It Is strange that the lesson com-
mittee should have selected the title
“Early Leaders of Israel” when only
Moses appears. A better title would
have been "Moses, the Leader of
Israel.” In such a case consideration
should be given to Moses’ life, char-
acter and teaching. Indeed, a good
method of review Would be to use this
plan for the quarter's lessons. An-
other method of review would be to
give * synthetic view of the book of
Exodus, since all the lessons of the
quarter are taken from that book.
However, for the senior aBd adult
classes the best method will be to re-
call the principal fact and then state
the leading lesson of each Sunday's
lesson of the quarter. To aid in thia,
the following suggestions are given:
Lesson for July 4.
When the time drew nigh for God
*-j dilirli'rfiM chosen people He
caused them to multiply greatly. Envy
and alarm Incited the new king to In-
stitute measures to check Israel's In-
crease. The attempt to carry these
measures out not only displayed their
futility but brought to be sheltered
an^ nurtured In the king's palace the
very one who later upaet I'haraoh’e
throne.
Lesson for July 11:
When Moses was born, his mother
perceived that he was a child of
destiny. The king's edict was that
every male child should be destroyed,
but the faith of his mother moved her
to hide him. When no longer able to
hide him he was preserved In gn ark
of bulrushes and taken in charge by
Phiiraoh’s daughter. At the sugges-
tion of Miriam, his mother was called
as a nurse. He was educated both at
his mother’s knee find in the Egyptian
court. ,
Leaaon for July 18.
While Moses was keeping Jethro’s
sheep. God appeared to him In a burn-
ing bush and commissioned him a de-
liverer of His people. Moses faltered
hut God patiently heard and met his
difficulties.
Leaaon for July 25.
In memory of the great deliverance
of Israel from bondage, the passover
was Instituted. All who" were under
the blood were saved from the de-
stroying angel:
Leaaon for August 1.
God permitted the Israelites to get
Into straitened circumstances after
leaving Egypt, In order to teach them
to trust Him and also to lay a snare
for the enemy.
Lesson for August A
Before going far Into the wilderness
the people lusted for the fleshpots of
Egypt. God answered their rourmur-
lugs by giving them quails and manna
to eat. Christ Is the true manna sent
