Earlier text: MOUTH GERMSLESSON VII.—SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1897.
NOTE.—Paul arrived at Rome in the early part of A.D. 61, and remained a prisoner until about the same time in A.D. 63. The city of Rome, with a population of 2,000,000, was the center of a national population of 120,000,000. Through her conquests, her vigorous government, her road-building and the unity of language which her conquests induced, the way was opened for the spread of the Gospel. The inhabitants of the city of Rome at the time of Paul's imprisonment were reveling in every kind of debauchery, in which the emperor Nero himself took such a flagrant part as to shame even his depraved subjects. In the present lesson section will be included the list of Christians to whom Paul sent greetings (Rom. 16: 3-15); the four epistles written during his first captivity (Ephesians, Colossians, Philemon, and Philippians); and the references to his later life in the three epistles written during his second captivity (1 Timothy, Titus, and 2 Timothy.) 17 "And it came to pass, that after three days he called together those that were the chief of the Jews; and when they were come together, he said unto them, I, brethren, tho I had done nothing against the people, or the customs of our fathers, yet was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans; who, when they had examined me, desired to set me 19 at liberty, because there was no cause of death in me. But when the Jews spake against it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar; not that I had aught to accuse my nation of. 20 For this cause therefore did I entreat you to see and to speak with me; for because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this 21 chain. And they said unto him, We neither received letters from Judea concerning thee, nor did any of the brethren come hither and report or speak any harm of thee. But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest; for as concerning this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against.
23 "And when they had appointed him a day, they came to him into his lodging in great number; to whom he expounded the matter, testifying the kingdom of God, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses and from 24 the prophets, from morning till evening. And some believed 25 the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved. And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by 26 Isaiah the prophet unto your fathers, saying,
Go thou unto this people, and say,
By hearing ye shall hear, and shall in nowise understand;
And seeing ye shall see, and shall in nowise perceive;
For this people's heart is waxed gross,
And their ears are dull of hearing,
And their eyes they have closed;
Lest haply they should perceive with their eyes,
And hear with their ears,
And understand with their heart,
And should turn again,
And I should heal them.
28 Be it known therefore unto you, that this salvation of God is 29 sent unto the Gentiles; they will also hear. And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, having much disputing among themselves.
30 "And he abode two whole years in his own hired dwelling, 31 and received all that went in unto him, preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, none forbidding him." Golden Text: "I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ; for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth." Rom. 1: 16. (1) What occurred three days after Paul reached Rome? Verse 17. (2) When the chief of the Jews came together, what did Paul say to them? Same verse. Note 1. (3) What did he say of his trial before the Romans? Verse 18. (4) What did he say was the reason for his appeal to Caesar? Verse 19. (5) What was not one of his reasons? Same verse. Note 2. (6) Why did he call them together? Verse 20. (7) What was the occasion for his imprisonment? Same verse. Note 3. (8) What reply did the Jews make to Paul's statement? Verse 21. (9) What did they desire of Paul? Same verse. (10) What had they heard of the sect to which Paul belonged? Same verse. (11) What interest was taken by the Jews in what Paul had to say to them? Verse 22. (12) At this meeting what line of argument did Paul take up? Same verse. (13) From what did Paul draw proofs for the positions which he held? Same verse. (14) How long did this remarkable meeting continue? Same verse. (15) What effect did Paul's preaching have upon his hearers? Verse 24. (16) In what frame of mind were they still at the time of their departure? Verse 25. (17) What words of inspiration did Paul apply to them? Verses 25, 26, 27. Note 4. (18) Seeing that this prophecy was fulfilled in them, what did Paul say of the Gentiles? Verse 28. (19) How was Paul occupied during his imprisonment at Rome? Verses 30, 31. (20) What difference is noticed in his preaching while a prisoner in Rome and his preaching before going there? Verse 31. Note 5. 1. I had done nothing against . . . the customs of our fathers.—Here is evidence from the apostle's own lips, near the close of his life, that Paul was not a Sabbath-breaker; for the observance of the seventh-day Sabbath was one of the customs of the fathers. On the other hand, he declared (Acts 20: 20, 27), "I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you." "I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God." Yet he never tells us that the weekly Sabbath was abrogated, or that the first day should be kept in its stead. Such testimony from the apostle to the Gentiles should have due weight. 2. Not that I had aught to accuse my nation of.—Paul was not an "accuser of the brethren." God does not call his servants for that purpose. His design was to reach the Jews, that he might preach the Gospel to them. He did not wish the Jews in Rome to think that he had come to Rome to accuse their people. If he had come for such purpose, he would lose his influence with them at once. Such a course would be "contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth," and that course Paul had abandoned. Acts 26: 9. 3. Because of the hope of Israel I am bound.—Paul in this statement denies the accusation of the Jews whose course at Jerusalem had sent him in chains to Rome. He was not opposing the hope of Israel, but was preaching to Israel that her hope had been realized. The Jews for centuries had been looking for and hoping for the Messiah and the reign of peace. They were and are still looking for him. Paul held he had come already in their day. Here was the difference between his preaching and their belief; and he, tho bound by the chains of Rome, had, and was anxious to give to them, the hope of Israel. 4. The Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet.—The testimony of inspiration through Paul to the inspiration of Isaiah. 5. No man forbidding.—Altho a prisoner in chains, it seems that Paul had never enjoyed greater freedom in preaching the Word of God. He had always preached with boldness, but he had been forbidden again and again by the rulers of the Jews, and had met much opposition among the Gentiles. Here no man could interfere with his work, and here he did a work that will live as long as the world stands, the writing of at least five of his wonderful epistles. He was given an opportunity here to do a work for those who should live after him, that the arduous duties of a traveling evangelist might not have given him an opportunity to perform. This volume has been published to assist parents, guardians, and teachers in the religious instruction of those under their charge, by enabling them to place in their hands a book which would reverently tell the Bible story. The one object that has been kept steadily in view throughout its preparation, has been to present a connected narrative of the sacred events, consecutively arranged in the order of their occurrence. The book contains 558 pages, with 280 illustrations. PRICE, Cloth, $1.00. Address,

Address, PACIFIC PRESS, Oakland, Cal. —It has been announced that Spain will send 5,000 more troops to Cuba before the close of October. —A bill has passed the Senate of Peru which provides for the legalizing of non-Catholic marriages. It is expected to become a law. —The king of Korea has proclaimed his nation an empire, giving himself the title of emperor, thus declaring his independence of the suzerainty of China. —A collision on the Canadian Pacific Railway near Stittsville, Ontario, on October 14, between a freight and express train, resulted in the death of four men. —Two squadrons of native British lancers were surprised by members of the Hill tribes near Bara, India, on October 18, losing fifteen men and twenty-seven horses killed. —The English Government has formally expressed to United States Ambassador Hay its refusal to join in the monetary conference proposed, or to reopen the silver mints of India. —A report from India states that the cholera has attacked a battalion of the Shropshire regiment, and that forty non-commissioned officers and privates have already succumbed. —The Belgian Antarctic expedition which sailed from Antwerp on July 25 and was to have called at South American ports, has not been heard from, and fears are entertained of the safety of that expedition. —The striking engineers of England have prepared a manifesto to American newspapers and labor organizations appealing for money to enable them to keep from yielding to the demands of their employers. —After ten months of Protestant work in England, Scotland, and Ireland, Father Chiniquy, the ex-Romish priest, is returning to America. He is nearly eighty-nine years old, but is still waging vigorous warfare against Catholicism. —Lieutenant Henry, of the Kongo Free State, in a pitched battle with the mutinous native Manyema soldiers near Lake Albert Nyanza, killed 400 of their number, and the rest are reported to have fled to the mountains, where they are starving. —The attempt of the king of Siam while in Europe to create sufficient influence in behalf of his country to enable him to free himself from the position of a French vassal has been unsuccessful, none of the powers being willing to give more than their moral support to his petition for independence. —The historic town of Windsor, Nova Scotia, was almost entirely destroyed by fire on October 17, the fire raging so fiercely that the fire department was absolutely powerless to contend with it. Over 3,000 persons were rendered shelterless by the conflagration. The pecuniary loss is estimated at $3,000,000. —It is now denied that the revolutionary leaders of Guatemala have fled from the country. Their inactivity is said to be a part of a plan entered into between themselves and Leon del Castillo by which the government forces are to be outwitted and defeated. Castillo is marching toward the capital from the east. —Primo de Rivera, the Spanish captain-general of the Philippines, has been making overtures to the rebels to induce them to lay down their arms. The rebels have replied to these overtures, demanding extensive amnesty to begin with, and a full pardon eventually, as they desire to take no chances in submitting to Spanish authority. —The government of Portugal has instructed its representative in Honolulu to interpose no objection to the proposed absorption of the islands by the United States. A committee representing 16,000 resident Portuguese in the islands presented Senator John T. Morgan with a draft of resolutions favoring annexation to the United States. —A severe and hotly contested battle was fought between the English forces and the insurgent tribesmen in the hills of the Samana range near Fort Lockhart, India, on October 20. The tribesmen were repulsed, but not until after they had inflicted serious losses on the British, scores of whom were killed and wounded in carrying the insurgent position. —A terrible shipwreck occurred off the northwest coast of Cuba on the morning of October 16. The Spanish ship Triton, with about 150 passengers on board, struck a rock in a heavy rain-storm and sank in 120 fathoms of water. Some were saved by swimming ashore, and others were rescued by tugboats; but it is estimated that not less than 150 were drowned. —A correspondent writing from Korea states that there is no doubt but what Russia and Japan are preparing for war. Russia is securing coaling stations along the coast, has 100,000 soldiers concentrated near Vladivostok, and has secured a controlling influence in Korean affairs, while Japan is surveying the Korean coast, strengthening her garrisons and her fighting force. —It is reported that General Weyler has refused to give over authority as captain-general of Cuba to his duly appointed successor, Castellanos, although peremptorily ordered to do so by the Spanish premier. Weyler demanded that his successor should sign a statement to the effect that the four western provinces of Cuba had been pacified. This Castellanos refused to do, knowing the true condition of affairs in those provinces. —It is reported that at the town of Los Palacios, Cuba, 5,000 persons have died of starvation between May and October 1st. Over three thousand of the starving pacificos of Matanzas City, after vainly petitioning the governor for food, made a concerted attack on the food stores of the garrison, overpowered the guard, and succeeded in sacking the markets. They were then attacked by the militia, and over one hundred men, women, and children were shot down or macheted. —Rev. J. L. Bruce, in speaking of the condition of the people of Brazil, says: "The intellectual, physical, moral, and religious condition of this people is sad. In Brazil as a whole eighty-five per cent. are illiterate." For a description of the morals of this Catholic country he refers to the first chapter of Romans, and further says: "Religiously, we have to declare and continue to declare to the people that a Christian and a libertine, a Christian and a robber, a Christian and a liar, are incompatible things. The priests have not learned this, and a large part of the people have never had an idea that they were not good Christians if they subjected themselves to the church and the priests, even though their lives may be corrupt beyond description." —Charles A. Dana, the well-known New York editor, was buried at Glen Cove, N. Y., on October 20. —A general conference of Catholic archbishops convened at Washington on October 19 to consider the policy and administration of the church in America. —The gunboat Detroit has been sent to the eastern coast of Guatemala for the purpose of protecting American interests there during the rebellion now in progress. —George M. Pullman, the millionaire palace-car manufacturer, died at his home in Chicago on the morning of October 19. He is said to have left a fortune of nearly $40,000,000. —Admiral John L. Worden, who commanded the Monitor in her duel with the Confederate ram Merrimac in Hampton Roads, died at his home in Washington, D. C., on October 18. —New York's pneumatic mail tube has been given an official test and proved eminently satisfactory. The carriers, weighing twelve pounds, were sent at the rate of a mile in thirty seconds. —Alexander de Soto, a lineal descendant of the explorer, will head an expedition, under the auspices of the New York Bowery Mission, to carry the Gospel into the Klondike mining regions. —Hon. John M. Kasson, of Iowa, has been chosen by President McKinley to have charge of negotiations with foreign countries in matters of reciprocity, especially affecting international commerce. —The dome of the Robinson Opera House at Cincinnati fell in upon the occupants of the theater on the evening of October 15, killing three persons and injuring more or less seriously thirty others. —Examination of the moon through the new Yerkes telescope is said to disprove the proposition put forward by eminent French astronomers that the moon is inhabited and that rivers can be seen upon it. —The annual report of the third assistant postmaster-general shows an excess of expenditures over receipts for the year of $11,411,779, being about $3,000,000 more than the deficiency for the preceding year. —A decision of the Supreme Court handed down on October 18 renders void the claims of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company to nearly three-quarters of a million acres of land in southern California. —The appeal of the case of the San Francisco murderer, W. H. T. Durrant, to the Supreme Court of the United States, will be heard by that tribunal on November 15, and a decision rendered within thirty days from that date. —Secretary Gage has overruled Attorney-General McKenna's construction of the discriminating clause in the new tariff schedules, and the duty of ten per cent, charged against goods coming into the United States from foreign countries through Canada or Mexico, is to be collected. —A mysterious, poisonous plant has been discovered near Circle City, Alaska, to taste which means a loss of consciousness for several weeks, if the report given by a returned prospector is authentic. L. Goth, of Seattle, Wash., partook of this plant and experienced this peculiar effect, together with almost complete muscular paralysis. —At the Christian Alliance meeting in New York on October 17 Rev. A. B. Simpson secured donations for the support of foreign missionaries to the extent of $78,000. A donation of similar proportions was secured by the same speaker at a meeting of this body in Maine one year ago. —It is reported that steps are now being taken to postpone the foreclosure sale of the Union Pacific road in the hope that higher bids may be received than the $50,000,000 guaranteed by the reorganization syndicate, to accept which it is claimed that the government would lose $22,000,000. —The Secretary of War has issued an order creating a military reservation in Alaska, including St. Michael Island and contiguous territory within a radius of 100 miles of the flagstaff on that island. A tract of land at Tanana has also been taken possession of for a military reservation. —One of the clerks of the Treasury department has been caught extracting silver dollars from the bags of coin in the vault and substituting their weight in lead. This occurrence will necessitate the recounting of $100,000,000, at an expense to the government of $25,000, and will occupy six months. —There is little change in the fever situation in the south, except a slight increase in the number under treatment. Several cases and one death are reported from Montgomery, Alabama. There have been reported during the week 214 new cases, with 21 deaths, at the principal centers of the disease. —The remarkable speed of two miles in sixty-six seconds was developed by the Hollman friction-geared locomotive, carrying a train of three cars, in a trial run between Camden, N. J., and Cape May, on October 14. This is the fastest time on record. A measured mile the same afternoon was carried in forty-two seconds. .. LIST AND PRICES ..
