Lesson for November 21 JOSHUA RENEWING THE COVEN- NANT LESSON TEXT—Josh. 4:11-12. GOLDEN TEXT—Choose you this day when you will serve, but as for the and my house, we will serve the 1. I. Joshua Reharing the History of the Nation (v. 1-13). This was his far more address, the history of his people. He began with Abraham's breaking with his religion, homeland, relatives and friends, at the command of God, and traced his faith to the land of the hands of Moses and Aaron through the wilderness journey and showed God's providential dealing in his life. He also showed his and their marvelous blessings now in the land solely by the favor of God. 1. I. The People Elect the Lord as The King (v. 14). Joshua knew that the people were liable to lapse into idolatry, therefore he reviewed before them the history of the people, and he pooled to their sober choice as to whether they were going to remain faithful to him. He appealed to them for a rational consideration and judgment (v. 15). He placed before them four candidates upon which they could vote according to their relative media. (1) The Lord. (2) The gods worshiped by their ancestors in Chaldea. (3) The gods of the Amorites. Having placed before them these candidates, he urged them to make a 2. His own example in the matter (v. 15) led him to follow his appeal with his own example. He told them that his mind was already made up. He associated his household with himself. He knew that his family was not austere. The marriage was, not a harsh one. It had been talked over at home, therefore he was sent the sentiment of his family. B. The response of the people (Vv. 10-18) 10. The earnest appeal, accompanied by his own example had its desired effect. When they calmly considered the claims of the Lord as the answer to the question of overwhelming evidence in favor of the God of their fathers, they followed reasons for their choice: (1). The Lord brought us out of Egypt (v. 17). (2) He did great signs in our sight (v. 17). (S) He preserved us in all the way we went (v. 17). (4) He drove from before us all the people (v. 15). It would be, been very foolish, not to wait there, after he had experienced all this at the炎热 hands to have turned Him down. (5) Joahus reminds them of who God (v. 15). When they to think more seriously and deeply upon the matter, Joahus drew a somewhat dark picture of God's attributes which were most important to him. (1) He showed them that God is a Holy God. (2) That He is a Jesus God. He told them that God is a Holy God. (3) That He will not forgive. He did not mean by this that He was an ungrateful God, but that His nature was such that unless they follow Him, they would not be the means of their destruction. 6. Jehovah demands sincerity on their part (v. 20-28). 7. Jehovah practiced a practical proof of their profession. He no doubt knew full well that some had idols yet in their possession. He no doubt positioned (v. 24). They cannot avoid their determination to serve God and obey his voice. 11. The People Enter into a Gideon Covenant. 12. The clinching transaction of the meeting at Shechem. They entered into a formal covenant. Jehovah wrote down their agreement into book 11. He gave Jehovah a witness against them. As a further help, he took a large stone and set it up as a witness. These would serve Jehovah in their fighting again into idolatry.
