4 BIBLE sTUdTeS'
JEHOVAH’S SUFFERING SERVANT
Isaiah 52:13; 53:1-12—July 9
’’Jehovah hath laid on him the iniquity of u»
all."
IN this study we have a Divinely
drawn portrait of the experi
ences which God fore-ordained
should come upon the One whom
He has promised shall ultimately be
the great Messiah of glory who will
exalt the nation of Israel and through
It pour blessings upon all the families
of the earth. Thus it is written, “In
thy Seed shall all the families of the
earth be blessed.” Much of the proph
ecy of this study has already been ful
filled. but not all of it—the glorious
features are yet to come, and we be
lieve are nigh, even at the door.
These prophecies were written nearly
seven hundred years before our Chris
tian Era. They had their most striking
fulfilment in the -
personal experi
ences of Jesus. z
However, it JF
should not be for
gotten that a faith
ful handful, a “lit
tie flock,” the fol- " v i
lowers of Jesus,
have walked in Kt fa' !| O' *' I
His steps during Vfaf II n
the nineteen cen- t] f
turies of this Age;
they ha\ e follow o an Q ame Death.
ed Him through
evil report and good report; they have
suffered with Him, and the reproaches
of those who reproached Him have
fallen upon them; and when the hour
of glorious revelation, the Kingdom
power, shall come, these will be with
their Redeemer and ehare His throne
and glory, and, as His Bride, share His
name. “This is the name whereby she
shall be called, Our righteousness of
Jehovah.”—Jer. 23 :G; 33:16.
The key to the understanding of the
long delay in the establishment of Mes
siah’s Kingdom is found in the fact
that the Church is a very part of Him,
members of His Body. Had it not been
the Divine intention to gather an
“elect” few from Israel and from all
nations to be the Bride of Messiah,
and a sharer in His Kingdom, there
would have been no need of the long
delay between the sufferings of Jesus
and the outpouring of the glorious
blessings which His death secures.
Again it must be remembered that
the elect Church is wholly different
from the nominal church, as repre
sented in Its various systems. The
true Church of God consists only of
the saintly few who may be found in
side and outside of all denominations
of Christendom. “Gather My saints
together unto Me, those who have
made a covenant with Me by sacri
fice.” (Psa. 50:5.)
There are tw’O reasons why the
world and its great ones will be as
tonished when the Mediatorial King
dom shall suddenly burst upon the
world. They have* heard such chimer
ical and unreasonable statements re
specting Messiah’s Kingdom, even
from the people of God, that they will
be taken completely by surprise when
they shall behold the reality.
When it shall be ushered in, follow
ing a great social revolution, it will
be so much more majestically grand
than anything dreamed of that every
mouth shall be stopped and, as the
Lord through the Prophet declares,
that Kingdom of Messiah shall be the
“desire of all nations.”—Hag. 2:6, 7.
As Seen by His Followers
Chapter 53. verses 1 to 6, pictures the
experiences of Jesus as viewed from
the standpoint of the disciples of His
day and since. Following their com
mission, they have told the wonderful
story of tbe Sa ’
$ vior’s love and
V'Vsacrifice, even
£ 4ST - ~jjjQl un t° death. But
how few have
heard, In the true
sense of hearing;
how few have ap
predated it; how
few have seen in
Jesus the Arm of
Jehovah, stretch
«■ e( j down for the
Wounded For Our relief of Adam
Trawrewions. and his raee from
sin and death! Only a handful, the
saintly few, really and truly believe
the message, for surely every true be
liever would not only accept the prof
fered share of the Redeemer’s merit,
but also the proffered share of His
sufferings, that they might have a
share also in the glory to follow.
The Scriptures explain that in the
Divine arrangement our Lord buys
Adam and his race, condemned through
his fall. Being raised from the dead
by the Heavenly Father, Jehovah, Je ;
sus is now the glorified One, merely
waiting for the completion of the
Church whic'n is His Body, that He
may take to Himself His great power
and reign, as The Messiah of Israel and
of the world. During the Messianic
reign, opportunity will be given to
Adam and all his race to be resurrect
ed or uplifted out of sin and death
conditions—up, up, up to full human
perfection and everlasting life—to all
that was lost in Adam, to all that was
redeemed through the cross. This is
explained in the following verse: “He
shall see His seed"—His progeny; so
many of Adam’s progeny as will obey
Him He will adopt as His children,
giving them life everlasting on the
plane of human perfection.

Market for Condensed Milk.
The United States consul feels sure
that there’s a promising market in
Malta for condensed milk. “Fresh
cow’s milk is scarce in Malta,” he
writes, “and most Maltese use goat’s
milk. There are about 10,000 milch
goats In the islands. They are driven
from house to house and milked in the
presence of the buyer. Goats are tied
at the doors of Maltese cases and
when milk is wanted for coffee the
animal is milked by the owner. As a
large proportion of the goats have
Mediterranean fever germs, the for
eign residents refrain from using their
milk and the British garrison is for
bidden to consume it.”
Concerning Man-Eaters.
It seems strange that bears, so fond
of all sorts of flesh, running the risks
of guns and fires and poison, should
never attack men except in defense of
their young. Only wolves and tigers
seem to have learned to hunt man for
food, and perhaps sharks and croco
diles. Mosquitoes and other insects
would, 1 suppose, devour a helpless
man in some parts of the world, and
so might lions, leopards, wolves, hy
enas and panthers at times if pressed
by hunger—but under ordinary cir
cumstances perhaps only the tiger
among land animals may be said to be
a man-eater, unless we add man him
self.—John Muir, in the Atlantic.
Even Cannon Droop.
Among the problems with which
army and navy engineers have to deal
nowadays is that of the drooping of
the muzzles of excessively long guns
under the stress of their own weight.
Experiments have shown that wire
wound guns of 12-inch caliber and 50-
feet length droop at the muzzle about
4% minutes of arc, while built-up
solid guns of the same size droop
about 2-% minutes. Differences of
temperature in the body of the gun
also cause bendings, which may eith
er increase the droop at the muzzle
or counteract it, according as it is the
upper or under part of the gun that
has the higher temperature. In con
sequence, projectiles on leaving a gun
have a wabbly motion, continuing up
to 500 yards and probably more.
Why Our Politicians Nted Voice*.
The United States House of Repre
sentatives, whose members have been
enlivening an all-night sitting with
the comic songs, is not well adapted
for musical performances. “So bad
are the acoustics,” writes Goldwin
Smith, “and so incessant is the noise
of talking, moving about, slamming
desks and calling pages that hardly
any speaker can be heard. It is a
babel with a gavel accompaniment.
Order there is none. I have seen a
lumber of members leave their places
and group themselves, standing round
a speaker whom they particularly
wanted to hear. Speaker Reed’s sten
torian voice prevailed over this din.
So did that of W. J. Bryan. A voice
of thunder is almost a condition of
political eminence in the United
States. No ordinary voice will fill the
house of representatives or a con
vention hall.” —London Chronicle.
Face to Face With *sod.
We are to be grateful for anything
that will bring us to spiritual reflec
tion and noble aims. Some have more
clearly seen the shining upward way
in the dark night of bereavement,
even as Jacob saw the celestial ladder.
He is always ready to help us over
the hard places. Nothing is more in
teresting to the parents than their
little one’s first attempts to walk; he
falls so often, but still keeps trying.
If he could walk perfectly all at once,
their love would not be so tender.
The earnestness of his weakness
makes him inexpressibly dear. If we
could follow perfectly, we would never
know how tender, how sympathetic,
how infinitely loving our heavenly
father is. The more we need his love
the more he manifests it. What a
wonderful thing it is that we can dare
to try to follow him. We could not
begin to follow God If he were not
our father.
Aeroplane in the Antarctic.
Dr. Douglas Mawson, who intends
to lead an expedition toward the south
pole this year, has decided to take
along an aeroplane, capable of carry
ing two passengers one hundred and
eighty miles without making a de
scent. As the plans for this interest
ing contrivance read, it may possibly
be of genuine assistance; but in prac
tice it is likely to fall far short of Dr.
Mawson’s anticipations. Even In tem
perate Latitudes the aeroplane is still
an uncertain device, and in one of the
tremendous tempests that visit the
south polar region it would be unavail
able. Plainly much depends upon
chance. It might conceivably spell
the difference between failure and suc
cess; but on the other hand it might
prove not merely useless but a posi
tive detriment. Its weight must be
considerable, and altogether it seems
at this distance a dubious innovation.
The chances are good fcr Captain
Scott’s ponies beating it to the pole.

America “Do Move.”
Years ago there was a uotable and
eccentric individual called the Great
American Traveler. But recent statis
tics would seem to show that pretty
nearly everybody in this country is
becoming a great American traveler.
Ten years ago the railroad experts
figured out that the total number of
passengers carried in the United
States one mile was about 13,330,-
000,000. Now the number Is put at
29,500,000,000, an increase of more
than 120 per cent. Of course this ex
hibit includes those who go only short
distances. But even at that the show
ing is remarkable. The average Amer
ican keeps “on the move” to an ex
tent not known among his conten>
poraries elsewhere.
When the Ship Artist Forgets.
In the paintings of big ocean liners
put forth by the steamship companies
there’s not much chance to go astray
nautically nor anywhere near the
chance for blunders that there is in
depicting any sort of sailing ship
But one thing the steamship artists
generally do wrong. They point the
mouths of the ventilators to wind
ward. At sea ventilators always open
to leeward, being shifted as the wind
changes The marine artists often
paint ventilators wrong purposely be
cause a long row of red mouthed air
shafts look well, or is thought to
As the direction of the wind is indi
cated by the smoke drifting back the
mistake is glaring.
Birds Damage Furs Hung Out to Air.
A southern woman had* a set of
chinchilla furs ruined last spring. She
hung them on a line in the yard and
never gave them another thought un
til a neighbor called to her to save
them from the mocking birds. When
she ran out it was too late. Big pieces
of fur had been snatched from the
muff and collar, and the tender skin
was pierced in several places by the
birds’ sharp beaks. I spoke of this to
a furrier and he told me that he fre
quently repairs fur that has been
•pecked by birds. Even the city spar
rows will peck them for nest lining.
They are especially partial to long
haired furs, such as fox or bear.—
Good Housekeeping.
Justice White’s Spotlight.
Chief Justice White of the United
States Supreme court uses a little
lighting arrangement when he’s hand
ing down decisions that reminds one
of the spotlight on the little girl in
the middle of the front row in a mus
ical comedy. The Supreme court room
is never brilliantly lighted, but all of
the ether justices read their decisions
just from the light of the room —that
is, they don’t use desk lights, or if
they do, the lights don’t show. Chief
Justice White, sitting in the middle of
the row of solemnly garbed jurists,
usually closes his eyes till it comes
time for him to hand down a decision.
Then he perks up, flicks on the little
light in front of him, and it sits at
such an angle that it illmines his face
for all the world like the headliner in
a vode-veel act.
Practical Criticism.
The following is a criticism of “Ham
let” by a genius in New South Wales:
“There* is too much chinning in the
piece. The author is behind the times,
and appears to forget that what we
want nowadays is hair-raising situa
tions and detectives. In the hands of
a skillful playwright a detective would
have been put upon the track of Ham
let’s uncle, and the old man would
have been hunted down in a manner
that would have excited the audience
out of their number elevens. The
moral of the piece is not good. The
scene ■where Hamlet cheeks his moth
er is a very bad example to the rising
generation. Our advice to the author
is a little more action, a little more
fine sentiment, and a fair share of va
riety business in his next piece. In
the specialty arts of the play scene
he has entirely missed his opportuni
ties.”
With His Compliments.
Miss Ellen Terry, at a farewell lunch
eon in New York, paid her respects to
the harem skirt, says the Washington
Star. “If it’s pretty and becoming,
let’s welcome it,” she said; “for if it’s
pretty and becoming it will stay,
whether we welcome it or not. I
hate ignorance and bigotry, even In
the matter of the harem skirt The
other day a pretty girl in riding
dress was stoned and hissed —the peo
ple took her skirt for the harem sort.
That was sheer ignorance—as bad as
the school board kind. There was a
quarrel among the school board men
once tn an Essex town, and an official
from London was sent down to settle
it. The official gathered the board
about him. He said he would hear
the chairman first. ‘What, Mr. Chair
man,’ he bftgan, ‘was the cause of this
quarrel?’ ‘Well, ye see, sir,’ said the
chairman, ‘we had an argyment over
spellin’, and I wrote to —to —’ ‘You’re
a liar,’ broke in another board man.
‘You can’t write.’ ”
