ISRAEL, A MISSIONARY NA- TION—Exodus, 19.1-6; Isalah, 43.9-11, 45.20-22. Golden Text—*Ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation."—Exodus, 19.6. Three months after Israel's miracu- lous escape from the bondage of Egypt the poor shepherd tribes reached Sinai. There the work of molding them into a great natlon, membered His promises to Abraham | when He called the religious ploneer to undertake missionary work by sending Moses to liberate the He- brews from their slavery in Egypt. There the foundations of their na- tional greatness were laid by Jeho- vah, giving unto them the code of jaws which formed them into a na- tion and which was the basis of their faith. Henceforth they were to be a separate people, united by the wor- ship of oné God, who had revealed Himself to Israel in a manner that impressed upon them the reallty of His divine existence, the power and majesty of God and His nearness and close fellowship with them as| His chosen nation. 1t was a solemn scene and moment | in the history of the new-born na tion, who could look back across the Red sea that buried their day of program for 1srael to Moses from the | burning mouxtain. They discovered | in the few words of the Almighty the reason for their separate existence preservation in the past and purpose in the coming centuries, for Jehovah selected them as a model nation and prototype for the whole of humanity. God had brought them not to Canaan but to “Hfmself.” He called them to a missionary nation, with a mis- sion to unify humanity and bring all nations into a spiritual brotherhood. el, at the very commencement of her history as a nation, was given a revelation of Jehovah. Every mem- twelve tribes who stood knew from the experi- le three months just past 4 providential guidance proved the presence and power of God had been their protectipn. The Lord made clear to the assembled multitude that the condition of retaining His watch- re and help during the future vears was conditioned upon their being obedient His commands. If they would keep faith with Jehovah, who, | through His loving care and strength, had saved them from their oppr and brought them in enjoy the freedom of a ther assured Isracl ssors o state, Jeovah, He had pre-{ and would nourish them | wn podsession, above all ion that Jehovah assigned was unique.

They were not 1y to represent God before men, but ¢ were to be the mediators for | with the Lord. Their mission called for them to be} holy nation, separated and dedi- | to the Almighty. Their separa- was necessary in order that| teachings of the moral prin- ciples, which they odied, should | remain undefiled and uncontaminated | throughout the surging waves of | y. Jehovah outlined their mis- | 1 before He gave to them the Ten | Commandments, which “are the axic morals, the summary of cthics, the itinerary of mankind, the framewerk of soe the vertebral “God called them a double A iy, as weil as a o recognize th hority 1mn of hur 3 1o be a missionary nation, who would reveal by their worship and service His desire to bless all other nations | would conform to His require- | . such as Isracl promised they do when He conferred upon the uni privilege of being gdom of priests and a holy na- em a ki tion.” “When the priest and the prophet ¢ 4 nation the people for whom | they minister to whom they prophesy are the other nations. Abra- ham’s call lies at the basis of Israel's electior in the plan of God,” who | gave to His chosen people a message for all the world. When God's peo- | ple forgot their mission and neglect- | ed to preserve themselves as His chosen and holy nation they were | punished by being driven into exile. | During all the months of their suf- fering Jehovah never forgot them. Eight centuries after He had select- ed ael to be His witnesses to ali| nations we find them at the lowest | point in their history, nost crush- | ed by the experiences of the exile, | which Jehovah used to revive and restore their spiritual life so that | | they could continue to witness for Him. Isaiah sought to inspire them with a vision of better days by de- | manding that all nations be called to | cmble before a “world court” and { present their evidence in favor of the rship had dem- false gods whose w onstrated its inefliciency and lack ! ! as of power. In that world tribunal the prophet culled for Judah to act as the w ness of Jehovah, whea all the facts| of the vgrious faiths are presented.) Although’ the ten tribes had disap- peared with the destruction of the northern kingdom, Isaizh summoned captive Judah, whose capital was in ruins, to take the witness stand be- fore all the nations and testify for Jehovah. The Jew throughout all his history has had a distinctive message. The message of Israel has been that of the Hebrew through all genera- tions: “There is but one God; then, the unity of that Godhead (as op- posed to those philosophers who as sumed a devotion); and that the world | was created by God; further, thatl there is but one world; and finally, that this world is directed in its course by the providence of God.” They have witnessed not only to the unity of God, but also to the blessed- ness of obediert service to Jehovah. They have testified to. the truthful- ness of His evelations, and been in- spired in the darkest hours of their history by the hope of the coming of the Messiah. While their message has been large- 1y spiritual, they have given a social message to the world. They have taught us “to give to the poor and weak what they require for life.” Israel's message has “forbid the use of false measures and false money.” They have condemned the separation of the children from their parents, of the wife from her husband, even if they are rightfully bought as slaves. | They have taught man to be compas- sionate toward animals and to ob- serve the Sabbath for rest, religious instruction and reflection upon man’s duty to God and his neighbor. Israel realized that the world’s hope depended upon man’s_correct rela- tionship with God. Whenever she failed God sent His messengers to call Israel to repentance, and through her testimony win a lost world. Isaiah’s summons, “Look untoMeand be ye saved, all the ends of the earth,” reveals the heart of God, and shows the missionary character of the chosen people. We owe not only the elements of our thought con- cerning God as supreme, as personal as righteousness to the divine reve- lations that have come to us through the history of Israel, but humanity is indebted to God's chosen .people for the sense of sin. It was burned in upgn the consciousness of the He- brew people that fidelity to the law of righteousness was the supreme thing in’ human life; how violation' of that law separated the offender from the brotherhood of the congre- gation. and from the fellowship of i s ¥ ball {in { known | D. | of the Junior Y. 'Sunday School Lesson God, and how the penalties of trans- gression came upon the wrongdoer like a swift-consuming fire. Beyond this there has run through the his- tory of Israel the hope of reconcilia- tion between God and man. Isarel has always pointed to the future as the time of hope. The world message for all nations that Isalah proclaimed contains the only hope for the world at this moment. It is only as the natlons of the earth, seeing how human society is again in danger of being disorganized by the destructive clash of conflicting national ide; i | tions, turn away from their sins and look unto the Lord that they can find the path to security, stability and strength in the the service of humanity. The mis- sionary work of Israel prepared for the mission of Jesus, who calls to men_ today, “Come unto Me, all ve that labor and are heavy laden,” to find rest through His salvation, se- curity and service. There is no other person who can save the world in this crisis. May we all heed the call to salvation of the prophet, who pointed to the coming of the Christ as the world's hope, when hé cried, “Look unto me and be ye sa . aul the ends of the eart! The one hope of spiritualiy uniting all men into a world brotherhood, which was Isracl's message and mission, is through the acceptance of God's offer of salvation to all who will call upon Him in sincerity and truth.
