Sanballat of Bethâ€"horon was a Samaritan leader who feared the growing power of the Jewish state. _ His name indicates Tho work of building was carefully planned and organized. The leading families, the guilds of workmen, and even the priests, were allotted their respective tacks> _ The fallen debris and accumulated rubbish were removâ€" ed, the foundations laid bare, and on all sides at once the building proceedâ€" Evidently there were influences at work in Jerusalem itself to any strengthening of the Jewish people, or to giving the appearance of a separate and independent state. The new govâ€" ernor‘s plans were, therefore made quickly and secretly. _ By night he surreyed the ruired walls;© in the morning he summoned the people to build.. But Sanballat and his allies laughed them to scorn. IL THE BUILOING O®f THE WALL, CH. 3. ed. _ There was work for all, and there were no slackers. III, tug orrostrion, cus. 4, 6: 1 To INBTRUCFIONâ€"There was probably more than one attempt to rebuild the wall of Jerusalem, which had been «broken down by the Chaldean army in B.C. 586. A brief note in Ezar 4; 6 refers to some accusation, having to do with building, which was made aâ€" gainst the Jews in the reign of Ahasuâ€" erus (Xerxes, B.C. 485â€"464). A story is told in the same chapter (vs. 1â€"23) of a building enterprise in the reign of Artaxerxes which was stopped by a letter of protest sent to the king by hostile neighbors. The letter said that the Tews "are building the rebellious and the bad city, and have finished the walls and repaired the foundations." The king‘s reply contained a decree to put a stop to the building, and these enemies of the Jews immediately hastâ€" ened to Jerusalem and "made them to cease by force and power." It is like ly that the work of the builders lt} this time was undone and the wall again broken down. _ At any rate, travelers from Jerusalem to Babylonâ€" ia in the twenticth year of reign of Artaxerxes reported that "the remâ€" nant that are left of the captivity there in the province are in great affiiction and reproach; the wall of Jerusalem also is broken down, and the gates thereof burned with fire." It was report that caused much grief to the king‘s cupbearer, a wealthy Jew named Nehemiah, and around in him the patriotic desire to go to Jerusalem and do what he could for the city of his fathers (se ch. 1). L.aiue suevey sy wicut, cH. 2. Nehemiah, much distressed by the news which he had heard waited for a favorable opportunity to make his reâ€" quest to the king. Fortunately, we have the story told in delightfully simple and graphic style by Nchemiah himself, whose memoirs for a considâ€" erable part of his bock (1: 1â€"7: 5 and 13: 4â€"31). The opportunity came when the king observed his sadness and askâ€" ed the reason. It is quite characterisâ€" tic of the capricious weakress of Arâ€" taxerxes that he should now authorize his favorite, Nehemiah, to do what he had forbidden others to do a short time before. So, Nehemiah says, it pleased the king to send me. He was like Ezra, provided with letters to the governors beyond the river. that is, wost of the river Euphrates, ordering them to further him on his journey; and to keeper of the king‘s forest, that he give him from the Lebanon forests the timber he would require for his building. Two men of rank and influâ€" ence, enemies of the Jews, Sanballat and Tobiah, heard the news and it grieved them exccedingiy, that there was come a man to seek the welfare| of the children of Isracl.

During that time it was guarded by the pilot and mechanic was away obtaining help, by the pilot alone The bullion boxes were eventually raised from the river bed by Mr. Palâ€" for, the owner of the farm and some others by means of grapnels, The boxes were then with the remainder of the gold se&by lorry to Lympne aerodrome wh a â€" relief machine conveyed them to Paris. "I‘ll say Iâ€"haveâ€"almost all of her there is." * is A French bullion aeroplane carrying gold to .the value of $500,000 from London to Paris had a forced landing here recently, crashing into some trees in a field at Vesper®Hawk Farm, at the edge of the River Beult. Immediately the acroplane came to rest the pilot and the mechanic, who were uninjured, jumped out and in a state of the greatest anxiety concernâ€" ing the safety of their precious cargo sought for assistance in its salving. The underâ€"carriage of the machine was torn off and two boxes with some $55,000 worth of gold ‘nside were hurled into the river. ‘ What they failed to accomplish by force the enemy now sought to do by lguile. They invited Nehemiah to meet them in one of the country vilâ€" lages. ‘"‘They though," he says, "to do me mischief," Wisely, he declared him self too busy to go. See the fhole story of deceit and guile in ch. 6. IV. a SOCIAL PROBLEM AND ITS soLUTâ€" ION, CHAP. 5. The ageâ€"long problem of rich and poor presens itself, and, like all that Nehemiah attempts to do, is dealt with in a large and generous way. In: verses 14â€"19 we have Nehemaih‘s comments upon what was done writ-‘ ten twelve or more years later. French ‘Plane Carrying Gold Crashes in Kent Gold Bullion at Bottom of River The middle clause of verse 7 seems to mean that the wall in all its secâ€" tions was built to half the required height. Such was the wrath of Judâ€" ah‘s enemies that they conspired all of them logether. to come and to fight against Jerusalem. Nehemiah‘s conâ€" duct of affairs at this crisis was adâ€" mirable. _ He says, "We made our prayer unte our God, and set a watch against them day and night." For their adversaries were planning a surâ€" prise attack (v. 11). Nehemiah had to guard against foes from without and strengthen faintâ€"hearted workmen at the wall. _ To make matters worse, Jews who lived in or hear the enemy‘s country, and who knew what was goâ€"‘ ing on there, came ten times to perâ€" suade their friends and relatives who were working on the wall :o quit and return to their homes (v. 12, Revised Version). _ Ncehemiah‘s courage and firmness prevailed. Half of the peoâ€" ple were armed and ready for battle at an instant‘s call. The half who worked carried each man his sword by his side. â€" By the leader‘s side was the trumpeter to sound the alarm. "Be not ye afraid of them; remember the Lord," was Nehemiah‘s word to the rulers. _ The enemy heard that God had brought their counsel to nought. that he may have belonged to an Asâ€" syrian or Babylonian family which had made its home in Palestine. His daughter was married to a grandson of the Jewish high priest (13; 2T). He chose to cover his fear by an apâ€" pearance of scorn. _ What do these feeble Jews? "A fox could break down their wall," said his friend and ally, Tobiah. Nehemiah‘s prayer for their discomfiture can be readily understood (vs. 3â€"4). . He adds, very simply, "So built we the wall. .for the people had a mind to work." â€" â€" ACÂ¥ p 64 (af . t 1 illing of a lamb is an operaâ€" bDringing the grading system into more| ‘The k i l ave nearly perfect relationship with the‘luon to shrink frlo u, :y‘:?&sei:honam, ue Slad. andhlzegds o th; h:l?::t?l:'::m hae!:- :lxlp(::er:tion necessary â€" in The grades, which are no owever, Ns number, and designat.ed 5 “i Sel;it‘me ec::::nzilfii,gp:‘;:::ll;gbemé:tedo(m is B Ba(jon' Iï¬tc':‘tzrfl ;‘l:dea;'::;lel‘l. :t l?;:st thirtyâ€"six hours but may be fca Hea;:)es, nz Stags, are clearly given a plentiful supply of water to R°“5h°; % 'a&:Wa Mfll';hk?'t No. 40, Of drink during that period.
