cted she should be better esteemed if she bare him children: so she entreated God perpetually; and when she had borne a son, and her husband was on that account better reconciled to her, she named her son Reubel, because God had had mercy upon her, in giving her a son, for that is the signification of this name. After some time she bare three more sons; Simeon, which name signifies that God had hearkened to her prayer. Then she bare Levi, the confirmer of their friendship. After him was born Judah, which denotes thanksgiving. But Rachel, fearing lest the fruitfulness of her sister should make herself enjoy a lesser share of Jacob's affections, put to bed to him her handmaid Bilha; by whom Jacob had Dan: one may interpret that name into the Greek tongue, a divine judgment. And after him Nephthalim, as it were, unconquerable in stratagems, since Rachel tried to conquer the fruitfulness of her sister by this stratagem. Accordingly, Lea took the same method, and used a counter-stratagem t

r years." Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week. He gave him Rachel his daughter as wife. Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah, his handmaid, to be her handmaid. He went in also to Rachel, and he loved also Rachel more than Leah, and served with him yet seven other years. Yahweh saw that Leah was hated, and he opened her womb, but Rachel was barren. Leah conceived, and bore a son, and she named him Reuben. For she said, "Because Yahweh has looked at my affliction. For now my husband will love me." She conceived again, and bare a son, and said, "Because Yahweh has heard that I am hated, he has therefore given me this son also." She named him Simeon. She conceived again, and bare a son. Said, "Now this time will my husband be joined to me, because I have borne him three sons." Therefore was his name called Levi. She conceived again, and bare a son. She said, "This time will I praise Yahweh." Therefore she named him Judah. Then she stopped bearing.

I will divide them in Jacob, Scatter them in Israel. "Judah, your brothers will praise you: Your hand will be on the neck of your enemies; Your father's sons will bow down before you. Judah is a lion's whelp. From the prey, my son, you have gone up. He stooped down, he couched as a lion, AsJudah is a lion's whelp. From the prey, my son, you have gone up.

Oh! for the tongue of a prophet, to paint for you what is before you, unless you repent and turn to the Lord, and realize that His hand is upon all them for good that seek him. The language of Scripture is alone adequate to describe it: The earth mourneth and languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed and hewn down: Sharon is like a wilderness.

hence the body of Heliogabalus was cast into the Tiber, a stone about his neck, about A. D. 218. It was called the Pons Sublicius, from its having been built upon stakes, or piles. The original bridge was built about the time of Josiah, king of Judah, and a few years previous to Nebuchadnezzar. The Pontus Salarius was erected by Tarquinius Priscus, about 600 B. C. It spanned the Teverone, and is believed to have had three arches of stone. Doubts have been suggested as to the authenticity r obstinate bulls, and occasionally to fasten or hitch them. A passage in Ezekiel shows that lions and camels were similarly led about, and that prisoners and captives were treated in the same way. Manasseh, the vicious and unfortunate king of Judah, was thus led by the nose, and carried away captive, 677 B. C., by the captain of the host of the king of Assyria. Repenting in exile, he was restored, and died in peace in Jerusalem. A bas-relief, discovered by Layard at Khorsabad, shows tha

behold, the battle was before and behind; and they cried unto the Lord, and the priests sounded with the trumpets. --Then the men of Judah gave a shout; and as the men of Judah shouted, it came to pass that God smote Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah. And Abijah and his people slew them with a great slaughter, so that there fell down slain of Israel five hundred thousand chosen men. 2 Chron. 13: 3, 4, 8, 10-17. And Asa had an army of men that bare targets and spears, out of Judah three hundred thousand; and out of Benjamin, that bare shields and drew bows, two hundred and four score thousand: all these were mighty men of valor. And there came out against them Zerah the Ethiopian, with a host of a thousand, and three hundred chariots. Then Asa went out against him, and they set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah. And Asa cried unto the Lord his God, and said, Lord, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no

chres, and the corruption within, are the same in both. But the twelve tribes were independent of each other, God being their only governor; and when, on one occasion, they proposed to make war upon a refractory tribe, they were forbidden. Even under a king when a large number of the tribes rebelled, and the king assembled an army of 180,000 men to reduce the rebels to subjection, "The word of God came unto Shemaiah, the man of God, saying, Speak unto Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and unto all the house of Judah and Benjamin, and to the remnant of the people, saying, Thus saith the Lord, ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren, the children of Israel."--We are, therefore, unable to see anything in the Hebrew Constitution, or the administration thereof, which entitles the Sons of the Pilgrims to consider themselves the chosen people. There is nothing in common between the two except those peculiar sins of the children of Israel which induced the Almighty
