Od. 17—IClisha Heals Xuauuui. the
Syrian. 11 Kings 5 1-14.
We have for our lesson this week
one of the great bible stories of the
Old Testament. It is one which has
delighted the ears of eliiUlren lor many
hundred years, as told by the mother
Til the homo, the teacher in the Sab
bath school and tjpe preaehcr in the
pulpit. If overflows with thoughts
which are helpful/
The time of the lesson is in the days
of lOlisha, the prophet of tioil, of
whom wo learned somewhat in' the
study of la I. week. It would appear
that in one of the numberless military
.expeditions indulged in by the king ol'
Syria and his generals against coun
tries border
in? certain captives were
•made of .lews living along the Jordan
river. Among these was a little girl,
and she was taken to the household of
one of the great Syrian generals to
work in the home. The general was
Naaman. a mighty man in Syria. He
must have been kindly in the eyes'of
the maiden, for she took much inter-,
est ill him and particularly when she
knew that he had the loathsome dis
ease of leprosy. She knew well what
this meant and her sympathies went
out to her master although he kept
her a captive.
In her humble way the nameless girl
became one ol' the great characters ol
the bible. She showed sympathy,
willingness, to help others, which
stamps IK one of Clod's own. She ex
pmwed regret thai her master could
not. see the prophet, in her homeland
and be cured of this disease. Her re
mark came to the ears df Naaman and
lie was eager to try for help, even in
the despised land of Israel. He start
ed for there, armed with a letter from
liifs' kins to that of Israel, and princely
presents to be bestowed on the one
who could give liim relief. The king
'f Israel ia wrathful and sorely per
plexed when asked to "recover' Naa
man of his leprosy, calling.the demand
but an excuse for further invasions
from the king of Syria.
Klislia now comes to view, by send
ing word to the king to send the royal
Syrian to him. that he might know
tliero was a prophet of the true (Jo
in Israel. Willi a mighty feeling of
his position and power as a general,
Naaman came with his presents and
servant to the home of Klisha. He
had been used to having all men about
bim bow in his honor and feel glad
when he condescended to speak to
1hem. It was thus his idea that the
one whom he honored by asking for
healing would come before him with
deference, take hold of his person, or
•place? thereon medicines to effect the
desired cure. Naaman was about to
receive a lesson that the Jehovah of
Israel was no respecter of persons and
to nx'perience a humbling of pride
AVliich he little cxpccted. when he
came to the country of the despised
Jews.
Elis-ha would n:it so much as step
out of his house to see the great gen
eral, but sent directions by messen
gers to the effect that to be rid of the
leprosy he must wash seven times in
the Jordan river. Great was the dis
appointment of Naaman. Things were
not going as hn planned, the river Jor
dan was an inferior stream to many
in his own country.' He was so, in
rage that lie was ready to still bear
the disease rather than humble hi'iis: If
by obeying the words of one who did
him no honor, and bade him do what
seemed a ridiculous tiling. Happily
for him, some of his servants and re
tainers were level headed enough to
see it was. foolish to return home with
no cure, when so small a thing was
asked as the bathing in a certain riv
er. near at hand, seven times. Their
reabouing prevailed, antT to the Jor
dan wont Naaman with his gorup of
men. Once, twice, three times, four.
v'Jlve,
fc* 4
six', still no signs of the leprosy
iltfaving, and then canic the last act
at obedience to the demands of Ciod
through Mishit the prophet. Seven
times, and lo, the awful spots- were
gone aud the flesh like as that of a
little healthy child.
Words cannot express the feelings
•which must have come to the great
general, but—there must have been
boundless joy, and the deepest grati
tude. In far different state of mil"
Nits man went again to the house of
the prophet. His pride was humbled.
ltj was ready to praise and magnify
the Jehovah of the despised Israelites.
He was ready la accept Him as hits
(rod for the future. To still further
impress Naaman with the greatness of
the God he represented. Klisba would
not .accept reward in the shape of
presents, but sen! Naaman back to his
fri-yt 'nfciwisii,
hon^e recognizing that the gifts of Cod
then as well as now are free to those
who obey His couimauds..
Thus much fbr the lenson story. First
we note the work of the little maid.
In her captivity she did not forget the
God of her fathers, and magnified Him
over tin.' gods of the heathens about
her. She was of the kindly spirit,
which should he that of every follower
of God. aud anxious lo do good to those
about ht r. Second, with nil his power
and magnificence Naaman had upon
him a blight which no human power
eonld rid him oi'. Only the almighty
Jehovah, the true living God. could
liglp him. Third. Leprosy throughout,
the bible is ever likened lo human
sin. and rebellion against God. It is
a'danining blight from which there Is
no relief by one's own efforts. Fourth.
There must, be a giving up of one's
own pride and ways for a cure, and the
following out of that laid down by
God. Jesus says that to gain His fav
or there must be a coming to him as
that of a trusting child, with faith
that the sins can be taken away. Fifth
The gift of salvation is free without
money or price, for "Whosoever will
may come." There must be a giving
up of one's haughty will to the com
mands of Jesus, faith in what He
says, trust in His words, prayers for
help and then there will be an out
pouring of blessing which will remove
the sins of the past, and save from
such in the future. Hver remember
that God is able to ki»ep you from fall
ing and to present vim faultless lie
fore I ho presence of Tlis glory and
therefore to Him should be given
words of praise and thankfulness from
every lip.
