The brides of Scripture are most suggestive also. as Rebekah. anhel. Asenath. Zip- porath, Ruth and Abigail. The story of Rebekah, being ohmined by the serv- ant for the only son of his master. who had given all his wealth to Isaac. is wonderfully suggestive. The ques- tion put to her.'"‘.\'ilt thou go with this man?” (Gen. xxir, 58) is like the “Come" of 0111' lesson, and all the Oth- This parable at the marriage of- the king’s son is found only in the gospel by Matthew and sets before us both the present phase of a rejet-tion of the invitation and also a glimpse of the consummation. hut chiefly the former. Miss Habershon says in her hook on the parables that they rover the whole period from the first advent of our Lord Jesus Christ in inrarnation to His second advent in alpry.â€" His inrarua- tion is implied: His life. ministry and rejection are described. and His death is prophesied. but must of thepirtures represent the iinw’of IIis absence or the epoch of His. return. They were not merely the words ofthe man‘Christ Jesus. a great teacher and a God sent prophet. They were. like all that He said. the words of His Father given Him to speak. for He said. “Whatso- ever I speak. therefore. even as the Father said unto me. So I speak” IJohn xii. 50) He taught also “through the Holy Spirit” «Arts i. '2; x. :1. D. so that in all His tearhing we have the Trin- ity. even as in the parable of Luke xv we see the love of the Son. the Spirit and the Father. The burning up of the city (verse 7) may refer to its destruction by Nebu- chndnezzar at the time of the captiv- ity in Babylon or the destruction by Titus some forty years after the time of our lessonâ€"probably the latter. The highway message may cover the whole of this age. when from all the world the guests are being gathered for the marriage of the Lamb. The bad and good remind us of the net of Matt. xiii. 47-50. and the end of the age. when there shall be the separa- tion. We are to gather all who seem willing‘and leave it to Him to prove who are really Hisand who are mere professors, who really have and who only seem to have. All will be made plain in due time. Now the great Question is Have I cor- dially accepted His- invitation? In one place we read of the queen and also of the virgins. her companions (PS. xlv, 9. 14). In Matt. XXV. 1 (Syriac and Vulgate). we read of the Bride- groom-and the Bride and the virgins. In Rev; xix, 7. 9. we read of the Lamb’s wife and also of those. who are called to the marriage supper.

Because Belgium is the key to all Western Europe; it is the strategic point that has been recognized hv military men in all ages. That is Why it has had its Waterloo. its G'enappe, its Nancy. Since. the days of the Runs, the Goths. the Franks, it has been the cockpit of EurOpe. . ~ ’ In the years of peace since .\':1~ pol-eon met his Waterloo. the. Walloons have addressed them- selves to develoning the com~ merce of their country, and their Liege is called “the Pittsburg‘ of Belgium.” But through it all it has been recognized that when the War did break out, as the War offices of Europe all knew it would sooner or later, Belgium was considered as being the Strut- egic point. ‘Years ago :1 historian “Their possession (by the Gel"- mansl would Open the door to Europe.

There i.- even ground for the belief that in the German War office serious resistance was not anticipated'from the busv craftsmen of Liege. But the Walloon is by heritage a Lover of justice and his own rights. It did not seem to him fair. as the King of Belgium ex- pressed it, for an outside [)OWau‘ to deliberately tear up the treaty which it had signed. There was therefore, something of a put- riotic fervor which stirred the fighting Walloons to action. Small Army ; Benevolent Discipline Belgium hasnot a large stand- ing army.
