The legion said the picture con-
tains "blatant and Continuing vio-

Throughout, it contains grossly sal-
acious dancing and indecent cos-
tuming. This picture is a challenge

Joash Repairs the Temple
A REVIVAL IS INSPIRED BY THE PRIEST JEHOIADA
Scripture—II Chronicles ff—f4
By NEWMAN CAMPBELL
THERE are so many charac-
ters in today's lesson, that we
will have to treat most of them
briefly arid concentrate on Joasii
and the events of his reign, as
his name heads the lesson. The
period covered was approximate-
ly 50 years, from the reign of
Jehoram to the death of Joash.
Jehoram was the oldest son of
Jehoshaphat and, according to
Chapter 2) of II .Chronicles, his
first act after becoming king was
to slay all his brothers. His wife
was a wicked woman, daughter
oF Ahab and Jezebel. He died of
an incurable disease after reign-
ing eight years.
His son, Ahaziah, succeeded
Jehoram and reigned less than a
year, having joined the king of
Israel to fight the Syrians. He
was wounded in battle and died
soon after He. like his father
and mother, was evil. His mother,
the wicked Alhaliah, succeeded
.him and reigned from 842 to 837
iB.C., and we know little about
l her reign except that she tried
i to destroy every male member of
| the royal house of, Judah. She al-
■ most succeeded. The little baby,
Joash. was spared only because
treason!” an odd thing for her to
cry who was capable of unapeak-
able treachery. She was promptly
killed by a band of'soldter*.
As he grew older, Joash, prob-
ably under the guidance of his
priestly uncle, Jehoiada, was
minded to repair the temple which
had been despoiled by enemies.
He gathered the Levites and
priests and told them to go out
throughout the country and
gather money. They were slow
about starting the work and
Joash chided them after his uncle
Jehoiada asked him why the
money was not forthcoming.
At the king's command they
made a chest, set it without the
gate of the house of the Lord,
and sent a proclamation through-
out all Judah (sometimes also
called "Israel"), to "bring in to
the Lord the collection that Moses
the servant of God laid upon Is-
rael in the wilderness.”
All the princes and .the people
were glad and brought their con-
tributions to the chest. When they
took it to the king, he and Jehoi-
aija hired workmen—masons and
carpenters—to repair the damage
that had been done. Workers in
iron and brass were also-brought.

REV. C. E. MARSHALL
Tastor
FIRST METHODIST CHURCH
’ Elton and Pauline Trueblood, in a i»ook titled "The Recov-
ery of Family Life,” pointed out a disturbing matter. They
said: "The sobering truth is that, in our conception of the
family and its place in a total society, we are producing, with-
out consideration and conscious intent, much that the Russian
planners have achieved by deliberate ideological emphasis. We
are doing by neglect much that the Markists have done by social
planning."
Modern American home life, according to these authors,
is gradually becoming less and less important to us, and that
is a tragedy.
The sad result is that the family "withers away", to use
Communist phraseology. The devaluation of the family that is
a deliberate Dart <jf the Soviet.program is accomplished. The
"Communist Manifesto” spoke of "the bourgeois claptrap about
the family and education, about the hallowed correction of par-
ent and child - - - The bourgeois family will vanish as a matter
of course.” And here is American home life breaking down
according to the Communist pattern.
Now, it is true, certainly the rebuilding of the family is
one of our most important tasks. For home and freedom go
together. The American idea has its roots deep in the Ameri-
can home. And the Christian ideal of life and society has its
roots far down in the Christian home. Indeed, the doorway to
the home of men is the doorway to personal happiness and a
sountd social order.
Christian homes are most powerful weapons against an
evil world, and especially against Communism.
Let us attend church Sunday in appreciation of our Ameri-
can Christian homes and in memory of the homes in which we
lived as children.

MEMORY VERSE
“Brinij sacrifices and thank offerings into the house Of the
Lord —II Chronicles 29:JI.
his aunt, JchoshaKcath . secreted
him in a chamber of the palace,
and cared for him until he was
seven years old
Now there was in Judah a
faithful priest named Jehoiada,
whose Wife' was this same Je-
hoshabeatli who rescued Joash
from death. Thus he was the
uncle of Joash. He was able to
get the allegiance ofjhe stronger
members of the country, the Le-
vites and princes, and all came
together and planned how they
could raise the descendant of
David to the throne.
They were divided Into three
groups, one placed at1 the doors
of the temple I we imagine), one
at the king s palace, and one at a
certain gate of the palac* Jehoi-
ada warned his followers that no
one was to be allowed to enter
the house of the Lord except the
priests. Weapons from David's
time were issued, and than they
brought out the little boy, Joash.
put a crown upon his head,
arfointed him and all cried, "God
sa ve the-king.’’
Queen Athalikh must have been
amazed and aiarmed when ahe
saw; this 1 jfclld ahve when ahe
thought she had eliminated all the
line of David. She cried, "Treason,
I and with the money left over vea-
I sels of gold and silver were
fashioned to minister in the tem-
ple Then -they offered burnt
offerings in the house of the Lord.
The good priest grew old and
died at the age of 130 years, and
was buried in Jerusalem among
the kings, because he "had done
good in Israel, both toward God,
and toward, Hia house."
'■ Sad to relate, after the death
of Jehoiada, Joash was persuaded
to depart frclm the faith of his
fathers and to serve idols. Zecha-
riah. son of the saintly Jehoiada
came to Om king asking him why
he had Uiua transgressed the
Lord's oommtndmenu ’ warning
him that be could not prosper if
he forsook the Lord Joash. for-
getting all the kindness of his
uncle, fsther Of Zachariah, com-
manded Ms court to stone the
priest.
The 8yrlane came op against
Judah "and the Lord delivered a
very great host into their hand."
Joash was Ul. His own servants
eonaptrad against him and killed
him on Ms etch bed
8uch was the tragic end of «
man who. had be bean true to hia
God. might have been a happy,
successful king beloved by all hie
people
