hat Israel is to do to be Gods truepeople. How Moses listens to every word! Then on two tables, or tablets, of stone, God gives Mosesten commandments. This is one of the greatest gifts Godever gave men. It shows us \That we ought to do, and whatwe ought not to do. That is what commandment means. Then God said, If you keep My commandments — dothem — I will bless you. That was the covenant, or prom-ise, He made this time. Did Israel wait below in quiet prayer? No, children, they were a wicked people! When Mosescomes down from the mountain, he hears them sing anddance about a golden calf they have made. Just like theheathen Egyptians used to do. When Moses sees the calf, hebecomes angry and breaks the two tables of stone againstthe rocks. But God afterwards gave him two other tableslike the first. Why did the people act so wickedly? Why not wait forGods covenant of the Law! But such are our hearts. Weneed Gods forgiveness every day, and help to keep His com-mandments. Ex. 19, 20, 32.

In those times they called a church Tabernacle. It wasreally a beautiful tent. When Moses was on the mountain,God showed him how to make the Tabernacle, and what toput into it. Come, let us look around and see what we find. There is Mount Sinai. Here is a broad stretch of land.What is this fence, like a curtain hung on posts ? That is thefence around the yard of the Tabernacle! Let us go into theyard, or court. What is that large altar over there in themiddle? The Altar of Burnt-offering, where lambs are of-fered. And, look, that big bowl over there? The priestswash in it, before they go into the Tabernacle. Ah, there is the Tabernacle, the beautiful large tent! There are two rooms in it. The first room is the HolyPlace. In it are a golden candlestick, or lampstand, an altarand a table wit
