CALL OF THE PROPHET
The International Uniform Sunday School Lesson for Oct 2ft
The Call of the Prophet.—I Kings 10: 10, 20; Amos 7s 14, 1ft
lsniali O: 1-8. <
So he departed thence, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who wu
plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth:
and Elijah passed by him. and cast his mantle upon him.
And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said. Let me, 1 pray
thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow thee. And
he said unto him. Go back again: for what have 1 done to thee?
Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither
was I a prophet’s son; but I was an herdman, and a gatherer of syca-
more fruit:
And the Lord took me as I followed the flock, and the Lord said
unto me. Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.
In the year that King Uzzlah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon
a throne, high and lifted up. and his train filled the temple.
Above it stood the seraphim: each one had six wings; with twain he
covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain
he did fly.
And one cried unto another, and said. Holy, holy, holy Is the Lord
of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and
the house was filled with smoke.
Then said I. Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of
unclean lips, and I dwell In the midst of a people of unclean lips: for
mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts.
Then flew one of the seraphim unto me. having a live coal In his
hand, which he had taken with the tongs from oft the altar:
And he laid it upon my mouth and said. Lo. this hath touched thy
lips; and thine Iniquity Is taken away, and thy sin purged.
Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying. Whom shall I send, and
who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I: send me.

TMIE passages chosen for our les-
■*- son reveal to us much more
than the circumstances of the call
of three different men to be
prophets. They may be said
rather to suggest or typify the na-
ture of the prophetic impulse and
the way in which the call comes
to men in general.
In two instances of the three
the circumstances are not dissimi-
lar. The call came to Elisha while
he was plowing with oxen in the
field. To Amos the calkcame when
he was attending to his duties as
a herdsman and a gatherer of
fruit. In the case of Isaiah the
call to the prophetic function
seemed more in accordance with
what we might expect. It came
whilp he was at worship, in a
vision that corresponded to his de-
votional mood.
The Cali
These indications of the way in
which God called men to great
prophetic service in the past are
exceedingly important for today.
We might be disposed to say that
those who have been accorded a
distinctive place in the record of
the world’s great prophets were
surely specially prepared for their
task.
One might even lay a certain
stress upon the identification in
ancient Israel of prophecy with
vigorous out-of-doors life in field
and vineyard. How often even in
the cities, where men congregate,
the really prophetic voice has
come from the country or from
the wilderness! It is out in the
open spaces where men feel some-
thing of the vastness of the uni-
verse and the greatness of God; it
is in the elemental experience of
daily living as men produce the
means of life from the soil; that
they come to real and clear per-
ceptions of value.
It was some such rugged clear-
ness of vision with a power to see
things without sophistication and
corruption that Elisha was
brought from his driving of oxen
to the larger office of the prophet.
As he had learned to plow a
straight furrow so his new task
was characterized by a simple di-
rectness of purpose.
So also Amos brought from the
.fields‘a deep end wide range ol
vision.
The true spirit of the prophet
is revealed in the profound sense
of duty that moved all three ol
these men. We find It empha-
sized in their great individuality,
in their lack of all pretense, and
in tlieir emphasis upon the pro-
phetic purpose rather than upon
the mere outward office and any
supposed distinction that might
be attached to it.
Moreover, the spirit of the
prophet is emphasized in the di-
rectness with which they obeyed
the call as it came. It is one
thing to hear a call even from
God. It is quite another thing tc
obey It. The prophet never standi
forth in effectiveness until having
heard the call and having sensed
the need, he replies in humility
as well as In courage “Here am
1; send me.”
