T When ha'lf ofthe Seventy Years of Captivity was over Ezekiel had the vision of the Stream from the Temple in Jerusalem. Hope is a wondrous stimulus. in the midst of any’distressing condition. The heart of devout Jewry was still in the land that Jehovah had given them in perpetuity. God is always timely in His promises, and the (things thus assured must come to pass. Meanwhile there is inspiring cheer to encourage in the midst of daily toil. ' T .. --ReuuLu_aptarsu0.déras,uhaar,-aavontitar., oYoxcwi1kgxu,with-Eaekisst to Jerusalem, in 40:2, and behold the Jews restored .to their tribal -TrtmBewtrmtiittrrTehriite-Ttmttrhrirt the tiidst-of-the-Holrfh'ty.. rTi-re prophet declared the-vision with assurance, knowing that his Lord could- bring all to pass. The people 1i ned with rapture, for their fondest hopes were being portrayed. t" _ .- -- With exactness therery footsteps had been traced as Ezekiel tells how he was guided by the angel. Water within the, city had always been a;problem, and particularly so in time of war. It was startling to behold water flowing continuously from the temple area wall; Usually ' the most that could be counted on was the water held in some cistern. The only explanation was that the-altar was'at the source thereof. . A thousand cubits were measured as the floiing.stream was followed. Since a cubit was from 18-21. inches the distance was about one third of a mile. Then another standard is used, the stature of a man.' The water. Was ankle deep,.h,ueid1owed-onward, which was-contrary to, fviperieneevin Jerusalem. 'AnotlfeE'HOOO etsbitsrmrtrtrrtttrrrstrNvirvereyrr' Again “the: amine distance wagptrapured and the stream- was. now. loin deep.' A ffrurth'1,000. brought them to a coriditirtwhereiven “aman V was out of his depthind could swim at will. ,2» q 1 . This vision waSvnot portraying a Wonder. The waters were flowing for a blessed purpose. Therissued from the city wall, entered the Kedron valley and rushed onward and downward to the depth of the Jordan at the Dead Sea. All had been desert desolation. Attention Was then called to the conditions at the side of the stream. There was now rich vegetatidn and productive trees. Though the Dead sea is five times saltier than the ocean its waters wertrrnade sweet as the stream issuing from the Temple altar flowed into it. Now life could be found in the sea that had been‘called "dead." In fact "everything shall Twe withersoever the river ddmeth." V V _ - . . This stream of fulfillment can be followed in the progress of Chris- tianity. One. third ofthe race has already named Him, and all mankind is helped. thereby as Christianizing civilization reaches; them. No previoiis condition of man is toe hard but that life‘can be changed for the better. The Golden Text is similarly prophetic: "Of the increase of his government and'of peace there shall be no end," Isaiah 9:7. A broader life was pictured for Jewry, .Thus far they had lived for and largely cwithin themselves: Though Jonah had given a great teaching they had yet to learn that "Other sheep I have which are not of this fold." _-. , _ .
