal, the, appchensloii of
l'elty. II. -nee to say of a person he Is "full
of faith und the Holy Ohost," Is only an
other way of saying that lie keeps Ood ever
before bis eyes ; tied is at Ills right hand, so
that he is not moved by mundane things. I.'i
that Presence Is fullness of Joy, complete
ness of liberty, abundance of fa'..
