ITnskinB for IToalth.
the period of Israel's types waa not
wasted. Not only woro the types there
given, but nt the same tlmo a special
class of ngents were selected; Abra
ham. Isaac. Jncob. nnd all tho Proph
ets and worthy ours of thnt nge. holy,
consecrated to God. nnd accepted as
agents qualified for the Kingdom con
ditions. Of these the Scriptures de
clare. "They foil nsleep." They uro
still asleep lu the dust of tho earth,
awaiting tho glorious resurrection
morning, nnd a grand share then with
Messlnh lu tho work then to bo ac
complished. In their lifetime, they
were styled the Fathers, becauso Mes
siah waa foretold to be of tho iwster
Ity of Abraham, nnd also "David's
Son."
Hut other Scriptures, without con
tradicting these statements, show us
distinctly thnt "Dnvld's Son" nnd
"Abraham's Seed" is to be Lord and
Father of both David and Abraham.
Thus wo road. "Instead of thy fathers
shall bo thy children, whom thou
innyest make princes In till tho earth"
(Psalm xlv, 10). David's sou. Messiah,
will bo Dnvld'a father, or llfo-glver.
when ho will ralso David from tho
dead. Similarly ho will be the father
of all of thoso ancient worthies; and
as David's Lord, and "Lord of lords."
it will bo his plcnsuro to appoint to
Abraham, Isnac, Jacob and all of tho
Ancient Worthies, and Prophets, and
faithful ones a glorious aharo with
hlmsolf in tho groat Messianic King
dom, which ho Is about to Bet up for
tho ruling and blessing of Israel and
all tho nations of tho earth. Will not
this bo a grand honor to Abraham and
his Sccdl Could wo expect that the
Almighty would honor and uso lu such
n high position any oxcept tho faith
ful? Suroly not When Messiah shall
mnko these Ancient Worthies "Princes
lu nil tho earth." as representatives of
his Invisible Kingdom, will not this
mean honor and dignity to tho Jews
tlrst?
"Comfort Yo My Pooplo."
Our toxt Is ono of three declarations
lu tho Old Testament, which assure
us that there la a "doublo" connected
with Israel's history. That la to say,
Jewish history naturally divides Itself
Into two exactly equal parts; tho drat
of which waa a tlmo of favor, Inter
mingled with disciplines, but favor
nevertheless, Tho accond of these
parts has been one of disfavor mid
oxcluslou from Dlviuo fellowship. Ah
foretold by tho Prophet, Israol for
mnny countries has been without
prophot, or priest, mid without cphod
nnd without communion with God;
whorens, at ono time they woro God's
favored people. They now. nccordlng
to thou own ndmlsslon, nro bo thor
oughly rejected that they hnvo no com
muuloiitlon whatever, no light to shine
upon their pathway. The prophet's
words hnvo boon fulfilled, "Let their
table bocomo a snare before them; ami
that which should hnvo been for their
wolfaro, let It bgeome a trap. Let
their eyes bo darkened, thnt they see
not" (Psalm lxlx, 'J2, Jilt. Thoy have
stumbled; thoy are blinded: but thank
God their blindness la not to be per
petual. Tho period of their blindness
la thu second part of tho "double;"
with the fulfilment of that "double"
their blindness will begin to vanish,
nnd "All tho blind eyes shall bo open
ed." Of that tlmo tho Lord declares
(hat "He who scattered Israel will
gather them."
Wo are Impressed, not by fancy, but
by the Word of God. that Israel's
"double" Is now fulfilled, thnt Israel's
blessing has already begun, that tho
opening of Israel's eyes Is now In
progress. For this reason wo hnvo
chosen for our text. "Comfort ye, com
fort yo my people salth your God.
Cry unto Jerusalem and say unto her
that hor appointed tlmo Is accomplish
ed, for alio hath received at tho Lord's
hand double tho two parts of her
chastisement for nil her sins." Be
cause tho "doublo" Is completed, wo
may speak the words of comfort.
Thirty-four years ago wo called at
tention to these facts, but fow had
cars to hear. When eighteen years
ago wo visited Jerusalem, having In
mind chiefly tho fact that tho time for
tho regnthcrlng of Israel was nigh at
hand, nnd that tho set tlmo to favor
Zlon had come, wo found no bearing
cars amongst tho Jewish people; and
Zionism had not then been dreamed
of. Onr communications with tho rep
resentatives of the Baron Illrsch Im
migration Fund, and also with tho ex
ecutors of tho Sir Moses Montcfloro
Jewish Relief Fund met with scant
recognition. Nevertheless, wo felt suro
that Israel's "doublo" bad been ful
filled, nnd thnt her morning of Joy
would soon break.
Mcnntltno how much has happened
during thoso eighteen years! Zionism
has risen and engendered the hope of
tho "chosen people" In every land, nnd
turned their eyes townrd the land of
premise: not thnt nil nro thinking of
returning thither, but that every Jew
who retains faith lu the God of his
fathers, aud in tho Abrnhamlc prom
ise, Is now looking nnd hoping for tho
tlmo of blcssln?. long foretold. They
know not ntout their "double"; they
have not been studying tho Holy Scrip
tures, but the teachings of their an
cients, as presented .y .the Talmud.
They hnvo been making a very similar
mistake to that of Christian people,
who have been studying the creeda of
tho "dark ages" Instead of tho Word
of God.
Tho Throo "Doubles."
Glance with me nt three different
statements by tho Lord through the
rrophets of Israel respecting Israel's
"doublo" of experience: the first, an
experience of God's faver: the second,
nn experience of equal length without
dlvtno favor. Notice first Jeremiah's
prophecy (Jeremiah xvl. IS). After
telling of Israel's disfavor, and then
of their rognthcring, tho Lord declares,
"And first I will recompense their In
iquity and their sin double" somo of
tho recompense with favor, and some
without favor. Jeremiah's prophecy
looks down to the "doublo" from his
own day, which was moro than six
buudrcd years beforo tho second part
of their "doublo" begun.
Turn now to Zechnrlah's prophecy.
aud note that prophetically he takes
his standpoint nt tho very time when
tho second part of tho "double" be
gan. Ills words are, "Even to-day do I
declare that I will render dou&fa unto
thco (Zechnrlah lx. 12).
Come uoxt to our toxt, nnd noto thnt
tho Prophet Isaiah stands with us, nnd
views the matter from tho standpoint
that the "double" of oxpcrlcuco has
been fulfilled: "Speak comfortably unto
Jerusalem, cry unto tier that her ap
pointed time Is accomplished, because she
hath received at the Lord's hand double
two equal parts for her sins." It Is
our understanding thnt this "doublo"
reached fulfilment In tho year 1878
A. D nnd since that dnto wo have
been declaring to tho best of our abil
ity, as tho Lord granted opportunity,
these comforting words to Israel, as
suring God's chosen people that their
period of disfavor hns ended, nnd that
they nro gradually returning to pros
perity; that Dlvlno favor began with
them In 187R Yea, moro than this,
our sermons which to somo extent re
flect this fenturoof tho Dlvlno program
relating to Israel's restoration to Dl
vlno favor, nro being rend to a consld.
crablo extent by Hebrews as woll ns
by Christians; tholr eyes nro gradually
opening, na the Scriptures foretell thoy
shall do.
But how mny we know when the
turning point of Isrnol's "double" took
place? How mny wo know thnt the
"double" was completed in 1S7S? We
reply that tho nnswer to tho question
necessitates nn acknowledgment of
Jesus ns the Messiah. Israel's rejec
tion of him ns their King, marks the
turning point of God'a favor, ns the
prophecy of Zechnrlah, just quoted,
distinctly shows, Neither Christians
nor Jews have appreciated the full Im
port of the Incident montloned In the
Gospel; that live days before his cruci
fixion, Jesus rode upon nu ns. after
tho manner of Jewish kings, Into the
city of .lerusnloin, n umltltudo sur
rounding him, and going beforo htm.
shouting, "Ilosaniia to tho Son of Dn
vldl Blessed is he that comoth In tho
namo of Johovnhl" Tho Prophet
Zechnrlnh called attention to this In
cident centuries beforo It occurred, and
then gives the LordV words, "Even t
dny do I declare. 1 will render double
. unto thee."
Israel's history as a nation began
I with the death of Jacob, when ho gave
his blessing to the twelve tribes. The
period from thnt time to the death i
Jesus, according to the Scripture, wan
1 18-15 yeara: and a like period of dlsfn
i ror, meiiHiirltig from the day of Jesus'
. rejection marks the year 1878. nn the
j end' of Israel' disfavor, tho time
when the message of comfort should
go forth However. Divine fnvor wns
only gradually taken from Israel, and
altogether a period of thirty-six yearn
Intervene between tho death of .lesui
and the utter destruction of Jerusa
lem. Similarly we should expect that
tho iCturn of favor would bo gradual,
a like period of 30 yenrs; nnd this
would bring no to tho year 11)14. as tho
tlmo when God'a fnvor for his people
will bo publicly nnd openly manifested.
