the lord with gladness come before his presence with singing psa 1002 the lesson as a whole apnroach to the lesson the book of psalms from which our lessons are to be taken for some weeks now was the praise book of the nation of israel these inspired lyrics were sung at the temple and synagogue services as well as in the homes of the people and on their journeys as from year to year they came up to worship the lord at jerusalem actually there are ave books combined into one so that the jews often refer red to them as the pentateuch of david just as we have the penta teuch of moses in the first five books of the bible strikingly enough and in itself an evidence of divine design in their arrange ment a careful examination will show that the outstanding theme of each of these books of psalms corresponds with the earlier group of five book one embraces psalms 1 to 41 and as n genesis the great truths specially emphasized here are tiie glory of god as creat or and the contrasted ways of the righteous and the ungodly book two consists of psalms 42 to 72 here as in exodus god is present ed as the redeemer delivering his people from sin and its consequen ces book three includes psalms 73 to 89 this is the sanctuary book the leviticus of the psalms bringing the people of god into fellowship with himself in holy separation from all that is evil and unclean book four psalms 90 to 106 lays stress upon the wilder ness experiences of israel answer ing to the book of numbers in psalms 107 to 150 we are in the deuteronomy section extolling the overruling government of god it will ibe noticed that in each of these divisions the illustrations used are drawn from the corres ponding book of moses surely in all this we see indubitable evidence of the divine inspiration of the holy scriptures the historical setting while most of the psalms were written and sung by david there are several by other authors one the ninetieth is attributed to moses some are by asaph and one at least is possibly by solomon quite a few are spoken of as or phan psalms as they have no hu man authors name connected with them the psalms were written over a period of perhaps five hun dred years and put in final order in the days of ezra according to hebrew tradition verse by verse psa 11 walketh not nor standeth nor sitteth the first part of this psalm which serves as an introduction to the entire book celebrates the blessedness of the man who refuses all association with those who dishonor god by disobedience to his word the man of god is not found walking in the counsels of the ungodly neither is he to be seen sitting in company with those who scorn the things of the lord actually the verbs here are in the past tense of only one iblessed man can it be said that he walked not stood not nor sat in the ways of the godless verse 2 his delight is in the law of the lord this is more than a mere negative attitude while the blessed man refuses the evil he de lights in the good the word of god is the food of his soul and the joy of his heart verse 3 like a tree planted by the rivers of water drawing his strength from the fountains of divine revelation this man pros pers in his way and brings forth fruit unto god verse 4 the ungodly are like the chaff in contrast to the blessed man of the first three vers es those who refuse to be in sub jection to the will of god are like the worthless chaff which is driven away by the wind as it is separated from the wheat in the time of threshing verse 5 the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment to stand in the judgment is to be justified before the divine throne whatever their confident boasting now the ungodly will be condemned in the day when they appear before god they shall have no place in the congregation of the righteous verse 6 the lord knoweth the way of the righteous the holy eye of god beholds all the ways of men and his judgment is according to truth he will re ward the righteous in due time and punish the ungodly who have spurned his word psa 671 god be merciful un to us and hless us in this psalm the hearts of the people of god are lifted up to hun in adoration and prayer no doubt it was used frequently as an opening or closing hymn when the people gathered together to worship the lord it begins with the prayer for his loving favor as the source of all outlook is grim all over the province heavv damage was done to crops in north central and western ontario by frost during june a newsletter from the fruit and vegetable inspection division on tario department of agriculture says the

tomatoes blessings verse 2 that thy way may be known upon earth thy saving health among all nations the god of israel was not as some have supposed a mere tribal deity he was the god of all mankind and was so recognized by israel con sequently they prayed that all people might come to know his way and enjoy his saving health his delivering power bringing bles sing to spirit and body alike verse 3 let all the people praise thee elsewhere we are told that praise is comely for the upright psa 331 it is meet that all men should honor and praise the lord because of his in finite love and wisdom verse 4 o let the nations be glad and sing for joy this is the heartfelt prayer of the godly is raelite who would have all men everywhere know and rejoice in the one who had manifested his favor toward them and who had promised to deliver the nations from their miseries and misrule this will have its fulfillment when our lord returns in glory to estab lish his kingdom over all on earth verses 5 and 6 god even our own god shall bless us again the people are called upon to praise the lord in a holy unity of spirit when thus united in giving him glory we may be assured that his blessing will follow verse 7 the ends of the earth shall fear him to a large extent this has become true already but it awaits its complete fulfillment when the kingdom of god is set up in power and all men recognize the divine authority the heart of the lesson children of god both in old and new testament times have found the contemplation of the book of psalms an unfailing source of spir itual refreshment and soul culture every experience that believers are called upon to pass through seems to find some expression here the more one saturates his mind and heart with these holy hymns and sacred songs the more they prove to be a constant source of spiritual growth and edification the contrast between the godly and ungodly man which begins in psalm one runs all through these inspired lyrics emphasizing the blessedness of a life of piety and the folly of a life lived for self and sin they have encouraged the living and comforted the dying above all they present christ in a wonderful way setting forth po etically his sufferings and the glories that are to follow they should not be read hurriedly or thoughtlessly but slowly and care fully in order that one may enter
