The quarter opens with the union of the
lribesnnder David. It was the dualact in
the ”retraction of a nation. Raven year:
and a hall he had reigned in Hebron, and he
was to reign thirty-three years in Jerusalem;
but his lirut duty was in complete its oou‘
quest from the Jcbusitea. It then became the
capital oi the nation, and, datpite the later
division between the tribes, it remained the
great Israelite center for ,l,l iii yearn, for
David cmquered the Jebusitel ill-l0 B. (5.,and
Titus destmyed Jeni-lam 70 A. D. But durv
ingsome fifty yeareot this period Jermalem
lay desolate, the people having been dismrsed
or taken into Babylon. Little by little in
the first six centurion of the Christian era a
new and inferior Jerusalem roan upon the
ruins oi the old, and today, 2,935 years after
David‘s conquest, Jerusalem remains the hope
of the lsraelites and a place of pious pilgrim-
age to Christiane-a continuing witnem oi
the fulfillment of prophecy.
The successive lemons of the quarter tell
us of the national union under David, the
bringing of the ark to Zion, the triumphs of
David by which he.secured peace to the peo—
ple, his sin, punishment, remittance and
death. The scene then suddenly changes.
The man oi war has cleared the way and
partially collected the materials, now the
man of peace is to build the temple anduaher
in the golden age of Jenisalem. Solomon
takes the kingdom, adds vastly to its wealth,
receives from God a special gilt of wisdom,
builds and dedicates the temple, and the
fame of bk wisdom is grut among all the
natiomoitheeast. This was thegoldenage
of Judaism, and here the devout Christian
and the patriotic Israelite alike would fain
pause and dwell lovingly on such a situation.
But the time was short. Solomon tinned
against light and knowledge. He had before
him the divine command not to “multiply
wives lost his heart turn away.” But he
the law, and soon it was said of
him that “his heart was not perfect with the
Lord his God, as was the heart of David, his
lather." He took wives of the neighboring
nations, though expressly forbidden to do so
(Dent. vii), and they lei him into idolatry.
“For Solomon went after Ashtoreth (or
Astute), the goddem of the Zidoniane. and
alter Mdcom, the abomination oi the Ammo-
uites,” imaginary deltlil, worshiped with ob-
aaene and disgusting ceremouiea
“Then did Solomon build a high place {or
Chemoeh, the abomination of limb. e r '
And likewise did he (or all his strange (that
is, foreign) wives, which burnt incense and
neriilce onto their gods," and the punish
meat came swiftly. God spared him for his
time, buttold himhisaonshouldlommoatoi

and successor oi Solomon, and all Israel in]-
