CHAPTER TWO His Anointing 1 Samuel 16 and 17 In our last chapter we called attention to the time in which David’s lot was cast. The spirituality of Israel had indeed fallen to a low ebb.

Reading: Eph. 4:1–16,30–32; Ps. 133. Here we have a Psalm which, on the one hand, presents an imperfect or partial entering into the spirit of the blessing of which it speaks, and, on the other hand, a prophecy; a type and prophecy of the full blessing to come, and a present but imperfect enjoyment ...

An Appeal To The People Of God Ezra 8.
