Trar d ition h o ld s tha t Baruch was carried to Babylon, where he wrote the apocryphal. “ Book of Baruch,” and died in 574, B.C„ twelve years after the fall o f Jerusalem. Our golden text for this lesson Is found in Psalms 119:105, “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and light unto my path.” * * * OUR BIBLE <4»T»HEN Jeremiah called Baruch, X the son of Neriah, and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words o f the Lord, which he had spoken- unto him, upon a roll of a book. And Jere­ miah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up; I cannot go Into the house o f the Lord. Therefore go thou, and read in the roll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words o f the Lord in: the ears of the people in the Lord’s house upon the fasting day; and also thou shalt read them in the ears o f all Judah that come out o f the cities,” Jeremiah 36:4-8. How did w® get our BiJIe? Through this simple process o f God speaking through his appointed prophet, and by the faithful work of men like Baruch who served as scribes. * * * THIS SCRIBE OP LONG AGO I N the introductory paragraph X _Sketched briefly the story o f Baruch. He was a trained man, trusted and beloved. This he had to be, else God would not have ap­ proved Jeremiah’s selection of Bar­ uch to copy what he was saying for God. And not only was he se­ lected to write down what God was saying, through his prophet, but he was used to proclaim the words of God to the people in the Lord’s house. Baruch was amanuensis, reader and distributor o f the Bible —a distinguished role, indeed. Let us today be gladly ready to read the Bible to others, and to distribute and circulate the Scriptures wherev­ er we may. Here I pause to pay tribute to the American Bible So­ ciety and all others. Including the Gideons, who help to make the Bible known to all men everywhere. * * a A MAN ON WHOM GOD COUNTED f jAfcLUS we sea that Baruch was X a man on whom God counted. His work was done well, and we read that, “When they heard all the words, they were afraid both one and other, and said unto Baruch, tWe will surely tell the king o f all these words.” Young people will do well to pon­ der this incident.* In the varied contacts o f young Christians in this modem day, we may be used o f the Holy Spirit in making known the words o f God in countless ways. Thus, like Baruch, you may be used of God to make known his will unto all mankind. m * * BARUCH, A COURAGEOUS SCRIBE n nH E full context reveals the fact x that Baruch exhibited courage as well as faithfulness in his serv­ ice as scribe to Jeremiah. It was not an easy task. Nor will it be easy to fill our posts as couriers o f the Good News. But it was a rewarding experience for Baruch. He served his day and generation according to the will o f God. Mr. Henry Ford, Sr., believed in having a copy of the Bible near at hand wherever he might sit down in his home. I heard him say once that he had a Bible on every table in his home. “ I do this In order that I may reach over and spend a few minutes with the Lord wherever I may sit down. And I always cher­ ish the hope that others will find it a lamp unto their feet and a light along their daily pathway.4* Let us give thanks for Baruch— the trusted friend who served Jere­ miah, and thus served God. » • • (Copyright J st tint fa tm a tb a a l Cba a d l of RtSgloat EdncaBo* os balaif of 40 Protasfcxoi dtHXsmlnaticmT.
