L 3 ( 4i WEEKLY BIBLE COMMENT Laws 0 Man Versus BY WILLIAM E. CILKOY. D. D. ' Q HOW I love Thy 'law." de- clares the Psalmist in Psalm 119:97. It would be a remarkable state ment, if it were found anywhere else but in the Bible, and on the part cf anyone but a devout Is raelite. The good citizen, in the most law-abiding community, may have respect for the law He may obey it scrupulously, cr resist it, if he feels any of its provisions to be unjust. But he hardly feels any affection for it. Why, then, did the devout Is raelite profess such a deep and intense affection for the law? And Psalm 119:97 is only one cf a great many passages in the Old Testa ment that express the same emo tion and devotion. "IT was because "the law" to the devout Israelite represented the perfect ideal cf individual char acter and of the relations cf men to one another. It was the law cf God, the expression of God's will, inviting the deepest and highest thoughts and meditations cf the sincere, ana full cf won drous things (Psalm 119:18) It was the tragedy cf Israel that the law, which, to the noblest and the devout was concentrated in the purpose to love God with all the heart, soul, mind, and strength, became corrupted into a multi plicity of rites and observances that had lost any leal moral value.

Terms Rex Young, Auct. 05E? Owner i . . Laws of Goc the law. had become so corrupted in its observance by some that to heal a fellowman on the Sabbath was wrong, though it was not wrong to harbor hateful and mur derous thoughts against the Christ who did the healing. All law. whether of God or of man. is subject to such degrada tion. Men interpret and pervert the laws cf God to their own ends., presuming to attach divine sanc tion to their own purposes and enactments. The law that ought, to be the bulwark cf freedom, fori the maintenance of human rights' and the defense against wrongs, in the hands of dictators and! usurpers cf power, becomes an; instrument of oppression. 1 Over a great part cf the world., today this is what has happened.) "asses of men. who wish only to' live and 'work in peace, live in, fear, in fear of those who ought to be their protectors, if law and government had their prcper' validity. The laws cf man may fall far short cf the law of God as the perfect ideal, but insofar as they represent order, security andipro tection, we need an increasing vision of what law can be and ought to be We need a deeper respect for law in fulfilling its purpose. And insofar as law is a funda-, mental instrument of democracy, perhaps we need .a love of the law, akin to that cf the devout, Hebrew. 3 p. m. Service at Masonic Home. 5 p. m.

One of the symptoms of cur modern moral breakdown is the frequency with which the word "hell" is being used as an ex pletive in "polite" society. The modern novel, the modern play house, even some modern period icals have come to accept "hell" as just another punctuation mark. Unfortunately, a concept can not be made less hideous by it" 'requent use. Hell will remain hell whether we use the wore or not. And hell will remain hell whether we like the idea or not. It is said that ence when uobert Ingerscll launched into a lecture to prove conclusively that there is no hell, a half-intoxicated man rose and said: "Make it strong, E:b. There's a Tot cf us poor fellows depending "" vou. If vou are wrong, we're all lost. So be sure you prove it :.ear and plain." ST. LUKE'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH Canon Geo. St. G.
