Ticket Agent 6i!BGn BIBLE SCHOOL LESSON Sunday, July 1, 1928 i By M. 4- Golden Text: "Remember now thy creator in the days of thy youth.' Eccl. 12:1, Saul of Tarsus the Boy Like many other boys of Tarsus, Saul, who was one of the brightest iboys of his day and age, was a town boy, and like every one of his time played in the streets and became ac quainted with all the lore of the ur chin, as well as with the ways of business commerce, and all the things which the young lad of our day and time knows, notwithstanding we are wont to say the lad of six today knows more than many of twenty did a century ago. Of course there were not the dis coveries and inventions in the day of Saul as there are at this time, but Saul was different from the boys who lived in rural or remote districts and wise in the ways of the city. Tarsus was as Saul said in later years no mean city, he meaning by tnis tnai t was a town of much import, and as it was a sea port, there was mucn commerce going and coming from the then known worlu. True, there were no Lindberghs in that day, nor was there the automobile, but learn ing was a science, and many were there of the scholastic profession. but the teaching was different and knowledge was acquired differents. Books had not been invented, as in our day, but withal one could acquire a good education if he were so dis posed. The Scriptures had been preserved for many hundreds of years and there was an opportunity for one to be con versant with the commands of God, and with the history of the Israelites, as well as with the advance of science and discovery, but the written know ledge of that age was on rolls of paper, and had to be done by hand, which accounted for the scarcity of books and the necessity of one learn ing thoroughly the things which he was to commit. This lesson begins with the 4th verse of the Sixth chapter of the book of Deuteronomy, pening with a command, "Hear, O Israel." This command was to'" all people and it was intended that -all give ear to the command, and continued with the ad monition: "Jehovah, our God is one Jehovah. Thou shalt love Jehovah, thy God. with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. And these words which I command thee this day shall be upon thy hecrt. Thou shalt teach them unto thy children, and shalt talk them when thou sittest in thy house and when thou walkest by the way. And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thy hand and they shall be as front lets between thine eyes. And thou shalt write them on the door posts of thy house and on thy gate?." Beginning of an Education The commands were given that they might be obeyed, and 'the pro visions just, enumerated were that there might not be any doubt but all should know them. The above por tion of the scriptures are one of four selections which are known as the phylacteries, and which they were commanded to bind on the forehead in a roll and on the left arm. They were placet! alongside the door and when one v ent in or came out of the house they v. ere to be touched and thought of that the commands of Jehovah might be remembered. Then the finger was kissed and placed on the receptacle containing them. From this ancient custom has grown the habit of kissing the Bible as a wit ness of the truth of man's inten tions or to seal his obligations. It was in such an atmosphere that Saul of Tarsus grew to the age of .twelve or thirteen, when he was sent afto Jerusalem to study under a doctor of the law. and it fell to his lot to have Gamaliel, who was one of the very ablest of the Jewish teachers. The matter of the commands were instilled into the children that they n,Wht nnt lwnme contaminated bv the" heathen teachings and customs of ne surrounding countries. It was this inculcation of the word of the law which made Saul so bitterly op posed to the teaching when Christ came to preach brotherly love and proclaim that it was not necessary to exact an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. This made of Saul a bitter zealot to persecute the early church, and when he did this and kept the clothes of Stephen when the Jews stoned him to death, he was act ing from impulses and the belief that he was protecting the purity of the worship of Jehovah. 1 Then followed the conversion of Saul, and when he had "found" him self, he was as eager to undo the S. Brltcgs harm which he had caused and to , do something for the Master whom hej had crucified as he had been bent on persecution of the early Christians .before his conversion. I Then came the persecution of Saul, in like manner as he had persecuted the church in the other years, and when arrested, in making defense for himself, he said: "Circumcised on the eight day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews, and as touching zeal, perse cuting the church and as touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless," for Saul had observed in every way the letter of the law. . i Saul a Roman Citizen ! When he was arrested and was be ing flogged for the preaching of Jesus, the Christ, and was liable like some of his former victim of being stoned to death, he asserted his Ro man citizenship. The chief captain asked, "Art thou a Roman citizen?" Saul answered, "Yes." Then the captain said "With a great price pur chased my freedom," but Saul i-aiil "I was born free." Saul was pleased that he. could THE OPENING OF THE MURRAY Bathing Beach i We are ready for the "plunge." An abund ance of pure water, always fresh and sanitary.

On the other hand, he said, "I am a Jew," willing to claim the truth and stand on it. There are those Mho claim in a timid way, "I am a Christian," but who when persecution comes for the Word's sake, like Peter of old, forget that they are sons whom the blood of Christ has purchased, and made free indeed.
